Chapter 1090Chapter 1090
Meredith took a shower. She was tidying the house and preparing to head to bed when she saw Nia
bending over on her desk drawing. When she walked over, she saw that it was a drawing of Lucy and
Jayden dancing that night. Jayden was holding Lucy‘s hand in one hand, with his other hand on her
waist. They were dancing under the dazzling lights.
novelbinIt was so beautifully drawn that even Meredith was surprised.
“Nia, since when were you so good at drawing?” Meredith asked, Nia quickly sketched about with a
colored pencil while saying, “I learned it recently. Daddy found me a very good teacher.” “Is that so?
But you learn music and drawing. Don‘t you find it tiring?”
“No.” Nia shook her head.
“Mommy, I like drawing.”
“Oh, that‘s good then.” Meredith felt that Nia should be doing what she liked. She liked music, chess,
calligraphy, and art, so she would learn them.
“Mommy, look at my prince and princess. Aren‘t they beautiful and happy?”
“Yes, very beautiful. They look happy too.” Meredith picked up the drawing and had a look. “Nia, do you
like Princess Lucy?”
“Yes.”
“Just because she is beautiful?”
“Hmm, also she dances well,” Nia said seriously.Meredith wanted to ask if the princess became her Mommy, would she accept it or not? However, she
held her tongue.
It was best not to discuss this with Nia and make her upset. “Have you finished with your drawing? If
you‘re done, you should sleep.” Meredith placed the drawing back on the desk.
“Hold up.” Nia straightened the drawing. She swiftly added a necklace to the princess before nodding in
satisfaction. “Hmm, this looks much better.”
“Let‘s go to bed.” Meredith brought Nia to bed. Nia had been out having fun for the entire day. She fell
asleep soon after.
Meredith was exhausted too. She shook her head to try to stay awake. She switched on her computer
and dealt with a few important emails before
preparing to sleep. Just when she shut off her computer, she heard someone trying to open the lock
outside.
She was scared half to death. She immediately looked over at the main door. It seemed that someone
was trying to enter the pin code to enter. Who would it be so late at night?
She was in a high–end neighborhood. The security and delivery services were top notch. Who would
simply press on her door‘s pin code in the middle of the night? Meredith picked up the fruit knife on the
coffee table. She approached the door while asking, “Who is it?” She did not dare to go too close.
When she heard the notification of a wrong pin code being entered, she calmed down a little.
Just when she was about to look into the peephole to see who was causing all the trouble by the door,
she heard the notification of a correct pin code being entered. She was so frightened the hair on her
back stood up. The door was pushed open and Meredith could vaguely see a dark figure.“Who are you? Get out!” Meredith instinctively pounced at the man.
She initially only wanted to use the knife in her hand to intimidate the other person. She did not expect
that the other person would have such fast reflexes and swerve to the side. The knife, on the contrary,
cut into the other person‘s shoulder.
The other person grabbed her wrist. Meredith initially thought that the person wanted to counterattack.
She was so frightened she increased her strength while yelling, “Help–”
The next moment, she was pulled into a familiar hug. Her mouth was kissed by the other person. The
knife in her hands fell to the floor with a clang.ᏁᏫᏉᏋlᏋᏰᏫᏫᏦ.ᏣᏫm
