Chapter 772
Staring at the bottle of perfume in his hand, feelings of nervousness crept on her.
What was Josiah trying to imply? Why would he give her a bottle of perfume as a gift in this situation?
She took glances at Josiah and then at the perfume before taking the bottle into her hands, and sniffing it.
The perfume had an elegant smell to it, and it was a unique smell yet at the same time smelled somewhat familiar.
“I don’t know a lot about perfumes but this one smells good. It is no wonder this perfume is well-received by the
public,” She smiled and went on, “Meredith mentioned in an interview that the perfume was first launched
overseas. I’m sure she’s made a ton.”
Josiah was not here to discuss perfume with Yena. Instead, he asked, “Have you used this perfume before?”
“No, not that I remember.”

Yena froze,
Was this why he gave her this perfume?
And she had fallen into his trap foolishly, cutting off the last strings of relationship that she shared with him.
Yena did not expect that the secret that she had hidden for so long would be exposed this way.
Without the excuse that she saved him, she would mean nothing to Josiah.
And would the things that she was given be taken away as well?
“Sir, I did save you but Meredith came to help as well. You didn’t remember this because you had passed out,” Yena
tried to explain herself.
Josiah replied flatly, “I’ve talked to one of the old butlers who worked with the Leightons and she said that Meredith
caught a serious cold to save me. She even had pneumonia and ended up staying in the hospital for a month. And
because of this, you were able to pretend that you were the one who saved me.”
“I even heard that you didn’t even let your shoes get wet when I fell into the water, let alone the fact that you
actually jumped into the water to save me.”
Yena was at a loss for words.
Because Josiah was telling the truth.
Seeing how Yena was staying silent because of feeling guilty, anger rushed through him.” Miss Yena, you sure are
something else, aren’t you?!” Yena quickly explained herself, “Sir, please forgive me. I am really sorry. I wasn’t
thinking straight when I lied to you, I…”
“Seems like the only thing that you do best is saying that you’re sorry. You were the same two years ago and till this
day.”
Josiah cut her off coldly, “Do you think that your sorry would change anything? Are you able to bring Meredith back

Not only did he recognize the wrong person as his savior, he even hurt the wrong person. He had hurt and trampled
over the person that he should be most grateful for and the person that he should have loved and taken care of.
And in the end, he even forced her to walk out of his life.
And everything happened because of Yena’s lies. Josiah did not return to his house instead, he went to the old
residence. He knew that Charlie was taking Meredith back to meet the elders in his family. Hence, he had to be
there. When his car entered the driveway, he saw a girl in a princess dress running around in the yard, chasing
after butterflies.
It was his daughter, Nia.
Josiah had Walter pull over and he got down from the car. He still found it hard to believe that Nia, her daughter
that was always looking for him when she was sick at the hospital and when she moved into his house, would
actually forget about him.
Josiah reached out his hand and easily held the butterfly between his fingers.
Nia was stunned. Staring at the stranger in front of her, she smiled and said, “Uncle, can you please give me the
butterfly? I would like to keep it as a pet.” Nia was addressing him as…uncle.
