Chapter 1196

Penulis: Snow de Eira
Meredith immediately changed the subject. "Also, back then when Nia was having treatment abroad, you also didn't tell me about that. Also…"

"Edith," Josiah interrupted her, "you clearly care about the matters between Ivy and me, why do you pretend as if you don't care? Just because of Cooper's condition?"

"I don't really care that much," Meredith tried to explain herself.

"Look at you. Your face reeks of jealousy."

"Says who…"

Josiah closed the magazine in his hands. He waved at her. "Come over here."

Of course, Meredith did not go over. She even took a step back.

"Come here," Josiah insisted.

"You can just say whatever you want to say."

"Edith, have you ever thought that you actually care about me?" Josiah sized up the complicated gaze in her eyes. "And due to ego and past grievances, you're not willing to admit it."

Meredith instantly felt as if he saw through her. However, even she did not know what she was feeling and whether she cared for him or not.

    Josiah knew that every time she thought of herself, it was her time to settle old scores. He helplessly sighed and said, "Edith, can you not think about it anymore?""I'm thinking back to how I forced you to marry me back then. Ivy is the same right now. Turns out, forcing someone to marry you is such an annoying thing to do."Meredith smiled bitterly and said, "No wonder I will end up in that position.""No. You're different compared to Ivy," Josiah said."How so?""Although back then Grandma forced me to marry you, I wasn't really against it. I didn't have a girl that I liked back then. I thought no matter what, marrying a wife is just a duty in life. It did not matter who it was."As for Ivy and I…it was purely an accident. I can't even recall how I followed her into a room."Josiah's tone was extremely sincere, yet Meredith thought nothing of it. From her view, he was still being forced to do something. He also cheated.In the end, she used her most-used phrase to sum thing

    Ivy's gentle voice came from inside. "Joe, why are you still not back yet so late? Is everything alright?"Josiah held his phone while gently caressing Meredith's shoulder. "I'm together with Meredith. Miss Landers, is there anything else?"Ivy, on the other end of the line, paused for a while before saying, "I…nothing. I'm just worried about you not being back so late. It's good that you're fine. I'll hang up."Josiah hung up the call first.He lowered his head to see Meredith looking at him with a complicated gaze.He knew that she must be thinking back about her past once more.He helplessly sighed and said seriously, "Meredith, I don't like to give people hope. Especially not to a woman that I don't like. I don't think I'm wrong in doing so, if not it will be like…"He initially wanted to say that it would be like how she gave Charlie hope and ended up hurting herself.However, on another thought, this incident has been over for a year. He no longer needed to bring it up to

    "Was he making a fuss looking for his Daddy and Mommy?""Nia is with him, so he didn't make a fuss.""That's good." Meredith continued eating the sandwich. "If that's the case, let Nia stay with Cooper at your place. I won't need to move over.""Hmm, Mrs. Shelby and Miss Landers are planning this too. By then, we'll be a family of four and you'll be alone."Meredith was speechless. She could no longer swallow the sandwich in her mouth.Josiah looked up at her. "What? You don't want that?""Of course, not," Meredith said, "a child is part of a mother's flesh. Just like how Ivy would not be willing to hand over Cooper for us to raise.""So, you decide whether you want to move in or not." Josiah had prepared all the ingredients. He said, "It's done. You can start doing it."Meredith made the tri-color pesto and put it in a thermos lunchbox. Then, she drove to Josiah's mansion.Josiah did not return because he had something to do in the office.The moment she stepped into the man

    Ivy immediately changed the water in the teacup with a hot one before thoughtfully offering it to Mrs. Shelby. "Mrs. Shelby, be careful, it's hot."From beginning to end, Ivy's actions were as skilled as if she were eating or drinking.Meredith thought to herself that no wonder Mrs. Shelby liked Ivy so much. She was just about to turn around to say goodbye to Cooper and Nia when Mrs. Shelby threw the tea from her cup at her.Meredith instinctively took a step back. Although she had covered her face, her hands were burned."Ah—" She yelped in pain."Mrs. Shelby!" Ivy immediately reached out to hold Mrs. Shelby's hand. "Don't be angry, in case you hurt yourself."Mrs. Shelby placed the empty teacup in Ivy's hand. "Ivy, watch and learn. You must be determined in dealing with shameless women like her. I would like to see how she seduces Joe with a ruined face!"Meredith was speechless. She had no energy to fight with Mrs. Shelby. She turned around and went to the washroom to wash it

