Meredith was speechless by what he said.He was right, she could have stopped Quinley from entering the mansion today."Meredith, aren't you tired?" Josiah looked at her and asked.Meredith opened her mouth and asked, "What do you mean?""You obviously care, but you have to pretend you don't care.""Aren't you doing the same?"Josiah thought for a while and nodded. "Yes, I admit that I sent you that photo on purpose. After I sent the photo, I drove Quinley away, and I didn't eat the meal she sent.""What about you? Aren't you tired?" she asked back."I admit that I'm tired, so I don't want to pretend anymore." Josiah's eyes gradually deepened. "Meredith, can we stop pretending?""...""Let's go directly to get the certificate, so we don't have to pretend."Get a certificate? He wanted the certificate again."Let go of me first." Meredith pushed his palm."Don't run away from the problem.""I…"Before Meredith could speak, Josiah interrupted her. "Meredith, don't tell me
"That's right, you're crazy because of your anger." Josiah leaned over to hold her face, and said seriously, "Meredith, think about the remarriage."After speaking, without waiting for her response, he started the car and drove towards the old house.With Josiah's reminder, Meredith paid more attention to Nia's physical condition.It was found that her memory was indeed much poorer, and she also forgot many things in the past.However, other than that, Nia's body was normal.In the evening, Meredith sat at the table watching Nia playing with the block puzzle. Meredith occasionally helped Nia when Nia did not know what to do.Nia always smiled at her and said, "Thank you, Mommy.""No need to thank me." Meredith stroked her little head and said sincerely, "Nia, Mommy hopes you will be healthy and happy, and nothing will ever happen to you again."Nia nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mommy, Nia will be very healthy and happy." "Really?""Yes, as long as I can be with Daddy and M
"Okay, then I'll sit here and wait for you.""You should sit outside." Meredith pointed to the lounge chair at the end of the corridor.Charlie went obediently.Meredith returned to work. She was too busy with work, so she quickly forgot Charlie.She did not remember until the noon break when she came to the rest area.From a distance, he saw Charlie leaning on the chair with his phone and falling asleep.This guy had been waiting for her here all morning.Meredith could not bear to wake him up for a while, let alone tell him that she was about to remarry Josiah.However, in order to get Charlie to give up on her, she had to wake him up."Meredith, are you off work?" Charlie had a smile on his face, and there was no sign of impatience."I'm on my lunch break." Meredith said, "Let's go, let's have lunch."Charlie nodded and walked downstairs with her.Meredith took Charlie to a restaurant opposite the hospital. It was not high-end, but the environment was nice and quiet."M
"Charlie, have you ever heard the saying that the more you love someone, the more you hate him when we part?" "I....." "It is precisely because I love him so much that after being hurt by him, I am so desperate that I want to kill him." Meredith looked at his speechless expression, raised her hand, and patted the back of his hand. "You have never really loved a person. When you do, you will naturally understand my feelings." "Who said I never did?" Charlie held her hand to prove his point. "Edith, the time I liked you was no shorter than when you liked Josiah." Meredith didn't think much about his words, figuring it was something he said casually to comfort her. She tried to withdraw her hand, but he held it even tighter. Charlie, who had always been smiling, now had a severe expression. "Edith, I'm telling you the truth. When I first saw you ten years ago, your eyes had always been on Josiah. I knew at that time you liked a good man like Josiah, so I chose to fulfill y
She made herself clear, and Charlie had nothing to say. He stared at her, his eyes slowly turning red. After a long while, he said, "If Edith has him in her heart and wants to remarry him, I will still choose to quit as I did back then." "But I hope Edith can promise me one thing. If something happens again in the future, or if you are not happy, you have to think of me as soon as possible. Now I'm a grown-up. I have the capability to help Edith." When Meredith heard his words, she couldn't help but be moved. It would be cruel if she were even to refuse this meager offer. She nodded. "Okay, I promise you." Josiah took the two's certificates, looked at them, then put them into Meredith's hands and said, "Don't run away secretly this time, alright?" Meredith nodded. "Don't worry. I won't." Nia raised her face and asked, "Daddy and mommy, can't you take Nia with you when you get married?" "It was possible, but it's too cold today, so Nia should stay at home." Josiah sq
After his moment of rejoicing, Josiah was silent, deep in his thoughts. After a long while, Meredith said, "Don't you want to hurry up and visit her?" Josiah returned to his senses and shook his head. "don't worry." Yena had finally woken up. As her friend, Meredith should be happy for her, but she felt a sinking feeling in her heart. She felt even sadder after seeing the joy flash on Josiah's face. She bit her lip and thought for a moment, then said to Walter, "Walter, go to the hospital first." Walter asked uncertainly, "What did you say, madam? Go to the hospital?" "No." Josiah said, "Stick to the original plan." "Okay." Walter naturally listened to Josiah. "Josiah, you..." "We have to get our marriage certificate first," Josiah said. Meredith didn't know what to say for a while. It was evident that Josiah cared about Yena very much and wanted to go to the hospital immediately. Under such circumstances, even if he married her, he would regre
"Sure." Josiah looked at Meredith. "Let's go in together." "No, you go." Meredith shook her head. She felt that Yena might not want to see her. After all, she was like a rival to her. When people were at their weakest, they would only want to see the person they wanted to see the most. In this case, definitely not her. Josiah regarded her rejection as feeling guilty, so he couldn't help raising his eyebrows. "What? Don't you dare to see her?" Meredith was instantly annoyed by him. What did he mean? Did he regard her good intentions as being guilty? "Well, if you must think that way, so be it." She stared at him angrily and gritted her teeth. "Josiah, I'm glad I didn't go to the city hall with you just now." Josiah frowned. "what did you say?" "Nothing. I will wait for you outside." She turned and walked towards the lounge chair next to her. She sat on the lounge chair for a while, and when she got up to go to the bathroom, she vaguely heard a voice.
She let go of Nia, stroked her little head, and asked, "How is Nia doing at home? Did you read the new picture book Mommy bought for you last night?" "Mummy, Nia doesn't remember where the picture book is, and I can't find it." Meredith got a little better, but her mood sank again when she heard this and asked tentatively, "Isn't it in your schoolbag?" "Is it?" "Yes, Nia put it there herself last night." "Oh, then I'll look for it now." Nia turned around and ran upstairs. After a while, she ran down with the picture book and said happily, "Mummy, it's really in my schoolbag!" Meredith couldn't smile at all, looking at the cheerful smile on her face. She took Nia into her arms again and comforted her. "Don't worry, Nia will definitely get better." "Mummy, what are you talking about? Isn't Nia cured long ago?" "Oh, yes, Nia has already recovered from her illness." Meredith pulled her onto the sofa and sat down. "Come on, mommy will accompany you to read pi
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!" Ivy suddenly hugged her."Darling, I have been looking for you for s
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
