Still Loving You Nonetheless novel Chapter 858

Chapter 858

While he had to be bound to the wheelchair and had to cut himself to relieve the pain in him, Josiah’s legs were only scratched and cut by the glass shards.

Josiah had always been luckier than him ever since when they were young.

Charlie ran his wound under the hot water to numb the pain. After some time when he could not feel the pain anymore, he turned off the showerhead.

After struggling to put on his clothes, he heard Meredith’s concerned voice again, “Charlie, are you done? Can I come in now?”

“I’m done.” Charlie opened the door.

“Are you okay, Charlie?” Meredith helped to push him out of the shower and said, “Let me dry your hair.”

Meredith stopped his wheelchair in front of the vanity table and started blow drying his hair.

When his hair was dried, she then moved him onto the bed and adjusted the blanket over him.

“Thank you, Edith,” Charlie said while staring at her.

Meredith shook her head. “We agreed to skip all these formalities between us, right? We’re husband and wife now.”

Charlie’s gaze deepened as he said, “Edith, will you find me a burden and leave me someday?”

“Of course not. I’m not that kind of person.”

“That’s a relief to know,” Charlie held her hand and said, “Edith, please don’t ever leave me. I’ll be devastated and heartbroken if you did.”

Looking at Charlie, Meredith felt rather conflicted.

At first, Charlie would want her to leave him, to stay away from a crippled person like him. But eventually, he started to change and became anxious and insecure that Meredith might leave him.

Meredith wondered if Charlie was that insecure about losing her.

She could not help but be reminded of Josiah’s car accident.

“Am I mistaken?”

“Of course.”

“I see. I only think that way because you looked distraught the entire evening last night.”

“It was because I didn’t know if he was dead or alive, and I was worried about him because he is Nia’s father. After your grandmother said that he was out of danger, I wasn’t that worried about him anymore.”

Charlie seemed to be paranoid.

Meredith had no other choice but to be patient with him.

But he had gotten better over time. Back then, he would not listen to her explanation and be stubborn. But now, Charlie would try to listen and accept her explanation.

Meredith left for work after breakfast.

As soon as Meredith showed up at work, Goldie ran over to her and asked, “Miss Meredith, I heard that Mister Josiah was in a car accident at Springford Street, yes?” “Who did you hear it from?” Meredith glanced at her.
