osiah said, “But I need you to promise me that you‘d be well–behaved and you won‘t run away as you
did before.” “Okay, I promise.”
“We‘ll leave in a bit then.”
“Mm okay,” Meredith nodded happily and got up from the bed and asked, “Joe, are we going to stay
there? How many days will we be staying? Do I need to pack anything?” “It‘s up to you.” “I want to
spend a few nights there!” Meredith rushed into her walk–in closet and started picking out clothes that
she liked.
“I should pack several nice outfits!”
Josiah walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist from behind.
Staring at the white dress in her hands, he said, “It might get a little cold and the ocean breeze might
be strong.
This dress might be too thin for you.”
“I can wear a coat,” Meredith pulled out a knitted coat and said, “this will do, right?”
“This one seems better.” Josiah picked out a khaki–colored trench coat.
“This should do a better job in keeping you warm.”.
Meredith frowned.
“I don‘t want this.This won‘t go well with my white dress.”
“What about this one?” Josiah pointed to another dark–colored trench coat.
“But I still prefer this one.” Meredith insisted on wearing the knitted coat.
Josiah had no other choice but to leave her be.
Durham City was not located too far from the Shelby mansion.
novelbinIt took roughly an hour‘s drive to reach.
It was not crowded at the resort as it had just recently opened and Josiah had given orders to the
servants to keep an eye on Meredith.
Because Jenny had not been taking good care of Meredith, Josiah did not bring Jenny along for this
trip but brought along two young servants instead.
After settling down in the resort, Josiah got ready for a meeting.
Before he left, he looked at Meredith who was on the balcony, and walked toward her.
From what she remembered, this was the first time she was on a vacation and the first time she had
seen such a picturesque scene.
Meredith was in the middle of taking pictures.
Meredith, who wore a long white dress, looked especially like a fairy, glistening under the sun.
“Edith, I‘m stepping out for a moment.
Be good while I‘m gone,” Josiah said to her.Meredith turned around and said to him, “Are you going to the meeting?”
“Yes and I‘ll be back within an hour.”
“If so, can I take a stroll by the beach?” Meredith pointed to the two servants and said, “I‘ll
bring Yuna along.”
Josiah hesitated and said, “I‘ll go with you once I‘m back.
You can get something to eat downstairs and take a stroll in the garden.”
“Why?” Meredith was disappointed.
“Why can‘t I take a walk by the beach?”
“Because I want to go with you.” Josiah walked over to her, pulled her into a hug, and kissed her.
“What‘s the point of going to the beach with Yuna? It‘s not romantic at all.”
Meredith turned to look at the ocean and thought that Josiah was right.
“Alright, I‘ll wait till you come back then.”
“That‘s my girl,” Josiah kissed her forehead and added, “my girl is the best.”
Meredith pushed him away gently.
“Go on and get to your meeting.
Come back to me as soon.as you‘re done with the meeting.”
“Seems like I have to take back what I said.” Josiah chuckled and put his face close to Meredith.
“Give me a kiss before I go.”
Meredith planted a kiss on his cheeks.
It was only then Josiah was willing to go.
After Josiah left, Meredith went downstairs to get some food to eat.
