Chapter 476

As he got closer toward Meredith, Josiah could now see clearly that Meredith‘s rope was stretched thinner and thinner and that she could drop any minute.

Meredith was in just as dangerous a situation as he was. Ysabelle though had already left the building while laughing away manically, Meredith who was

quivering in fear did not even dare to breathe hard. But even so, the rope tied around her broke in the end. Josiah had just crossed two–thirds of the walkway

when he heard the rope breaking apart. He immediately looked toward Meredith.

“Edith!” Josiah cried out.

“Joe” Meredith was falling over and her mind had gone blank.

She thought she would drop to the ground and her life would end just like that.

All of a sudden, she stopped falling. She opened her eyes abruptly to see Josiah grabbing onto her shirt‘s collar.

had one hand holding onto the edge of the third floor and the other hand that was grabbing her collar.

“Edith, hurry up and jump inside.” Josiah was struggling to not let his grip on the edge slip.

Before she could even make sense of what was happening, she heard a loud thud of something landing on the ground.

“Joe…” Startled, Meredith murmured his name as she crawled toward the edge and looked down.

At the sight of Josiah who was leaning against a pile of bricks without moving, Meredith was

in shock After a pause, she called out, “Joe, what‘s wrong with you see,

Meredith could not recall when and how she passed out. She only remembered that she was running around in circles on the second floor, not able to find the exit,

And after a while, her legs gave her away and she blacked out, By the time she regained consciousness, she was already in the hospital, The smell of antiseptics choked

her and she was surrounded by painstakingly white walls She called out anxiously, “Joe…” Even though

she did not recall how she passed out, she remembered clearly how Josiah had saved her and sell to the ground,

The sight of Josiah lying lifelessly on the pile of bricks was harrowing and terrifying to Meredith.

“Ma’am, you‘re awake.” Yoseph walked into the room to see Meredith staring blankly at the ceiling with tears in her eyes, and she was calling out to Josiah.

At the sight of Yoseph, Meredith grabbed his hands and asked, “Yoseph, where is Joe? How is he? He fell to the ground. Did you guys manage to find him?” Yoseph patted her ha
