Chapter 229
no
“Shall I make a guess why you’re not admitting that I am the father of the child?” Josiah pretended that he was
thinking hard before replying, “You knew that I would never allow you to carry my child and you’re worried that I’d
force you to get rid of the child. As long as you’re able to get away with it for nine months, I’d not be able to do
anything to you because I will not kill a newborn. And, you’d be able to take the child with you to meet my
grandmother, am I right?”
Staring at his face that was brimming with confidence , Meredith tugged at the corners of her lips and snickered,
“Josiah Shelby, it’s such a waste that you’re not a scriptwriter. Let me tell you one last time, this child is not yours.”
“Well, just one test and we’ll find out.”
“Oh really?” Meredith pretended to be surprised. “I didn’t think that you’d know that we have something called the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpaternity test. Because if you did, you’d have done a paternity test with Nia instead of forcing me to get rid of Nia.”
Josiah narrowed his eyes. “I’ve seen the paternity test results with Nia.”
“Yeah? That paternity test results could have been manipulated too.” Meredith added, “But aren’t you worried that
I’d get someone to manipulate the paternity test results this time too?”
“You don’t have the resources and capability to do so.”
“You’re right. I am not the young ma’am of the Leighton family anymore. Ysabelle has all the power and influence
now.”
“Meredith Leighton, stop blaming everything on Ysabelle!” Josiah was irritated by Meredith’s cold and indifferent
tone.
Cutting right to the chase, Josiah threw a box of pills on Meredith. “I’ll give you two days to get rid of that child. If
not, I will force it down your throat like how I did years ago.”
Meredith was startled.
She looked down at the box of pills in her hand. Just like she expected, Josiah was still the same now and then. He
would not allow her to carry any of children.
That year, he had forced the pills down her throat but today, he simply threw the boxcf pills at her. It was the same
scene and it hurt Meredith the same.
Gnawing on her lips, she stared at him. “Josiah Shelby, how many times do you need me to tell you that this child is
not yours?”
“Run a paternity test and prove to me that this child is not mine and I’ll let you po,” Josiah snickered.
He had checked with Mister Leon and Miss Josie that Meredith had not once sold her body to anyone
In other words, apart from Josiah, Meredith did not sleep with any other men,
Hence, Josiah was confident that he was the father of that child.
But there could be a slight chance that the child belonged to another,
Even so, Josiah would not allow Meredith to keep the baby.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I will check on you after two days.” Josiah then strode out the door.
After making sure that Josiah was gone, Ysabelle only then showed up from another side of the door. Walking
toward Meredith with a smug smile on her face, she scoffed, “So? Don’t you feel utterly hopeless?”.
Meredith tried to fight back the tears that were about to run down her cheeks, then glared at Ysabelle and seethed,
“Please leave!”
Ysabelle, of course, ignored her. “You tried to lock me up in the toilet and stole my chance of sleeping with Josiah
and you’re now pregnant with his child. But in the end? Josiah is not going to acknowledge this child. Haha, don’t
you find this scene oddly familiar?”
Clenching her fists tightly, Meredith tampered down her rage
“I know that you only wanted to get pregnant to save your daughter. And if your plan worked, you would be treated
with respect by the Shelby family for being the mother of two Shelby kids.”
“Tsk tsk, just the thought of it makes my skin crawl,” Ysabelle shook her head and added, “So do you really think
that I am going to let you give birth to that child? You can dream on.”
