Chapter 120 “Oh well of course I do. The paternity test results are on Josiah’s study
desk.” “It was clearly you who had manipulated the test results!” “Goodness me, you sure do think
too highly of me, don’t you?” Chuckling , Ysabelle asked,” Say, aren’t you curious what happened when
Josiah saw that daughter of yours earlier?”
Of course, Meredith was curious.
She felt her chest tighten right away when Ysabelle brought up the mention of Nia. But she knew better
what Josiah would have done to Nia. Like always, he would have looked at Nia in disgust and disdain,
he would push her away coldly and leave her all alone.
But Meredith was more worried that with Ysabelle around Josiah, she would have incited Josiah to
harm Nia.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the thought of her daughter insisting that Josiah was her father, Meredith was devastatingly
heartbroken.
Clenching her hands tightly into a fist, Meredith uttered her words carefully, “Ysabelle, come at me if
you have anything against me. How lowly of you to be harming a three-year-old kid?”
“You said it as if I’ve never come at you before.” Ysabelle added, “Don’t worry, I will not spare either
you or that child of yours, but of course, Josiah is doing my job for me, and I don’t even have to do
anything.”
Anger rose in Meredith like a tide.
“Oh, and I want to have mushroom soup for dinner tonight. Be sure to prepare it for me.” Ysabelle then
walked upstairs obnoxiously.
Thinking of talking to Nia, Meredith made a call to Aunt Wren but Nia was already sleeping.
“Is Nia okay?” “Don’t worry, Miss Meredith, she will be fine.” Aunt Wren comforted. After ending the
call, Meredith wiped away the tears on her face and continued preparing dinner.
Josiah returned home after an hour. Like always, the first thing he would do when he returned home
was to check up on Yena upstairs, change his clothes, and come downstairs for dinner. Pouring a bowl
of mushroom soup for Josiah, Meredith hesitated before asking, “Joe, did you happen to see Nia today
at the hospital? She…”
Slamming down the cutleries in his hands onto the table, Josiah glared coldly at her.” Meredith
Leighton, are you trying to ruin my appetite on purpose?” “I…I’m not.” Meredith paused and added,
“Joe, I just want to beg you that …the next time you see Nia, could you not hurt her? She is after all
only three and she’s really ill”
always throws herself at me every time she sees me as if she is trying to humiliate me, calling me

usual, Josiah grabbed her chin and hissed, “Meredith Leighton, this is my last warning – ask your
daughter to stay away from me. It disgusts me to see you and her!”
He then pushed Meredith onto the floor.
Sitting up on the floor, Meredith lifted up her head, stared at him, and said, “I just hope that on the day
that you regret all of these, you won’t be too sad.” “Regret?” Josiah scoffed, “Forgive me if I’m not
getting this right but why would I regret or be sad over that illegitimate child of yours when we were only
married for a year?” “Josiah…”
“Sis, why are you sitting on the floor?” Ysabelle walked into the dining hall right then, interrupting
Meredith. “Did you make Josiah mad again? Look at you, you’re always making him upset and begging
him for forgiveness. How do you expect Josiah to forgive you when you’re acting this way?”
Ysabelle was clearly trying to tell her that there was no point in making Josiah upset.
Meredith sniffled and did not say anything else.
Sitting down next to Josiah, Ysabelle continued to be nice, “Josiah, don’t get too angry, hmm? Meredith
simply misses Nia a lot, she’s not trying to go against you.”
