Chapter 1280
"No way. I'm not free." The phone on Meredith's desk rang, and she said immediately, "Anyway, I have to take a
call. Goodbye."
"Hey..."
Before Josiah could finish speaking, Meredith had already hung up the call.
In the mansion.
Mrs. Shelby's call to Josiah finally got through, and she straightened her posture and said in a serious tone, "Josiah,
why are you not answering my calls?"
Josiah did not take her annoyance to heart and just replied indifferently, "Mother, you only called me to say the
same nonsense. I'm tired of listening and explaining."

"Mother, it's the sixth tomorrow. Do you plan to kidnap me and bring me to the city hall or knock me out and drag
me there?"
Mrs. Shelby gritted her teeth. "Don't worry. I can make you go on your own."
"Really? How do you plan to do that?"
"You'll naturally find out when the time comes," Mrs. Shelby snorted, "Josiah, you forced me to do this."
Josiah heard her cold tone and felt a little uneasy. After all, Mrs. Shelby always meant what she said. He thought
about it and called Meredith again.
Meredith was about to get off work when she answered the call, " Mister Josiah, I told you I'm not having supper
with you. I'm controlling my food intake."
"Edith, what time do you get off work? I'll pick you up."
"It's fine. I can drive home by myself."
"It's not safe for you to drive home by yourself. It's better for me to pick you up."
"I'm already in the car park. You should hurry home and check if Nia and Cooper are asleep," Meredith said, "see
you later."
Meredith hung up and continued walking in the direction of her car. Just as she was about to open the car door, she
suddenly saw figures flickering, and two men in black attires and caps rushed toward her.
Before Meredith figured out what was going on, they had dragged her into a van with her mouth covered.
Immediately afterward, the van drove in a hurry, rushing toward the exit.
Everything happened so fast that Meredith did not have the chance to call for help. It was not until they left the car
park that the two men released her mouth and hands.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" Meredith stared at the two strangers in front of her in shock, she did not know

The man roared at her coldly, "Shut up, or I'll beat you up!"
"Who are you? where are you taking me?" Meredith asked anxiously.
The men ignored her, and the car continued to drive through the traffic.
The first thing Meredith thought of was kidnapping. After all, it was not the first time she had been forcibly
kidnapped. However, she could not figure out who would be so cruel to do this!
Was it Ivy?
She was not that kind of person.
Mrs. Shelby? Possible!
Josiah and Ivy were to get married tomorrow, and Mrs. Shelby must have kidnapped her to ensure everything went
smoothly.
Meredith calmed down slightly at the thought of Mrs. Shelby. If Mrs. Shelby were just doing this for Josiah and Ivy to
marry successfully, Meredith would not be killed. After all, murder was a crime, and she was not that stupid.
Meredith sat quietly for a moment and took her phone out of her bag when they were not looking. However, they
caught her just as she was about to call Josiah.
