Chapter 60
Meredith left the doctor’s office in destitution. When she returned to Nia’s ward, she saw Zade standing there waiting for her. Meredith quickly walked over.
“Zade, why are you here? Didn’t I say…” “Edith, I’m here to take you away from Jehovah City.” Zade interrupted her and continued anxiously, “I’ve heard it from Zya. Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, we can escape.”
“I’ve already gotten an ambulance. We’ll leave tomorrow night.”
“You’ve already found an ambulance?” Meredith was stunned. “Where did you get it?”
“From a private medical company. The fees were almost the same as the hospital’s ambulance.
When Meredith heard what Zade said, she was rather moved. Just when she was in her most helpless moment, someone lent her a hand. It was the most precious thing in the world. Zade was her savior.
“Thank you,” Meredith said with tears in her eyes, “Zade, thank you so much. But you don’t have to leave with me. I’ll be fine.”
Zade grabbed her by the shoulders and looked at her emotionally, “Edith, why are you still pushing me away even at this moment?”
“Edith, Nia is seriously ill. Aunty Alayna’s health is not great either. How are you going to take care of them in a foreign place?” Zade said emotionally, “Let me come with you. I’ll take care of you and Nia. Please, Edith?” Meredith looked at him, stunned. She was so touched she did not know what to say at that moment.
With Zade taking care of her, it would definitely be much better, it was only that… “Zade, you know that I have always treated you like a brother.” She did not love him yet asking him to leave his home with her was a little selfish of her. “It’s fine, relationships could be fostered. I’ll wait for you to slowly fall in love with me.” Zade smiled at Meredith. “Edith, let’s just make a deal right now, what do you say?” Meredith hesitated for a while. In the end, she still nodded.
He was right. Relationships could be fostered. A good guy like Zade was going to take care of her and Nia. What was there to refuse? Seeing Mereding nodding, Zade was relieved. He finally smiled. “Edith, you’re saying yes? That’s great.”
rather eagerly, “We can leave tomorrow night? Then, I’ll call my mom to not rush over right
“Edith, here’s what I think,” Zade said seriously, “although Josiah is injured and admitted to the hospital, his men will still be tracking your every move. Go to work as usual. At midnight tomorrow, we’ll leave in two directions.” “Two directions?”
“Yes, Aunty Alayna and Nia will be in the ambulance. I’ll go pick you up. Then, we’ll meet outside the city.” “Okay.” Meredith nodded. “Then, I’ll return to the club right now. I’ll get my mom to come and see Nia şoon.”
Before she left, Meredith entered to see Nia. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Nia was asleep, yet her brows were clenched tightly. She looked uncomfortable. Meredith looked at Nia’s face and saw that it was as pale as paper. No wonder the doctor did not allow Nia to discharge at
that moment. Meredith could not help but reach out to grab Nia’s hand. She gently said, “Nia, mommy will
take you away from here tomorrow. We’ll go to a brand-new place to live.”
Meredith did not know whether Nia understood her or what, but Nia furrowed her brows even tighter. “Why? Don’t you want to leave this place?” “I don’t want to,” Nia muttered in her sleep and turned around, with her back facing Meredith
