Chapter 1263
am just simply curious. Because I don't think I heard the news about you and your husband
getting back together.”
Another lady quickly gave a light nudge on Mrs. Zeya's arm and it was then Mrs. Zeya stopped
talking.
Looking at Mrs. Zeya, Mrs. Shelby scoffed, "Even though my husband and I are divorced, my son
is still part of this family. Is there a problem that I've returned?"
Mrs. Zeya finally realized that she had misspoken. She shook her hands and quickly explained,
"No, not at all. That's not what I meant, Mrs. Shelby. I was simply...
curious."
She then hurriedly got up onto her feet and said, "Mrs. Shelby, please enjoy the rest of your
evening. I'll be taking my leave now."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMrs. Zeya then left without even turning back.
Meredith, who was on the second floor, witnessed what had happened and exclaimed, "Mrs.
Shelby is something else, isn't she? Just one glare and she managed to make someone run
away."
Josiah pulled into a smile. "You could too, you know?" "How could I?"
"When you become my wife. You'd be able to rule Delmas Town."
"But I don’t want to do that."
Josiah lifted his head up to look at Meredith. "I don't think you'd be able to do that either."
"What do you mean?" Meredith raised one of her brows.
"Because our lovely Miss Meredith would never use her status and power on someone." Josiah bent over and ruffled
Meredith's hair.
"Here's a small gift for you." Josiah handed her an envelope.
Staring at the envelope in his hands, Meredith laughed, " What is this? Are you giving me pocket money?"
"Why? Is it weird?"
"Yes, very." Meredith took the envelope.
"I'm giving pocket money to my grandparents, Cooper, and to Nia too. What’s so weird?" Josiah asked.
"They are different, right? There's really no need for you to be giving me an allowance."
"Do you not want them? You can give it back to me then. " Josiah pretended as if he was going to take back the
envelope from Meredith.
Avoiding him, Meredith said, "Why would I not want free money? Of course, I'd want it."
She stuffed the envelope in her pocket and then asked, " Should I also give you some allowances too?"
"Up to you." Josiah cleared his throat loudly, grabbed the magazine on the desk, and started flipping through it.
Hearing his response, Meredith knew that she would have to return the favor too.
She went back to her room and put some money into an envelope before returning to Josiah. "Here you go."
"Aren't you going to add some good words too?"
"I hope you make more money in the coming new year."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Haven’t I made enough?"
"Who would complain that they are making too much money? If you really did think that you've
earned enough, you wouldn't have expanded your business overseas."
"You got that wrong. I expanded my business overseas not because of money, it's so that we
could keep up with the market, to reinforce and strengthen my influence in the market so that
we don't get expelled from the industry."
"Whatever you say." Meredith did not wish to argue more with him. She started making tea
instead.
Right then, someone called Josiah on his phone.
After a few words of exchange, he ended the call.
"Someone else is coming over?" Meredith overheard a little of their conversation.
"Liam and his parents are coming over for dinner together."
"Really?" Meredith immediately put down the things in her hand and stared surprisedly at Josiah.
Looking at Meredith's reaction, Josiah said, rather unhappily, "There you go again!"
