Chapter 1223
Thinking of those words that Ivy said yesterday, Meredith was still quite worried about Nia’s safety.
It would all be finished if Ivy were to take it out on Nia in a fit of anger.
Mrs. Shelby coldly looked askance at her. “You and my son are all happy from sleeping together now. Do you still have the mind to be concerned about the children?”
Meredith got even more worried. “Where exactly is Nia?”
“Are you questioning me?”
Meredith was speechless. She could not offend Mrs. Shelby for the sake of Nia, so could only tug at Josiah’s clothes secretly.
Josiah comforted her by saying, “Don’t worry. Cooper and Nia are both Mother’s grandson and granddaughter. If she could lay a finger on them, then she truly would be…”
He did not finish his sentence, but Mrs. Shelby was so angry that her expression changed.
Meredith, however, reminded him, “But Ivy is not home.”
What she meant was very clear. Ivy was the most dangerous one.
Josiah seemed to agree with her thoughts as well, so he turned and said to Mrs. Shelby, “Mother, please tell me Ivy and the children’s whereabouts.”
Mrs. Shelby was very angry at her son’s tone in which he spoke, but once she thought that Ivy was locked up in the basement by her, she could only grit her teeth and said, “Didn’t you say so yourself just now? Cooper and Nia are my grandson and granddaughter, so would I let Ivy harm them?”
She was afraid that they would continue asking her questions, so she immediately added, “Lily and Quincy had taken Cooper and Nia to the flower market early in the morning.”
“Really?” Meredith was not too convinced.
Josiah, on the other hand, already took out his phone and started dialing Lily’s number.
The call was answered very quickly. It was after Josiah heard that the children were together with Lily that he felt relieved. Also, he asked, “when are all of you coming back?”
