pter 164 Josiah did not answer her question but said instead, “Ysabelle , you should go.” Ysabelle’s voice softened, “Josiah, I’m sure it must be hard on you after the incident, let me stay here with you.” His attitude remained cold. “There’s no need.”
“What about Yena…”
“The doctor will keep an eye on Yena,” Josiah cut her off bluntly. Ysabelle thought of staying with him to earn his trust but seeing how Josiah was cold toward her, she gave up eventually. Before leaving, she added, “I’ll come another day to visit Yena. Take care of yourself, Josiah.” On the other hand, Josiah ignored her as he lit up a cigarette.
Meredith was once locked up in this exact basement three years ago. The memory of her days being spent in the dark, cold, and wet basement was still fresh.
Meredith hated every second of her time spent in the basement.

Cowering by a corner in the basement, she could only hope that the cops would run a thorough investigation of Miss Leah’s death to prove her innocence. After all, she knew that it was impossible to expect that Josiah would realize that he was wrong about her.
It was already late into the night when Lily came to her with medicine and food.
At the sight of her, Meredith asked immediately, “Lily, have the police found anything? Did they…”
Meredith started coughing before she could finish her sentence.
Lily quickly walked up to her and comforted, “Miss Meredith, calm down. Here, have some medicine, you’re still running a high fever.”
Without any hesitation, Meredith quickly put the pills into her mouth.
“Have some bread, you must be famished.”
“Thanks, Lily.” Meredith then started gobbling up the bread.
She had to get better soon if she wanted to get out of the basement alive. While biting, she asked, “Lily, so how did the investigation go?” Lily replied, “The cops did run an investigation but it seemed like they got nothing. I think Sir is leaning toward concluding the case as suicide or simply an accident where she slipped and fell.” Meredith froze. Staring at Lily, she asked, “What did you say? It’s so obvious that it is an attempted murder but he’s thinking of concluding it as a suicide? Don’t tell me that Josiah is trying to protect Ysabelle?”
Lily did not know what to say and could only shake her head in disappointment.
“Or perhaps, right from the start, he did not need any answer or the truth, he simply needed a reason to lock me up in the basement.” “Miss Meredith, you need to calm down.” “Lily, how do you expect me to calm down?” Anger thrumming through her veins, Meredith added, “He’s

willing to throw away all of his common sense just to torture me, isn’t he? After all, Miss Leah was supposedly his future mother-in law! How could bury the truth of her death just like that?”
“But Miss Meredith, don’t you think that perhaps the person that Sir wants to protect, might be you all along?” Startled, Meredith looked at Lily with a puzzled look on her face. Lily quickly explained herself, “Of course, I know that it wasn’t you who pushed Yena down the stairs but Sir doesn’t know, does he? After all, it is true that you have a feud with Miss Leah, and given the circumstances, anyone would have pinned you as the prime suspect, even Sir would think so too.”
“Lily, how could you possibly still think of him that way?” Staring at Lily in disbelief, Meredith went on, “Have you forgotten that you said the same to me back then, about how Josiah is actually good to me and all, but the truth? He just wants to keep me around so that he could continue tormenting me, to make my life a living hell.”
