“Is that so? Did he leave so early?”

“Yes, although he can’t come to pick you up, he still cares for you, Ma’am.” Wilma suddenly thought of something.

She slapped her head and said, “Oh my, look at my forgetful brain. I forgot my coat in the washroom again.”

Meredith chuckled, “I’ll go look for Charlie first. You can come again later.”

“Yes, Ma’am.”

Meredith stood in front of the lift with the bouquet in her hands. The lift slowly stopped. She was fiddling with her

bouquet while entering the lift. .

The next moment, she was frightened by the man inside.

Him again!

Meredith measured Josiah up. She saw that the bandage on his head had been changed into a smaller one. Looking

at his clothes, it looked like he was leaving the hospital.

She said to him, “Mister Josiah, you had been hurt so terribly, yet you’re already leaving?”

Josiah looked at the bouquet in her arms. He was a little upset.

He was the one who used to give her roses in the past, yet another man had replaced him to give her roses.

He knew that Charlie gave her the bouquet, yet he still asked flatly, “Did Charlie give you the bouquet?”

Meredith lowered her gaze to look at the bouquet in her arms. She nodded. “Yes.”

She asked once more, “Mister Josiah, you haven’t answered my question. Why don’t you stay in the hospital to

recuperate for a few more days?”

“What? Are you still concerned about my injuries?” Josiah’s cold tone initially had hints of delight and relief.

“Of course, after all, you got hurt because of Charlie,” Meredith answered as a matter of factly.

Josiah’s delight lasted for less than two seconds.

The lift had stopped at the level that Meredith was heading. She was just about to head out when Josiah pulled her

back.

“What about you? Why are you so anxious to get discharged? Have your injuries healed?” Josiah pinned her against

the wall of the lift and carefully measured her injuries up.

Meredith was anxious. She looked at the stranger that entered and said, “My injuries are not serious. Why do I need

to stay there for so long? Josiah, we’re in public. Please behave.”



Josiah never let her go. He merely passed an envelope to her. “A present for being discharged.”

“What is it?”

“You’ll know once you have a look.”

“I don’t want to,” Meredith refused without any hesitation.

No matter what gift it was, she did not want it.

Josiah forced the envelope into her arms. “You must.”

The lift had already stopped on the ground floor. Josiah let her go’ and strode away.

Meredith initially wanted to chase after him, but thinking about how domineering his actions were, she could not

help but stop.

It was not good to go back and forth with him in public. No matter what it was, she would find a time to send it back

to him another day.

Meredith kept the envelope and went up.

When she was by the rehabilitation department, Charlie was still gritting his teeth doing physiotherapy.

She stopped in her tracks outside the door, looking at him sweating and getting up with difficulty from the

equipment.

He merely got up halfway when he fell over again.

The therapist patiently encouraged him, “Mister Charlie, do it slower. You were too anxious.”

Charlie suddenly pushed the equipment away, annoyed. He yelled angrily, “You must be sent by Josiah to torture

me and make a fool of me, right? What use is a crippled man like me doing all this? No matter how I do it, I won’t

be able to stand up again.”