    After all, Ivy was a doctor. She was very skillful when she applied the medicine. In addition, the ointment was cool, not only does it not hurt at all when applied to the wound. It felt quite good."Meredith, although you are spoiled by Joe, I still have to remind you that Mrs. Shelby is domineering and cold-blooded by nature, and you won't get good results if you go against her. If you don't want to have the next time, you'd better watch your temper. Put your temper away. Mrs. Shelby will never allow confrontations with her."Ivy lowered her head and helped her with the ointment very seriously, with a particularly peaceful and beautiful expression.If she had not witnessed what she did to Cooper, Meredith would even have the illusion that this woman was a very good woman."Miss Landers, are you usually so gullible?" She mocked. "In order to marry Josiah, you endured Mrs. Shelby's perverted temperament."Ivy paused and smiled bitterly. "Yes, if you want to be with the person you l

    Ivy turned her head to look at her faintly, and said, "Miss Meredith, do you really want to know why?""Yes.""Okay, then I'll tell you." Ivy said, "Cooper has been sick since childhood, but I, the mother, can't do anything. The man I like doesn't like me. Mrs. Shelby thinks I'm useless and can't get Joe's heart…""Under this heavy pressure, I collapsed countless times and tried to commit suicide countless times, but every time I failed to do it. If I choose another way of release my stress, that is to return to my home country to pursue my own happiness."Ivy suddenly grabbed Meredith's uninjured right hand and said anxiously, "Meredith, do you think I'm pitiful? If you think I'm pitiful too, please help me, right? If I can't marry Joe, I won't be able to live..."Meredith was stunned by the emotion in her eyes.If she knew that she had this kind of mentality, she would not ask.She pulled her little hand back and said, "Didn't I already promise to give Josiah to you, and Josia

    "..."Meredith gritted her teeth and endured it."So, why did you come here today?"Josiah walked to the sofa and sat down and said, "It's not a big deal, I just can't let go of what happened last night, so I came here to see what's the matter.""What do you mean?" Meredith did not understand for a while."I want to see this 'boyfriend' who you are so protective of." Josiah did not mind how much his jealous appearance affected his image.Meredith was speechless.It turned out that he was referring to Andrew!He actually still remembered this!She explained patiently, "Josiah, please listen to me, Andrew was the one who met the client instead of me and the accident happened. I have the responsibility to protect him. Please don't always look at others in a negative light.""Besides, I'm not your plaything or your slave. I won't be your lover, and I won't choose you as my lover. If you keep pestering me, I'll disappear. I'll completely disappear for the sake of safety!"Josiah

    For the peace of the 'world', she had to put on an unhappy expression and say, "Josiah, have you watched too many house fight dramas? Do you think that your mother and Miss Landers are so heinous?""Isn't Miss Landers, who even dares to frame her own son, heinous enough?" Josiah asked in return, "Also, my mother even interferes in her own son's marriage. Isn't that heinous enough?"Meredith was speechless.Meredith knew very well about Mrs. Shelby's attitude. She has already been taught by a cup of hot tea.However, Ivy...Thinking of the scars on her wrist, she unconsciously said, "I think that Ivy has some difficulties and secrets.""Who doesn't have any difficulties and secrets? Isn't it all because of our failure to remarry again and again?" Josiah carefully held up her injured hand. "Tell me, who did this to you?""I accidentally burned myself while making coffee." Meredith made up a lie casually."Miss Meredith, don't you have more authority? Do you need to make coffee your

