Chapter 579 There was a flicker in her expression but she quickly regained her composure.
“But there was a difference between being forced and doing it willingly, right? If not, you wouldn’t be upset
whenever I rejected and resisted you.”
Josiah thought about her words then nodded. “Make sense. So are you saying that you want to make the first move
today?”
“Bingo. So do you want me to?”
“That is of course.”
With a smile on his face, he asked, “But why not tell me the condition first? What if I can’t fulfill your condition?
Then it’d be a waste of effort, wouldn’t it?”
Her hand that was moving across his chest froze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJosiah was right. What if he would not agree to her conditions?
After a moment of hesitation, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and smiled even more seductively, “I
really can’t hide anything from you, can I? You’re right that I do have a favor to ask of you.
“I heard that you’re holding Quinley Allison responsible for poisoning you and for that, you’ve canceled the
collaboration with Allison Group and gave it to Young Group, am I right?”
Josiah nodded. “Yeah. And do you have an opinion on this?”
“I am a person of my word. I was the one who poisoned the soup and it was me who made you drink the soup. So
why are you holding Quinley accountable?”
“So, you came all the way here just to plead for Quinley? And you’re willing to offer yourself to the man that you
resent and despise the most just for Quinley Allison?” Josiah could not read Meredith’s intentions.
Meredith nodded. “Quinley is my best friend and I don’t want to see her end up like Maeve just because of me.”
“I’ve checked the CCTV recordings and it was her who brought you the soup.” Josiah went on flatly, “I might have
let her off the hook if she was coming for me, but she was planning to poison you.” What did he mean?
Was he trying to say that her life was more important than his?
Impossible!
Meredith hurriedly shook away the thought. There was no way that Josiah would value her life more than his. He
simply needed her to stay by her side. “But I was the one who added poison into the soup,” Meredith insisted. “You
were under surveillance for twenty-four hours. How could you possibly get your hands on the poison?”
“I was the one who asked Quinley to get me the poison but she did not know why I needed them.”
“Is that so?” Josiah was gritting his teeth as he seethed, “Meredith Leighton, why can’t you just lie to me and tell me
that it was Quinley who poisoned me and not you? “Do you know that hearing this from you would work better than
you offering your body to me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJosiah would rather know that it was never her intention to poison him but Meredith was admitting to everything,
not even caring to lie to him. Hanging her head low, she said softly, “I was the one who gave you the soup and had
you drink it. If I lie and say that I have nothing to do with it, you’d say that I’m full of lies again.”
“You…” Josiah was wordless with rage.
Meredith knew that she had angered Josiah again. She added urgently, “Sir, I already promised you that I won’t
ever hurt you again. So can you please forgive me this time? Forgive Quinley and the Allison Group too?”
“1…” She got on her toes and kissed him on the cheek. “You always wanted me to make the first move, didn’t you?
I can do it for you.”
For the sake of using Quinley to find Yulia, Meredith was willing to do anything
She then moved her lips slowly to his lips. Meredith knew that Josiah always had a soft spot for her. He would always
give in to her whenever she made the first move.
But Josiah was not swayed by her today. Instead, he pushed her away frustratedly and fumed,” Meredith Leighton, I
like it when you make the first move because it makes me feel accomplished. But this doesn’t mean that I would
like it every time.”
