Chapter 1028 Sure enough, once she heard her Mommy saying that, Nia immediately continued drinking happily. After the children finished their iced tea, they said goodbye to each other. Meredith then held Nia’s hand as they walked back toward the mansion that they were staying in. On their way back, Nia was very excited and she said she made some new friends.
Meredith said with a smile. “Don’t you have many new friends in school as well?” “Yes, but I like making many, many good friends.” Upon saying that, Nia looked at Meredith with confusion and asked, “Mommy, Daddy said that you don’t have friends. Is that true?” Meredith was instantly speechless.
She once had many friends, which included Quinley, Maeve, and Yumi…
However, all of these friends distanced themselves from her after she suffered a misfortune, and they even became her enemies in the end.
Perhaps it was truly just like what Josiah had said. She had been too outstanding in the past, so she was unable to make friends who were sincere to her.
Nia took her mother’s silence as her acknowledgment, so she then asked, “Why don’t you go make some friends?”
Meredith was speechless. It was after she thought about it for a while that she answered, “It’s not that I don’t like making friends. It’s just that too many things had happened in the past few years, so I did not have the time to make friends.” “I see.” Nia nodded her head seriously. “Then, Mommy, you can make many, many friends in the future.” “Hmm? Why?”
“Because from now on, Daddy and I will not let you suffer any injustice anymore.
Meredith was speechless. She felt that this reason was a little far-fetched, but she still felt a little touched and she held Nia’s little hand tightly. “Thank you, Nia. It’s enough for me to just have you.” As for good friends, after she had been through Quinley and a few more of them, she no longer believed in them and needed them anymore.
“That won’t do.” Nia shook her hand seriously. “It’s not enough for you to just have me. You still need a partner that loves you and a bunch of sincere friends. Only then can you be happy.” Meredith asked, “Who taught you that?”
“Daddy.”
As expected, it was Mister Josiah again who taught Nia that. Nia immediately added, “But I feel what Daddy said made a lot of sense.”
