Chapter 1262 "You...have a death wish, don't you?" Meredith suddenly held up her hand, showing her fingers to Josiah. "Do you see this?"

Josiah narrowed his eyes and finally noticed the needle held between her fingers.

"A needle?"

"Bingo. I haven't been using this for a long time, I might slip and make a mistake. Do you want to have a try?" Meredith flashed a smile at Josiah.

Glancing at the needle in her hand, he asked, curious, " What would happen then?"

"I remember you've tried it once, haven't you?"

"Yeah. And I think I passed out. But I had a good sleep."

"Well, let's hope you can sleep well this time. Who knows, if you're unlucky, you'll never be able to wake up, " Meredith smiled, "so would you like to try?"

Josiah wanted to snatch the needle away but Meredith managed to avoid him.

"Miss Meredith, why do you have such a thing on you?” Josiah asked gloomily, "Don't tell me you always keep it with you so that you could protect yourself from me." "If I've always had them with me, would I have to be bullied by you then?" Meredith asked.

Back then when Josiah forced himself onto her, she did not care about herself because all she wanted was to protect Nia. Hence, she did not need anything to protect herself.

And when Josiah stopped tormenting her after that, Meredith did not think it was necessary anymore.

She only brought the needle with her because things were hectic here in Delmas Town and she was meeting Ivy all alone.

Josiah sighed softly, held her wrist, and said, "Edith, put away the needle. I don't want you to get hurt."

"Well, aren't you going to leave?"

"Yes, I'll leave right now."
