Still Loving You Nonetheless Chapter 86

“Where are your bruises? Show me, then I’ll believe you.”

Meredith was speechless. Ysabelle slapped her on the injured side of her face. There was no bruise to
show him.

“I saw the footage of you pushing her to the wall. I saw the injuries on her head today too.” Josiah bent
down and looked at her closely once more. “Meredith, do you think there is still a reason for you to talk
to me?”

Meredith panicked.

Just because she hit Ysabelle, so she did not have a chance to speak at all? “Mister Josiah…”
Meredith shook her head with difficulty, she tried to calm herself down. “I can’t explain myself about
Ysabelle. You won’t believe me either, but my mother can’t go to prison. Her health is terrible. She
passed out in the hospital a few days ago.”

“Shouldn’t you tell all this to Ysabelle?”

If it worked with Ysabelle, she would not have come to plead with him, even forced herself to drink so
much alcohol. “I know that you are close to Ysabelle, Mister Josiah. As long as you help me, I’m sure
Ysabelle will forgive my mother.” “If you were not such a b*tch in beating Ysabelle up last night,
perhaps, she might even forgive you, but now…” He sneered and said, “I’m not sure she will.”

“Mister Josiah, what do I need to do for you to help me?” Meredith held his knees and gently shook
them. Her tears streamed down her face. “As long as you say it, I’ll do it.”

“Stop crying.” He looked at her tear-stricken face with disgust. He hated that she used tears as a
weapon, yet it was a tried-and-true method for him.



Meredith immediately wiped her tears away and stopped her tears from falling. To go on stage, she
wore eye makeup. At that moment, the tears smudged her make-up terribly.

Meredith did not need to see to know how terrible she looked at that moment. She got up with difficulty.
“I’ll…I’ll go wash up.” Because she had been kneeling for too long, she stumbled and fell on his lap.
Josiah furrowed his brows. The detest on his face was even more intense. “I’m…I’m sorry.” Meredith
held onto him and stood up once again. She fumbled toward the bathroom.

The moment she entered the bathroom, the alcohol in her stomach started gushing out. She hugged
the toilet bowl and hurled. Her tears which she stopped with difficulty came falling again as she puked.

Seeing how wretched she looked in the mirror, she cried heartbreakingly.

The man outside did not even take pity on her. He did not even cast her a concerning glance. Why was
she still hoping for a man like him to help her?

She must be daydreaming. : Meredith thought she could give up at any time. She slumped to the
ground. Perhaps she had drank too much, she was so drunk she could not open her eyes.

Gradually, she started losing consciousness.

Josiah noticed that she did not come out of the bathroom for a long time. He suspected that she was
deliberately hiding inside.

He never thought that the moment he pushed the door open, he saw her asleep by the corner.

There was nowhere to release his anger, so he kicked her twice. “Meredith. Stop playing dead. Get up
and continue.

“Didn’t you say that you have something to say to me? Get up right now and say it to me!” Josiah
kicked her twice more, but Meredith still did not come around.







“You’re so weak, yet you want to play with me? You overestimate your powers,” He coldly spat, turned
around, and headed out of the bathroom.

Everyone in the room has left. Josiah was about to leave too.

He just opened the door of the room when Meredith’s cries could be heard coming from the bathroom.
“Joe, don’t go. I’ll explain…I’ll explain…”

Josiah turned around and headed back to the bathroom.

Meredith was not conscious, she remained in the same position at the corner of the bathroom, only
with the addition of two lines of tears on her face. “Meredith, were you calling for me?” He bent down
and pinched her chin. “What right do you have to call my name? Hmm?” He used a lot of strength,
Meredith was hurt, she opened her eyes slowly.





In blurriness, she saw Josiah’s face, but she could not see the expressions on his face or the disgust
he had for her.

It was like he was the young man she knew back then. “Joe! You’re here!” Meredith supported herself
against the corner of the wall and stood up. Then, her legs turned to jelly, and she fell into Josiah’s
arms. “Joe, take me away, please? I’m cold…” The moment her body fell toward him, Josiah
instinctively caught her. Her familiar scent flooded his senses. He never pushed her away but instead
picked her up in his arms and headed toward the door of the room.

Seeing Josiah carrying Meredith back, Lily was extremely stunned. She followed Josiah upstairs while
asking, “Sir, what happened to Ma’am? Is she alright?” Josiah stopped in his tracks, turned back, and
glared at her. “There is no ma’am here. She’s not my wife either.”

Lily immediately hit her mouth. “I’m sorry, sir. I misspoke.”

“Then…” Lily continued, “Do you want me to look after Miss Meredith? I can…”

“No need!” A woman like that did not deserve care from anyone else. She was only worthy of being
defiled by a thousand men, then thrown into the corner of the bathroom!

He did not understand what had happened to him a moment ago, taking Meredith back to the mansion.
The anger in him raged stronger. He initially wanted to put her on the bed, but he threw her on the floor.
With a thud, Meredith’s head hit the floor. She let out a muffled grunt in pain and got sober too.

She groggily got up from the ground and scanned her surroundings. She asked, “Where am I?”

Josiah sneered and looked at her. “Meredith, this is the room where you had an affair with Yoel, have
you forgotten it so quickly?”



“Affair?” Meredith was stunned. Then, she shook her head violently. “No! I did not have an affair, I did
not! Joe, you have to believe me. I did not have an affair…”

Meredith got up and hugged her hands around his neck. “Joe, you have to believe me…”

Josiah shoved her to the ground in disgust. “Don’t touch me with your dirty body!”

Meredith exclaimed in pain.

Josiah’s anger was not relieved. He picked her up once again. “You didn’t have an affair, is that so?
Then where did that bastard of a child of yours come from? Don’t forget, every time we did it, we wore
protection!”

“Bastard of a child…” Meredith shook her head. “No. Nia is not a bastard. Nia is not…Nia is still waiting
for me at the hospital.”

She pushed him away and staggered out of the room. “Nia, don’t be afraid. Mommy is coming to see
you.” However, she could not open the door of the bedroom no matter how she tried.
