Chapter 422

Chapter 422Chapter 422 Noon came and Meredith returned to the mansion with Caden. She prepared some fruits
for Caden and left him in the living room as he watched the TV. Meredith then started making dinner in
the kitchen. As usual, she had prepared Josiah’s favorite dishes and had waited for Josiah to get home
from work before having dinner,
She then served some pasta onto his plate and made sure Josiah had settled down at the dining table.
After all of that, she then immediately rushed to Caden.
“Caden darling, here are some beef meatballs. Try some and see if you like it,” She put two pieces of
meatballs onto his plate and went on, “I’ll make more next time if you like them.”
It was the same sentence again. Josiah reminded her, “Meredith, you have been saying the same thing
repeatedly every time we have dinner.”
“Because I’d only make them again if you like then, if not I won’t,” Meredith was puzzled, “is there
anything wrong with that?” “Mm…not really.” Meredith continued feeding Caden and only started eating
after Caden had finished eating. But she roughly took a few mouthfuls of the pasta and got up from the
dining table. Josiah grabbed her by her wrist and stopped her from leaving. “Why are you eating so
little?”
“I’m done eating. I want to keep Caden accompanied.” “Edith, there’s something that I need to talk to
you about,” said Josiah.
“Let’s talk after I put Caden to bed. I too have something to talk to you about.” Meredith then walked out
of the dining hall.
Josiah was speechless.Josiah concluded that Meredith only said words like ‘you are the most important to me’ to please him.
He actually had to wait until Caden went to bed before Meredith would talk to him.
Josiah could not bring himself to spend days like this anymore. He quietly finished his dinner and
headed upstairs to continue on with his work
Back then when he worked on his study, Meredith would visit him to check on him. But after Caden
showed up, he hardly even saw Meredith anymore. The urge to send Caden away snowballed even
more. By the time Meredith got back to their bedroom after putting Caden to sleep, Josiah had almost
fallen asleep waiting for her. “Joe, you’re still up?” Meredith was surprised.
Josiah looked up from the magazine in his hands and glanced at her. “What a good wife you are, to
keep your husband waiting for you.” “Were you waiting for me?” “What do you think?” “Why haven’t you
showered then?” “I was waiting for you.”
“Waiting for me to shower together?”
“It’s been a while since we last showered together. Would you not want that, Mrs. Shelby?”
Meredith suddenly got shy under his heated stare. “I…”
Josiah put down the magazine in his hand, walked toward her, and lifted her chin so that she was
looking at him. “What do you plan to say? If you knew better, you would have taken off your clothes and
waited for me there.”
He then lifted her in his arms and walked into the shower room.
Wrapping her hands around his shoulder, she suddenly thought of something. “Right, didn’t you say
that you have something to talk to me about? What is it?” “We can talk after showering.” “What is it
exactly?” Meredith got even more curious.Josiah put her down on the floor, removed her clothes, and put her into the bathtub that was already
filled with a tub of warm water. He then realized that Meredith was staring at him, still waiting for his
answer.novelbin
