Chapter 776 “Meredith, there’s something that I need to say to you,” Josiah stared at her and said. Meredith though
rejected her coldly, “I’ve said I needed to say last night, and as for the rest.” “I haven’t finished saying what I
needed to say last night.” Josiah grabbed her by her wrist and dragged her with him as he walked out the door.
with her back pushed back against the wall, Meredith stared at her coldly and seethed, “Josiah Shelby, stop being
such a domineering asshole. You’re just being lame.”
Josiah shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, I have no plans of forcing myself onto you. I just want to talk to you
about me and Yena.”
“I’ve already made it clear that I don’t want to hear about your old love story!” At the mention of Yena, Meredith
felt anger rush through her.
“Fine, let me rephrase that. I want to talk to you about our past.” “Our past is filled only with pain and suffering,
what is there to talk about?” Meredith turned her head sideways, avoiding his gaze.

Sweet Reminiscence. It really does help in reminding people of the good times.”
Meredith was finally slightly interested in what he had to say. She slowly stopped resisting him.
“I’ve always been scared of the water ever since I fell into the pool when I was younger and I’ve never taken any
swimming lessons. There was this one time when I passed by a river, I fell into it as it was raining hard and the road
was slippery. I remember the water covering my head and it was Yena who jumped into the river to save me and
pulled me out from the river. If it wasn’t for Yena, I would have been dead.”
Meredith remained silent.
It was her who had saved his life.
For the sake of saving him, Meredith nearly lost her life and she was hospitalized for a month.
But she did not say anything and simply nodded. “Are you done?”
Josiah could see from the flicker of mixed feelings across her face that Meredith had remembered the incident. But
Meredith did not correct him that it was actually her who had saved him
And Josiah was slightly disappointed by her reaction,
Seeing how she did not care to correct him, it seemed like she really did want to cut ties with him.
“And that was why I have always been good to Yena, simply because she saved my life, and I was indebted to her.
“Even though after I found out that Yena was the one who poisoned herself and put the blame
on you, I did not punish her like how I punished Quinley and Maeve. But instead, I gave her a bungalow and some
money and I’ve cut ties with her.
“If I hadn’t received the perfume from you last night, I would never have realized that I’ve remembered the wrong
person all this while.”
Meredith had initially made up her mind to not be swayed by whatever he said, but hearing
this, she could not hold herself back and asked, “What do you mean?”
“I remember clearly that the girl who saved me back then had this perfume smell on her.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeredith thought that Josiah had a good memory.
She was, indeed, wearing this perfume back then and he actually remembered.
“Edith, it was you who saved my life but all this while I thought that it was Yena, and that was why I’ve been nice to
her,” Josiah suddenly grabbed Meredith by her arms and went on urgently, “if I had known that it was you, I would
never have treated you coldly after we got married, I wouldn’t have doubted you, and I would never have hurt
you…”
Josiah paused as he tried to hold himself back from exploding in frustration.
“Edith, can you please give me one more chance? Can you please trust me one more time?”
Looking at the conflicted look in his eyes, Meredith saw that Josiah was sincere and he was regretting
But it was already all too late.
“Mister Josiah, it is a moving story, I must say. But there is one thing that I don’t think you understand, and that is
feelings are not a thing that you can pick up and let go of easily.”
She pushed away his hand and said, “It is true that I’ve loved you once, but it is also true that I don’t love you
anymore. So, please let me go.”
Meredith paused before going on, “And you don’t have to worry about Nia. I won’t stop her
from seeing you and she will still be your daughter.”
