Still Loving You Nonetheless novel Chapter 26

Chapter 26

“Sorry, Nia, I must have woken you.” “Mommy…” Nia called out to Meredith difficulty, “I’ve…missed you.” “I’ve missed you too, my dear,” replied Meredith as she squeezed Nia’s hand gently, “Let’s not talk if it’s too much for you.”

Nia nodded her head softly. She stared at Meredith with her pair of big round eyes, as if she was trying to ask when she would be able to talk without any difficulties.

Meredith seemed to have understood her and said, “You’ll be discharged after two days when your condition stabilizes. Then, we can talk as much as we like, sounds good?” Nia nodded but she could not help herself and mouthed, “Daddy…”

A smile froze on Meredith’s face.

Nia was still the same. Every time when Meredith visited her, Nia would ask her the same question, ‘When would her father visit her?’

Meredith wanted to use the same excuse like always – that Nia’s father was busy with work and that he would visit her after he finished his work.

However, the words stuck in her throat when she was reminded of Josiah’s deep resentment and hatred for her.

How was she supposed to tell Nia that her father wanted desperately for her to not exist in this world?

“Mommy, will I never be able to see Daddy?” asked Nia.
