Chapter изо
Josiah also knew that, so he did not dare to say anything else anymore. He then hurriedly changed the topic. "Edith,
didn't you want to know about Ivy? Let's talk about Ivy then."
Meredith shot a glance at him. "Go on then."
"Ivy's mother and my mother are best friends. After the Landers Group fell apart back then, Mister and Mrs.
Landers happened to have passed away in a severe car accident. You should know about this. Later, my mother
pitied Ivy, so she took her in and let her stay by her side. Out of gratitude, Ivy went to medical school and had been
serving by my mother's side as a personal doctor after she graduated.
"Therefore, after my mother returned to the country, it was her who gave me the call," said Josiah.
"That's all?" Meredith was a little less than convinced.
"Otherwise, what else could there be?" Josiah raised his eyebrows at her and said with a faint smile, "Edith, you're

not jealous of her, are you?"
Meredith was speechless, she let out a few awkward dry coughs. " You're thinking too much."
"But I think that you clearly are." Josiah took one step toward her and put her in his embrace. "Edith, this is the best
gift you've given to me. I really am very happy and also very touched."
Upon saying that, he lowered his head and kissed her on her forehead.
As he was preparing to follow along her cheeks and continue kissing downward, she avoided him.
Josiah was a little disappointed, but he still respected her.
It was better to take his time.
Because it was almost nearing New Year's day, Nia was already on her winter break.
The following day, Meredith was prepared to visit Charlie's grave in the morning and take Nia shopping in the
afternoon.
She got up very early in the morning and she realized that Josiah had already prepared breakfast.
After not seeing him for half a year, he was quite skilled at making breakfast. The sandwich that he made was

already comparable to the ones served in the shops.
When he heard that she wanted to visit Charlie's grave, Josiah said that he wanted to take her there without
skipping a beat at all.
Meredith looked at him with confusion. "Isn't your mother back? Don't you need to go back to visit her?"
"I want to take you along with me to visit her." Josiah ate his breakfast while lifting his eyes to take a glance at her.
"But I'm guessing you probably won't accompany me there now."
Meredith was slightly surprised, and then she nodded her head. " It's good that you know that."
Josiah and Meredith were in a divorced relationship at that moment, so it was absolutely inappropriate for her to
accompany him to visit his mother.
"So, I want to wait until you feel that it's appropriate before I go over," Josiah said seriously.
Meredith, however, was confused.

"Josiah, that is your mother. Your mother, whom you've not met for more than ten years, has finally returned to the
country.
There's only just a short distance between you, yet you're not going to go back to visit her?"
Did he think that he would be able to legitimize their relationship within the next couple of days and then she would
accompany him to meet Mrs. Shelby?
Josiah looked at her and did not say anything for a long time.
Finally, he sighed softly, "Edith, you don't understand."
"I indeed don't quite understand it," said Meredith, "but I feel you should go back to visit her today no matter what."
"I've said it just now. I want to wait until you're willing to go together with me before I go over."
After he thought about it over and over again, there was only one kind of goal for his mother to suddenly return
from abroad, and that was to fix him and Ivy up.
Therefore, he must bring his wife and daughter home together to directly let his mother give up the idea directly
and not leave any possibilities at all.
Of course, Meredith did not understand because Josiah did not tell her last night that this was most possibly the goal
of his mother.