    Back in the bedroom on the second floor, Liam pulled Ivy into the bathroom to take a bath together.Ivy allowed him to take off her clothes and pulled her to stand under the water.Liam helped her take a bath and asked, "How is it? Is everything okay?""It's not bad." Ivy said, "I didn't expect your parents to welcome me so warmly."Liam looked at her proudly, with the water still flowing down from his head. "Of course! You should thank the guy that has good taste. How can they dislike a girl of my choosing?"Ivy smiled and said, "Okay, previously...""Don't mention the previous things, let them pass." Liam interrupted her.Ivy was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, it's all over.""Yes. From now on, there is only happiness." Liam lowered his head and whispered in her ear, and kissed her lips……Meredith and Josiah listened in shock to Liam and Ivy's story, while watching the three children chasing and making trouble outside the floor-to-ceiling window.They were all

    Ivy raised her hand and touched the top of Siena's hair. "God treated me well, and gave me back my daughter, and also gave me the child's father.""No, you're wrong." Liam smiled and said, "God treated me well and sent the child and the child's mother back to my arms.""Oh, spare me." Madam Sheldon shook her head unbearably.Madam Sheldon finally believed that Siena was her own granddaughter.She excitedly hugged Siena into her arms, and she burst into tears with joy. "Great, our Sheldon family finally has a granddaughter! Great!""Grandma, you like Siena, right?" Siena asked sweetly."Nonsense! Of course, Grandma likes Siena. Grandma has always dreamed about a little grandson or a little granddaughter." Madam Sheldon choked as she said.Liam and Ivy looked at each other and smiled.After hugging Siena excitedly for a while, Madam Sheldon released her, and looked at her again. "Now that you mentioned it, she looks a lot like Liam. Look at her nose, her ears...right? Am I righ

    "You even helped me get dressed before you left!" Liam pinched her chin. "Ivy, aren't you embarrassed saying these things?""You asked me.""...""If I didn't help you get dressed, you might be so stupid that you don't even know that you slept with someone, right?""Ivy!" Liam gritted his teeth. "You stole my seed, and you dare to laugh at me for being stupid?""Isn't it stupid?" Ivy was not afraid of him. She raised an eyebrow at him deliberately. "Liam, think about it. Were you being stupid that night?"Liam was silent.Yes, he was really stupid.He was so stupid that he was too embarrassed to admit it. He did not even have the face to mention it in front of Josiah.Looking at the woman in front of him, he wanted to laugh and be mad at the same time.He did not want to say anything. He just wanted to use actions to prove how angry he was, how excited, happy, and...Countless emotions were intertwined in his body, causing him to bow his head and kiss her lips fiercely.Ivy

    "Okay, I'm sorry." Ivy got up and walked around in front of him, sitting on his lap and hugging his neck with a smile. "Do I need to make up for you as well? Say sorry to you?""Yes, of course.""I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you for so long. I shouldn't have kept the news about Siena's from you until now, okay?""Do you think I'll let you off with just that?" Liam was not satisfied."Then what do you want?""The rest will be paid in the evening.""Okay, double compensation," Ivy responded generously.Hearing her say that, Liam was extremely satisfied.He did not mind his daughter's presence at all. He instructed her, "Siena, turn around, I'm going to kiss Mommy.""Why can't I see you kiss Mommy?" Siena was puzzled."Because your Mommy will be shy.""Oh, okay then." Siena turned around wisely."I'm not shy, it's you who is shy." Ivy held Liam's handsome face and kissed him on the lips.Liam was moved for a second, and when he tried to dee

    The adoptive parents expressed their understanding. They waved their hands and said, "It's alright. If it were me, I'd be crying happy tears too.""Anyway, thank you very much," Liam said."Mister Liam, you don't have to be so polite. Otherwise, we will be even more embarrassed," the adoptive father said.The adoptive mother held Siena, who seemed a little lost. She pulled Siena in front of Ivy and said softly, "Siena, I'm sorry, Mommy never told you that Ivy is your biological mommy."Siena looked at her in shock. "Really? Is Mommy Ivy my biological mother? Did she give birth to me?""Yes. Mommy wouldn't just pass you to a random stranger, right?" The adoptive mother smiled and said, "Siena, you will be able to spend time with your biological mommy in the future. Isn't that great?"Siena nodded, then stretched out her palm and gently stroked Ivy's face. "Mommy, why are you crying? Don't you want to be my biological mommy?""Siena!" Ivy suddenly pulled Siena into her embrace."

