Chapter 674 With no other choice, Meredith had to explain herself. “Doctor Halsey, you’re mistaken. Mister Charlie
and I are just friends.”
“Oh really? Just friends huh,” Halsey nodded but the expression on her face said otherwise.
Meredith knew that Halsey was not convinced but she did not care anymore.
After work, Meredith was changing in the locker room.
Halsey left her office and when she was in the parking lot, a black Rolls-Royce caught her attention.
To be exact, it was the man who was leaning lazily against the car who caught her attention. The man was tall and
good-looking, exuding sophisticated vibes. The first thing that came to Hasley’s mind was that the man must be
some sort of celebrity or model.
Even though she knew that she would not stand a chance with him, Halsey still fixed her attire and her hair before
approaching the man. “Hey good-looking, may I know…” Before she could even finish her sentence, Josiah cut her

“…” Just one reply from Josiah and Halsey’s dream vanished into thin air.
A good-looking man like him was actually married?
Halsey guessed if his wife could be one of her colleagues from the upper management. But she never knew anyone
who was that wealthy.
Being the nosy person that she was, Halsey smiled and asked, “May I know who your wife is? Who knows? Perhaps
we’re in the same department.”
“Meredith Leighton.”
“Huh?” Halsey was stunned.
“What’s wrong?”
“Oh, it’s nothing.” Halsey replied.
Inwardly, she thought to herself ‘That ugly b*tch is actually married to such a good-looking and rich man? How is it
possible?’
“Meredith and I are in the same department. Both of us just got off work together,” Halsey smiled as she took a
glance at the car behind Josiah and asked, “is that car…yours?”
“No.”
Exactly. Why would a good looking and rich man like a woman like Meredith?
Studying the ever-changing expression on Halsey’s face, Josiah asked, “You mentioned you got off work together
with my wife? May I know where she is then?”
“Oh, Meredith?” Halsey quickly came up with an excuse and said, “I saw her being pulled aside
by a good-looking young lad. But I don’t know where they went. The young lad is her patient and I heard that he is
pursuing her. He even said that he wants to marry Meredith.”
Halsey vented her jealousy toward Meredith. She hated the fact that Meredith was seducing a young lad when she
had such a good-looking husband.

Halsey explained, “Sorry. I didn’t mean to come in between the both of you. Meredith is my colleague after all, and I
don’t wish to see her going down the wrong path. This is why I chose to tell you.”
“Who did you say was going after her?” Josiah fumed.
Halsey, on the other hand, pretended to be nervous. “I’m really sorry. I don’t mean to come in between the both of
you. Please don’t tell Meredith that I told you this. I’m leaving now.”
She then got into her car and drove away.
Josiah reached for his phone and dialed Meredith’s number.
As she was about to leave, Meredith ran into her supervisor who wanted to have a chat with her. Seeing that it was
Josiah who was calling, Meredith silenced her phone.
After parting ways with her supervisor, Meredith remembered the call from Josiah so she returned his call.
“Anything?” Meredith asked flatly.
“Where are you?” Josiah asked.
“At the hospital.”
“It’s way past your working hours, isn’t it? Why are you still at the hospital?” “I had something to do,” Meredith
replied as she walked out of the building.
