Chapter 888
Meredith also turned to look at Charlie.
Charlie’s face turned blue once more.
“Charlie..” Meredith said hesitantly.
Charlie suddenly sneered, “Josiah, are you asking me to push the blame for the accident to a woman? You sure are
smart.”
“You can continue thinking that I was the one who did it,” Josiah said calmly, “but Yena has to stay inside.”
Before Meredith could say anything, he looked at her and added, “Treat it as if you are helping her. After all, if she is
out and about, she will do foolish things sooner or later.”
Josiah left.

Yena was a completely changed person. She had become distorted and vile. Letting her out and about would only
let her continue making mistakes. It would be better if she was locked up to receive some guidance.
“Charlie, Josiah isn’t wrong. Yena was the one who got someone to crash into you. Her target was me, but no one
expected that you would push me away at the last minute, so…”
“I don’t believe it!” Charlie glared at her angrily, “Meredith, you made him stay just to put on this act for me, right?”
“Of course, not.” Meredith never thought that he would think that way. She said anxiously, “I have never told you
the real culprit because I was afraid that you would lock Yena up, but I never thought that you would attack Josiah.
I’m sorry, Charlie. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have just thought about Yena and dismissed your feelings.”
Charlie looked at Meredith’s anxious face. He could not help but think back about what Josiah said a moment ago.
Everyone could see that Meredith only stayed by his side because of guilt. If it were not because of that, he was no
match for Josiah at all.
Also, under Josiah’s constant harassment, how long more could Meredith bear?
Thinking about how Meredith could be taken away by Josiah, he slowly calmed down. His tone turned gentler too.
“I’m sorry, Meredith. I know that you were being nice. I shouldn’t have misinterpreted your intentions.”
“Charlie, it’s good that you could think that way.”
Meredith secretly let out a sigh of relief. She asked, “Right, about Yena…”
“Josiah is right. My legs were crippled because of her.”
Meredith basically understood what he meant by that. He was not going to let Yena go just because she was Qira’s
sister. It seemed like Yena was definitely staying in prison.
“Okay, I’ll listen to you. She’ll be whatever you want her to be,” Meredith said with a nod, “Also, you shouldn’t take
Josiah’s words to heart. No matter what, I won’t ask for a divorce.”

“Why have you become like Nia, always asking me if I’m serious or not,” Meredith said with a smile,” Although it’s a
little long-winded, I still like to repeat myself once more. I’m serious. No matter what you become in the future, I
won’t ask for a divorce.” Meredith also believed that Josiah would pardon Charlie on Old Madam Shelby and Mrs.
Larson’s behalf.
“Meredith, I believe you,” Charlie replied to her with a smile.
From his forced smiler, Meredith could see that he did not believe her, but he also had no intention of letting Yena
go.
Perhaps, in his eyes, a woman who instigates was already vile enough and deserved to be dead.
After resting in the hospital for two days, Meredith was discharged.
Charlie had to head to the other departments for his physiotherapy, so he could not pick her up. He got Wilma to
send her a bouquet of her favorite flower, roses.
“The flowers are gorgeous.” Meredith took a sniff at the bouquet. Wilma chuckled and said, “Mister Charlie picked
each flower by hand, of course, it’s gorgeous.”
