Still Loving You NonethelessEN By Snow De Eira Chapter 869Chapter 869
“Then why are you willing to see me and Edith?”
“You came all the way to visit me even when you’re injured, it would be wrong of me to not allow you to
come in,” Josiah pulled into a smile and said to Meredith, “take a seat, Mrs. Larson.”
His words were lamented with sarcasm.
“Thank you,” Meredith replied, “but I’m not tired. I’ll just stand here.”
“Don’t tell me that you’re planning to leave after two minutes? What’s the point in coming all the way
here then?” Josiah moved his gaze onto Charlier and asked, “Or is it that Charlie doesn’t want to stay
longer?”
“I’m fine with anything.” Charlie then handed Josiah the bouquet of sunflowers. “Right, this is for you,
Josiah. Edith and I picked the flowers from our garden. Hope you’ll like it.”
Taking a glance at the fully-bloomed sunflowers in Charlie’s hands, he said, “Mrs. Larson must have
known that I prefer rose bushes instead. Why are you giving me sunflowers instead? Don’t tell me that
you don’t have any rose bushes planted in your garden.”
Josiah then looked at Meredith. “The rose bushes are growing well in my garden. Would you both like
to visit my place and take a look at them?”
Meredith of course understood what Josiah was trying to imply.
The rose bushes had been starting to grow well in the last two years.
It was Nia who had told her.Nia even wondered why they did not have any rose bushes in their garden, as rose bushes were her
favorite flowers too.
“We’ll drop by when we have the time,” Charlie responded.
Josiah took the flower bouquet from Charlie and then handed it to Meredith. “Could you please arrange
them in a vase for me? Thank you.”
Meredith took a glance at Charlie and then rejected Josiah. “I don’t think I’ll do a good job in arranging
them. Perhaps you could ask Yoseph instead.”
Josiah had no choice but to put the flowers aside.
For the sake of not wanting Charlie to misunderstand anything, Meredith chose to talk less.
But Josiah and Charlie had never been close, hence there was not much for them to talk about. Even if
there was, it would be sarcastic remarks.
Meredith had a sudden realization that they should not have visited Josiah in the first place. She should
have convinced Charlie not to come.
In the end, Meredith held Charlie’s hand in hers and asked, “Charlie, should we head home now that
we’ve got to see Josiah?”
novelbin“Sure.” Charlie held her hand then smiled at Josiah and said, “Rest well, Josiah. We’ll get going now.”
Staring at their hands that were held together, Josiah felt something welling up in his chest.
Meredith nodded and pushed Charlie out of the ward.
It was after Meredith and Charlie had left, that Yoseph walked into the ward.“Are you okay, Sir?” Yoseph was slightly concerned to see Josiah’s gloomy expression.
No one could be fine when the person that they had longed to see finally showed up, only with
someone else.
“Have they left?” Josiah asked flatly.
“Yes,” Yoseph replied.
All of a sudden, Josiah pulled away the tubes that were inserted in his hand, got off the bed, and ran
out the door.
“Sir, what are you doing?” Yoseph was startled by Josiah and quickly caught up to him, “Sir, you still
have to take your IV drip!”
But Josiah had already run out of the ward and he was heading toward the lift.
Meredith was about to enter the lift with Charlie when someone grabbed her by her wrist. Meredith was
startled. Before she knew it, she was dragged to the hallway on the opposite side.
