Still Loving You Nonetheless Chapter 1129

Chapter 1129

Did she hate him? Of course, she did. However, she had no choice but to bury this hatred deep down for the sake of

Nia.

"Edith." Josiah walked toward her and held her shoulders with both his hands. "I really missed you very much."

Upon saying that, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Meredith was speechless.

When she felt the familiar breath and touch, Meredith struggled a little. "Josiah, don't be like that!"

Josiah was hurt by her once again. Even his gaze was exuding sadness deep within as he looked at her. "Edith, did

you only say what you said at the dining table just now to comfort Nia?"

Meredith did not answer his question. Instead, she stared at him and asked him in return, "Josiah, who was the one

who called you just now?"

A tinge of surprise flashed across Josiah's eyes. He clearly did not expect that she would suddenly ask about that.

He originally thought that it was just a coincidence that he made eye contact with her when he was answering the

call earlier, but it looked like she had already heard it.

"It's Ivy."

"Ivy?" Meredith was stunned for a while. "The heiress of the Landers Group in the past?"

"Yes."

"She..." Meredith did her best to recall this person.

The Landers Group had already gone bankrupt more than ten years ago. Before they went bankrupt, however, as

the apple of the Landerses' eyes, Ivy was considered to be somewhat popular.

Not only was Ivy's appearance pure and beautiful, but she was also very knowledgeable. In short, she was

outstanding in every way.

It could be said that it was only after the Landers Group went bankrupt and Ivy went out of the picture that the title

of the top socialite in Jehovah city landed on Meredith.

Therefore, why did Ivy, who had disappeared for more than ten years, get in contact with Josiah?

"I recalled that you seemed to be closest to Ivy and Liam in the past," she said.

Speaking of that, the bitterness deep within her could hardly be concealed.



Of course, Josiah could tell that, so he smiled and said, "It looks like Miss Meredith had always been paying quite a

lot of attention to me."

"It seemed like it was no longer a secret since a long time ago that I've started liking Mister Josiah since I was ten,

isn't it?"

"That's true." Josiah nodded.

Meredith looked at him. Seeing that he did not say anything else for a long time, she could not help but ask, "So

why exactly did she contact you this time?"

"She called me to tell me that my mother has returned to the country."

"Your mother?" Meredith was surprised again.

"Yes, my mother, the one who had abandoned me since I was very young." It was rare that a sense of sorrow

flashed across Josiah's deep-set eyes. "I also have no idea why she suddenly returned and why she still has the

cheek to contact me."

"Your mother is not your enemy. If she wasn't out of options, she never would have left you," Meredith said

miserably, "Mister Josiah, you've never experienced seeing your mother die before your eyes, so of course, you

can't feel that kind of pain and understand the importance of a mother."

Josiah did not expect that he would suddenly bring up her sorrow.

He hurriedly changed the topic. "I'm sorry, Edith. Regarding your mother, it's my fault."

"It's all in the past now." This was the phrase that she always used.

"It's all in the past now, but I still want to defend myself. I truly didn't deliberately force your mother to her death

back then. I was just too angry at you that I didn't lend her a hand and help you rescue her out of prison."

"Josiah, don't talk about it anymore. If you speak any further, I'm afraid that I would hate you to my bones."

Meredith's expression darkened.

All of these were sore spots, which were buried at the bottom of her heart, that she could not make peace with.

At any time, it would be possible for herself or others to bring it up, which would make her sad about it again.
