Still Loving You Nonetheless Chapter 1257

Chapter 1257Chapter 1257 "Or perhaps the child is not getting treated at the hospitals in Delmas Town."
Meredith paused before saying, "Do you want to show these to Ivy?"
"I don’t think it's a good idea to let her know that we followed her, right? I'm worried that it may ruin our plan."
"But we can't let Ivy keep searching blindly like that, right?"
Pausing, Meredith added, "Why not do this? I'll tell her about it. Since it is normal for me to be following her."
"How so?"
"Um..." Meredith adjusted Josiah's head so that he was looking at her and said, "because she's trying to steal
my man from me and I have to keep my eyes on her."
"Don’t worry, I know what I'm doing.”
Giving a light pat on his face, she said, "Wait here. I'll go meet her."
"She's making clam chowder for my mother, isn't she?" "Oh, you're right. I'll go see her in a bit then."
Ivy had always been a good cook. While they were living abroad, she was in charge of making meals
for Mrs.
Shelby.
She cooked up the clam chowder swiftly and served the soup in a bowl for Mrs. Shelby. The entire
house was filled with a delicious smell.
Placing the bowl onto a tray, Ivy served the tray to Mrs. Shelby. "Mrs. Shelby, the soup is ready."
Mrs. Shelby tried the soup."How do you like it?”
"Not bad," Mrs. Shelby took another spoonful of the soup then looked at Ivy and asked, "You spent a
day out with Joe, so tell me, how did it go?"
"It was alright."
"But why was he holding hands with Meredith when they got back?"
Ivy remained silent for a few seconds before replying, " Joe finds it hard to accept me for now. But don't
worry, Mrs. Shelby, I will do my best."
With a loud thud, Mrs. Shelby slammed the spoon against the table.
Ivy felt her heart drop.
"Is that all you could do? Telling me that you'll do your best? But where are the results? Is doing your
best going around visiting the hospital?"
Ivy slightly clenched her hands into a fist.
Feeling guilty, she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Shelby..."
Mrs. Shelby slapped Ivy across her face.
Ivy closed her eyes and gritted her teeth tightly to hold back the pain.
"Ivy Landers, do you really think that I'd be stupid enough to let that little b*stard get treated in any of Delmas
Town's hospitals? That child doesn’t have long to live anyway, do you really think that I'd let the child get
treated?"Ivy felt her legs go weak and she finally collapsed onto the floor.
Looking at how Ivy was devastated, Mrs. Shelby scoffed, "I've already made myself clear that the child will die
if you don't follow my orders."
Tears rushed out of her eyes but she did not plead with Mrs. Shelby, and instead, she uttered softly, "Mrs.
Shelby, aren't you even terrified that Josiah would hate you for being so ruthless and cruel?"
"Do you really think that I’d care?” Mrs. Shelby scoffed and went on, "But feel free to go ahead and tell him.
We'll see who ends up much worse."
Ivy lifted her head and asked, "Mrs. Shelby, why won’t you let the child be treated? She's terribly ill."
"Shouldn't you have the answers?"
"I've really tried my best,” Ivy started sobbing, "I also don't know why I'm this useless to the point that I can't
even seduce a guy, I..."
