Chapter 1060
She had been picking up Nia several times and Nia was still excited to see Meredith every time.
“Mommy, why do you have the free time to come pick me up today?” With her hand in Meredith‘s, Nia asked.
“Because Mommy is free today.” Meredith scanned the surroundings to see no sign of Josiah‘s car. Hence she
asked,” Nia darling, is Daddy not coming to pick you up today?”
“Daddy promised that he would come to pick me up today, but why isn‘t he here?” Nia stood on his toes and tried
to take a glance at the surroundings.
She did not see her father but she saw Lily.
Realizing that Nia was looking for her father, Lily explained,” Nia, your father is not feeling well today so he sent me
here to pick you up instead.”
She then said to Meredith, “Miss Meredith, it‘s a surprise to see you here.”

“I‘m not busy with work today,” Meredith then asked, “has Josiah returned home?”
“Not yet.”
“Oh. Then will he be home for dinner?”
“I guess so. Sir will always be home to have dinner with Nia.”
“Grandma Lily, what is wrong with Daddy? Is he not feeling well?” Nia asked, concerned.
Lily was not sure what happened to Josiah and only knew that he was running a high fever. Hence, she replied,
“Your Daddy might have caught a cold and a little fever. He should be fine though.”
“Why did he get a cold?”
“Hmm, I am not too sure about this. Could it be because of the weather?”
“Nia darling, let‘s go home, shall we?” Lily took Nia‘s hand from Meredith‘s hand.
Looking at how Nia was taken away by Lily, she cleared her throat and said, “Since Josiah is unwell, let me have
dinner with Nia today.”

She wanted to check on Josiah, to see if he was really unwell.

Lily, of course, was glad.
Nia too was jumping up and down happily. “Yay! Mommy is
going to eat dinner with me.”
“Let‘s go home then, shall we?” Meredith took Nia back into her hand and said to Nia, “I‘ll take Nia with me.”
“Okay,” Lily replied.
By the time Meredith arrived at Josiah‘s house, Josiah was still not home yet.
Standing in the house that she was familiar with, Meredith felt rather uncomfortable.
She could even imagine how Josiah would react when he saw her at his place. Meredith guessed that Josiah would

even.
The more she thought about it, the more that Meredith thought that she should not have come over.
Nia put down her bag, and pulled Meredith with her to the garden, saying that she wanted to show Meredith the
rose bushes.
The rose bushes grew well and a lot of flowers had bloomed. It was a pretty sight.
Josiah had taken good care of the rose bushes while she had been gone for the last two years.
Seeing how well it was growing, Meredith thought that the garden would soon be filled with rose bushes.
“Mommy, isn‘t it pretty?” Nia chuckled and asked.
“It is.” Meredith stroked the back of Nia‘s head and went on,” I too hope that Nia would grow up beautiful and
strong like these rose bushes.”
“Don‘t worry, Mommy. I will.” Nia held her face in her hands and flashed a bright smile at Meredith.
Meredith smiled with a sense of relief.
She was glad that the rose bushes were not half–dead and lifeless like they used to be. And Nia too had grown up
well and healthy.
