Zade wrapped his hands over hers and said, “I’m really sorry, Merelyn. I shouldn’t have drugged you. I didn’t know that you needed the baby to save Nia, I’m sorry…”
Meredith shook her head.
What was the use of saying sorry now? Other than wanting to have Nia’s ashes back, Meredith wanted nothing else.
Besides, Meredith knew that Nia would not be able to hang on until she birthed the baby either,
Perhaps it was better this way.
This way, she was able to cut ties with Josiah completely. This way, she was able to leave the world without feeling guilty. Seeing how Meredith was not saying anything, Zade then added, “Merelyn, I still meant what I said, about bringing you along with me. Let’s leave this place and start all over again, what do you say?” Meredith shook her head. “No, I don’t want to go anywhere.”
It was too hard to stay alive. She did not want to start over again. She wanted to keep Nia company. She did not want Nia to be left alone. “Zade Brooks, I don’t resent you anymore and you don’t have to feel guilty toward me anymore,” Taking her hands from his grasp, she said, “leave, Zade.” “Merelyn…” “You should go.

Josiah leaned into the car seat, not saying anything. The reporters started following him in his car. Mister Yoseph took a glance at the reporters that were following them and said to Josiah, “Sir, even though the team has gotten rid of all the negative comments, people are still posting it. We might need Miss Meredith to cooperate with us.”
“How is she supposed to cooperate with us in that state of hers?” “You’ve got a point,” Mister Yoseph sighed and added, “if we can’t clarify the thing with Nia, then you should probably pay a visit to Miss Meredith at the hospital.” The internet was criticizing Josiah as being a heartless prick – abandoning his wife and killing his own daughter.
Josiah did not really care much about how people thought of him but he was concerned about the reputation of his company.
Hence, it was important to create an image of him being a good husband. Josiah scoffed bitterly, “Must we do this?”
“Sir, do you still resent Miss Meredith?”
“It’s not about that. It’s just that I think it’s a bit cruel for us to use her when she’s already in this state.”
“Sir,” Mister Yoseph said, “you are going to bring Miss Meredith back to your place, sometime later, right?”
