Josiah looked at her. His expressions finally turned serious. “To get you back.”
“You…” Meredith thought that she has misheard.
To get her back? What did that have to do with Nia?
She soon realized that Josiah knew about her feelings for Nia. He also knew that Nia was the only person she could never let go of. If he were to get custody of Nia, Meredith would obediently return to him, just like two years ago.
That jerk. He had planned it all along.
“Josiah, you would even not consider Nia’s feelings just to get me back?” Meredith glared at him. “Nia had grown up with me. Do you think she won’t miss her Mommy?”
“Children are easy to coax. You just need a little while,” Josiah said nonchalantly, “look at how when you two just returned. She was not close to me at all, but now isn’t she close to me?”
“Then, have you ever thought what would happen if she were without her Mommy? Do you think she could accept it? Do you think she’ll be happy?”
Josiah looked at her and retorted, “Meredith, look at yourself currently. Is there any difference for Nia?”
Meredith did not understand what he meant.
Josiah continued, “With your current relationship with Charlie, do you think that it would be suitable for Nia to stay with you two? Let’s not mention Nia, even me seeing you being beaten by Charlie all the time, yet you still have to coax Charlie, I already feel bad about it. Do you think Nia would feel any better seeing you this way?”
Meredith was speechless.
“The atmosphere of the family is so important for a child’s growth. I’m sure I don’t need to explain this to you, right?” Josiah walked over to the bar and poured another cup of juice for her. “I’ve already said it. Drink some juice to calm down. Once you have already calmed down, you can think properly.”
