Chapter 690
Josiah was stumped by Liam’s questions.
Yes. Was he still hoping that Meredith would miss him? Meredith had told him long ago that she would not marry
him again in her entire life. She only stayed back to take care of Nia.
“You’re right.” Josiah smiled bitterly and sat up.
“What are you doing?” Liam was frightened by him. “Getting discharged. What else?”
Liam was speechless. “You’re in the intensive care unit. If you run out just like that, you’ll scare the others.”
Josiah did not care about any of that. He initially wanted to gain some pity from Meredith by pretending that he was
dying. Since Meredith did not buy it, why should he continue the pretense?
“Hold up, I lied to you.” Liam pushed him back to the bed and said, “Actually, Meredith was still very anxious last
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnight. She even stayed back in the hospital until late at night before returning home. Also, I saw how anxious she
looked. It’s not only because of Nia.”
Josiah was speechless. “Liam, are you done!?”
“I’m telling the truth.”
“I don’t believe a single word from you right now.” Josiah pushed him away. He still wanted to get out of bed.
Liam panicked. He took out his phone and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can try it yourself.”
The entire morning, Meredith was a little worried. She was worried that the hospital would suddenly call her and tell
her that Josiah was not going to make it.
However, whatever she feared the most usually came true.
When she heard Liam say that Josiah was almost not going to make it, her phone fell from her palms.
“Hello, Meredith, Meredith, are you still there?” Liam heard the phone drop, but he still pretended to call out to her
in front of Josiah.
“Meredith, don’t be too worried. Josiah is lucky. I’m sure he will come around.”
Meredith’s hands trembled. Her voice was shaky too. “I’ll come over right now. Wait for me!”
“Okay, don’t be too worried. Josiah is still in the emergency room,” Liam said.
After hanging up, he looked at Josiah and raised his eyebrow. “How about that? I didn’t lie to you, right?”
Josiah looked at him and coldly said, “If something happens to Edith on the way here, I will never forgive you.”
Liam was speechless. He said helplessly, “Josiah, are you inhumane or what? I’m doing this
for you!”
When he heard Meredith’s trembling voice, although Josiah liked it, at the thought of her rushing over anxiously, he
could not help but start to worry.
She would surely drive over. Would she drive past the speed limit? Would she run the red lights? Would she…be in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏman accident?
The more he thought about it, the more worried he was. Josiah said, “No.You better call her quickly and tell her that
I’m fine.”
Liam was speechless. “Do you think she’s an idiot? Would she believe me that easily?”
“I’m worried about her.”
Liam could only pick his phone up and dial her once again. However, this time, no one answered.
“No one is answering.”
Liam shrugged and comforted Josiah, “Don’t worry. Meredith is such a calm person. She would not be reckless on
the road.”
Unable to stand Josiah’s cold expression, Liam found an excuse to dismiss himself. “Go pretend you’re dead. I’ll go
see her.”
Meredith indeed drove to the Shelby Group Hospital. She parked the car by the side and rushed toward the
emergency room. From far, she could see Liam walking over at the corridors.
