Chapter 1138
Josiah was stunned. He did not expect that from Meredith.
“Edith, you are not blaming me?”
“No.”
“But are you going to distance yourself from me and hate me because of Ivy and Cooper?” Josiah asked.
This time, Meredith did not answer. Josiah started to get tense again because of Meredith’s silence when he was first relieved knowing Meredith would not blame him.
“Edith, why are you always like this? I know you care a lot about it but you always insisted you don’t care,” Josiah said.
” I think you have a misunderstanding. How could I not care that my husband had an illegitimate child with another woman? I do care but I don’t blame either of you.”
It was a contradicting statement and also a terrifying one. what she meant was she did not blame him but neither would she return back to him anymore.
Josiah inhaled deeply to suppress the anxiousness in his heart. He said slowly, “Edith. I did grow up together with Ivy. But I never had that kind of feelings for her. In fact, in my mind, she was never a cunning person. She was talented and independent since she was a kid. And she had never portrayed that kind of feelings to me. On the contrary, she treated Liam even better than how she treated me. Every time she had something good, she would first think of him instead of me.”
Meredith said, “Haven’t you heard people say? The easier way to win your crush’s heart is to get close to the crush’s best buddy. I also used the same tactics and got close to Liam because of you too. It
Josiah looked at Meredith’s calm face and smiled bitterly, “But I did not appreciate it back then. Or else, nothing would happen between Ivy and me.”
Then Meredith remembered the boy. she asked sadly, “His age is about the same as Nia. When was he born?”
