novelbinAt the mention of Grandma only did Meredith remember that she went upstairs to
change her clothes. She calmly nodded. “Of course.”
“Then, let‘s change and head out.”
“Hmm.” Meredith made her white dress dirty. She got up and was about to head to
the changing room to change her clothes.
Josiah pulled her back. “Be careful of the shards on the floor. I‘ll carry you over.”
Lifting her, he headed to the changing room.
He picked a new body–hugging white dress and passed it to her. “How about this?”
Meredith looked at it and asked, “Joe, do you think it looks nice?”
“I think you look nice in whatever you wear, Edith.”
“Then, let‘s wear this one.” Meredith nodded happily.
He helped her dress up. Josiah was about to leave with her when Meredith said once more,” Wait a
minute, where is my butterfly mask?”
“Edith, you don‘t need to dress up so nicely to see Grandma,” Josiah said with a
smile.
“But I‘m afraid I‘ll frighten her.”“No, you won‘t. It‘s not the first time she is seeing you. Also, you might not know it,
but Grandma is the only other person that treats you the best, besides your mother.”
Meredith remained in the same spot in a daze. After a while, only did she mutter, “My mother
Realizing he had misspoken, Josiah immediately changed the subject. “Meredith, we should leave.”
Meredith tugged on his sleeves and asked, “Joe, where is my mother? Why have I
not seen her until now?” “Because…” Josiah paused for a while before saying apologetically, “because
your mother has passed away.” “Passed away…” Meredith inhaled disappointedly. She said, “So I don‘t
have any family members anymore? “Of course, you do. I‘m your family. Also, Grandma, and also…”
He paused for a while. He did not dare to say Nia‘s name out loud.
Meredith was silent for a while before nodding.
Josiah brought Meredith to his grandmother‘s ward. Before coming, Josiah already called her to tell her
about Meredith‘s situation. He warned her not to mention anything about Nia.
Naturally, she understood Josiah‘s intention. Holding Meredith‘s hands, Josiah‘s grandmother said,
relieved yet heartbroken, “Edith, you‘re alright. You‘re alright…”
Meredith looked at the white–haired, benevolent old lady, she took a liking to her. “Grandma, why are
you crying?” She asked concernedly, “Are you feeling unwell? Should I help you have a look?” “No, I‘m
fine.” Josiah‘s grandmother sniffled and forced a smile. “Edith, you‘re so kind. It‘s a pity…” “Cough…”
Josiah interrupted his grandmother. His grandmother glared at
him. “Leave! I don‘t want to see you!” Josiah‘s grandmother was still grieving the loss of Nia. Every time
she saw Josiah, she wanted to beat him.Josiah knew that his grandmother was still angry at him, he said helplessly, “Grandma, I only want to
remind you, don‘t forget about what I told you.”
“Do you think I‘m as stupid as you, not knowing wrong from right?” Josiah was speechless. He silently
left the room.
