Chapter 627 These days, Meredith was busy taking care of Nia, and she did not have the time to care about the hairpin. Once she did, though, he would be in trouble.
While pondering, there was a sudden knock at the door, followed by a familiar voice, “Don’t worry, mom, I’ve already arrived at my cousin’s office, and I’ll bring him your message, that’s it, bye!”
Charlie walked in while hanging up the phone. Josiah put the hairpin back in the small wooden box, looked at him, and asked lightly, “Is anything wrong?”
Charlie saw him closing the hairpin box, and noticed that the hairpins felt a bit familiar, so he reached out and took them. “What is this? Let me take a look.” Josiah quickly gripped his wrist and twisted it hard. Charlie wailed and hurriedly said, “It hurts….let me go, Josiah!” Josiah threw his wrist aside heavily and said coldly, “Don’t be here in the future. I don’t like you touching my stuff without permission.” Charlie wrought his painful wrist and growled, “What’s your problem? You’re so violent, no wonder grandma doesn’t want to mention you.” Charlie looked at that delicate little wooden box and wondered what treasure was so precious that Josiah wanted no one to see. “Spit it out if you have something to tell me, and leave if you don’t.” “My mother’s birthday is today, and she wanted me to come to the company to invite you to dinner, Mister Josiah. By the way, she said that you must bring your wife with you.” Josiah had no reason not to go to his aunt’s birthday. Meredith would not want to go, she definitely would not leave Nia in the hospital alone. “Tell your aunt I will go, but my wife is unavailable.”
“Why? Is she busy?”
“Yeah.”
“She still needs to work?”
“No, she’s taking care of our kid.”
“Alright, I’ll tell my mother.” Charlie glanced at the small wooden box on his desk, turned, and walked away.
Josiah picked up the small wooden box and reached out to Mister Yoseph.
Mister Yoseph hurried over and took the small wooden box.
