Still Loving You NonethelessChapter 1097
Chapter 1097Father and daughter were quite harmonious together.When they saw Meredith, Nia smiled and called her, “Mommy, you’re up.”Meredith nodded and asked casually, “Nia, what are you doing?”“I’m seeing Daddy making sandwiches,” Nia said to Meredith, ” Mommy, although Daddy’s sandwiches are not as pretty as yours, it still looks delicious.”“Is that so?” Meredith walked over and sat down next to Nia, looking at the rather ugly sandwich in front of Josiah.“Mommy, try it.” Nia passed one to Meredith to try.Meredith accepted and took a bite.Josiah and Nia almost asked in unison, “How is it? Does it taste good?”Meredith did not want to lie. she nodded. “It’s alright.”“See, I told you Daddy’s sandwiches taste good,” Nia said with a smile as if she was not the one picking on his sandwiches a moment ago.“Nia, have some too.” Josiah passed Nia a piece of the sandwich before pouring some milk for Meredith. “Come, have some milk.”Meredith looked at him and asked, “where did you get your clothes from?”He better not tell her that he bought it from the next-door supermarket because she could see immediately that the clothes were anything but ordinary.Josiah lowered his head and looked at his clothes. He said honestly, “I got Walter to send it over for me.”“Then, why didn’t you get Walter to just send you back? You…”“Shh…” Josiah hushed Meredith with a gesture. He swept a glance at Nia. His intention was clear. Nia was still there.Meredith also looked at Nia. she swallowed her words back.Josiah immediately changed the topic. “Nia, are Daddy’s sandwiches tasty?”“Yes,” Nia said seriously, “this is called not judging a book by its cover, right?”“Yes, more or less.”Meredith quietly finished her breakfast, she looked at his shoulder, wondering how his injury was.It was until Nia finished her breakfast and left the dining hall only then did Meredith ask, “Did you change your dressing?”Josiah shook his head. “If you don’t help me, how am I going to do it myself?”“You could go to the hospital.”“It’s too troublesome for just a small injury.” Josiah took a sip of milk. “Moreover, if people at the hospital asked me how I got hurt, how should I answer? That I was hurt by my child’s mother? How would other people see me then?”Meredith was speechless.“Those that don’t know might even think I have a tiger at home.”“Josiah, enough.”“What? Did I say anything wrong?”“You came over here in the middle of the night. Don’t you think you deserved it being hurt?”“Yes, I’m not blaming you.”Meredith finished her breakfast. She placed her cup down. “After breakfast, come and change your dressing.”Josiah was a little delighted, “okay.”Meredith tidied up the house. She was about to take clothes the day before to wash before she realized the clothes in her basket had been washed.She walked over to the balcony to see it was already washed and was drying there.Did Josiah wake up that early? Was he purposely doing that for her to see?She had to admit that he was doing it well. Meredith had nothing to do, so she could only head to Nia’s room to supervise her on her homework.
