Chapter 275Chapter 275
Even though he had yet to acknowledge that the baby was his and neither did he want Meredith to use
the baby as leverage to return to the Shelby family, he still went cold with fury.
Who did Meredith think she was to have an abortion?
Who gave her the right to get rid of the baby? Josiah was furious at the thought that Meredith had treated
his bloodline as a mere toy, getting rid of it whenever she wanted. Fury twisted inside of him as he
clenched his fists tightly. “Can’t you see that Merelyn only wanted the baby because I was not yet back
for her? She only needed a baby to get your attention. And now that I’m back, the baby meant nothing to
her, and naturally, there was no reason for her to keep the baby.”
Glancing at Josiah’s fists that were clenched tightly, Zade continued to provoke him. “Mister Josiah, how
far did you think you could go by forcing a woman to stay by your side using your power? If I were you, I
wouldn’t have done something so low and barbaric.”
“Low? I’m guessing you haven’t seen enough, have you?” Josiah still looked calm and composed. He
then said to Mister Wesley, “Throw him out of the hospital and don’t ever let him step foot into the
hospital again.” He then walked away without even looking back. “Yes, Sir,” Mister Wesley responded.
Zade flinched. He had forgotten that the hospital was owned by the Shelby Group. “Sir, do you want to
walk out of here on your feet or should I get someone to throw you out?” Mister Wesley asked.
Zade glanced at him and then walked out of the hospital.
novelbinJosiah initially planned to visit his grandmother but he stormed to the ob-gyn department instead.
Meredith’s doctor was walking out of Meredith’s ward. “Sir.”Josiah came to a halt and asked, “Meredith Leighton lost the baby?”
“Yes. She took pills that caused the miscarriage. It was already too late when we found out…”
Before the doctor could even finish her sentence, Josiah already charged into the room.
Meredith, who was hiding underneath the sheets, crying her heart out, suddenly came to a stop when
she heard the door being pushed open. She felt tension in the air.
“Meredith Leighton!” Josiah strode toward her bed and dragged her from beneath the covers.
Meredith, who had just undergone surgery, fell to the floor. She cried out in pain as tears rushed down
her cheeks.
Josiah grabbed her chin and seethed, “You got an abortion?”
“It wasn’t me…” Meredith cried. With tears rolling down her cheeks, she denied, “I didn’t do it
“Are you even human?” Josiah slapped Meredith across the face, hard, causing Meredith to hit her face
against the cupboard.
It seemed as if Josiah had used all the strength in him.
Meredith was stunned. There was a cut on her forehead. Cowering and shaking in fear, she wanted to
explain herself but she could say nothing because of the pain she was in. Josiah lifted her up from the
floor and glared at her. “Is the Shelby family’s bloodline a joke to you? Or some kind of trash that you can
get rid of when you don’t need it anymore? How could you kill the baby with just a few pills? Are you
even human? Do you even deserve to be a mother?”
At his words, Meredith opened her eyes slowly. “Josiah Shelby, I didn’t realize that you love the baby this
much. I thought you never wanted this child?” She then added bitterly, “I’m so sorry that I lost him…”
