"Okay, I hear you," Meredith responded.
After a pause, she then asked, "So do you think that there’s a possibility that Ivy actually likes Liam?"
Josiah tried to recall but shook his head. "From what I remember, I don't think that's the case."
"Why? Because she'd always think of you first? Didn’t I tell you before that this is just a tactic that girls would
use? When we like a guy, we want to win over their friends first."
"Ivy is not like other girls," Josiah went on, "what I mean is that I have never seen Ivy being interested in other
guys, and that includes me."
That was why Josiah was surprised to see Ivy in his room.
The next thing he knew was that Ivy had gone abroad right after the incident. That was when she left the group
of three, leaving only Josiah and Liam.
Before Meredith could say anything further, Ivy was already walking out of the room.
Meredith made room for Ivy and asked concernedly, " Are you feeling okay, Miss Ivy?"
Ivy did not look good.
But it was understandable as Ivy had lost both of her parents and she was left all alone to celebrate the
New Year.
"I'm good, thanks for asking," Ivy tucked away the sadness in her eyes and said to Josiah, "Joe, I want
to take a walk around here, would you care to join me?"Meredith looked at Josiah and knew that he would reject Ivy, so she quickly said, "I'll head back on my
own then."
Josiah was silent.
Meredith was doing it again.
She was pushing Josiah to another woman...again.
Noticing that Josiah was irked, she quickly added, "I trust you!"
Seeing how Meredith was determined, Josiah tried to tamper down on his annoyance.
It was true that Ivy was feeling low because it was her parents' death anniversary today and she might
need someone by her side. But Josiah did not want to interact too much with Ivy because he did not
want to give her hope.
It did not matter even if Meredith said that she trusted him. Josiah did not think that it was appropriate.
"Miss Ivy, let Meredith accompany you instead. There’s something that I need to do." he replied.
Meredith did not expect that Josiah would push the responsibility to her instead. She then said to Ivy, "If
you're okay, Ivy, I don't mind taking a walk with you."
"It's alright. I can go on my own," Ivy replied.
"It's really fine with me, I..."
"I’ll be meeting a friend for a meal after my walk." Ivy then reached into her bag and took out two tickets to a
musical show. Handing the tickets to Meredith, she then said, "I wanted to invite Joe to this musical show, but
since he doesn't want to go with me, you can have the tickets and go with Joe instead."Staring at the tickets in her hand, Meredith hesitated.
Meredith was puzzled that Ivy, who planned to watch a musical show with Josiah, was suddenly offering her
tickets to her instead.
"Miss Ivy, would you.Jike me to go with you Instead?"
"It's fine. The both of you can go ahead." Ivy stuffed the tickets into Meredith’s hands, and got off the car.
Before closing the door, she then said to Meredith, "Oh, and I don’t have a car, please pick me up after the
musical show ends."
"Okay, I'll get going now. See you later!"
Before Meredith could even say anything, Ivy had already left.
Watching as Ivy left, Meredith turned around, looked at Josiah, and asked, "See that? Don't you think that
there’s something weird about Miss Ivy?"
Josiah too had his gaze fixed on Ivy who was leaving. He looked like he was lost in his thoughts.
"Say, if she really wanted to take you away from me, then why didn't she try to persuade you to go with her, but
instead left on her own?"
