Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 64

However, before he could even get close to Josiah’s car, he was held down by two bodyguards that showed up from nowhere. “Let go of me!” Zade tried to struggle from their grasp and shouted at the top of his lungs at Josiah, “Shelby! Come out and fight me one on one if you’re a man! Don’t be hiding in there like a p*ssy!” Josiah, on the other hand, did not even flinch at his threats. He did not even care to take another look at Zade and instead, glanced at Meredith and said,” Meredith Leighton, do you think that I should have this fight with him?” “No, no, please don’t!” Shaking her head frantically, Meredith cried and begged, “Please let him and Nia go, and I’ll do whatever you say!” Josiah’s dark eyes were clouded. The more that Meredith wanted to protect him, the more Josiah wanted to get rid of Zade, just like back then when she tried to protect Yoel Harper.

“I can let him go on one condition,” Josiah went on, “show him who you belong to and if he still won’t give up, you can kill him with your own hands. This way, I’ll leave you and that b* stard’s child alone.”

How was she supposed to ‘show’ Zade?

Meredith was puzzled and did not get what Josiah meant.

Seeing how she was in a daze, Josiah gestured her over with his fingers. “Come in here and show him.”

Meredith was rendered speechless. so that was what he meant!

He was such an impudent jerk “Don’t you dare, Shelby!” Zade growled. Finally taking a look at Zade, Josiah said faintly, “Meredith Leighton, you should probably tell him the story of how you threw yourself at me relentlessly just so that you can be my woman.” “Merelyn, you don’t have to care about him and his empty threats, I don’t believe that he has the guts to kill me.”

“Shut his mouth and make sure he watches us clearly!”

With an order from Josiah, the bodyguards taped Jade’s mouth.

Struggling, Zade started to resist and his shouts came out as muffled cries as he glared furiously at Josiah

Josiah did not take another look at him and looked toward Meredith. “I think Mrs. Shelby would know better if I am threatening or not.”

He was right. Meredith knew better.

Whether it was three years ago or three years after, Josiah had not changed one bit.

Recalling how Yoel was ruthlessly killed and how Josiah forced her to abort their child, tears rushed out of her eyes.

She pressed her trembling lips against his. Humiliation spread through her.

The two bodyguards turned around to have their back facing them while not loosening their grip on Zade. Seeing how Meredith was cradled on Josiah’s lap as she kissed him to prove their relationship to him, Zade was devastated. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

No man would be willing to see the woman they love being this intimate with another man.

Even though he knew for a fact that Meredith was a divorcee.

Hearing his muffled cries, Meredith felt bad and sorry for Zade but she could not afford to stop.

Because she knew that Josiah had chosen this way to humiliate her and Zade, and as long as Josiah had made up his mind about something, nothing would make him change his mind.

Meredith knew how Josiah preferred when they were performing intimate acts, so she made sure to do everything to please him.

Josiah, on the other hand, pulled her hair backward, glared into her eyes that were welled up with tears, and hissed annoyedly, “What’s wrong? Feeling wronged? Or is it that you don’t want him to know about the feelings you have for me?”

“No, it’s not that…” Fighting back the pain at the back of her head, Meredith looked at Zade and stammered, “Josiah is my husband and I’ve loved him and wanted to marry him since I was young. When I heard of the marriage arranged by our families, I was really happy and I felt like I was the happiest woman in the world.”

Staring at Zade whose eyes were bloodshot, she added, “Zade Brooks, do you know why I could never love you? Because my heart will always belong to Josiah Shelby. Aside from him, I don’t think I can love anyone else, so…please, I hope that you will leave me alone from now on.

She then continued kissing Josiah. Josiah tugged at the corners of his lips, pulling into a satisfied smile. He did not care that Meredith was putting on a show or the fact that her kisses were cold and emotionless.

After some time, Josiah finally let Meredith go. She tidied herself hurriedly and got out of the car. Looking at the hurt expression on Zade’s face, Meredith knew that Josiah had achieved his goal. She had to admit that Josiah had chosen the fastest and most ruthless way to destroy Zade’s feelings for her.

Back then when Josiah tormented her, at most, Meredith only felt devastated. Compared to when she was forced to pole-dance naked in front of strangers, the humiliation she felt right now was overbearing. Even though she felt humiliated and mortified having to prove her relationship with Josiah this way, she could only imagine how bad Zade felt. “Merelyn…” With his bloodshot eyes, Zade glared

at her with looks of disappointment on his face. “How could you stoop so low…how could you…?” “Zade, I’ve told you that I am not as good as you thought,” Wiping away the tears from her face, she continued, “but I still want to thank you for all the help you’ve given me. From today onwards, let’s go our separate ways.” “Get into the car once you’re done with your goodbyes.” In the car, Josiah had already tidied himself up. He did not go easy on Meredith just because she served him well earlier.

One of the bodyguards opened the car door. “Please, Miss Meredith.”

Meredith turned away from Zade and got into the car.

Josiah glanced at Zade from the corners of his eyes and said, “Listen to me, Mister Zade. She is not allowed to leave this city but you must leave.”

It was as if he did not hear what Josiah said, Zade stayed frozen in the same spot. In his mind, he was replaying how Meredith kissed Josiah passionately and how he felt utterly disgusted and mortified. The car engine was started. With tears in her eyes, Meredith glared at Josiah. “Josiah Shelby, I’ve done everything you asked, why are you asking him to leave?”

“In case the flame between you both rekindles.”

“You’re monstrous, Josiah Shelby!” “I’m monstrous?” Josiah shrugged and snickered, “Judging from the way you were throwing yourself at me, I don’t think it’s something you’d do to someone you feel disgusted with.” Meredith’s face flushed red instantly as she felt her face heat up. How shameless could Josiah be for him to say these words in front of the driver?
