Meredith drove to a high-end restaurant. Nia looked at the shiny revolving doors and said, "Mommy, it's only the two of us. Do we have to eat so well?""It's fine. I am earning money now." Meredith parked her car."But, it's tiring for you to earn the money.""I'm not tired. As long as I can live with you and happily bring you up, I won't feel tired."Meredith not only brought Nia to a high-end restaurant, but she also even asked for a private room.Mother and daughter have not been out alone for a long time.Previously abroad, Charlie was with them too. Ever since he was crippled, he was not willing to go out. On the other hand, she had to care for him, so she had no time to head out with Nia alone.Meredith pulled Nia, who was stunned by the stunning street views, over and gently hugged her. "Nia, I'm sorry. I seemed to have ignored you recently."Nia saw the guilt on Meredith's face and shook her head. "It's fine, Mommy. You have to take care of Papa Charlie. It's only norma
Yes, she lived with Charlie for two years, and she was happy every day, but you may not get along so well with the new mommy.Thinking that Josiah might marry another woman in the future and find a new mother for Nia, Meredith could not help but feel a strange feeling in her heart.She had never thought of such a scene, nor dared to think about it. However, this seems to be an essential thing.As the only heir of the Shelby family, Josiah could not live without a wife and children!She reassured her with a forced smile, "It doesn't matter, when he marries a new Mommy, Nia may be ten years old and can choose who to live with.""What do you mean? Can't Nia choose who to live with now?""You can do it now." In order to reassure her, Meredith had to tell her a white lie. What if she wins the lawsuit? Nia's custody will continue to belong to her."Then Nia chooses Mommy." Nia leaned over and kissed her on the forehead."Okay, thank you for Nia's trust, Mommy will never let Nia dow
It was the first time that Daddy and Mommy came to pick her up from school. Of course, she was happy.However, within a minute of being happy, there was no smile on her pretty little face.She looked at Mommy on the left and Daddy on the right, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.Whose car should she get into?Josiah was the first to speak, "Nia, Daddy invited a dessert chef to make desserts at home today. Come, come with Daddy to try it."Meredith said, "Nia, didn't we agree at noon today? Mommy will pick you up from school today. You haven't seen Papa Charlie for a long time. Papa Charlie misses you."Nia was even more embarrassed.She asked weakly, "Daddy, Mommy, do I have to choose one?"Seeing her embarrassed little face, Meredith felt distressed and could not bear it, but in order to keep Nia by her side, she had to be cruel."Nia, come home with Mommy, and Mommy can also make dessert for Nia.""But..." Nia looked at Daddy again, as if asking if Daddy would be ver
Nia is also very sensible and did not forget to buy the varieties he likes for Papa Charlie.Looking at Charlie who was sharing food with Nia intimately, Meredith was still somewhat relieved.No wonder Nia chose to live with her and Charlie."Has Charlie been reading in front of the floor-to-ceiling window all day?" she asked Wilma who was beside her."No, Mister Charlie went back to his room in the afternoon and took a nap.""How is his mood today?""It's not very good. He didn't say a word." Wilma leaned over and whispered in her ear, "You can see that Mister Charlie has been waiting for you to come back."After Meredith went out this morning, she did not go home until she picked up Nia in the afternoon, so it was no wonder Charlie waited."I see." Meredith nodded, turned, and walked toward the kitchen.She quickly started to cook dinner, and when she was done, Charlie was already doing homework with Nia."Nia, let's finish eating before you continue with your homework."S
"It doesn't matter who supports the other. When I went abroad with you, you even had to buy shampoo for me. Not to mention Nia's treatment fee, my plastic surgery fee, and more. The various investments I have made to start a new business.”"You are different, you are a girl.""Actually, there is no distinction. We are husband and wife."Meredith picked up the book on the desktop and looked at it. "Well, it's good if you can keep yourself busy. I just hope that you can find your own business so that you will be happier.""Meredith, don't worry, as long as I can be with you, I will be happy."Meredith was slightly startled. "Really?" "Yeah.""Then don't worry, we will always be together.""Really?" Charlie stared at her and his eyes gradually sank. "But I heard that Meredith went to Josiah's company today and stayed there for a long time.""..." Not again!Meredith was stunned for a moment.Yena was out of the picture, right? Who would deliberately provoke Charlie like this?
She had to remind him, "Josiah said that the accident feels very strange. He will try to find evidence to put you in prison.""Charlie, are you really not afraid of being caught?""If he insists on doing this, then feel free. I have nothing to fear.""Look, you're doing it again." Meredith sighed helplessly, "Charlie, you may not know enough about Josiah's temperament. Unless you bow your head to him and admit your mistake, he may forgive you, otherwise, he might really…""You asked me to bow my head to him and admit my mistake?" Charlie gritted his teeth."Just do it for me and Nia, can't you?" Meredith felt that this was the most effective method.Charlie glared at her as if she had made an unreasonable request."Meredith, even if you don't do it for me and Nia, you should do it for your future." Meredith added a sentence almost pleadingly.She really did not dare to think about what it would be like if Charlie was caught, not only his future would be ruined, but his life wou
Charlie quickly answered the phone.Guessing the reason for her call, he said directly, "John is a friend of my mother's. He is best at fighting divorce and custody cases. He should be able to help you.""Really? Is this John specializing in this lawsuit?""Well, I have sent his information to your email, you can find out.""Okay, that's great."Meredith is still thinking about where to find a professional lawyer. After all, she has never been in this industry in the past, and with her contacts, she cannot find anyone who can compare to Josiah."Meredith, talk to John first. If you have any difficulties later, remember to tell me, and I will support you." Charlie paused and added, "Although I am useless now, my mother still has quite the reputation in Jehovah City. As long as I speak, she will definitely come forward to help.""Charlie, you are not useless," Meredith corrected."I also hope I'm not useless." Charlie said, "Okay, you can talk to him first.""Charlie, have you g
"Did Meredith ask you to apologize?""No, I came by myself.""Tell me why." Josiah walked to the sofa and sat down. He folded his slender legs into a lazy posture.Charlie looked at him and saw his legs that were intact as before, and then looked at his legs that could not even move, and he was somewhat jealous.He clenched his hands tightly, suppressed the bad emotions in his heart, and said sincerely, "Because I don't want you to continue investigating." "Are you scared?" "Yes.""I remember you said that I can do whatever I want.""I was talking nonsense because I was too angry at the time." He finally raised his eyes to look at him. "Actually, who isn't afraid of going to jail?"Josiah did not say anything, just drank the coffee in his hand silently.On the other hand, Charlie continued to use an extremely sincere tone, "I can kneel and bow to you, Mister Josiah. I can also compensate you for your mental damage and medical expenses. As long as you can drop the investig
