Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 29

Glaring at Josiah, her tone changed as she asked, “Mister Josiah, what do I need to do for you to not call the cops?” “Are you saying that you’re willing to do anything? Just like last night?”

Last night…

Recalling how she was humiliated last night, Meredith’s eyes welled up with tears. But she had no options left. Nodding her head, she replied, “Yes.” “Alright then, follow me.”

Josiah headed toward the VIP suite room that was at the end of the hallway.

Meredith hesitated before following behind Josiah.

As soon as he entered the suite, Josiah sat down on the sofa and said to her, “Pour me a glass of whiskey.”

Meredith then walked toward the bar, placed ice cubes in a glass, and poured whiskey into the glass.

Meredith still remembered the temperature and taste that Josiah preferred his whiskey. She even remembered the number of ice cubes that he preferred.

Taking the glass from her, Josiah took a sip and glanced at her. “The whiskey still tastes the same. But who knows if Mrs. Shelby still tastes the same.”

Meredith was rendered speechless.

Three years ago, Josiah had despised her to his core. Now that three years had passed, it would not be likely that he would still be interested in her ruined body.

“What are you waiting for? You can start your performance now.” Pretending as if he did not notice the pain in her eyes, Josiah took another sip from the glass.

Taking a deep breath, Meredith looked at him and asked, “Mister Josiah, will you really let me go if I take off my clothes?”

 Although it was the same kind of derogatory act, Meredith would rather do it with Josiah instead of the creep, Mister Leon. After all, he was good-looking, charismatic, and he was the only person that she had loved in the past twenty years.

And most importantly, her body was already his to start with. Slowly slipping off her white dress, she stood in front of him in her bare skin. Her body did not look the same as three years ago. 

There was a dark red scar stretching from her arms to the back of her hand, until her fingers. The light in Josiah’s eyes dimmed. But he did not say a word. Even though Josiah had seen her naked before, Meredith still found the situation embarrassing. Her face and body were flushed red and she desperately wanted to bury herself
