FreeNovelChapter 148 When Leah heard what Meredith said, she jumped and immediately left.
In the end, Leah found her daughter’s room in the innermost guest room.
Looking at her daughter’s quiet face, she was heartbroken and angry at the same time. She was angry
at how useless her daughter was for not seizing such a good opportunity.
If she was not unconscious, she would have been Missus Shelby already.
“Yena, when are you going to come around? If you still don’t wake up, Mister Josiah is going to be
taken away by other women,” Leah said heartbrokenly. As usual, Yena could not hear her, nor did she
react in any way. “Yena, why were you so silly back then? Why did you have to interfere in that evil
woman’s matter? What does Meredith having an affair have to do with you? Couldn’t you have just

even open your eyes. It was not worth it. “Yena, I only have you left. If you keep lying there like that,
what am I going to do? Could you bear to watch me age all alone?” Josiah walked over and stood
behind Leah. “Miss Leah, don’t worry. I will take care of you even when you’re old.”
Leah turned around and looked at him. She nodded. “Sir, you have taken care of me already. I only
hope that Yena comes around and be with me. After all, she’s my only daughter.”
“I understand,” Josiah said, “Don’t worry, Yena will come around one day.”
“Do you think so?”
“Hmm. Her attending doctor has said that her chances of waking up are high.”
“That’s good to hear.” Leah held Yena’s hand and rubbed it on her face. She said heartbrokenly, “See,
her hands are cold.”
“Maybe because it’s quite cold here.” Josiah picked up the remote control to the air conditioning and
increased the temperature. Then, he bent down and tucked Yena in properly.
Leah saw how considerate he was. She should have liked Josiah even more, but she could not help
but think back about the scene in the bedroom a moment ago.
She cautiously asked, “Sir, what if Yena never comes around her entire life? Will you still keep taking
care of her?”
“Don’t worry, I will take care of her.”
“Then, will you marry her?”
Josiah was slightly stunned. He turned and looked at her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeah immediately said, “I’m sorry, Sir. I’m only too heartbroken for Yena. I’m worried about what will
happen to her in the future. I’m even more worried that when she wakes up and
realises that you treat her so well yet you can’t marry her… I don’t want her to have an emotional
breakdown.” “Yena won’t,” Josiah said, “Yena has always been kind. She is understanding too. She
would never ask for things that are not hers.”
“Sir, that’s because of your previous marriage. You marrying Meredith was for the benefit of both the
companies, which was why Yena was so understanding and held herself back.”
Leah’s eyes reddened. She sniffled her nose and said, “Only I, as her mother, knows best about her
feelings for you. Only I know how hurt she was suppressing all her feelings. She has been disguising
herself well.”
Josiah said nothing. He merely looked at Yena in silence.
Leah secretly snuck him a glance and continued, “So, Sir, right now I hope that she comes around
quickly, yet I’m afraid for her to do so too
