Chapter 866
“No one had to tell me anything. I am not a three-year-old kid anymore, I can see and hear what’s happening.”
“How would you understand what it is like to like someone or not like someone?”
“But I know that Mommy is married to Papa Charlie and that Mommy will not get back together with you. And it will never happen.”
It was Meredith who told Nia about these things, simply because she did not want Nia to try to get them back together.
Nia had grown up a little and she could slowly understand what was happening.
“But don’t worry Daddy. Even though you and Mommy won’t be staying together, I will still love you and Mommy. And I promise to come to visit you often.”
Josiah was relieved to see Nia being this considerate, yet at the same time, he felt something heavy weighing down on his chest.
He did not expect that Nia would give up on trying to get him and Meredith back together.
Feeling slightly defeated, he asked, “Don’t you want to live together with Mommy and me? Just like how we were two years ago, as a family.”
Nia pondered on the question and shook her head. “No.”
“Why is that?”
Josiah wondered if it was because Nia had forgotten about the happy times they had together as a family after she lost her memories.
“Because Mommy said that she likes Papa Charlie and that is why she got married to him. Mommy also said that since she’s married to him, she has to be loyal to her marriage and her family. She shouldn’t waver.”
Josiah kept quiet.
Studying the disappointed look in his eyes, Nia asked, concerned, “Daddy, what’s going on? Did I say something wrong?”
“It’s nothing, darling,” Josiah shook his head and said, “I’m just feeling a bit sad and regretful.”
