Chapter 1056
Meredith asked instead, “If not, what do you think I should do? Throw myself into his arms because I‘m so grateful
for him and just get along with him?”
“Yeah, like friends do. Can you not do that?”
Meredith laughed bitterly, “For two people who loved each other and yet at the same time hurt each other to be
friends? I can‘t do that.”
“Miss Meredith, I don‘t think it‘s because of this reason that you can’t do that, it‘s because you still have Mister
Charlie in your heart, right?”
“Perhaps so. In any case, this is how it‘s going to be between Josiah and I for the rest of our life.”
She put on her clothes, picked up her bag from the sofa and said, “Let‘s go.”
Walking past the counter for Sweet Reminiscence, the group had dispersed and the employees were cleaning up
the scene.
Because a handful of perfume bottles were broken, the entire place was filled with the smell of Sweet
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtReminiscence.
There was even a small pool of blood on the floor. Meredith
guessed that it was from Josiah.
At the thought that Josiah hurt his forehead, Meredith finally felt a bit guilty. Because she did not even ask about his
injury.
It was not because she was cold–blooded, it was simply because she did not think that the time was right.
Josiah had claimed that he loved her and wanted to be with her, so Meredith planned on showing her cold and
ruthless side to him, so that he would give up.
But Josiah did not really care about this.
Mister Wesley, however, felt aggrieved for Josiah. While treating Josiah‘s wound, he grumbled, “Sir, you really
shouldn‘t do all this anymore. This will only lower your worth and Miss Meredith will only be less interested in you.”
Josiah glanced at him. “How am I lowering my worth? Why don‘t I think that way?”
“Sir, we can‘t just shower women with love and put up with everything they do. We should use the carrot and stick
approach.”
Wesley cleared his throat and said, “Just like how you treated her back then. And that was why she stuck to you like
glue, isn‘t it?”
“It was because she needed a favor from me.”
To save Nia.
“It‘s not like that, Sir. Do you know what ‘play hard to get‘ is?”
“Not sure.”
Mister Wesley wanted to explain when Mister Yoseph gave a light push on his arm. “Leave it, do you really think that
Sir doesn‘t know about this? It‘s simply because Sir doesn‘t want to do it.”
“But it‘s obvious that his approach is wrong,” Mister Wesley said to Mister Yoseph, “you‘ve been in more than ten
relationships, haven‘t you? Don‘t you agree with what I say?”
Mister Yoseph‘s face changed. “Are you trying to pick a fight, Wesley? Since when have I been in that many
relationships?”
“Fine. There was a loud truck of women who liked you and went after you, but you liked neither of them. Instead,
you were attracted to a woman who didn‘t care much about you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWesley went on, “And do you know why?”
“Because she‘s gorgeous and she‘s good at her work, duh.”
Yoseph shrugged his shoulders.
“And don‘t you think Sir too is good–looking and he‘s good at his job?”
“Also, the sales director of Johnson’s Group is pretty and she‘s good at her work too, so why don‘t you want her?
Because she had been sticking to you like a gum, showing up everyday and just won‘t give you space, and in the
end, you were annoyed by her.”
Mister Wesley suddenly felt Josiah‘s cold gaze on him.
He felt chills run down his spine and immediately explained himself, “Sir, please don’t be mistaken, I‘m not saying
that you‘re like a gum, I...”
He then slapped his lips and went on, “I‘m sorry. All I wanted to say is that when we go after someone, we shouldn‘t
keep clinging onto them. It will only backfire.”
Josiah then shifted his gaze onto Yoseph. “So why didn‘t you like the sales director of the Johnsons Group? Simply
because she was too clingy?”
