Chapter 844
With Charlie in the lounge, Meredith felt somewhat uneasy.
After she was done being busy for a while, she walked towards the lounge.
Finding that Charlie was no longer inside, she panicked and quickly took out her mobile phone and dialed his
number
When she heard Charlie’s voice on the phone, she felt relieved and said, “Charlie, why did you run away by
yourself? Didn’t you promise to wait for me to go home with you?”
“I felt tired all of a sudden, so I want to go home and rest.”
“Then are you home now? Is Lucas by your side?”
“I’m home, don’t worry.”
“Charlie, why do I feel a little uncomfortable listening to your tone?” Meredith asked tentatively, “Is there something
wrong with you?”

“Okay, then you rest, I will try to go back as soon as possible.”
Hanging up the phone, Meredith called Wilma again. After hearing from Wilma that Charlie had indeed returned
home, she felt relieved.
But she asked again, “Wilma, how is Charlie’s mood?”
Just now, Charlie was aggravated by Mister Garett in the banquet hall, and he hid in the lounge because he was
obviously in a bad mood, but now he had gone home alone.
How could Meredith not be worried!?
“Don’t worry, Ma’am, he doesn’t look abnormal, he’s probably just tired.”
“Wilma, please pay more attention to him, and if there is any situation, please notify me as soon as possible.”
“Okay, got it.”
Charlie heard what Wilma said even though he was in the bedroom, he involuntarily felt a weight in his hands…
The knife he held in his hand had penetrated into the flesh of his thigh bit by bit, as if only this biting pain could calm
him down.
It seemed that only this kind of piercing pain could remind him not to let his emotions get out of control and turn
himself into that annoying, sensitive, waste of a human being.
Seeing the bright red blood dripping out of the knife’s edge, he bitterly spit out a sentence in his heart.” Wilma, I’m
fine…”
As the star of the banquet, Meredith naturally had to drink.
Although she drank as little as possible, she still felt a little drunk when the banquet ended.
Goldie asked with concern, “Miss Meredith, are you okay? Would you like to drink some honey water to sober up?”
“Yes please.” she nodded.
Goldie quickly delivered the honey water to her, and she felt better after drinking it.
“The guests are all gone, I’ll take you back.” he said.
Meredith shook her head. “No, you stay and help everyone deal with the aftermath together, Lucas will come to
pick me up.”

“Mmm, yes.” She really wanted to hurry back to take care of Charlie, and after bidding farewell to everyone, she
walked towards the underground parking lot.
The elevator stopped in the basement, and as soon as Meredith stepped out, she saw Josiah leaning against the
corner with one hand in his pocket.
Before she could speak, Josiah took the lead and said, “It’s finally over?”
“What do you mean?” Meredith looked at him, who was moving leisurely. “You’ve been waiting for me on purpose?”
“Yes, if you don’t send me an invitation letter, I can only accompany you in the basement.” Josiah’s tone was full of
grievance and disappointment.
Meredith rolled her eyes. “Josiah, you seem to be a little ignorant of current affairs, right? If you don’t get sent an
invitation letter, it means you’re not welcome. Why did you come here?”
“Meredith, aren’t you too conscientious?” Josiah suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled it forward.
Meredith, who was already a little drunk, was pulled by him and slammed into his arms. When she got closer, she
realized that he had also been drinking, and it seemed that he had been drinking a lot.
“You…” She struggled anxiously for a while, but without breaking free from him, she raised her eyes and stared at
him. “Josiah, where did you drink? Are you drunk?”
