Chapter 1222
Meredith lightly shook her head. “It’s not too much.
“Josiah, from today onwards, I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do anymore. I also won’t push you to another woman anymore.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
“I’ll only believe you if you kiss me,” Josiah said.
He dodged when she kissed him just now because he was angry.
At that moment, after he already heard what she said, he was filled with joy and anticipation.
Meredith hesitated a little, then she lifted her head to kiss him on his lips. “Is this enough?”
“You’re not allowed to regret this.” Josiah lowered his head and kissed her deeply.
Meredith was speechless.
The sounds of them passionately bonding together could vaguely be heard coming from the study. When Mrs. Shelby heard it, she was so pissed off that her face became even paler.
“Ma’am, are you alright?” asked the maid with concern.
Mrs. Shelby did not answer her question, she closed her eyes for a little while, turned around, and walked down the stairs.
She did not return to her bedroom on the first floor to rest. Instead, she came to the basement at the annex.
The basement at the annex has always been deserted, and even the lights appeared to be especially dim and eerie.
Ivy’s clothes, which were already covered in blood stains, to begin with, became even redder.
She gritted her teeth hard until Mrs. Shelby got tired and stopped. Only then did she lift her little face with difficulty and look at her. ” Mrs. Shelby, I was wrong. Please…give me one more chance.”
Mrs. Shelby threw the whip to the side and said mercilessly, “I’ll let you live today. If the wedding on the sixth of next month isn’t done as planned, I’ll punish you again then.”
Upon saying that, she turned around immediately and walked out of the basement.
When Mrs. Shelby returned to the main building, Josiah and Meredith appeared in front of her and were already fully dressed.
Meredith looked around the mansion, and the mansion was quiet. She could not hear the children and also could not see Ivy.
She had occupied Ivy’s chance, so should Ivy not be looking for her to settle scores? why was she nowhere to be seen instead?
“Mrs. Shelby, may I know if Ivy had taken Nia and Cooper out to play?” Meredith asked while feeling a little worried.
