“Then, take me to the hospital to see the doctor right now!” Meredith said and pulled him along
“Edith, we can‘t do it now.” Josiah pulled her back.
“Why? Why can‘t we?” Meredith‘s every word was in an aggressive tone.
Josiah could only patiently explain, “Because you just got hurt. If you were to undergo any surgery right now, it would be dangerous, so, let‘s wait for a while before going, alright?”
“No! I don‘t want to wait! I don‘t want to see myself being so ugly!” Meredith grabbed Josiah by his clothes and
shook him hard. She screamed, “Josiah, why won‘t you help me? Are you doing thison purpose? Don‘t you like me? Do you want me to be ugly forever?”
Josiah saw how Meredith was getting more and more agitated, her screams getting
louder. He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Sure enough, Meredith quieted down. She struggled in his arms for a while before
she stopped moving
Under his kisses, she calmed down gradually. Her hands grabbing his clothes also
loosened… Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
From resistance to reciprocating, it took less than half a minute. Ever since they met, she has never been subdued by his kiss that easily before nor has she reciprocated
his kiss so passionately either.
Josiah was elated inside.
“Edith, no matter how ruined your face is, you are the prettiest in my heart.” He lowered his head and gently pecked a kiss on her left cheek “Let‘s not fight, please?“.
Meredith looked at him in a daze. She asked, “Are you for real? You won‘t find me disgusting?”
“No. How could I?”
“But you look so good, and I look so ugly.”
“We‘re husband and wife, why do we need to care about how we look? As long as we like it.” He smiled and pinched her nose. “Don‘t call yourself ugly anymore, please?”
Meredith touched her face. She still felt upset. Looking at Josiah’s gorgeous face, she could not help but ask, “Joe, why would you like such an ugly person like me?” “Didn‘t I already say? You don‘t look ugly at all to me. I don‘t judge a book by its cover. Shouldn‘t you be happy about that?” “But I like you because you look good,” Meredith said
seriously.
“Is that so? So, if one day I were to ruin my face, would you not like me anymore?”
“Of course not.” Meredith put her hand against his mouth. “Don‘t say things like that.”
“So, liking someone has nothing to do with beauty.” Josiah took her hand off his mouth and kissed it.
Meredith thought for a while and said, “But if I go out like this, others will laugh at me.” “Don‘t worry. With me around, no one would dare to laugh at you.” “They were secretly laughing behind my back.”
“Then…” Josiah recalled back when she was performing on stage. He said, “Then, every time we head out, we‘ll put on a pretty butterfly mask, how about that?”
“Are you sure?”
“Hmm. Matching it with your favorite white dress, you would be very pretty.” “Then, you have to buy me many butterfly masks and white dresses.” “Okay.” Meredith finally smiled. Josiah smiled too. Even Lily, who was standing by the door, sighed in relief. She never thought that her high and mighty, aloof boss would be so good at coaxing another woman.
After coaxing Meredith, Josiah picked up the phone on the floor and had a look.
When he saw the photo of them, he finally understood why Meredith would suddenly
scream.
