Chapter 783
Lily always thought that Josiah and Meredith would reconcile sooner or later. Especially after seeing Nia return, she
believed it even more so.
She never expected this outcome.
Lily looked at Josiah and saw a hit of disappointment in his eyes.
From the way they argued, it was most likely unsalvageable.
Sigh.
Charlie was transferred out of the intensive care unit the next day.
After the anesthesia wore off, he was in unbearable pain, but when he saw Meredith’s worried looking face, he
comforted her on the contrary, “Meredith, don’t worry. I’m fine.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeredith did not dare to tell him that his legs were crippled. She only bore through her tears and nodded.
Mary looked at him and felt even worse, so much so she could not say a single word. She simply found an excuse
and left.
“By the way, Meredith, are you alright?” Charlie suddenly remembered that Meredith had fallen to the ground too
during the crash. “I’m fine.” Meredith shook her head. She grabbed his hand and said movingly, “Charlie, why were
you so foolish to only push me away? If you had swerved aside quicker, how good that would be.”
If Charlie did not choose to rescue her in the nick of time, she would most probably be the person in bed at that
moment.
“Didn’t I already say? I’m fine.” Charlie looked at her and forced a smile, saying, “Truth be told, seeing how worried
you are for me, I’m relieved and happy.” He pointed at his legs, which hurt, “Looks like my legs hurting is all worth
it.” “Charlie, stop talking,” Meredith interrupted him. “She quickly got up from the chair, turned around, and
entered the bathroom.
She could not bear to let Charlie see her tears or see her being upset, because she was afraid that he would realize
that his legs had been crippled. She was afraid that he could not come to terms with it.
She collected her emotions in the bathroom before walking out.
Charlie had already fallen asleep. Seeing how tightly his brows creased even in his sleep, she knew how much pain
he was in.
Meredith sat by his bed with him for a while before walking out of the ward.
Mary was sitting on a chair by the door. Seeing Meredith coming out, she immediately stood up. “Where are you
going?”
Although Mary hated Meredith, Charlie needed Meredith the most at that moment. She could not let Meredith
leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeredith naturally understood Mary’s intentions. She consoled her, “Mrs. Larson, don’t worry. I’ve said that no
matter what Charlie becomes, I’ll never abandon him. He is asleep at that moment. I’ll head back to make him
some oatmeal porridge.”
Only then did Mary let Meredith go. Sure enough, when Charlie woke up and did not see Meredith, the first thing he
asked was,” Where is Meredith?”.
Mary fussed around with Charlie’s covers. She said curtly, “She had already hurt you so badly, yet you’re still asking
about her.”
“Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? How has she hurt me?” “I heard what you two said just now. You
pushed her away in the nick of time, which was why you were knocked over,” She said fumingly, “I initially just
thought that Meredith is not good for you, bringing you bad luck. I never thought that not only was she bringing you
bad luck, but she also brought you harm.” Charlie furrowed his brows. “Mom, if you’re going to say that I’m going
to be unhappy.”
