Mister Yoseph was slightly taken aback but replied, “Not that I’m aware of, sir. The psychiatric hospital is having a dinner party tonight.”

“Did Meredith join?”

“Sir, I heard from the warden that Miss Meredith is not allowed to leave her room. Hence I think that she wouldn’t be attending the dinner party.”

“True,” Josiah scoffed.

Josiah knew that Meredith was a woman with pride. It was impossible that she would lower herself and attend a dinner with a group of patients with mental issues.

“Sir, if you would like to hear about Miss Meredith, I can call the warden right away.”

“It’s fine, leave it,” Josiah said.

Though Josiah rejected his secretary’s request, he could not help himself but dialed the warden’s phone number on his phone.

However, the warden was not picking up.

Meredith used up almost all the strength in her and finally delivered her child.

Meredith, who was still in a daze, vaguely heard Miss Linda who was saying, “Throw the child into the fire.”

Upon hearing this, Meredith, who almost lost consciousness, quickly moved her body that was in pain and pleaded weakly, “No, please don’t kill my baby…”

Reaching out her hands, Meredith struggled and finally grabbed onto Miss Rosa’s shirt. She fell off from the bed that was now stained with red blood. Meredith desperately wanted to snatch her baby from Miss Rosa’s hands.

“Please don’t kill my baby, I’m begging you…”

Staring at Meredith who was crawling on the floor, Miss Rosa flung away her hands ruthlessly and walked out of the room without even looking back.

“No – !” Seeing Miss Rosa disappearing from her view, Meredith started crying her heart out.

Meredith finally got up on her feet, but before she could even chase after Miss Rosa, she fell onto the ground again and lost consciousness.
