Chapter 254
Meredith pretended that she did not see Ysabelle and walked right past her. “Stop right there!” Ysabelle yelled out to her.
“Yena is in the VIP ward on the top floor. Whether you wish to butter her up or want to cause her harm, please proceed to the top floor,” Meredith stopped in her tracks, turned to look at Ysabelle, and added, “and if you’re here to harm me, you’ve picked the wrong day.”
Looking at Meredith’s cold expression, Ysabelle simply pulled into a smile. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to harm you,” said Ysabelle, “I’m just here to warn you that Josiah’s grandmother already believes that you’re a prostitute and you can forget about relying on her for help. That baby of yours and Nia will soon be gone because their father would not allow them to live.”
Meredith froze.
She suddenly realized that Josiah’s grandmother was Nia’s only help. So why had she not thought of asking Josiah’s grandmother for help?
“Josiah is only letting you keep the baby, for now, to stop his grandmother from forcing him into a marriage. Once she returns to Delmas City, trust me, he will then get rid of your baby.” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
She then added, “So I’ll advise you to not do anything rash or stupid because it’ll only hurt yourself.”
“Thank you for the reminder. I know what I should do now,” Meredith beamed at her.
Ysabelle was slightly taken aback by Meredith’s response. She wondered if Meredith had finally lost it.
She caught up to Meredith and grabbed her wrist. “Did I say you can leave?”
Meredith came to a stop, glanced at her arm, and then took out her phone and dialed a number.
Ysabelle thought that Meredith was going to call the cops and wanted to tell her to save her efforts but instead, she heard Josiah’s cynical voice from the phone saying, “Meredith Leighton, are you finally giving up on pretending to be high
Ysabelle was startled and let go of her grip around Meredith’s arm. Meredith glanced sideways at her and responded, “Mister Josiah, if you wish for me to cooperate with you on the matter involving your grandmother, could you please have your confidante leave me alone?” Ysabelle’s face distorted in anger. “What did you say?” It was obvious that Josiah had never treated Ysabelle as his confidante.
“I’m saying that your confidante, Ysabelle, is out here to pick a fight with me again. I think you know better that Ysabelle has been wanting to kill our child and for the sake of our baby’s safety, don’t you think that you should do something as the father?”
Ysabelle could not hold back anymore and cried out, “Don’t listen to her, Josiah. I have never thought of getting rid of your child. I am here to see Yena…” “Yeah? But she’s currently at the ob-gyn department on the fifth floor and she does not seem like she is going to let me go.”
“You’re spewing nonsense, Meredith!” Ysabelle seethed in rage.
“Anyway, if anything happens to me today, you’d know who to look for, wouldn’t you, Mister Josiah?”
Meredith then ended the call.
Putting back the phone in her pocket, Meredith glanced at Ysabelle. “So? Are you going to continue with your plans?” Meredith called Josiah because she could already guess what Ysabelle was up to. Ysabelle must have wanted to start an argument with her, then use the opportunity to push her, making it look like it was an accident. With just a slip, Meredith could easily have a miscarriage. Ysabelle’s face
twisted in anger and humiliation. But she could only take a step back for now. Glaring at Meredith, she seethed, “You’re something else, aren’t you, Meredith? Who knew that you’d be shameless enough to rely on Josiah!” “Well, Josiah is the father of my child, I don’t see why not?”
“And that depends on how much longer you can keep the child!” Ysabelle seethed, turned around, and stormed away. It was only then did Meredith sighed in relief. She was glad that she came up with the idea at that moment.
