With a straight face, Meredith answered, “Sorry to disappoint.”

“Why would I be disappointed?” Ysabelle laughed and added, “The child is not even Josiah’s. Did you really think that Josiah would care about that child of yours?”

The look on Meredith’s face changed and she snapped, “Ysabelle Layne, don’t you dare vilify me and my child!”

There was no way the child did not belong to Josiah as Josiah was the only man in her life.

Even the night when she drugged, nothing happened between Yoel and her.

“Well, the video of you cheating on Josiah is already spread across town. I’m sure the video speaks for itself, so why do I need to accuse you?” Leaning toward Meredith’s ear, Ysabelle sneered, “If I say that the child isn’t Josiah’s, then the child isn’t. You’ll soon see what I’m talking about!”

Ysabelle then turned around and left the room.
