"I know. Go on." Meredith ruffled Nia's hair."Love you, Mommy." Nia affectionately pecked on Meredith's cheeks before happily entering her school.Meredith smiled in relief before getting up and leaving the kindergarten.When she brought breakfast to the hospital, Josiah had already been transferred to another ward. At that moment, he was leaning against the headboard while dealing with an emergency work issue on his tablet."You're still working in times like this. It seems you have recovered quite well," Meredith said while placing the breakfast by the side of the bed.Josiah immediately furrowed his brows. He turned to her and said, "It was alright until you mentioned it. Once you've mentioned it, my injuries start to hurt again."Meredith looked at his bandaged head and asked, "What did the doctor say? You should be out of danger already, right?""The doctor said that there is a blood clot inside. If I can't absorb it on my own, I'll have to take it out with surgery."A cr
"Didn't you ask me to leave?""You—""Mister Josiah, you call all the shots here right now. What else do you want?""Since I call all the shots, I want you to stay back and feed me breakfast." Josiah looked at her. "Quickly, I'm hungry."Meredith deliberately said, "But I don't want to take time off when I just started working.""If you're going to say anything further, I'll acquire your hospital and make you work for me."Meredith was speechless."Meredith, I'm a heavily injured patient that barely escaped death. How could you let other people serve me?""At least, I think other people would be much more meticulous than me.""If you're going to continue this way, I'm going to complain to Her Highness."Meredith was at a loss for words. No matter what excuses she came up with previously, it was no match for him mentioning Her Highness.She nodded. "Okay, Mister Josiah, please have mercy. I'll feed you breakfast immediately."She poured the aromatic oatmeal porridge out of t
Josiah was angry, yet he could not do anything about it.Meredith worked at the hospital the entire morning. When she was having lunch with her colleagues in the afternoon, she received a call from the doctor.She was initially a little nervous that something might have happened to Josiah. When she heard the doctor say that Josiah was not willing to have lunch, she relaxed."Relax, he won't starve by skipping a meal," Meredith said coldly.The doctor on the other end of the line turned to look at Josiah before saying, "Ma'am, not only is he not eating his lunch, but he is also not taking his medicine. Sigh, how could he get better after such a serious injury if he doesn’t take his medicine?""Why is he not taking his medicine?" Meredith asked."Mister Josiah said that he was not feeling well, he can't swallow," The doctor said helplessly, "Perhaps the wound is starting to hurt. I've already given him a shot of painkillers. I hope that he can eat.""Okay, give him a shot of paink
Josiah had just laid in bed when a gentle knock came from the door, followed by Meredith entering."Ma'am, you're here." When the doctor faced her, he had already put on a worried expression.Meredith nodded and looked at Josiah sleeping. She immediately lightened her footsteps and softened her tone, "How is he?""He just had a shot of painkillers and fell asleep.""Has he taken his food and medicine?""Not yet. Once he wakes up, please persuade him to do so." The doctor put up an amazing act."Okay.""If there is nothing else, I'll get back to work.""Okay."Before leaving, the doctor reminded her, "If Mister Josiah says that he is in pain, you should comfort him. I'm afraid that he gets too worked up and his old injuries would flare up again.""I understand."The doctor left the ward.Meredith walked over to the bed and looked at Josiah, who was pretending to be asleep.Although his head was wrapped with an ugly bandage, and his face was a little swollen because of the i
"How are you going to feed me?" Josiah asked.Meredith smiled. "If you want me to feed you with my mouth, I'll advise you to give up this thought right now.""How cold." Josiah was a little disappointed.Meredith came out from his arms. She handed him the medicine and cup, then ordered him, "Eat up, or else, I'll be even colder."Josiah immediately took the medicine obediently.Meredith then looked at the few thermoses by the table. They were all filled with delicious and nutritious food.As expected, the great Mister Josiah was not lacking anyone to care for him in the hospital!"What do you want to eat?" Meredith asked.Josiah casually replied, "Anything. After all, you didn't make it. Whatever I eat will be tasteless."Meredith was speechless. Was he trying to blame her?She took some porridge out of the bowl. "You're still badly hurt. Let's give you some porridge which is easier to swallow."Although she did not think of him that weak, seeing how his head was injured, sh
"I'm serious." "Josiah, what do you mean by this?" She curtly turned around and looked at him."Nothing." "But it's not that you don't know that I would rather you treat me coldly and ignore me like before, or even despise me. That way, at least I still have some freedom."Josiah said calmly, "You're right. I have nothing on you anymore, so I can't do to you what I did in the past."Were all men that cheap?Josiah hesitated for a while before letting go of her hand. "Forget about it. Go to work."Meredith never thought that he would change his mind so quickly. She started getting suspicious on the contrary, "Are you serious?""Yes," Josiah said, "I will respect your interests and hobbies.""But that was not what you said just now, Mister Josiah." Meredith was worried that he was up to something again."Edith, I don't want you to go to work not because I think that your work is not good enough or that I want to control your freedom, but I just can't stand the thought of you
"It's okay, Daddy's injury has been cured by Nia." Josiah smiled and pulled her body back into his arms and asked, "When Daddy isn't at home, do you listen to Mommy?"Nia nodded, then shook her head again."Huh? What does shaking your head mean?""Nia cried this morning." "Why?""Nia misses Daddy, I thought Daddy didn't want me anymore."Josiah saw the scene of her crying through her mobile phone and looking at her aggrieved expression at this time, he could not help but feel moved.Raising his hand and rubbing the top of her hair, he smiled. "Silly girl, you are so cute, how could Daddy not want you?"Since acknowledging Nia as his daughter, Mister Josiah's smiles have increased, and he also showed that he was a bit of a 'daughter slave', which meant that he spoiled Nia a little bit too much.Not only did Meredith find out about this, but he also realized it himself."Daddy, look, Nia brought you desserts." Nia took the dessert bag from the table and took out a piece of de
"Daddy, did you ask the kitchen to make chicken legs for Nia?" The little foodie asked, drooling.Josiah nodded. "Of course, Nia came to the hospital to see Daddy and bought dessert for Daddy. Of course, Daddy also prepared something for Nia.""Thank you, Daddy." "You are welcome."Father and daughter clapped their palms tacitly.Although the chicken legs made by the chef are not as delicious as the ones made by Mommy, Nia still ate them with relish.After eating, Meredith packed up the tableware, while Josiah sat on the hospital bed and watched an animation video with Nia.Not long after, Lily came to take Nia home.Meredith was puzzled. She looked at Lily and asked, "Lily, are you here to bring Nia back? I can take her."Lily did not dare to say that Josiah asked her to come. She said with a laugh, "Ma'am, I will take care of Nia. You can stay here and take care of Mister Josiah.""Lily, don't worry, there are so many people taking care of Mister Josiah, but Nia has never
