Chapter 801 That was the first time that Josiah gave her juice, but he was actually there to kill her child. The
impression was so deep that she was frightened when she saw him bringing her juice. “What’s wrong?” Josiah saw
that something was off, and he asked with concern, “Are you feeling unwell?” “No.” She shook her head. She stared
at the juice and said, “Do you remember the last time you brought me freshly squeezed juice?” Josiah did not
expect that she would ask such a question. He was taken aback. Usually, he would never serve her juice. So, he
naturally remembered that time. “I remember.” Josiah nodded and admitted, “Edith, I remember all those things,
but I hope you can forget them.”
“I want to forget it too, but unfortunately…” She shook her head and smiled bitterly. “Forget it, let’s not mention it,

no poison in this glass of juice, you can drink it.”
“No, I’m not thirsty.” Now, she just wanted to finish her work and go back to the company.
When she signed, Josiah noticed the wound on her finger. He reached out and grabbed her little hand, looking at
the wound on it. “What’s wrong with your hand? Why is it hurt?”
“It’s alright, it’s just a little wound.” Meredith instinctively retracted her hand. “Show me.” Josiah clenched his teeth.
“Do you have any medication for it?”
Meredith tugged a few times he did not loosen his grip. She said angrily, “Don’t you think you’re being too
hypocritical, Josiah? You didn’t even blink an eye when I got hurt like that.”
Josiah sighed bitterly, “Edith, can you stop mentioning it? Every time you mention it, your mood will only get worse.”
“I’m sorry, I don’t want to either.” Meredith pulled her hand and said, “It’s just that every time I see you, I can’t help
but think of the past.”
“Is that the reason why you’ve been avoiding me?” “It’s just one aspect.” She said, “More importantly, I’m married
now. It’s not appropriate for me to meet with you so often.”
“Mister Josiah, can you let your legal team come in to complete the formalities?” she urged.
Josiah nodded and called Mister Yoseph.
It was past eleven o’clock when the formalities were completed.
Meredith was about to leave when Josiah suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, “Edith, let’s have lunch together.”
“No, I’ll go back first.” As he expected, she refused without thinking.
“It’s already time for lunch. Anyway, we all have to eat.” Josiah realized it would be even more difficult to have a

“I promised Charlie that I’ll have lunch with him, so I have to rush to the hospital.” “You accompany him every day,
but you can’t just accompany me once?” “Mister Josiah, your words are a bit strange, I don’t understand.” What did
he mean? Was she a tool to be used by him whenever he wanted to? “It’s fine if you don’t understand. I’ll return
the Leightons to you, and we’ve spent so much time here going through the formalities. Shouldn’t we at least have
a meal together?” “Are you asking me to invite you to lunch, Mister Josiah?” Josiah thought for a while and nodded.
“That’s right.” As long as he could eat with her, it did not matter who initiated the invitations. “Okay, let’s eat
another day.” Meredith broke free from his grip. “I have to go back today.”
