Chapter 893
Meredith, on the other hand, was never a match for Josiah.
Meredith got up from the chair. She held the envelope and headed to the door.
“Miss Meredith, where are you going?” Goldie followed her.
“To look for him.” Meredith’s hand was on the doorknob when she paused and turned around to say to Goldie,
“Don’t let Charlie know about this first. I’ll have to understand the situation.”
“Okay, Miss Meredith,” Goldie reminded her, “but Mister Charlie is just downstairs. How are you planning to tell
him?”
“T’UL…think about it.”
Meredith and Goldie went downstairs together. Charlie was sitting by the window of the living area reading. When

“Meredith, are you heading out?” Charlie asked.
Meredith had already collected her thoughts when she was upstairs. She smiled and walked over to him.” Charlie, I
haven’t seen Nia for a few days. I want to go and see her.”
“Isn’t she still at school?”
“Yes, I’ll see her during lunch.”
Ever since she got injured, she did not see Nia because she did not want Nia to worry about her.
When she saw the suspicion in Charlie’s eyes, Meredith added, “Charlie, rest well at home. I’ll be back soon.”
“Hmm, Meredith, be safe,” Charlie said, “also, come home earlier.”
Meredith and Goldie got into the car together before letting out a sigh of relief.
She thought that Charlie would not let her go.
When Goldie saw Meredith in this state, she said with sympathy, “Miss Meredith, ever since Mister Charlie got
injured, it has been tiring for you.”
Meredith looked at her and buckled her seatbelt. “No, it’s more tiring for Charlie.”
“But you are still young. What if Charlie stays this way?
“He will get better.”
Meredith did not know if she was consoling Goldie or herself.
Meredith has never faced any obstructions when she entered Shelby Group. She headed to Josiah’s office, yet she
was stopped in the path by a new secretary.
“Miss, Mister Josiah is inside with a client. Please wait for a while before entering,” The secretary said while
measuring her up condescendingly.
Clearly, the secretary has treated her as a bitch that often harassed Josiah.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What client could be that important?” Meredith did not care which client Josiah was meeting with. She wanted to
run in straightaway to settle the score with him.
“All clients are important to Mister Josiah,” The secretary continued looking at her condescendingly.”
Miss, if you insist on going in, don’t blame me for calling security.”
“Megan, let Miss Meredith enter,” Yoseph heard what Megan said when he returned from the washroom.
“Mister Yoseph, she…”
Before Megan could say anything else, Yoseph interrupted her, “Mister Josiah has said before that Miss Meredith
doesn’t need a booking or informing him. Just take her to the office straight away.”
Yoseph then turned to Meredith and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Meredith, Megan is new to the secretary department.”
Megan was instantly nervous. “I’m sorry, Miss Meredith. I must be blind for not recognizing you. I’m truly sorry.”
Meredith was never the arrogant and unreasonable type. Naturally, she would not mind.
“It’s fine. It’s your job.”
“Thank you, Miss Meredith.”
Looking at Meredith walking toward Josiah’s office, Megan wiped away the sweat on her face. She softly lamented,
“Miss Meredith has quite a good temper.”
