Chapter 1211
“Joe, you don’t need to question Ivy’s feelings for you anymore. I grew up watching her. I know better than she herself what she thinks about you.”
Mrs. Shelby took a light breath and said solemnly, “Also, Joe…I can only rest assured if I hand you over to Ivy, understand?”
Josiah said, “Mrs. Shelby, what’s wrong with Meredith that makes you worry?”
“I don’t know if she’s good or not, I only know that she went back and forth between you and Charlie, and finally killed Charlie. But Ivy doesn’t have such a complicated past. Ivy was brought up and educated by me. I know her and I trust her.”
“Meredith didn’t kill Charlie. How can you just blindly follow the public opinion and blame her?”
Mrs. Shelby sneered and said, “You are the only one in the world who thinks that way.”
“If Mrs. Shelby insists on slandering Meredith like this, then I’ll be…very annoyed.”
“You…” Mrs. Shelby said angrily, “So, what do you want? Do you burn yourself again? Josiah, I warn you…”
Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Shelby began to gasp violently.
Seeing this, Ivy hurriedly stepped forward to support her, comforting her. “Auntie, don’t get excited, the doctor said you can’t be angry.”
After speaking, she said to Josiah, “Joe, stop talking like this. Can’t you say something that Auntie wants to hear?”
What Mrs. Shelby want to hear was that he and Ivy get married.
Seeing Mrs. Shelby’s appearance, Josiah had to say, ” Don’t worry, Mrs. Shelby, I said I would marry Ivy.”
Ivy looked up at Josiah with a slightly surprised expression.
This was the second time he promised to marry Ivy.
Ivy was slightly surprised but nodded. “Okay auntie, I’ll look for opportunities.”
Only then did Mrs. Shelby close her eyes with satisfaction.
Mrs. Shelby spent a day in the hospital and was discharged.
The doctor told Mrs. Shelby not to make her angry or to make her excited, everyone in the house was careful. They feared making her unhappy.
Meredith avoided her even more, trying not to meet her.
Fortunately, she has to work during the day. She also cooked for the children every day and night.
With Meredith’s cooking and Nia’s company, Cooper felt much happier and ate more.
In this way, Meredith saw the value of living in the Shelby Mansion while enduring the discomfort.
