Chapter 1251
Seeing how Ivy was calm as if the man that she loved the most was not sitting next to her, being
intimate with another woman.
Meredith thought that if she was in Ivy's shoes, she would have flown off the handle the moment
she saw Josiah being intimate with another woman.
Meredith guessed that Ivy might have lied about how she had loved Josiah since she was young
or that she dreamt about wanting to get married to Josiah.
Even though she might be feeling low as she was paying respects to her parents on this day,
Meredith did not think that Ivy would not be affected by Josiah’s behavior at all.
Studying Ivy, Meredith could not hold back anymore.
She then asked, "Miss Ivy, would you like a sip of water? II
Ivy came back to her senses, looked at the water bottle, and shook her head. "I'm good,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthanks."
"There's warm water in here."
"I'm not thirsty. You can give it to Joe instead."
"Alright then." Meredith put away the water. She hesitated before asking, "Miss Ivy, you are good friends with Liam
and Joe, aren't you? Shouldn't Liam go back with you to visit your parents?"
Ivy froze slightly. She then said, "Is Liam back in Delmas Town? I didn't know about it."
Tm guessing so. He used to go back every year."
"Ah, I see," Ivy sounded calm, "but I haven't been in touch with him for years. There’s no need to hassle him with
this."
"Why would it be a hassle? Liam should have offered, don't you think so, Joe?"
Looking at Meredith, Josiah was rather confused. " There’s no such rule. I used to visit Ivy's parents as they were
really nice to me, plus, we've Cooper now."
"Hmm, that’s true." Meredith nodded.
Meredith took a quick glance at Ivy and did not say anything further.
After paying respects to Ivy's parents, Joe took a glance at Ivy who stood in front of her parent's gravesite, and said
to Meredith, "Let’s give her some space."
Meredith guessed that Ivy might want some alone time, hence she left with Josiah.
In the car, Josiah looked at Meredith and asked, "So, tell me, you found something out, haven't you?"
"No." Meredith shook her head.
"Then why did you bring up Liam into our conversation all of a sudden?"
Meredith had also been on his tail demanding to know if Liam went back to Delmas Town for the New Year.
"I was just simply curious. The three of you are best friends but she chose you instead."
"What do you mean by that?" Josiah was slightly irked, " Are you implying that Liam is better than I am?"
"Please forgive me for being straightforward, but I do think that Liam is better than you,"
Meredith went on bluntly, "Liam is well-tempered and more approachable than you are. He is
also rich, if it were me...”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeredith broke off.
Josiah leaned in close to her and said, "What's wrong? You too feel like you're eating your own
words now, don't you?"
"Aren't you the one who started liking me when you were in your teenage years?”
"I..." Meredith went on, "It's because I don't know you well. Later when I started getting to know
you, I realized that you weren't all that great and you were much harder to get along with
compared to Liam."
"You only think that way because Liam lent you a million dollars, no?"
"It's not like that...”
"What did you say?"
Sensing that Josiah was annoyed, she immediately corrected herself, "I mean, you're right. He
offered me a hand when I was at my lowest and that is why I think that Liam is a nice guy."
It was then Josiah moved away from her and warned, " Stop complimenting other guys in front
of me. I don’t like it."
