Chapter 1008
After sending Nia to school, Meredith was also ready to leave the Shelby Mansion.
Josiah finally came out of the room, stopped her, and said, “Edith, where are you going?”
“Going home, where else can I go?” Meredith looked at him, tears gradually forming in her eyes. “Mister
Josiah, thank you for helping to take care of Charlie’s funeral, and thank you for taking care of me. I should go
back.”
Hearing her alienating words, Josiah felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Knowing that she would not readily agree, he still said, “Edith, Charlie is no longer here. You can treat this place as
your home in the future.
“Even if you don’t care about me, there’s still Nia.”
Meredith shook her head gently. “Josiah, how thick-skinned do I have to be to immediately turn to
another man’s arms after the death of my husband?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe paused, then smiled bitterly. “You should have cleaned up a lot of the gossip on the internet, right? But what’s
the use? Today’s internet is so developed, how much can you clean up?”
“…” Josiah was silent.
He did not expect Meredith to see gossip on the internet so quickly.
Charlie’s death has indeed caused great damage to Meredith’s reputation. There have even been groups on the
Internet that collectively boycotted ‘Sweet Reminiscence’.
These netizens were angry because they thought that Meredith was jumping between Josiah and Charlie, and finally
caused Charlie to die.
The netizens were ganging up on her, plus one person was behind the scenes. As a result, the official website of
‘Sweet Reminiscence’ received so many negative comments that it had to be shut down.
Meredith saw all of these.
Josiah comforted her softly, “Edith, don’t worry, it will be fine after the public opinion subsides after a while.”
“So I can’t live in your house anymore. Otherwise, the public opinion will never calm down.” Meredith said bitterly.
“To be honest, I would look down on a woman whose husband just died and went to live with her ex-husband. I
would not buy her products.”
“Edith…”
“You don’t need to go any further.” Meredith interrupted him, stared at him, and said, “Mister Josiah, I should really
be grateful for your care during this time, but in order to avoid the public eye, let’s meet less in the future.”
Josiah opened his mouth, and the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat.
He actually wanted to tell her that Charlie was gone, and it was the most suitable and perfect for him to take care
of her
However, saying this at this time would undoubtedly stimulate her, so he had to hold back
He nodded. “Okay, I’ll take you back”
“No need.”
“Edith, you can’t do it alone at this time. Don’t make me worry, okay?” He said helplessly. “You know, when I’m
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworried, I can’t help but to go see you.”
Meredith looked at the persistence in his eyes and was speechless for a while.
“Don’t worry, I’ll send you to the door and leave,” Josiah said.
He did not insist on pestering her. The main reason was that there were so many rumors outside, and there would
be some extremists.
He was worried that it would be dangerous for her to go out alone.
In order to take care of her emotions, Josiah changed to a car that he basically never drove on weekdays.
The car was driving slowly on the road, and the sun was streaming in through the window,
Meredith squinted slightly. Looking at the familiar street scene on the street, she felt that time had changed
It seems that Charlie was gone, and her era was over.
It was just that this era was over too quickly, and she did not even get a chance to react.
Especially when she saw the familiar mansion, which was getting closer and closer, her eyes became wet and moist
again.
