Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 1206

Josiah glanced at the tickets in her hand, hesitated for a while, and took them.

“As far as I know, Meredith prefers this kind of concert, so I’d better take her there.” He walked gracefully to the sofa opposite Mrs. Shelby and sat down.

However, Mrs. Shelby’s expression changed, “what did you say? Are you going to take Meredith?”

“Well, Mother, you injured Meredith’s hand so badly, so she should be compensated.” Josiah took out a cup of tea from the tray.

Mrs. Shelby’s face darkened slightly, and she sneered, “Meredith’s spread the news quite quickly.”

“Mother, you made a mistake.” Josiah poured her a cup of tea. “I went to her company today and saw her hand wrapped in gauze. No matter how I asked her, she said that she was scalded while making coffee. I recognized the gauze as it belongs to our family, and she won’t admit that it was you who scalded her.”

“She’s quite clever.” Mrs. Shelby scorned.

In her opinion, no matter how long it took Josiah to find out the truth, it was a fact that Meredith showed her injury to Josiah.

Naturally, her resentment toward Meredith deepened.

Josiah watched her patiently. “Mother, I want to know what Meredith did wrong, what did she do that warranted pouring hot tea on her hands?”

When he came out of Meredith’s company in the morning, he had already found out about the situation from Lily.

“What? Do you want to stand up for her?”

“No, Meredith asked me to settle down, because she didn’t want to have a grudge with you.” Josiah said, “So I just want to know the reason.”

“The reason?” Mrs. Shelby was not afraid of her son at all and said coldly, “She doesn’t know what’s good for her. she knows that you are going to marry Ivy soon, and she seduces you to spend the night at her house. This reason is enough, isn’t it?”

Mrs. Shelby held her posture. “I think she got off easy with just a bum on her hands, she should have her face destroyed.”

Josiah was calm on the surface, but his heart was already penetrated by anger.

“Mother, you burned her because she was with me last night?”

“That’s right, without giving her a little warning, she’ll never be disciplined.”

“Then, Mother, you scalded the wrong person.” Josiah stared at her coldly and said slowly, “I ran to find her in the middle of the night last night, and I had to stay at her house for the night. I should be the one who is scalded, not her.”

Mrs. Shelby snorted disapprovingly, picked up the teacup, and was about to drink it, but saw Josiah directly pick up the hot tea and pour it on the back of his hand. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Mrs. Shelby was frightened by him and exclaimed, “Joe—”

Looking at Josiah’s jade-like hand, a layer of steam came out. Mrs. Shelby was in a hurry and moved over to grab his hand. “Josiah, what are you doing?”

She shouted to the servant next to them, “Quick, come get the ice water.”

The servant hurried out.

It would be a lie to say that it did not hurt when the hot tea was poured on the back of his hand, but what Josiah was thinking at this moment was Meredith stubbornly saying it did not hurt at all.

That woman really can tell any lie in order to keep things calm.

“Joe, are you crazy?” Mrs. Shelby did not understand why he did this.

Josiah raised his handsome face, stared at her, and said coldly, ” Isn’t Mrs. Shelby scalding Meredith because of what happened last night? Meredith did not do anything wrong last night. It’s me who should be scalded.”

“You…” Mrs. Shelby was dumbfounded by anger. “Josiah, you are really crazy for that woman!”

The servant has already brought in the ice water.

Mrs. Shelby grabbed Josiah’s wrist and pressed his palm into the ice water.

Josiah shook her off coldly and said, “Mother, if you’re not happy with Meredith in the future, it’s best you don’t do anything to her. If you have to do anything, do it to me.”
