Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 97

“All…the chores?” Alfred was tongue-tied. He thought he misheard.

Meredith immediately said, “Alfred, I can do it!”

“Miss Meredith, you know how big this mansion is. Can you really do it?” Alfred hinted at her with a look, reminding her that if she were to beg for forgiveness from Josiah in time, she still might have a chance of turning things around.

He did not expect Meredith to answer, “I really can do it.”

Since Josiah has forced her to stay in the mansion to take care of Yena, would that not be a good thing if she could work more and earn more? As long as there is money, she did not care how tough it was or how tired she was.

Since she had already agreed to it, Alfred could say nothing else. Once the servants heard that they had paid leave, naturally, they were all elated.

The mansion was instantly much quieter.

Josiah was eating the bowl of porridge. He had to admit that Meredith’s skills were much better compared to three years ago. The porridge she made had just the right amount of sweetness.

However, at the thought of her affair with Yoel, he instantly lost his appetite. He threw the spoon down and got up, heading to work. Josiah just left when Meredith immediately got Lily to take care of Yena. Lily has been in the mansion working for more than a decade. Her family was abroad, so she did not need the holidays. Taking care of Yena was not tiring at all. She could even just leave her alone, but Lily still said worriedly, “Ma’am, if Sir finds out that you sneaked out, he would be mad.” Meredith tugged on the only servant who treated her well and shook her head. “Lily, don’t worry. I’ll be back

soon. I won’t let him know.” “Then…come back quickly.” “Okay.” Meredith smiled lightly. “Right, by the way, Lily, Josiah and I have already divorced. Don’t call me Ma’am anymore. Just call me by my name.”

“It feels inappropriate. I’ll call you Miss Meredith then.” “That works too. Thank you, Lily.” Meredith said and quickly headed out of the door. Leaving the mansion, Meredith immediately headed to the hospital to deal with her mother’s previous medical records before heading to Nia’s ward.

Worried that Nia would not let her go if she saw her, Meredith did not dare enter. She only took sneak peeks from behind the door.

Nia looked even more emaciated than before. Her face was as depressed as an old woman’s. She was holding the teddy bear that Meredith gave her previously.

Back then, when she gave the teddy bear to Nia, she told Nia, “When I’m not here in the future, just treat the teddy bear as if it were me. The teddy bear will be with you.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She never thought that Nia would remember what she said.

“Miss Meredith, why are you not entering?” A doctor’s voice suddenly rang out from behind her

Meredith immediately turned around and gave the doctor a hushed sign.

The doctor was confused. “Why? Nia has been missing you badly.”

Meredith shook her head sadly. “Doctor Sean, please don’t tell Nia that I came by. I still have an emergency matter to deal with, I can’t stay with her, so…”

Doctor Sean swept her a gaze looking rather displeased and said, “What a strange parent you are, putting your child under the care of a stranger, even though they are nurses, yet you are running around all day long.”

“I’m sorry, I have to pay for Nia’s medical bills, which is why…” Meredith wiped the tears away in her eyes. “Thank you, Doctor Sean, but the nurse is not a stranger, it’s a friend of a friend.” Doctor Sean waved his hands impatiently. “Fine, you look after your child yourself.”

Zya was the one who helped Meredith hire the nurse. The nurse was a distant relative of Zya too, so it was considered more reliable.

Meredith called her on the phone to come out to meet her. After asking about Nia’s condition for the past two days and telling her about Nia’s illness, Meredith left the hospital reluctantly.

Meredith took her mother’s medical records, initially wanting to bail her mother out on medical parole. When the staff saw her mother’s medical records, the staff immediately refused.

“Miss Meredith, your mother does not have any serious illnesses. We cannot release her for medical treatment.”

“How is it not considered serious?” Meredith was anxious. “Look properly. She has long-term stomach problems and high blood pressure, also…” “I’m sorry, Miss Meredith. Your mother has not fulfilled the conditions for medical parole,” The other person rejected Meredith’s request firmly.

Meredith looked at the other person leaving in a daze. Then, she immediately chased after.” Can you please let me see my mother? Just for a while. I want to see her.”

“I’m sorry, before the verdict, inmates cannot meet their family members.”

“I….I just want to see her for a while. Just to see if she is doing well or not.” Meredith was so anxious she was about to cry.

“Don’t worry, your mother is doing well.” The other person said before leaving. Meredith felt extremely helpless. She looked at the medical records in her hand. Her mother’s condition was already very

serious, why could she not be released for medical treatment?

The other possibility was that it was Josiah or Ysabelle who was behind this. She picked up her call and dialed Josiah, but she realized that her number had been blocked by him.

She could only call Ysabelle instead. Ysabelle picked up quickly. She mocked and sneered,” Meredith, am I hallucinating? You’re calling me?”

“My mother’s condition is already so serious yet she can’t be bailed for medical parole. Are you behind this?”

“What? How did you know that your mother’s condition is serious?” Ysabelle pretended to be shocked.

Meredith’s heart constricted.

What did Ysabelle mean? Was her mother living terribly inside? Did her old condition flare up again?

“What happened to my mother?” – “I don’t know. I heard that she vomited blood and fainted in the toilet last night. I don’t know if she has died yet or not.”

Ysabelle added, “But with your mother’s condition, what use is there still living? Wouldn’t she be less of a burden if she died earlier?” “Ysabelle, you…” Meredith was so furious she was trembling
