Chapter 1221
Mrs. Shelby was already so pissed off that she was speechless. Meredith, on the other hand, whispered into Josiah’s
ear, "Hurry up and shut up. I don't need you to stick up for me."
Josiah, however, said in a serious tone, "You're wrong, Edith. I'm not sticking up for you. I'm sticking up for myself.
"My mother abandoned me when I was ten years old, but she is back again today. She's not back to make up for a
mother's love that she had owed me and also not to enjoy our lives in the future with me. Instead, she is back to
tear my life apart, force me to marry a woman that I don’t love, and then drug me."
He gritted his teeth. "If I had slept with Ivy that night, then what kind of life would be waiting for me in the future? I
would have to go according to her wish, marry Ivy, and then have another child...
"She is such a selfish mother, so why should I still care about her life?"
As she listened to Josiah, Meredith had to admit that he has indeed been quite aggrieved in this matter.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBecause of Cooper's condition and because of Mrs. Shelby's blood pressure, which could raise easily, he could only
endure everything. He could only endure everything with all his might.
However, he was, in fact, also a domineering and self-centered son of a rich family, and he had also been spoiled
by old Madam Shelby and the people around him when he was growing up.
Mrs. Shelby was left at a loss for words by what Josiah had said.
Josiah immediately held Meredith's wrist, turned around, and then walked back to the study.
Meredith did not know what he wanted to do, so she struggled by twisting her wrist and said, "Josiah, what are you
doing? Hurry up and let me go."
"I'm doing what I love to do and what I want to do." while Meredith was still confused, Josiah pinned her back down
on the bed and kissed her very deeply.
The more they did not want him to be together with Meredith, the more he wanted it.
Even if Meredith had just reminded him to not interfere with whatever Mrs. Shelby was to do to her.
Meredith was speechless as she glared at him.
Did he actually still have the mood to do such a thing at such a time? He has gone crazy, has he not?
Josiah took off her clothes very easily, then he said angrily while invading her, "Everybody wants to bully me and
force me, even you as well, even you also forced me together with them!"
Meredith was speechless, she used both her hands to resist him, but she slowly let her hands go while resisting him.
He was right. Even she was forcing him together with Mrs. Shelby and others.
She clearly knew that he did not want to marry Ivy.
Just because she liked Cooper and felt sorry for him, she actually...
Looking at his gaze that was filled with despair, she said apologetically, "Josiah, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have forced
you to marry Ivy."
"Meredith, you're finally saying sorry? Aren't worried about Cooper? Don't you want to be a kind person?" Josiah
sneered while looking down at her from above. "I'm going to be married on the sixth of next month. Didn't you

Meredith suddenly hugged his neck and initiated to kiss him on the lips.
She did not know how to comfort him with words, so she could only use her kiss instead.
Josiah, however, turned his handsome face to the side, and when he stared at her again, his eyes were filled with
fury.
"Meredith, when are you going to start to stand on my side, fight alongside me, and face my mother and others
together with me?"
Meredith looked up at him and said miserably, "Josiah, do I really disappoint you that much?"
"You've truly disappointed me very much," he said.
He was disappointed, but that did not stop him from continuing to tolerate her, spoil her, and let her do as she
wished...
Tears started to well up in Meredith's eyes a little. "I'm sorry..."
"I don't need your apology. I just need you to fight alongside me." Josiah looked down at her. "Meredith, is this
request too much?"
