Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 296

Margot’s cheeks were red from the slap, She nodded, tears Mowing, “Not only did fostali aut off all ties with the Leightons, but he also forced your father to sell the Leiphtons to him, if not, he will expose your father’s wrongdoings in the past,” “What wrongdoings?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Things that happened in the business. Mostly of him manipulating others, Josiah got ahold of the information somehow.” Margot held Ysabelle’s hands tightly and said frantically, ” the way, Ysabelle, didn’t you say that Josiah wanted you to get pregnant to surprise his grandmother? Did he sleep with you last night? If he did, that means you still mean something to him. Can you go and beg him…” “Mom!” Ysabelle interrupted her mutterings. At the mention of the night before, Ysabelle got even angrier and more upset. She felt worse than being slapped by her father.

“Ysabelle, what happened?” Margot looked at Ysabelle’s reddened eyes and asked concernedly, “What happened? Did Josiah not sleep with you last night? But the hickeys on your body…”

Margot pulled Ysabelle’s collar down. There were so many marks, they at least had a passionate night! Ysabelle immediately pulled her collar back up, covering herself. Even if she was facing her mother, she was embarrassed to admit that she was defiled by a disgusting man.

“Mom, stop thinking about it. Josiah would never help us.” Ysabelle bit her lips and looked at Margot. “I think we should just stop caring about the company. Our lives are more at stake.”

“What do you mean?”

“Josiah is beating himself up over Nia’s death. He has a one-hundred-and-eighty degree change in attitude toward Meredith too. He would surely dig into every little detail.” From his attitude and behavior on how vicious Josiah was toward her the night before, he would be merciless. Therefore, at that moment, what she needed to do the most was to care for her life, not about the company.

Margot panicked when she heard what Ysabelle said. She paled. She asked, “What should we do? Will he find out that it was you who pushed Yena down the stairs? Also Yoel’s incident, also …what you did to that little bastard and Yena. Leah’s death…my God!”

Listing it all out, Margot was so afraid she did not dare to continue listing it.

When they did those things in the past, they did not realize how terrible it was. It was until when Josiah stopped believing Ysabelle did they start to fear the consequences.

Ysabelle cried in fear too. She asked her mother for help. “Mom, what should we do? Will I go to prison?”

“You don’t…don’t worry. If Josiah has the evidence, he would have long gotten the police to arrest you,” Margot consoled Ysabelle, at the same time consoling herself. “But he will slowly look into it.”

“As long as Meredith doesn’t tell, he wouldn’t be able to find out.” Margot wiped away the tears in her eyes and said frantically, “Why don’t we go and beg Meredith for help? If she would forgive us, Josiah wouldn’t come at us.”

Begging Meredith?

Ysabelle shook her head instinctively. “No!” It was always Meredith who was kneeling in front of her asking her for forgiveness. Asking her to beg Meredith for forgiveness? She will never do it!

Margot naturally understood Ysabelle. She said angrily, “Ysabelle, look at what state we are in! This is no time for saving face!”

“Mom, this is not about saving face. It’s mainly Meredith…” Ysabelle bit her lips. “After all, we killed her mother and daughter. How could she forgive us? How could she speak up for us? Maybe Josiah is coming at us so quickly because of her.” Margot knew that the chances were slim.
