Chapter 1146

Meredith said angrily, "Josiah, I can buy this kind of bag myself, can you not speak so badly?"

"Sorry Meredith, I'm just worried that you were bought off by Grandma Shelby and don't want to remarry me."

It turned out that he was so aggressive because of this.

Meredith looked at him and could not help but feel a little moved.

No wonder Mrs. Shelby came to her today. It turned out that she encountered a hard nail in Josiah's place.

Josiah looked at her and then smiled, "It seems that Mrs. Shelby has said a lot of ugly words just now, Meredith, you

won’t be changing your mind I’m sure?"

Meredith glanced at Mrs. Shelby and said calmly, "No, Mrs. Shelby didn't say anything bad either."

She acted so sensible, well under Mrs. Shelby's watchful gaze, she deliberately pretended to be sensible.

It's no wonder that Josiah and Charlie both love her so much. Her sensibility was just really confusing at times.

Mrs. Shelby took a deep breath and said to Josiah as elegantly as possible, "Josiah, is it really appropriate for you to

speak to me with this attitude? I have traveled thousands of miles back to the country and I insisted you to marry

Ivy regardless of your disgust. Is it for myself? Or for poor Cooper?"

"I don't have to worry about food or clothes now, and I don't expect you to teach me to respect me and call me

'Mom'. I just want Cooper's illness to get better. Is this too much?"

Saying that, Mrs. Shelby's eyes turned red.

Seeing her like this, Josiah's demeanor was less tense.

"You began to abandon me when I was in my teens. You ignored me for so many years and finally returned, and

now you force me to marry a woman I don't love. You keep saying that it was for Cooper, but you never thought

about me. Is this fair? Am I meant to swallow my feelings?"

"Josiah, do you think I wanted to abandon you back then? If it wasn't for the Shelby family stopping me, I would

have left with you long ago."

"Why did you have to leave?" Josiah stared at her and asked.

Mrs. Shelby looked at him and hesitated for a while before saying, " Josiah, I don't want to destroy your father's

image."

"What image does my father have in my heart?" Josiah sneered, " He just abandoned me a month or two later than

my biological mother."

"Do you hate him?"



"Of course, I not only hate him, but also you." Josiah smiled sadly. "I haven’t even had the chance to settle the score

between you and I for what you have done to me, and now you want to stir up new strife between US and cause

me to hate you even further.”

"Hate."

"To try to break up our family of three, aren’t you trying to make me hate you?" Josiah grabbed Meredith's little

hand and announced to Mrs. Shelby, "Mrs. Shelby will tell you the truth, I worked so hard to get Meredith back. If

you force her away again, I will never see you again in my life."

Mrs. Shelby was so hurt that she was speechless.

After a long while, she said, "Josiah, you and Ivy grew up together and have similar interests and hobbies. I think

you will be happy when you marry her."

"Just like you didn't want to marry Meredith at the beginning, didn't you fall in love with her later?" Mrs. Shelby

looked at him. " Also, Cooper really needs treatment, you must think about it carefully."

"Don't worry, Mrs. Shelby, I will find a way to cure Cooper."

Josiah obviously did not want to continue arguing with her, so he changed his tone. "Mrs. Shelby should go back to

rest first. If you have any questions in the future, please come to me directly. Don't bother Meredith anymore."

Even if Mrs. Shelby wanted Josiah to marry Ivy again, she could not stand the indifferent treatment of Josiah.

After Mrs. Shelby left, Meredith said to Josiah, "If Nia knew that your attitude was so firm, she would be very happy,

and she wouldn’t have had to cry so sadly last night."

"What about you? Are you happy?" Josiah stared at her and asked.

Meredith thought about it and said, "It's a lie to say that I’m not happy, but..."

She originally wanted to say that his attitude should not be so pointed, directed and hurtful, after all, Mrs. Shelby

was his biological mother.
