Chapter 580 Meredith was slightly in a daze as she dropped onto the floor. Josiah dragged her off the floor and
pulled her into his arms. Staring into her eyes, he said, ” Meredith Leighton, I can let Quinley off the hook if you tell
me that she is the one who
poisoned me. And that you have nothing to do with this at all.”
“…” Meredith smiled and stared at him, at a loss for words.
Meredith wondered why was Josiah so egoistic? Did he really want to hear them even if there were lies?
“Is…is that it?” Meredith was a bit unsure.
“Okay then,” Meredith gulped, then looked into his eyes, and said earnestly, “it was her who poisoned you and I
have nothing to do with it at all. How could I poison you?” Josiah was finally pleased with her response but he still

steps back Seeing how Josiah was about to leave, Meredith stopped him. “Sir, didn’t you just say that you would let
Quinley go? Why are you still signing the contract with the Young Group?”
Josiah’s footsteps came to a halt. He turned around to look at her. “I can leave Allison Group untouched but I will no
longer have any collaborations with them.”
“But…”
“Meredith Leighton, don’t push it,” He cut her off and went on, “you expect me to do whatever you say just because
you lied for her sake?”
Meredith did not know what else to say.
As soon as she walked out of the Shelby Group building, Quinley walked up to her hurriedly.” So? How did it go? Did
Josiah agree to have mercy on my family?” “He agreed to leave you and the Allison Group alone.” “What about the
contract? Are they still going to proceed with the Young Group?”
“Don’t push it. These are the exact words from Josiah.” Looking at Quinley who still looked troubled, Meredith
added, “Just think about what happened to me and Maeve. Leaving Allison Group untouched is his biggest
generosity.” Quinley immediately nodded. “You’re right. This is already good enough. Thank you, Edith.”
“Don’t forget what you’ve promised me.”
“Don’t worry. I will do everything I can to find Miss Yulia.”
“I’ll be waiting for your good news.” Meredith then turned around and walked away. “Edith, let me give you a ride
home,” Quinley offered.
“It’s fine. I’ve called for a cab.”
Meredith checked the app on her phone and realized that the cab had already arrived.

She then got into the car. At the sight of Meredith, the driver in the front seat was stunned. Meredith thought that
her scarred face had shocked the driver hence she quickly adjusted her mask. “Sorry, you must be startled by my
face. But don’t worry, I’m not a witch and I won’t hurt you.”
The driver slipped out a chuckle.
Meredith turned to look sideways. “You can start driving now.”
It was then the driver started the car engine. “Miss, may I know where you are heading to?”
“Durham City’s psychiatric hospital. You can find the place on the GPS.” “The psychiatric hospital? Why are you
heading there?” The driver was curious. It was the first time Meredith encountered such a nosy driver. She was not
in the mood to engage in a conversation with him hence she replied, “I stay there.”
“You stay at a psychiatric hospital?” The driver got even more curious.
“Yes, I do,” Meredith added purposely,”so, would you like to have my number?” 1 The driver slipped out another
chuckle again. Right then, Meredith’s phone rang. She ignored the driver and answered the call.
