Still Loving You Nonetheless Chapter 426

Chapter 426Chapter 426 “You weren’t friends with her from the start. But she made up stories, tried to steal your
husband, and even stalked you when we were at the resort. Judging by her character, I don’t think
she’d be grateful that you freed her, I’m sure she’d do worse to you.” “I don’t think that would happen.”
“You can’t be too sure,” replied Josiah. “But because of this, you’re asking her to spend eight to ten
years of her life in jail. Isn’t it a bit too cruel?” Seeing how Josiah was not willing to take a step back,
Meredith was rather taken aback.
She did not expect to see this cruel and ruthless side of Josiah who only showered her with love.
And this was also the first time she felt slightly intimidated by him.
Noticing the look of terror in her eyes, Josiah could not help but be reminded of the days before she
lost her memories. It was as if every time they met, she had this same look on her face.
Back then, Meredith too was intimidated and frightened by him. Could it be that he was being too
ruthless?
But he would not take a step back just because she was intimidated by him. Staring into her eyes, he
said, “Edith, I don’t care what happens to others, I just need you to be safe. I’m only doing all this for
your sake and for the sake of this family. Do you understand me?” Josiah sounded sincere and
Meredith was actually convinced by him. “I do.” Meredith nodded. “There are some things in life where
being kind to them is only being cruel to ourselves. So, you can’t be kind to just anyone or believe in
what other people tell you.” Meredith suddenly got curious. “Joe, do you normally do the same and
think the same too?” “Yes,” He nodded and went on, “if not, how do I manage to lead such a big
company?” “But if that’s the case, wouldn’t a lot of people hate you? Or not want to be friends with
you?”
“What do you think?”Meredith tried to recall the dinner event they had the other day. Shaking her head, she said, “I don’t
think that’s the case. I realized that there are a lot of people who want to have a drink with you and
want to have a conversation with you.”
“Exactly. When you’re the best version of yourself, you’d naturally attract people to you.” But what he
lacked was a close friend.
When Meredith was at her peak, she used to be surrounded by people…but when she was in the rut,
those so-called friends were nowhere to be seen. There was no point in having fair-weathered friends.
“Mm, I get it now.” Meredith nodded. “Do you still plan on pleading for Maeve?”
novelbin“Not anymore,” Meredith added, “because I have to protect myself and my family.” “That’s my girl.”
Josiah placed a kiss on her lips and put her down from his lap. “Alright now, we should get ready to
leave soon.” “Joe, are you coming with us to the funfair?” Meredith was surprised. “Of course. Am I
supposed to watch the house alone when you and Caden are out having fun?” “Okay, let’s go together
then.” Meredith walked upstairs with him. “Let’s get changed.” By the time they came downstairs,
Caden was already waiting for them. Caden was excited to be wearing the new clothes that Meredith
had gotten for him.
Meredith walked toward him and helped adjust his clothes. “Don’t you look handsome with the new
clothes?” “Thanks, Miss Meredith! I really like this shirt that you got for me,” said Caden.
