Chapter 289
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.

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. I want to be
alone.” Zade had no other choice. Before leaving, he said, “Take care of yourself and give me a call if there’s
anything that you need.”
Meredith said nothing and simply buried her face in her lap. Seeing how her body was trembling as she cried her
heart out, Zade felt even more guilty. He gave a light pat on her head and finally walked out of the room. At the
sound of the doors closing, Meredith slowly lifted up her head and fixed her gaze on the shattered pieces of the
vase on the floor. She picked up a sharp broken piece of porcelain vase and cut her wrist… Even though the Shelby
Group had gotten rid of almost all the news on the internet, Josiah was still being secretly followed by reporters
whenever he left the house. 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?”
