Chapter 1051 “What happened?”
“Some customers had thrown a fuss at our counter, claiming that we have no rights to showcase our products at
Golding Mall. They even threatened to smash everything every time they saw us putting them on display.” “That is
just absurd!” Goldie fumed, “Golding Mall belongs to the Shelby Group and even Mister Josiah did not have any
opinions on this, who does he think he is to challenge us on this?”
“Exactly,” One of the employees added, “putting aside the relationship between Miss Meredith and Mister Josiah, it
is a given that both companies will soon belong to Miss Nia anyway.”
“Exactly…”
In the middle of the heated discussion, Meredith seethed, “Shut up all of you!”
The crowd immediately shut up and turned to look at her.

Meredith cleared her throat before saying solemnly, “I don’t want to hear either of you talking about this kind of
stuff, especially about my relationship with Mister Josiah.”
“Ma’am, we don’t mean anything,” The employee quickly apologized and said,” we know better about what’s going
on between you and Mister Josiah, we just feel …deeply aggrieved for you.” “There’s nothing to feel sorry about,”
Meredith added bitterly, “just do what you have to.”
In fact, Meredith felt that she did not deserve to feel that she was being treated unfairly.
Even though Josiah kept showing up around her, it was the truth that she was getting involved with Josiah. It was
also a fact that she had hurt Charlie and even somehow caused Charlie’s death.
Meredith knew that she would never be free of those accusations. And that they would stay with her for life.
She stood up from her chair and said, “Get back to your work now, all of you. I have to step out for a while.”
Goldie quickly followed her and asked, “Where are you going, Miss Meredith? Don’t tell me you’re planning to go to
Golding Mall?”
“Yes, I want to check the situation out.” “No, Miss Meredith, you shouldn’t!” Goldie stopped her urgently and said,”
They’ll only criticize you if you show up there. You’ve only just been able to gather yourself, what if…” “Goldie, I am
to be blamed for what happened. You don’t suppose that I keep running away from this, right?” Meredith smiled
bitterly. “I still have to face what’s to come.”
“But…”
“Don’t worry. It’ll be fine, I promise.” She then stepped into the lift. In the lift, Meredith stared at herself in the
mirror. She was dressed in clean-cut formal wear, a pair of high heels, and her hair was in large curly waves.
Meredith was different from who she was two years ago. Even her looks had changed.
But she knew deep down that she was still the old Meredith.

the people that she wanted to protect.
When she showed up at the counter and was immediately welcomed by an egg coming her way, Meredith did not
avoid it and simply closed her eyes. She even stopped the security from interfering. “Ma’am, what did I say? I said
that you shouldn’t come here, didn’t I? These people are just reckless and wild,” Feeling aggrieved, Goldie
complained as she helped to wipe away the egg residue on Meredith’s hair.
“It’s okay.” Meredith took the napkin from Goldie and started cleaning her hair. There was a group of people who
were making a scene. A woman who looked like the leader of the group shouted furiously, “Who are you calling
rude and unreasonable? We are nothing compared to that Leighton b* tch!”
“Exactly! That b*tch had killed our Mister Charlie and she should be condemned to death!”
“Exactly. That Leighton b*tch should get the hell out of Jehovah City! We will never buy perfume from such a
heartless woman!”
“F*ck Sweet Reminiscence! Bring along that perfume of yours and get the hell out of Jehovah City!”
One of the ladies grabbed a perfume bottle on the counter and threw it at Meredith.
Standing still, Meredith was stunned as she did not expect that the lady would throw the bottle at her.
