Chapter 46
"Meredith Leighton. A minute ago, you just said that you picked that bastard up from the orphanage. The next second, you're saying that she's my daughter. Do you treat me for an idiotic buffoon?"
"No, Nia is truly your daughter!" Meredith shook her head with tears streaming down her face. With a ripping sound, Josiah suddenly ripped the shirt on him off. Then, he pointed to the scar on his left chest. "Meredith, look. What is this?" Through the tears, Meredith looked at the scar in a daze. Of course, she knew how the scar came by. "Do you still remember? Three years ago, how you admitted your affair with Yoel in front of everyone. Admitting that the bastard is his child?"
"..."
="Because you didn't manage to kill me off with that stab, you're afraid. So, you start lying to say that she's my child? You still want to cheat me to treat your child's illness?" "No, Joe. I was angry when I said that. I..." "Enough!" Josiah interrupted her. "Meredith, I will never believe a single word coming from a liar like you!"
"Okay, you can choose not to believe me, but please return Nia back to me." Meredith started hugging his legs once again. "Nia needs her treatment. She will die if there are any delays. I beg you..."
The more worried Meredith was for that bastard, the more furious Josiah was to the point that he wanted to murder her. He kicked Meredith away in detest and spat coldly, "F*ck off!" Meredith wanted to plead with Josiah once more when he ordered the bodyguards outside," Throw this woman out!" Soon, Meredith was being thrown out of the mansion by the bodyguards. She got up from the ground in a mess. She rushed to the shut gates, crying and shouting, "Josiah, you can't even show a child mercy. Are you even human? How could you be so evil? How could you..." Meredith's legs turned to jelly. She slumped onto the ground. "Nia is my life. I beg you to return her to me..."
Her desperate sobs reached Josiah. Josiah threw another teacup and barked at the bodyguards outside. "Shut her mouth up!"
In the end, it was an old servant that ran out and secretly said to Meredith, "Ma'am, please leave. If you cry any longer, Mister Josiah will kill you."
Meredith grabbed the servant's hands and pleaded with tears in her eyes, "Lily, please tell me where Nia is? Where did Josiah hide her?"
"She passed out just now. Alfred has already sent her to the hospital." Lily pushed her along and said, "Go. Go quickly."
When Meredith heard that Nia had been sent to the hospital, she frantically got up and left before the bodyguards could get to her. Meredith dragged her body in pain and rushed to the hospital. The wind blew past her ears, yet what Lily told her a moment ago was on her mind. Nia has passed out. Nia was sent to the hospital...
She knew that something would happen to Nia if she did not get her drip injection in time. She knew it!
Meredith ran while calling Alayna, telling her that Nia has been sent to the hospital, asking Alayna to search for Nia in every department. When Meredith arrived at the hospital, Alayna had already found Nia. Nia had returned to her ward from the emergency ward.
"How is Nia?" Meredith looked Alayna in the eyes and asked anxiously. "Edith, don't worry. The doctors said that Nia is not in any danger."
