Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 138

“What’s wrong? Did I ask for too much? If so…’ “No, no, it’s too little!” The surprised look on his face faded away slowly. “I thought you were going to ask for at least ten million dollars, but a million dollars? I can give it to you and you don’t even need to pay me back.”

“Really? Are you sure about this?”

“Of course.” Leaning toward her, Liam added, “But when you and Josiah get back together, please have him pay me back with interest.”

The smile on Meredith’s face froze.

There was absolutely no way that she and Josiah would ever get back together. “Mister Liam, it is impossible that Josiah and I will get back together but i’ll do whatever it takes to make sure that I pay you back.” “There, there. Nothing is impossible.” Flashing him a smile, he added, “I have faith in you two.”

Of course, Liam knew how sick in the head Josiah was. If Josiah really hated someone, he would have gotten rid of the person right away. He would not have kept Meredith by his side and tormented her every single day and in the meantime, tormented himself too. “But don’t worry. If the both of you do not get back together, you don’t have to return the money to me.” “Thank you for your offer but I will still find a way to pay you back,” Meredith went on,” you’re a good person, Mister Liam.” “So? Are you regretting the fact that you didn’t choose to marry me but to Josiah…that sicko, instead?” “You don’t know how much I do,” sighed Meredith. But she quickly added, “Please don’t be mistaken. I meant that I regretted marrying him but as for you, we weren’t really close back then so I don’t think there’s anything to be regretful about.”

“I get it.” Liam nodded. Liam could see that even though Meredith had ended up in this pathetic situation, she was still charismatic and had an attractive character and that was why Josiah was not willing to let her go. Meredith finally got to see her mother after a long time. She burst into tears at the sight of how thin and gaunt her mother looked.

Seeing Meredith in tears, Alayna tried to comfort her, “Edith, it’s okay. I’m doing fine here, really.” those people in there bully you, hit you, or even torture you?” “No, not at all. Don’t worry, no one is hitting or torturing me,” Alayna assured her again. But no matter how much Alayna denied it, the bruises on her face gave her away and this made Meredith even more heartbroken.

“Edith dear, stop crying. I can take good care of myself,” with tears welling up in her eyes, Alayna continued, “I will take good care of myself so that I can be a healthy donor for Nia. I’ll be fine.”

“Mom! How could you possibly worry about Nia when you’re in this situation yourself?”. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Nia is everything to both of us, of course, I would worry about her.” Nia then asked worriedly, “Speaking of which, how is Nia doing? How did you manage to take care of her all alone?”

Wiping away tears on her face, Meredith replied, “Don’t worry, mom. I’ve hired a caretaker for Nia.”

“Yeah? Is she reliable? The caretaker? Is she taking good care of Nia?

“She is. She’s one of Zya’s relatives.”

“Okay, that’s good then.”

“Oh yeah, Mom. I’ve managed to borrow a sum of money for the surgery fees for Nia.”

“Really?” Alayna’s pale face was replaced by a look of relief but it quickly dampened. “But who lent you the amount of money? Which friend of yours is able to lend you that huge amount?” As her mother, of

course Alayna knew best of Meredith’s situation.
