Chapter 28 Leaning toward him, Meredith then wrapped her arms around his shoulders and whined,”
Mister Leon, you’re late. I’ve been waiting for you.” “Sorry, love. I’ll do what I can to make you feel better,
okay?”
It was obvious that Leon was drunk. The smell of both alcohol and his sweat almost had Meredith
throwing up.
“Okay.” Doing her best to put up with him, Meredith said flirtatiously, “What are you waiting for, Mister
Leon? Hurry up. I can’t wait any longer.” Leon, who could hardly wait any longer, lowered his head and
was about to kiss Meredith. “Mister Leon,” Meredith whispered softly as she placed a finger on Leon’s
lips. “My mask…”
“Ah, yes, the mask!” Leon removed the mask from her face and said, “Why would you hide your stunning
looks behind a mask, we…holy sh*t!”
Leon let out a sudden cry and pushed Meredith to the floor.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith a horrified look on his face, Leon glared at her and demanded, “Who the hell are you?!”
Meredith who was pushed to the ground felt a piercing pain spread through her back, causing her to
shudder.
But it was nothing compared to the pain she felt in her heart. She was well aware of the fact that she was
no longer the gorgeous and talented lady that people knew of her, and instead, her face was disfigured in
the most horrible way possible.
Holding back the tears welling up in her eyes, Meredith got up on her feet. She then tried to inch closer
to Leon. “Mister Leon, it’s me, Meredith Leighton. Didn’t you say that you fancied
me?”
“Are you crazy? There is no way that Meredith would look this way!” Leon stumbled his way toward the
door, all the while screaming for help, “Save me! There’s a hideous monster in here!”
Chasing up to him, Meredith said, “Mister Leon, please don’t go. You promised to make me happy
tonight…” “You…you…get the hell away from me!” Running out from the guest room, Leon turned
around to find that Meredith was chasing after him and he started panicking, causing him to stumble
even more.
When turning around a corner, Leon accidentally knocked his head on the wall, and he passed out
instantly.
Pretending to be sad, Meredith kneeled by his side and wept, “Mister Leon, are you alright? Get up and
play with me.”
“Mister Leon, I am Meredith Leighton, I really am Meredith, I…” After ‘sobbing’ for a little longer, Meredith
noticed a pair of shiny leather shoes in front of her.
Judging from the size of the shoes, Meredith knew right away that they belonged to Josiah.

Meredith was startled, In a flurry, she quickly put on the mask removed by leon before looking at Josiah.
“Joe, what do we do? Mister Leon passed out after seeing me.” “Let’s call the cops,” replied Josiah as his
lips tugged into a smirk. The cops?
Meredith felt her heart skip a beat. She then took a glance at Leon who was bleeding on his forehead.

Just when one of Josiah’s attendants was about to make a call, Meredith cried out, “Hold on!”
She rushed toward where Josiah stood, wrapped her arms around his leg, and begged, “Mister Josiah, I
didn’t mean to hurt Mister Leon. Please don’t call the cops on me. Please, I’m begging you!” She knew
that Josiah would leap at every chance he got to torture her.
He would definitely exaggerate her offenses to the cops.
What would happen to Nia if she were sent to jail? And who would pay for Nia’s medical bills?
“Prostitution and aggravated assault…how are you going to get rid of these two major offenses?”
“I did not do any of those.” Meredith shook her head.
“Here it goes again, that innocent and lost expression,” scoffed Josiah as he continued,” Meredith, aren’t
you tired of all these pretending?”
Meredith knew that there was no point in explaining herself to Josiah when he was determined to get
revenge. Just like that year.
