Chapter 251Chapter 251
Josiah guessed that Meredith who was lying in the hospital would not have any new clothes to wear.
The floral dress would suit her perfectly and at the first sight of the dress, Josiah thought of her
instantly. “It seems like Sir is quite fond of Miss Merelyn,” Penny said to Lily, “right Lily, have you met
Miss Merelyn before? Is she pretty?” “Um…” Lily looked toward Josiah. She did not know what to say.
“I’m getting it for Yena,” Josiah took the dress and handed it to an employee. “Size M.” “Why are you
getting a dress for a person in a coma? It’s not like she can wear it.” Josiah’s grandmother was
rendered speechless.
“I’ll leave it by her bedside to make her happy. What’s wrong with that?”
“Did you even check the price of the dress?” Josiah’s grandma took the dress away and said,” we’re
not doing charity. Why are you being so generous to an outsider? We’re already been paying for her
medical bills for so many years, and you’re buying her clothes now?”
Josiah’s grandmother did not care about how Josiah wanted to spend his money, she simply hated the
fact that her grandson’s obsession with a comatose person.
Hence, she was unhappy.
“Yena only ended up this way because of Meredith and Meredith was my ex-wife. Hence, it is Shelby’s
responsibility to take care of Yena.” Josiah took the dress from his grandmother and passed it to the
employee again.
“Plus, I am already thirty years old, Grandma. Why do I need your approval to buy a dress? Aren’t you
being a little too unreasonable?” Josiah’s grandmother was simmering in rage. “Are you trying to goagainst me?” “You’re overthinking it, Grandma. I don’t hate you.” Josiah had Lily buy the dress and took
the bag from the employee.
“I don’t think you want to have me around, so I’ll take my leave now,” He then said to Lily,” you guys
can go on without me. Get something to eat on the second floor if you want to.”
He then added, “And Grandma, just buy whatever you like, I’ll pay for all of them.”
Until Josiah was out of her sight, Josiah’s grandmother then said, “What was that? Is he leaving me
here all alone?”
novelbinMeredith ordered takeout for breakfast.
After breakfast, she rested in bed. One of the nurses came in to give her an injection and then handed
her a medical bill.
The nurse scanned the room and asked, “Why haven’t I seen any of your family members around?”
“…I only have a three-year-old daughter and no one else.” “You should at least have a friend, right?”
The nurse added, “Our hospital has a rule that all patients should at least have a guardian as we don’t
have enough staff in the hospital to cater to every patient.”
“And the medical bill, are you planning to settle it at the counter all by yourself?” .
“I can but…” Meredith sounded conflicted, “I don’t have any money with me.”
“Sorry?” The nurse exclaimed, “Miss Meredith, don’t you know that you have to pay before receiving
treatment? And you’re given expensive medication. Do you expect the hospital to bear all of your
costs?”
“I’m sorry, I…”“What’s the use of apologizing? You better come up with a way to pay the bills, if not, we’d have to kick
you out.”
“Kicking someone out just because of that small amount of money?” Josiah’s voice was heard.
Meredith and the nurse looked toward the door at the same time. The nurse was slightly stunned by
Josiah’s looks. She then turned to look at Meredith again.
The nurse wondered how someone like Meredith was related to someone like Josiah.
Could they be friends? At the thought of this possibility, the nurse quickly put on a smile and asked,
“And you are? Sorry, I’m from the morning shift, so…”
