Chapter 276 Josiah nodded, “Yeah, you’re just something else, aren’t you? Treating him like some sort of garbage,
disposing of him when you feel like it.” “Josiah …” She grabbed his arms with her trembling hands and cried, “Nia is
also your child, so why aren’t you…” “Shut up!” Josiah slapped her again. “I will kill you if you dare to bring up her
name again!” Meredith felt her ears ringing. She could not seem to say anything else. Josiah stood up and glanced
coldly at her. “Meredith Leighton, don’t even think that I’ll let you go just because you got rid of the child. You can
dream on!” He reached for his phone and called a number. “Send someone over. Bring Meredith back home and
lock her up.” Meredith struggled and got herself up from the floor. Wrapping her arms around his legs, she cried,
“Josiah Shelby, you’re breaking your promise!” Josiah’s gaze was clouded even more. Lifting her head to look at
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim, Meredith went on, “You promised to let me go once I get rid of the child, and now that the baby is gone, how
could you not keep your word?”
Josiah did not say anything.
Josiah knew that it was not right to hit a woman but right now, he desperately wanted to beat up Meredith.

Why was everything she did somehow end up wrong?
Meredith got herself off the floor. She wanted to visit Nia but Josiah’s men had already shown up. They had her
hands tied up and she was thrown into the car.
Josiah did what he said – locking her up again.
At the sight of Meredith who was injured all over, Lily was shocked. “Miss Meredith, what
happened to you?” Meredith cried her heart out. “Lily, I’ve lost my baby.” “Huh?” Lily was stunned. “What
happened?” Meredith did not reply and only kept repeating the same words, “What should I do? What happened to
Nia?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLily did not know what to do as well.
“Miss Meredith, let me treat the wound on your forehead.” Lily took out a first-aid box and started cleaning up the
wound on Meredith’s forehead. “Look at you with another new wound. Why are you always so clumsy?” All
Meredith thought was how useless she was.
How could she be so naive to take the pills that Zade had given her?
But what was the use of crying over spilled milk? She had already lost her baby.
Meredith lay on the bed. Perhaps she was too worn out from everything.
By the time Josiah returned home, Meredith was still sleeping on the bed.
At the sight of Meredith, Josiah was immediately reminded of how she had killed the baby. He strode toward her