    Siena's adoptive parents expressed that they understood. They waved their hands and said, "It's fine. If it were me, we would cry happy tears too." "Anyway, thank you very much," Liam said."Mister Liam, don't say such a thing. If not, we will be even more embarrassed," Siena's adoptive father said.Siena's adoptive mother pulled Siena, who did not know much about what was happening, over to Ivy's side and gently said, "Siena, I'm sorry. I have never told you that Ivy is your real Mommy."Siena looked at her in shock. "Are you serious? Mommy Ivy is my real Mommy? The one that gave birth to me?""Yes, if not, how could I simply give you to any other person?" Siena's adoptive mother said with a smile, "In the future, you will be living with your real Mommy. Are you happy?"Siena nodded before reaching her hand out and touching Ivy's face. "Mommy, why are you crying? Don't you want to be my real Mommy?""Siena!"

    Siena's adoptive parents looked at each other and smiled.The kitchen was calling them to take their seats.Liam got up and said, "Come, let's eat and talk."Then, he said to Siena, "Siena, go get Daddy and Mommy to eat. They must be hungry."Siena happily brought her adoptive parents to take their seats. The dinner was in the garden. They ate and talked at the same time. The entire process was pleasant.Toward the end, Siena's adoptive mover suddenly got up and walked over to Ivy. She looked at her deeply and said after a while, "Ivy, there is a secret I have been hiding from you for a very long time.""What is it?" Ivy saw how serious she was. She could not help but feel the severity of it."Siena…" Siena's adoptive mother paused for a while before saying, "Siena is the baby that you have been looking for all these years."Ivy was stunned. Liam was stunned too.Ivy was feeling uneasy. Blood was rushing to her head. Shock, delight, surprise, excitement, all of the emotions ga

    Ivy heard what Liam said and looked out at the door.When she saw that it was Siena's adoptive parents, she was instantly stunned."They are the guests that you mentioned?""Yes." Liam stood next to her and smiled. He said, "They said they hoped that they could see Siena one more time.""Is that so? That's great." Ivy held Siena's hand and walked out.Outside the door, Siena's adoptive parents were extremely friendly. "Hello! Ivy! Haven't seen you in a while!""Hello." Ivy welcomed them. "Welcome."They looked at Siena behind Ivy. "Hello, Siena. It's been a while."Siena was so anxious she was almost in tears. She said with reddened eyes, "I don't want to go back! I don't want to!"Seeing how Siena was against them, they looked awkward. From there, one could infer how irresponsible they were of their adopted daughter previously.Ivy ruffled Siena's head and said softly in her ears, "Siena, don't be afraid. Your adoptive parents are here to send you off because you're about to

    Ivy cleared her throat. She ruffled Siena's head. "Don't listen to your Daddy. How could I be tired? Furthermore, taking care of you is the happiest and proudest thing I have ever done.""Really? Mommy, you really like me that much?""I do."Siena laughed happily."Let's go. We'll head home." Ivy held Siena's hand and they walked under the sycamore tree."Mommy, has Daddy gone back?""Not yet," Ivy said, "Daddy said he wants to give us a surprise.""Oh, that's great. I don't want Daddy to leave us.""Why? Do you like Daddy?""I do." Siena nodded. "Also, with Daddy here, you will be much happier. I like to see you being happy."Ivy saw Siena's face under the sun. She could not help but be moved. Siena was too understanding and caring.She suddenly thought of her own daughter. If she was still around, she would be Siena's age. She wondered whether she was as caring as Siena.At that thought, the smile on her face faded a little."Mommy, look! There are two birds!" Siena sudd
