Let her go and leave her to her own fate? It was impossible that Josiah would agree to that. It did not
matter if Nia was her daughter or not, there was no way that he would let her go. It would be the best
outcome If Nia turned out to be his daughter and he would not let her leave his house,
But if Nia was not his daughter, he would not let her escape from his grasp. He would make sure that
she faced the consequences of all of her wrongdoings.
“Sir, to be honest…” Wetting her lips, Lily mustered up her courage and said, “I think that Miss Meredith
is not the type of person you think she is. You know better on how she is full of pride, how is it possible
that she’d fall for a lowly servant and even have sex with him? Don’t you think so too?”
“We’ll know tomorrow if she’s that type of person,” Josiah replied. Lily did not understand why he would
say that but she did not say anything else. Josiah had finally agreed to run a paternity test and had
finally believed that Nia was his daughter. He finally visited Nia in her ward. Walking into her ward,
Josiah looked lovingly at Nia who was on the bed.
Nia was over the moon as she ran toward Josiah while shouting in joy, “Daddy…”
Unlike previous times, this time, Josiah welcomed Nia lovingly into his arms. Kissing her forehead,
Josiah said, “Nia darling, I’m here to see you.” With her eyes full of a smile, Nia asked, “Will Daddy
leave again?” “No, darling. I’ll stay by you and Mommy forever.” Nia replied sadly, “But I am sick. I won’t
be able to stay forever with you and Mommy.” Josiah tapped her nose lightly and said, “I won’t let
anything happen to Nia, I promise.” “Really? You’re the best, Daddy!” “But of course!” The father and
daughter were chuckling away. At the sight of this, Meredith too pulled into a wide grin.
She had been waiting for this moment for a long time. She thought that Josiah would never
acknowledge Nia as his daughter.
Fortunately, the day that she had been waiting for had finally come true.
“Miss Meredith, are you awake?” Meredith heard Lily’s worried voice.
Meredith’s eyelid trembled when the scene of Josiah and Nia being together started fading away bit by
bit.
She was terrified and started.shouting, “No! Don’t go…” “Miss Meredith, what’s wrong?” Lily tried to
wake her up, “Are you having a nightmare?” Was it only a dream?
Meredith cried as she shook her head, “Go away, leave me alone…”
She was not willing to wake up from that perfect dream of hers.
Even if it was just a dream, she wanted to stay for a bit longer.
But no matter how she tried to search for them, nothing came up.
In the end, Meredith opened her eyes slowly.
“Miss Meredith, you’re finally up.” Lily placed her hand on Meredith’s forehead and said,” Thank god
your fever had gone down. “Lily…”
Meredith murmured, “I dreamt of Joe, and he was willing to believe that Nia is his daughter. He even
hugged Nia.” Lily hurriedly grabbed a few napkins and wiped away the tears rolling down Meredith’s
cheeks. “Don’t worry, Miss Meredith. I’m sure there will come a day when Sir will finally believe you.”
“He wouldn’t…” Meredith shook her head and more tears rushed out
