Chapter 75 “Meredith Leighton, I thought you knew well about the fact that I’m not willing to share you
with someone else.”
Lifting up her chin with his hand, Josiah studied the burn scars on her face. “It doesn’t matter that you’ve
betrayed me, that we’re divorced, or the fact that you looked absolutely hideous, you’ll remain as my
person, do you hear me?” Meredith was rendered speechless.
Josiah was no different than the rest of the men – no one else is to have what they do not have. With a
sudden change in his tone, Josiah ordered, “Get over here and treat my wound.”
He then walked into a lounging room.
Entering the room with him, with tears still in her eyes, Meredith sneered, “You want me to treat your
wound?”
“You’re not willing?” “Aren’t you worried that I’d injure you again?” “I want to see if you have the guts to

“Are you sure?” asked Meredith.
“Yeah.” Josiah closed his eyes.
Meredith took out a first-aid box from the cabinet. Just when she was about to treat his wound, her
phone rang. Upon seeing her mother calling, Meredith answered quickly, “Mom, did you manage to find
Nia? I heard that she passed out. Is she alright?”
On the other end of the call was Alayna who sounded apologetic. “I’m so sorry Edith. I was all over the
place just now and I forgot to let you know that I’ve found Nia. One of the nurses found her and brought
her back. The doctor said she’s okay now.”
“Really?” Meredith sounded relieved.
“Yes, darling. How are you feeling? Better?”
“I’m fine, Mom,” Meredith added, “Keep a close eye on Nia, and don’t let her go roaming around on her
own.”
“I will. Don’t worry.”
It was when she ended the call that she realized that Josiah had his gaze fixed on her.
She avoided meeting his gaze and started looking through the first-aid box.
Josiah mocked, “Seems to me that you’ve got a happy family.”
Anger rippled through Meredith us she snapped, “We’d have been inuch happier if it wasn’t for you and
your harassment and torments.”
“Do you still not understand why I’m doing this?”
“Josiah Shelby, I’ve explained myself countless times and I don’t want to explain anymore.”
Taking a deep breath before looking up at him, Meredith said, “I’ll change the dressing now, please
unbutton your shirt.”
Josiah though did not move an inch. It was obvious that he was waiting for her to undress him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith no other options, Meredith put down the bottle of ointment in her hand and started unbuttoning his
shirt.
But for some reason, Meredith found his shirt hard to unbutton.
“What’s wrong? Shouldn’t you be really good at this since you’ve been serving countless men at Luna
Club?” Josiah mocked.
Meredith shot him a glare before leaning forward, using her teeth to unbutton his shirt. She was
practically lying on his chest. There was an incredible tension growing between the both of them. Josiah
looked down at her and noticed the scar behind her ear. He remembered that she had a mole there.
Back then when they were still together , Josiah had always kissed her on the back of her ear where the
mole was.
It was one of his strange obsessions.
But the mole was no longer there and she too was no longer his wife.
If it was not because of her unique smell, Josiah would have never guessed that Meredith was the same
person that she was three years ago
