Chapter 688 After staying at the hospital for a while, the doctor advised Meredith to return home.
The reason was that Josiah was in the intensive care unit, she could not see him nor be with him. There was no need for her to stay at the hospital. She should just head home instead.
Meredith agreed to it.
When she returned home, Alfred immediately asked her, “How is he doing? Is it serious?”
“I don’t know about it for now. Let’s wait and see.” Meredith saw the bag on the sofa. She asked, “Has Nia returned?”
“Yes. She has to go to school tomorrow. Old Madam Shelby got Walter to send her back,” Alfred said, “Nia has been looking for her Daddy and Mommy. Lily is tending to her right now.
“I’ll go have a look.” Meredith headed upstairs.
Sure enough, Nia was not asleep yet. She kept asking where her parents had gone too. Lily did not know how to comfort her. She could only tell Nia that her parents were still outside, and they had not returned yet.
Seeing Meredith, Nia finally smiled brightly. “Mommy, you’re finally back.” “Ma’am.” Lily immediately got up from the chair. She asked, “How was it?” “We still have to wait,” Meredith said to Lily, “why don’t you go rest? I’ll be with Nia.” “Okay, then.” Lily sighed and left.
“Nia, why are you still not sleeping?” Meredith ruffled her head. “You have to go to school tomorrow. What if you can’t wake up?”
Nia looked at her seriously. “Because Daddy isn’t here. I can’t sleep.”
Meredith was speechless.
That was right. Ever since Nia got discharged from the hospital and returned home, Josiah had been accompanying her to bed. This has been their habit.
