Meredith was startled by his actions and hurriedly grabbed his palm. "Charlie, what are you doing?""I always seem to be causing trouble for you. I'm so useless." Charlie grabbed her bleeding finger and said distressedly, "Meredith, you must be in pain, right? Can you leave me alone next time? ""I'm your wife, so of course, I care about you." Meredith raised her hand and rubbed his handsome face. "Okay, don't blame yourself, it's just a minor injury.""I'm going to find the medicine box." Charlie immediately rolled his wheelchair and moved toward the cabinet. "Wait a moment!"Meredith could not stop him in time. The wheelchair slammed into the sofa and Charlie fell to the ground immediately.He groaned, and he broke out in cold sweat from the pain."Ah, are you alright? Are you hurt?" Meredith hurriedly squatted down to help him, but because of his extreme uncooperativeness, she could not help him.Charlie was lying on the ground, her body trembling slightly.Meredith final
"Mommy, are you awake?""Yes. Good morning, Nia." After saying hello to Nia, Meredith said anxiously to Charlie, "Charlie, why did you get up and run out by yourself? What if you fall down?""I have to try to take care of myself." Charlie said, "It's impossible to be like a parasite all the time, asking for help from others.""You're right, but you can't be too hasty." Meredith persuaded worriedly, "It would be bad if you fall and hurt yourself again.""Can it hurt more than it does now?" Charlie smiled bitterly. "So, it doesn't matter."When Meredith heard his dejected words, she could not help feeling a little sad.He kept saying that he would try his best to get better, but it was very difficult for him to do so.However, thinking about it, she could not blame him. After all, it was difficult for anyone to accept such a huge change."Did Grandma call you just now?" Charlie asked."Yes, Grandma asked us to go back to the old house for dinner tonight, do you want to go?""No
Josiah shook his head and said, "No." "Are you sure?""Grandma, you know that I wouldn't dare lie to you, right?"Old Madam Shelby stared at him for a moment, then nodded. "That's good, then. If I ever find out that you did it, I will never forgive you."Josiah raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why does everyone suspect that I did it? Is it because Charlie kidnapped my woman?""Don't shirk your responsibilities here. It was you who abandoned Meredith, and then Meredith went abroad with Charlie.""Charlie knew that Meredith was my woman and Nia's mom. Isn't it a bit too much for him to do this? Perhaps it's because he has done such an excessive thing himself and feels guilty, so he instantly suspects me after the accident."Old Madam Shelby did not know what to say.After a long while, she said, "Charlie is right. Back then, he and Meredith were both unmarried and consensual, and neither of them did anything wrong to you. So I warn you, don't bother Meredith in the future. Espec
"Do you have the heart to see that the whole class is accompanied by their parents, but Nia is the only one standing there alone?"Meredith really could not bear it.She had no choice but to say, "Mister Josiah, Charlie and I participated in Nia's parent-child activities before, and we'll go again.""What did you say?" Josiah was speechless. "You asked Charlie to participate in Nia's parent-child activities?""Why not? Charlie is now Nia's stepfather, and he has a good relationship with Nia.""I'm Nia's father.""After you get married, you can also take Nia's new mom to participate in parent-child activities. I will not stop you."Josiah was angry and anxious for a while.Was he about to give up his woman to his rival? This was like gouging his heart out!"With Charlie like this, how can he do a show?" He said without giving up.Meredith smiled and said, "You can rest assured Mister Josiah. Charlie can act and sing. It's easy for our family of three to put together a show, so
"I...I'm not disrespecting your wishes, I just want to tell you that no matter what you become, Nia and I are the closest people to you. That's why I want you to accompany me to participate in parent-children activities.""Nia still loves her biological father. Let her biological father accompany her.""Charlie, are you serious?""Yes, you can do whatever you want." Charlie turned the wheelchair to leave.Meredith hurriedly grabbed his wheelchair. "Okay, if you don't want to go, I won't force you. Let's have a good meal first, shall we?""I don't want to eat, I have no appetite.""If you don't eat, you will starve. Look, all these dishes are all made by me personally. You like to eat those, right?""I said I don't need you to please me like this!" Charlie waved his palm angrily and moved his wheelchair away.Watching him leave, Meredith sighed helplessly.Caring for someone who was physically and psychologically traumatized was so hard.However, she will not give up. After al
The nicer she was to him, the more pressure he felt in his heart and the more uncomfortable it was.This kind of discomfort would not go away easily.Meredith hugged him and comforted him for a while before letting go of him. "Charlie, shall we eat the noodles first?"This time, Charlie did not refuse. He picked up the noodles and ate silently.After eating the noodles, he handed the bowl back to Meredith and said, "Meredith, next time you don't have to cook for me by yourself. You can just ask the chef to cook for me.""Well, I only do it when I have nothing to do.""Meredith, you're so busy with work now. How could you be free?" Charlie was not stupid.The company just got on the right track, it should be her busiest time.He used to be able to help her when his legs were good, but now, he could not help her. He knew that he was dragging her down.…Charlie was unwilling to accompany Meredith to participate in Nia's parent-child activities, so Meredith had to go alone.Nia
It was not until Nia's figure completely disappeared from the crowd that Meredith turned to look at Josiah and said, "Why are you here? Didn't I say that you didn't need to come?""You also agreed that Charlie would accompany you, but where is he?" Josiah looked around and asked.Meredith was speechless."Charlie still can't face the eyes of outsiders for a while, so he can't come." "I expected as much."Meredith looked at his calm expression, and said angrily, "It's your fault that Charlie has become what he is now."Josiah did not want to talk about Charlie's car accident.Besides, today was Nia's parent-child activity, and he did not want to get into trouble with Meredith before it even starts."Let's go in." Josiah took her little hand.Meredith instinctively flung his hand away.Josiah originally thought she did not want to be close to him, but after seeing the discomfort flashing on her face, he glanced at her hand unconsciously.Then he grabbed her hand and looked a
"My suggestion is that when it's Nia's turn, you use the toilet as an excuse to avoid it.""You look down on me so much?" Josiah raised his eyebrows."Of course.""I heard Nia say that you two planned to play the piano together, right? It should be okay to add one person, right?""You can play the piano?""Didn't you claim that you have liked me since you were 14 or 15 years old? I guess you don't know me well at all?""I thought you forgot how to play."Of course, she knew that he also learned the piano since he was a child, but after he focused on learning to manage the company, he never touched the piano again. After so many years, he must have forgotten how to play the piano."I can still play." Josiah was confident. "Just play the part of your right hand for me. It just so happens that you have an injury on your left hand."Meredith lowered her head and glanced at her fingers.This time, she was really hurt quite deeply, and her inflammation came back, which would affect
