Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 248

“Why” Meredith looked nervous

Meredith guessed that something was not right when Josiah agreed for her to keep the child.

She guessed that Josiah must be up to no good,

“Because of my grandmother.” Staring at Meredith who was looking at him with that innocent face of hers, Josiah scoffed, “Meredith Leighton, aren’t you waiting for this moment to happen when you tried so hard to get pregnant with my child? Waiting for my grandmother to accept you into the Shelby family? But let me make this clear, even though I respect and care about my grandmother, I would not marry a slag simply because of a child. I will never agree to it, and…”

“Alright,” Meredith cut him off, “you’ve said this over and over again, aren’t you even tired?”

Seeing how his face got darker, she then quickly added, “Don’t think of getting married into the Shelby family, don’t think of meeting your grandmother, don’t let your grandmother know that I’m still alive… see? I’ve got them all memorized.”

Josiah responded, “Good.”

“Don’t worry. Aside from the baby, I don’t want anything else. I wouldn’t want a slag to be my man either.”

“What did you say?”

“Why are you taking it personally when I didn’t even say anything when you said that I was a slag earlier?” Meredith did not worry about going against him after knowing that Josiah needed her help.

“With the child, you must think that you’re something now, huh? Going against me and all!” Josiah wanted to pull away from the IV drip from her hand. Startled, Meredith immediately stopped him from doing so by wrapping her arms around his waist. “I’m sorry, Sir. Please don’t be mad.” “Meredith Leighton, don’t forget where you stand!”

“‘I didn’t.”

“Take your hands away from me!” Josiah seethed in disdain.

Meredith immediately let him go and lay back down in bed. “You should probably head back and get some rest. Don’t want you to be spending too much time with a slag.” She was worried that she might start another fight with Josiah if he stayed any longer.

Josiah fixed his shirt that was crumpled by Meredith.

“Don’t worry, I don’t plan on staying here any longer,” Josiah then added, “my grandma says she wants to meet you and also wants you to get a paternity test. Come up with a way to make sure that she doesn’t recognize you.”

“Your grandma wants to see me? And run a paternity test?” Meredith was taken aback.

“Why? Getting scared?” Josiah fixed his gaze on her belly and said, “Is the child not mine after

all?”

“If that’s what you think then so be it.”

Even though Meredith had met Josiah’s grandmother a lot of times, it had been a long time since they last met, and after the fire, her face was scarred and her voice had gotten a bit hoarse.

Meredith thought that she could get someone to put on some makeup so that Josiah’s grandmother would not recognize her.

“I’ll try my best,” she said.

“And remember that you work at a nightclub.” Inwardly, Meredith was irked at the fact that Josiah forced such an identity onto her simply because he did not want his grandmother to accept her.

“Yes, I work at a nightclub.”

“If my grandmother wants you to return to Delsam City with her…” Before Josiah could even finish his sentence, Meredith said, “Don’t worry, I won’t go. My daughter still needs me.” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Good.” “Is there anything else?”
