Chapter 335
“Sir, we‘ve already cleaned out the pot and there are no leftovers,” Lily replied.
Worriedly, she then asked, “what should we do?”
“Sir, it was Miss Meredith who made the soup. We could always ask her what she
added into the soup, right?” Jenny stared at Meredith and went on, “I saw Miss
Meredith adding quite a lot of ingredients into the soup but I‘m not sure what those
are.”
“Edith, what did you add to the soup?” Josiah asked. “I added…” Meredith started
listing down the ingredients that she had added.
The doctor pondered for quite a few minutes before saying, “There‘s nothing wrong
with the ingredients. Perhaps ma‘am is just having indigestion because of her age.”
Jenny, on the other hand, slipped out a word, “Doctor, Miss Meredith is a bit mentally unstable and we can‘t really trust her words fully”
The doctor was startled. “So…you‘re saying that?”
“What I‘m trying to say is that Miss Meredith might have forgotten one of the ingredients that she added and I‘m worried that this would affect ma‘an‘s health,” Jenny
quickly explained herself.
Meredith immediately retorted, “I didn‘t remember wrongly and I am not mentally
unstable.”
“My apologies, Miss Meredith. I‘m not trying to imply anything.” Jenny lowered her head and then said to the others, “I‘ll get a glass of water for ma‘am to take her
medication.”
As soon as she walked out of the room, Jenny exhaled sharply.
But soon she prayed that nothing serious would happen to Josiah‘s grandmother.
thanked Meredith, “Edith is really good with her hands, I feel much better now.”
Meredith smiled. “Granny, I didn‘t do anything. I‘m sure it was the medication.”
“No. It‘s because of you,” Josiah‘s grandmother insisted. Josiah nodded in agreement. “Yes, Edith is good with massaging.”
None of them actually blamed Meredith?
Jenny was puzzled.
Josiah and Meredith waited until Josiah‘s grandmother fell asleep before returning to their room.
Laying on the bed, Josiah waved at Meredith and said, “Edith, give me a massage too, will
you? It‘s been such a long time since you last massaged me.” “Sure,” Meredith nodded and asked, “where do you want it?” “All over,” Josiah turned around and pointed at his back, “sit up here and massage me.”
The last time, she sat on his back too. Meredith climbed onto his back and started massaging him.
Shortly after, Josiah fell asleep. Meredith leaned over to see him sleeping. She then\ called out to him softly, “Joe, are you asleep? Should I stop?“
