Chapter 697
Josiah was angry, yet he could not do anything about it.
Meredith worked at the hospital the entire morning. When she was having lunch with her colleagues in the
afternoon, she received a call from the doctor.
She was initially a little nervous that something might have happened to Josiah. When she heard the doctor say that
Josiah was not willing to have lunch, she relaxed.
“Relax, he won’t starve by skipping a meal,” Meredith said coldly.
The doctor on the other end of the line turned to look at Josiah before saying, “Ma’am, not only is he not eating his
lunch, but he is also not taking his medicine. Sigh, how could he get better after such a serious injury if he doesn’t
take his medicine?”
“Why is he not taking his medicine?” Meredith asked.
“Mister Josiah said that he was not feeling well, he can’t swallow,” The doctor said helplessly, “Perhaps the wound is
starting to hurt. I’ve already given him a shot of painkillers. I hope that he can eat.”
“Okay, give him a shot of paink

“Can’t you see I’m dealing with emails?” Josiah had already lowered his head and started working. He was working

Meredith knew that he was doing it on purpose, but she did not want to continue with him, so she obediently fed the
porridge to him. “Sir, please open up.”
Did you make it yourself?”
“Of course not. Lily made them,” She instinctively denied it.
She was determined not to let him know that she woke up early in the morning to make him the porridge.
“How did I not know that Lily has such great cooking skills?” Josiah said calmly, “Miss Meredith, you don’t have to
hide it. I won’t be cocky.”
Meredith gripped the spoon tighter. She held back. That jerk. He could barely hide the amusement in his eyes, yet
he said he would not be cocky. Meredith fed him spoon by spoon and finished the porridge.

order you, Miss Meredith, I could get Her Highness to speak on my behalf.” “Josiah,” Meredith gritted her teeth. “Is
this the reason why you want Nia to come to the hospital to see you?”
Of course, Josiah did not mean that. He said, “No, I just purely missed her.”
Meredith could not be bothered to bicker with him.”Forget about it. I’ve finished feeding you breakfast. Rest well,
Mister Josiah.”
“Are you still going to work?” Josiah looked at her.
“Mainly because you seem like you’re fine. I don’t need to take leave to stay here with you, right?” Meredith said,
“Mister Josiah, don’t worry. I will bring Nia over in the afternoon. I’ll also make the same oatmeal porridge for you
tomorrow morning.”
Meredith measured him up. “I believe that you’ll be fine, Mister Josiah.”
Josiah was angry, yet he could not do anything about it.

“Okay, give him a shot of painkillers first,” Meredith said.
The doctor wanted to say something else, when someone called Meredith, “Doctor Meredith, come over and help

Meredith immediately responded, hung up the call, and walked over to help her colleagues with the food tray.
“Let’s sit here.” Melody, her colleague, pointed at empty seats by the corner. “Okay.” Meredith followed her over
and sat down.
While eating her meal, she was a little worried. She was thinking whether Josiah, that jerk, really could not eat his
meal and medicine. Did he eat or not?
While thinking about that, she quickened her eating. Melody looked at her with displeasure. “Meredith, why are you
eating so quickly? Clara and the rest of them are still looking after the office.”
“I have something on, so I want to eat quicker.” Meredith gobbled up a few mouthfuls before putting her utensils
down and saying, “Melody, help me keep my tray. I have something urgent going on.”
“Someone in my family is not feeling well. I have to rush over there,” Meredith said this at the same time vanishing
in sight.
While Melody was still confused, Sherri came with her tray and sat opposite her, while looking in the direction in
which Meredith left.
“She is a sugar mommy to a good-looking babyface, so she doesn’t have the mood to work.” Sherri was extremely
displeased, yet she was jealous that a woman with ruined looks could still marry a man who was more handsome
than a model.
