Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 39

Did Miss Josie not guarantee her customers decent characters? **So are you drinking or not? I’ll make a complaint to your boss if you don’t!” The lady threatened.

The man tried to stop her. “Come now, she’s just a lady. She’ll die from all this alcohol.”

“So what? If there comes a day where I end up being a hostess in such a pathetic place, I’d rather kill myself than embarrass myself.” The lady’s words pierced through Meredith’s heart like sharp knives.

If it was not for Nia, she too would have rather killed herself, just like that very year. But at this stage, other than putting up with the humiliation from others, what else could she do?

Meredith wanted desperately to avoid more fury from Josiah, so she quickly plastered a smile on her face and said, “You’re right, ma’am. I should drink this as a punishment.” She then started chugging down the glasses of beer one by one. The liquid ran down her throat, burning her stomach. Her eyes turned red from the uncomfortable feeling.

In the end, she passed out from all the alcohol. It was Zya who helped Meredith get back to her dorm. Feeling bad and sorry for Meredith, Zya started sobbing, “Merelyn, it is all my fault. You wouldn’t have offended Mister Josiah if it wasn’t for me!”

Sprawled on the toilet, Meredith started throwing up violently. After she was done, Meredith said, “It’s not your fault …Josiah and I were already on bad terms since a long time ago……..I hate him!” “What exactly is your relationship with him? Why is he doing this to you?”

You’re not allowed to leave.” One of the bodyguards warned coldly. Meredith tried to fight off the bodyguards. “Who does he think he is?! I have to leave, I must leave…ahh!” Being pushed, Meredith fell back onto the ground. Zya hurriedly ran over to her. “Merelyn, are you alright?
