Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 184

Josiah’s tone turned serious too. “Grandma, it was you who rushed me into getting married to Meredith, and look where that got us.” NôvelDrama.Org © content.

“Don’t you bring Meredith into this,” Josiah’s grandmother shot a glance at him and went on, “I never believed that Meredith would do those sorts of things.”

Josiah scoffed coldly, “Well, neither did I before I saw that video clip.”

Ysabelle, who desperately wanted Josiah’s grandmother’s attention, cleared her throat and put a piece of meatball on Josiah’s grandmother’s plate. “Grandma, have some of this.”

“Ah, thank you.” Josiah’s grandmother had finally paid her some attention. Smiling while studying Ysabelle, she said, “You’re Ysabelle, right? You look pretty, dear. But what a pity that you’re Meredith’s sister, if not, you’d be quite a perfect fit with our Josiah.”

Josiah’s grandmother sounded as if she was praising Ysabelle but she was actually implying that Ysabelle could forget about marrying into the Shelby family.

Inwardly, Ysabelle seethed, ‘That darn old lady.’

But Ysabelle remained with a smile on her face. “Granny, even though I am Meredith’s sister, I was brought up differently compared to her. I could never do something as heinous as she did.”

Josiah’s grandmother nodded. “Mm, you’re right.”

Right when Ysabelle was getting pleased, Josiah’s grandmother added, “But people will talk if Josiah were to marry both the Leighton sisters. Never mind then, I’ll not try to match the both of you together.”

She then said to Josiah, “Listen to me. Don’t you even think of falling for Ysabelle, do you hear me?”

Josiah was in the middle of eating. “Yes.”

Ysabelle started getting anxious.

When Ysabelle heard that Josiah’s grandmother was in town, she had planned to please Josiah’s grandmother and try to win her favor so that she could try to

match her with Josiah. But who knew…

Josiah’s grandmother seemed desperate to get a great-grandchild but why was she so picky?

So what if Meredith was the rightful heir of the Leighton family whereas she, herself, was Marvin’s illegitimate child? Meredith’s reputation was nowhere as clean as hers anyway.

Gritting her teeth, Ysabelle made up her mind to retreat for now. “Granny, don’t worry. I am good friends with both Yena and Josiah, I will never get in their way.” Ysabelle thought to herself, ‘If that precious grandson of yours doesn’t marry me, he will only get to marry a maid’s daughter.’ “That’s good to know.” Pleased, Josiah’s grandmother nodded.

After breakfast, Josiah personally drove his grandmother to the airport. Throughout the ride, Josiah’s grandmother was brimming with frustration. Josiah could only try to comfort her. “Grandpa missed you so much that he had lost his appetite and hasn’t been eating for the past two days. He’ll die of hunger if you don’t go back now.” At the mention of his husband, Josiah’s grandmother felt slightly better. “You must promise that you’ll find yourself a decent lady to marry and give birth to a child as lovely as that angel.”

Josiah’s gaze darkened at the mention of the child. “Why? Are you not going to promise me? I’m not going then.” Josiah’s grandmother leaned back into the car seat and crossed her arms in front of her.

Josiah let out a sigh helplessly, “I promise you.” “Really?”

“Yes.”

Josiah’s grandmother finally pulled into a smile. “You promised, Josiah. I will come and get you if I don’t see you with a pregnant lady in the next three months.

Josiah could only nod his head.
