Chapter 1058
As soon as she returned to the office, Meredith asked Goldie if everything had returned to normal at the counter.
Goldie nodded, “Yeah, everything is back to normal. The mall even has a security team to guard our counter.”
“That‘s too much.”
“I think so too,” Goldie went on, “after what Mister Josiah had done to those troublemakers, I think no one would be
foolish enough to barge into the mall to cause a scene.”
“Mm. It‘s good that everything‘s back to normal.” Meredith then handed Goldie some paperwork. “Make a few
copies of this document. I need them for the client meeting later.”
“Okay.” Goldie took the document and then said to her, “Miss Meredith, there‘s something that I don‘t know if I
should tell
you.”
“Forget it then.” Meredith turned on her laptop and started working
Goldie did not expect such a response from Meredith. Biting down on her lips, she added, “But I feel bad for Mister
Josiah if I don‘t say it.”

Meredith then said to her, “Get back to work.”
“But the wound of Mister Josiah‘s forehead was because of you.
Meredith who was typing away on her keyboard froze. Finally, she asked, “How is his injury?”

He was hit by a bottle of perfume on his forehead and he did bleed a lot but Meredith did not think that it was
anything
serious.
“When I went to the mall earlier today, I heard that Mister Josiah‘s wound got infected and he caught a high fever.
And he was sent to the hospital this morning.”
“It‘s nothing serious, isn‘t it? Wound infection.”
“Miss Meredith, you have a medical background, don‘t you? I should be the one asking you this question.”
Meredith cleared her throat awkwardly and said, “You‘re right. I don‘t think it‘d be anything serious.”
She then lowered her head and got back to work.
Goldie then said, “I heard that it can get serious even if it‘s
just a wound like that. It would be dangerous if he gets tetanus, right?”
“Yes, but Mister Josiah is known to have nine lives and he will not die that easily.”
Meredith seemed to be saying this to herself to comfort herself instead of to comfort Goldie.
After all, when Josiah fell down from the third floor and hurt his head, he was still fine, when she stabbed him in the
heart and poisoned him, he did not even die.
Goldie nodded her head. “Ah, if that‘s the case, then it should be fine.”
After Goldie left, Meredith lifted her head up slowly from the laptop.
Meredith wondered if Josiah was fine.
Because she knew that if his wound got infected, it would be rather dangerous.
And based on Josiah‘s personality, he would not want to be hospitalized or receive an injection because of such a
small wound.
After a moment of hesitation, she reached for her phone and called the number of a nurse.
She had stayed at the hospital so many times that she was friends with a few doctors and nurses in Crest Care
Hospital. Hence, it was easy for her to want to get news on Josiah.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt the news that she was asking about Josiah‘s condition, the nurse sighed, “Miss Meredith, the director was about
to call
you.”
“He wanted to call me?”
“Yes, because Sir‘s wound got infected and he‘s running on a high fever now. No matter how the director asked him
to be hospitalized, Sir decided to leave in the end.
The nurse replied, “The director said that Sir listens to you well and so he wanted to call you but Sir had stopped
him. Sir said that he didn‘t want to involve you in his matters and even gave orders for us not to interfere with his
business.
“Sigh, Sir is just putting us in a rough spot, how could he possibly expect us to just leave him alone?” The nurse then
added, “Miss Meredith, if it‘s not too much for you, could you please make a call to Sir and convince Sir to come
back and get treated?”
Meredith was a little conflicted. “But...I can‘t promise that he would listen to me.”
“If even you won‘t be able to convince Sir, no one else would be able to convince him, sigh...”
Meredith ended the call and walked toward the window with her phone in her hand.
