Still Loving You NonethelessEN By Snow De Eira Chapter 856Chapter 856
Meredith looked distraught the entire night and Charlie started feeling uncomfortable with the fact that
Meredith looked distraught and absentminded throughout the entire evening.
Meredith understood what Charlie was implying but still, she insisted, “Charlie, let’s head home now.”
novelbinNia suddenly grabbed Meredith’s hand and said, “Mommy, Papa Charlie, can we stay here instead?”
“Why?”
“I want to spend time with my great-grandma. She looks exhausted after a long day. And I want to visit
Daddy at the hospital with my great-grandma tomorrow.”
“But who is going to look after you?”
“Mommy, I can take good care of myself.”
Seeing how Nia was eager to stay, Meredith could not bring herself to reject her. But she thought that
Josiah’s grandmother might not be in the mood to have Nia around.
“Nia, darling, your great-grandma has had a long day and I’m afraid that you might cause her
inconvenience if you stay with her. Why not…”
“Don’t worry, Mommy, I promise that I’ll be good,” Nia said, “wait here, Mommy. I’ll go ask my great
grandma.”
Before Meredith could stop her, Nia had already run toward Josiah’s grandmother’s bedroom.
Shortly after, Nia ran out of the room excitedly and said, “Mommy, great-grandma said that I can stay
here for however long that I want. So I’m staying for the night!”Meredith had no other choice but to let Nia have her way.
“Oh and Mommy, great-grandma wants to see you in her room,” Nia said.
Meredith walked into Josiah’s grandmother’s bedroom.
Charlie’s mother and Penny were coming out of her room. It seemed as if it was Josiah’s grandmother
who asked them to leave.
“Grandma.” Meredith walked toward the bed and held Josiah’s grandmother’s hands in hers. “What’s
wrong, grandma? Are you worried about Josiah?”
“Joe is after all my grandson, how can I possibly not be worried?”
“But you said that Josiah will recover, right? Could it be that…”
Meredith felt her heart hanging by a thread. She was worried that Josiah’s grandmother had lied to her
earlier.
“No, Edith. Don’t overthink it. The doctor already announced that Joe’s condition is stable now.”
“Then why did you ask for me, Grandma?”
“It’s nothing big, really. I simply felt bad for you and Charlie because we didn’t get to have dinner
together on such an important occasion.”
“Grandma, it’s really nothing, don’t worry about it.” Meredith smiled and tightened her grip around
Josiah’s grandmother’s hands and went on, “No one wanted for this to happen to Josiah. What is there
to feel bad about?”
“Mm, you’re right, Edith.”Meredith studied Josiah’s grandmother carefully as she wondered if this was all Josiah’s grandmother
wanted to talk about after asking to meet her alone.
Since Josiah’s grandmother did not say anything, Meredith thought that it would not be right for her to
ask first.
After a moment of silence, Josiah’s grandmother suddenly grabbed Meredith’s hands and asked,
“Edith, I need you to be honest with me. How is Charlie doing these days?”
Meredith was slightly taken aback.
She thought that Josiah’s grandmother should be worried about Josiah rather than Charlie. But judging
from her expression, Josiah’s grandmother looked quite concerned.
“Charlie is doing fine. There are days when he would be sensitive, suspicious, and even get irritated
easily. But he is still good toward me.”
“Charlie had always resented Josiah since he was young. I’m guessing that it’s still the same?”
Meredith was stunned again.
Josiah’s grandmother asked again, “Does Charlie still think that it was Joe who staged the accident that
took his legs?”
“Why would you ask this, Grandma?”
Meredith was puzzled yet at the same time, she felt an ominous feeling welling up in her chest.
Could it be that Josiah’s grandmother was suspecting that it was Charlie who staged the accident to
get back at Josiah? Meredith tried to recall Charlie’s recent behavior and thought that there might be a
possibility.
