Chapter 1068
Even though Goldie understood why Meredith would not want to attend, still, she felt that it was a pity. “But this is
such a good opportunity for you. And besides, after the incident at the mall and the love story that was posted on
the internet, the public seems to be more accepting of your relationship with Mister Josiah. Mister Josiah and you
have even garnered some fans.” “What love story?” Meredith was confused. “The one that Mister Josiah had
posted, about your love story with him. Though at first read, you can still feel his usual intimidating vibes, what he
wrote was really touching. That is why so many people had decided to take you and Mister Josiah’s side.” “Where
was it posted? Show me,” Meredith urged. Looking at how Meredith was surprised, Goldie asked, “Huh? Didn’t you
post the story together?”
“No. I have never posted anything like that.” “Then Mister Josiah did not show you the post before or even after
uploading it?” Goldie asked curiously as she went through the tablet, looking for the post. “No!” Meredith’s face

Goldie found the post quickly and passed the table to Meredith.
Meredith took a quick read at the post but the expression on her face slowly turned dark.
Goldie asked carefully, “Ma’am, are you okay? Is there something wrong with the post? Personally, I think that…it’s
had a good effect on the public.”
Meredith inhaled deeply and handed the tablet back to Goldie. “I’m going out.” “Where are you going, ma’am?
Don’t tell me you’re going to the Shelby Group.”
Ignoring her, Meredith charged straight ahead to the lift.
What surprised her was that she was stopped from entering the building when usually, she would be able to enter
and leave the building as she pleased.
“Miss Meredith, our apologies, but you’re not allowed to enter without an appointment.
Meredith did not like to use her status on anyone but seeing how the employee at the front desk was being difficult,
she then said, “I am Meredith Leighton, and I have something urgent that I need to talk to with Mister Josiah.”
“Sir had given orders that he would only meet with those who had made an appointment, including you, Miss
Meredith,” The employee replied, “I’m sorry, Miss Meredith. I’m just doing my job.”
Meredith was still skeptical. “When did he give such orders?”
“Just yesterday.”
Meredith recalled how Josiah had been acting around her for the past two days.
Could it be that he was purposely targeting her? If that was the case, Meredith did not think that it was right for her
to put the employee in a difficult situation.
“Please excuse me, I’ll give Mister Josiah a call.”
“Sure, Miss Meredith, Please take a seat right here.” The employee then walked her to the resting area in the lobby.
Meredith sat down on a couch and called Josiah on his phone.
But he was not answering.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe suddenly remembered that Josiah told Nia earlier this morning that he had an important meeting today.
But Meredith guessed that the meeting must have ended a long time ago.
She checked the time and called his number again.
Back then, it did not matter what Josiah was doing, he would immediately pick up his phone as long as she called
him first.
At the thought that Josiah’s attitude had changed, Meredith had no choice but to call Mister Yoseph.
Mister Yoseph, on the other hand, answered his phone quickly. “Hi Miss Meredith, are you looking for Sir?” “Yes, I
am. May I know if Josiah is still in a meeting?” “Oh no. The meeting had already ended long ago.” “Then why isn’t
he answering my call?”
“Is he not picking up your call?” Mister Yoseph paused and guessed, “perhaps it’s because he’s been feeling on the
low lately and he doesn’t really check his personal phone.”
