“You did well by rejecting them,” Meredith said. She did not hope for Nia to appear so high profile in public.
Especially after seeing how Josiah was being knocked over by someone, she could not let Nia be too famous in
public
“Mommy, why is Daddy still not back yet?” Nia asked sadly while eating the sandwich on her plate
Meredith tidied her uniform and said with a light smile, “Look at you. Just because Daddy isn’t here, you can’t have
your breakfast?”
“Yes.” Nia nodded, “Without Daddy here, even the sandwich doesn’t smell good.”
“What if Daddy isn’t here anymore.”
“Then, I’ll surely be very sad.” Nia looked at Meredith and asked, “Mommy, why did you say that Daddy isn’t here?

Did something happen to him?”
“No,” Meredith immediately explained, “what I meant was like in the past, when Daddy and Mommy are not living

Looking at how Meredith was at a loss for words, Nia cried even louder. “See, I told you. Daddy doesn’t want me
anymore!”
“No. It’s not like that.” Meredith hugged Nia and comforted her, “Nia, don’t worry. Daddy will surely call you at

After all, the doctor did say that his injuries were serious. He was not out of danger yet.
She hesitated for a while before cautiously answering the call. “Hello, Meredith speaking.”
“Why are you being so polite with me?” Josiah’s voice came from the other end.
Meredith was stunned, followed by immediate joy, “You’re fine! I thought you were…” “You thought that the doctor
was using my phone to notify you to come to pick my dead body up?” Josiah teased.
Meredith nodded honestly. “Yes.”
“Mrs. Shelby, it’s a little inappropriate for you to hope for my death, right? After all, we still have a daughter to
raise.”
At the mention of Nia, Meredith said, “Oh, so you know that you still have a daughter. Nia was making a fuss
