Chapter 135 She had prepared toast, omelet, slices of bacon, and sausages. Looking at the delicious
breakfast, Liam asked Meredith, “Edith, where is mine?” Taking a quick glance at Josiah, Meredith
replied, “Lily is almost done preparing your breakfast. Please wait a little longer.”
“But I want to have what you make.” Liam picked up a slice of bacon from Josiah’s plate.
Nodding, he said, “Mm! This is delicious! You’re such a good cook, Edith!”
Just when he was about to take another slice, Josiah stopped him.
“Hey, don’t be selfish!” Ignoring him, Josiah started eating while flipping through a magazine. Seeing
Josiah being all serious, Liam purposely teased, “Edith, if you ever become mine one day, I want you to
prepare nice meals for me too.” Stealing a glance at Josiah, Meredith put a finger to her mouth,

say and asked, “Why? Are you not willing to?” Josiah replied instead, “Well, we’ll have to see if she has
the guts to marry you.” “I’m sure that Edith would fall for me someday, right, Edith?” Liam playfully
flashed Meredith a wink. “You must be joking, Mister Liam. How could I possibly be married to you?”
replied Meredith, sounding all serious. She said this for the sake of pleasing Josiah. It was not often
that Josiah was in a good mood and Meredith had to seize this opportunity. While Josiah was about to
head upstairs to change after having his breakfast, Meredith followed him into his room. Glancing at
her through the mirror, Josiah noticed the kiss marks that he left around her neck. “What’s up? Trying to
seduce me first thing in the morning?” Meredith could not help but remind him, “Sir, it was you who
forced yourself on me… I didn’t seduce you.”
Josiah froze. Turning around to stare at her, he asked, “Then what is it that you’re doing now? Barging
into my room when I’m changing?” “I have a favor to ask of you,” Looking into his eyes, Meredith went
on, “Sir, my mom has been locked up for more than a week. Could you please allow her to be released
on medical parole? I’m worried that…” .
“I have nothing to do with what happened to your mother. You should talk to your sister instead,” Josiah
cut her off and went on, “but I don’t think she’lsagree to your request since
you burned her, poisoned her, and had even taken me away from her.” Meredith was wordless.
Seeing how she was not saying anything, Josiah sniggered , “Meredith haven’t you heard of the saying
– one would not be in trouble had one not asked for it?”
Gnawing on her lips, Meredith tried to explain herself, “It was Ysabelle who started it first. I can’t always

“I have absolutely no interest in the feud between you and her,” Josiah cut her off again and proceeded
to walk toward the door.
Chasing up to him, Meredith tugged on his sleeves and said, “Sir, I know this has got nothing to do with
you but if you were to bring this up, Ysabelle would let my mother go right away. You know Ysabelle
always listens to you.”
“You’ve taken me away from her and what makes you think that she’ll still listen to me?”
“She will and she will because she likes you a lot.”
Plus, Ysabelle did mention that Josiah had the authority over settling the incident involving her mother.
Hence, her mother would be saved if Josiah put in a word for her. “So, you want me to use Ysabelle’s
feelings for me to save your mother?”
“Let me say this again. Talk to your sister about your mother, don’t come to me,” said Josiah as he
looked down at her hand that was tugging on his sleeves.
