Chapter 923 “Charlie!”
“I don’t want to listen anymore.” Charlie picked up the earplugs and stuffed them into both of his ears.
Meredith was speechless. Seeing that he had such an attitude, she had no choice but to give up on persuading him
for the time being.
When she returned to the study, her phone rang.
She saw it was Josiah who called when she picked up her phone and she hung up the call without even thinking
about it at all.
When her phone rang again, she directly blocked his number.
After a while, her phone rang again and it was an unfamiliar number this time. Meredith could tell by making a
guess that it was Josiah who called, so she blocked the number once again.
Finally, her phone stopped ringing.
On the other end of the call, after Josiah was blocked continuously a few times, he gradually began to feel anxious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven Mister Yoseph, who was reporting to him about work, was distracted. Finally, it was Mister Yoseph who asked
him with concern, “Mister Josiah, do you need to take a break for a while?”
Josiah did not answer his question but gave him an order, “Go find out if Meredith went to her company to work
today.”
Mister Yoseph did not ask any further and immediately turned around to do as he was told.
He came back very quickly and reported to him, “Mister Josiah, I’ve made a call to the people at Leightons just now.
Miss Meredith did not go to the company today.”
“It looks like she is still at home,” Josiah muttered.
“Mister Josiah, are you worried about Miss Meredith?”
“With Charlie’s temper now, he certainly wouldn’t spare her.” He sighed helplessly, “That silly woman, however, just
could not move on from him because of that bit of kindness Charlie had shown her in the past.”
“Mister Josiah, Miss Meredith is indeed a person with such pure and kind nature.”
That was right. This is her true nature. Otherwise, he would not have liked her so much either.
Seeing that he stood up from his leather chair, Mister Yoseph asked, “Where are you going, Mister Josiah?
“I’m going to Charlie’s mansion to take her away.”
He could not let that foolish woman pay for his impulsive behavior last night.
“What if you can’t take her away? You would only bring disaster to Miss Meredith if you go over now, would you
not?” Mister Yoseph said seriously, “Mister Josiah, what bothers Charlie the most is your feelings for Miss Meredith.
If both you and Miss Meredith are in love with each other and have the same thoughts, then it would be easier.
However, she is not willing to cooperate with you.”
If Meredith was willing to cooperate with him, she would have directly left with him.
Of course, Josiah knew about that. However, he knew well that Meredith must be having a hard time at
that moment.
He desperately wanted to barge into Charlie’s mansion at that moment and rescue her out of there.
“Mister Josiah, why don’t you find someone else to go and have a look at the situation,” Mister Yoseph suggested
Josiah gave it a thought and ordered, “Get that assistant by Meredith’s side over.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGoldie was Meredith’s assistant, so it would be easier for her to meet Meredith.
After all, Charlie only restricted Meredith from going out to meet with Josiah. He did not restrict her freedom to
interact with anyone else and interfere with her work.
After Goldie finished reporting to her about work, she said with hesitation, “Miss Meredith, there’s something that
I’m unsure if I should be telling you.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Well. It’s just that… Mister Josiah from the Shelby Group had asked me to go over today.”
“Stop it.” Meredith directly cut her off.
She did not want to hear that man’s name at all. After all, it was because of him that she was locked up there at
that moment.
Even though…she was also responsible as she should not have drunk recklessly.
“Miss Meredith, I just wanted to tell you that it seemed like Mister Josiah…cared for you quite a bit. That’s why he
purposely asked me to go over and asked me to come and take a look at your current situation.”
