Chapter 334Chapter 334 Josiah‘s grandmother drank a spoonful of the soup and exclaimed, “It tastes lovely. You‘re
such a good cook,
Edith.”
Meredith was glad. “You really think so? Joe said the same too.”
“Of course, darling,” Josiah‘s grandmother glanced at Josiah who was standing by
the door, and added, “at least he still has a conscience in him to know when to praise you.”
“Did Joe not praise me last time?”
“He–” Before Josiah‘s grandmother could finish her sentence, Josiah cleared his
throat loudly and walked into the room.
“Grandma, Edith and I were finally able to have some peace, will you please not stir
up anything?”
Josiah‘s grandmother, of course, knew better than to cause an unnecessary scene.
She simply glanced sideways at Josiah and said, “Don‘t worry.
I wish for nothing but to see the both of you getting along well. And I hope you want
the same too.”
Josiah pulled Meredith into his arms. “We‘ll leave you to rest now, then.”
Josiah and Meredith were about to return to their bedroom when Jenny startedshouting urgently, “Sir, ma‘am is saying that her tummy is aching.” Josiah immediately rushed out of his
bedroom. “What did you say? What‘s wrong with grandma?”
“It might be the soup that she drank earlier. Ma‘am started complaining that her stomach feels unwell
not long after finishing the soup.” “Have you called for the doctor?”
“Yes, Sir.” Josiah rushed down the stairs. Meredith wanted to follow but was stopped by Jenny. “Ma‘am,
I think it’s best if you stay here.
novelbinMeredith pushed away Jenny‘s hand that was blocking her path. “Let me pass!” Irked, Jenny gritted her
teeth as she watched Meredith rushing down the stairs. Josiah‘s
grandmother was clutching her stomach, leaning on her side on the bed. She looked
like she was in a lot of pain. Josiah put his hand on her forehead and realized that
his grandmother was breaking out in cold sweat. He then asked, “Where‘s the
doctor? Why is he not here yet?”
“Sir, the doctor says he‘s reaching soon,” replied Penny.
“Grandma, are you okay?” Meredith sat on the bed next to Josiah‘s grandmother and said,” Are you
having a stomach ache? Would you let me help you massage it?”
“Miss Meredith, ma‘am might have eaten something wrong. Massaging it would not
help.”
“It does, it can help relieve the pain.” Meredith slowly turned Josiah‘s grandmotherover so that her back was leaning on the bed. She then placed her hands on her tummy and started
massaging Unexpectedly, Josiah‘s grandmother did feel slightly less
painful. “Are you feeling better, Granny?” Meredith asked, concerned. “A little…but it‘s still really
painful.” “Don‘t worry. You‘ll feel better after taking some medication.” The doctor finally showed up and
he immediately diagnosed that Josiah‘s grandmother had eaten something wrong.
“May I ask what malam had earlier?”
Penny immediately replied, “The same as usual and she was okay after her meal. But she started
getting tummy aches as soon as she drank the soup that Miss Meredith had given her.” Penny then
quickly explained herself, “Miss Meredith, I’m not trying to imply anything. I‘m just telling the doctor
what I know.” The doctor then turned to look at Meredith and asked, “May I know what‘s in the soup
that you made?” Meredith was caught off guard by the doctor‘s sudden questioning. She did not know
what to say. Josiah then said to Lily, “Is there
leftover soup? Bring it and show it to the doctor.”
