Chapter 575 Meredith was slightly out of breath because it was hard to breathe while feeding Josiah.
“I didn’t ask you to sit on my lap and you’re sitting too close,” Josiah responded. Meredith instantly understood what
he was implying and inched further away from him. She then continued feeding him by mouth. Meredith had to
admit that the soup tasted horrible.
After a few rounds, Meredith felt disgusted and almost wanted to throw up. Looking at how she was frowning, Josiah
teased, “And I thought only I thought the soup tasted weird.”
Meredith glared at him. Josiah did it on purpose.
He purposely made her share the horrible-tasting soup with him. “You bastard, Josiah Shelby!” Meredith cursed
softly
Josiah found her ridiculous. “You’re the one who made the soup, shouldn’t you be the one who’s the bastard?”

your mouth.” He then forcefully pressed his lips against her as he slowly parted her lips and started making his way
into her mouth.
Meredith was at loss for words.
Meredith wondered if she had dug her own grave.
Not only was she not able to hear from Doctor Joshua, but she fell into his trap.
Luckily for Meredith, Josiah did not ‘torment’ her for the entire night. He simply fell asleep with Meredith in his arms.
Josiah could only sleep soundly with Meredith in his arms. He did not care if Meredith would try to kill him again.
This one was also one of the reasons why Josiah forced Meredith to stay by his side. The next morning, Meredith
woke up early as always to make breakfast for Josiah. She also stayed next to him until he finished his breakfast
before sending him out the door.
Before Josiah left the house, he reminded her, “Don’t go running around. And don’t let me catch you meeting other
guys.”
Meredith thought that Josiah was simply a possessive freak
“Don’t worry, I am not in the mood to be meeting men,” Meredith scoffed coldly, “plus, unlike you, I don’t attract a
lot of people. It must be tiring huh? Getting rid of one after another.”
Studying her cold expression, Josiah arched his brows. “Could it be that Mrs. Shelby is being
jealous?”
“If that makes you happy, sure, go ahead and think of it that way.” Meredith turned around and walked up the
stairs. Watching as Meredith walked away, Josiah pulled into a smile. But as Meredith had said, Josiah’s ladies were
showing up continuously Quinley had shown up shortly after Josiah had left.
But Quinley was here to see Meredith Without any hesitation, Meredith rejected seeing her.” Tell her that I’m not

“But Miss Quinley would not stop crying and she would not tell us what’s going on. She is simply accusing you didn’t
keeping your word. She even said that she wouldn’t go until you agree to see her,” Jenny replied Meredith hesitated
and finally asked Jenny to let Quinley into the house
Rage gripped Quinley as soon as she saw Meredith. “Meredith Leighton, didn’t you say that you would keep your
word? Why did you lie to me?” “What did I lie to you about?”
“You promised that if I tell you about the name of the poison, you’d take the blame for me.”
“And I did.”
“You did?” Quinley laughed, “Seems like you’re the type that would lie with your eyes open huh? How could you say
to my face that you’ve taken the blame when you sit around and do nothing when Josiah is avenging himself?”
“Josiah is getting his revenge on you? Are you sure about this?” Sitting on the couch, Meredith was looking at her as
she mocked, “After all, this is not the only bad thing that you’ve done And I’ve only promised you that I’d take the
blame for the poisoning”
