“Really?” Meredith exclaimed. “Yeah, why would I lie to you?” “But didn’t you just say that the phone can’t be repaired?” “It can‘t be repaired in the market but if you hand it to me, it can be repaired if we pass this to the technical team at Shelby Group.” “You know people from the technical team at Shelby Group?” “With my relationship with Josiah, what do you think?”
“If that’s the case…” Meredith pushed the phone toward him and added, “thank you so much.”
“You’re welcome.” “I’ll go set the table for you.” Meredith then walked out of the storage room. After setting the table, Meredith stood by the dining table and waited for Liam to finish his breakfast.
Seeing how Meredith was being worried, Liam chuckled softly, “Look at you being all serious. I bet your future husband won’t be able to even take a nap, huh?” Meredith urged, “Hurry up and finish your breakfast. I still have to go back to my chores.” After making sure that Liam had finished his breakfast, Meredith asked Lily to keep an eye on Yena before leaving the house using the excuse of wanting to repair Josiah’s phone. But she came straight to the hospital. Nia was in the middle of taking a shot. Even though it was painful, Nia did not cry and fought back the pain.
Her eyes were red-rimmed but at the sight of Meredith, Nia beamed. “Mommy!” Nia then tried to get down from the bed.
“Don’t move around, Nia.” Meredith rushed over and took Nia into her arms. “You shouldn’t be moving around when taking a shot. Aren’t you worried that the nurse will have to give you another shot?”
“Because I’m happy to see you here!”
“Mm, I can see that written all over your face.” Wrapping her arms tightly around Nia, Meredith added, “I am happy to see you too.”Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mommy, I miss you very, very much.”
“I miss you a lot too, Nia.”
“Then why haven’t you been visiting me?” Staring at Meredith, Nia asked, “And why isn’t grandma here anymore? Are you all busy with work?”
“Mm.” Fighting back her tears, Meredith nodded. “I’m so sorry sweetheart. I should have visited you more often.”

“Then why haven’t you been visiting me?” Staring at Meredith, Nia asked, “And why isn’t grandma here anymore? Are you all busy with work?”
“That’s alright, I forgive you.” Even though Nia had been waiting eagerly for Meredith and Alayna to visit her, Nia knew that they must have a good reason for not showing up.
Nia even blamed herself. “It’s all my fault. If I was healthier, you and grandma wouldn’t have to work so hard every day to pay for my medical bills.”
Startled, Meredith pulled Nia into her arms and said, “Nia, why would you ever think that way? It’s not your fault for not being well and it is my job to pay for your hospital bills.”
Nia asked, “Then whose fault is it?”
Who was to blame, then?
Meredith smiled bitterly.
She was to blame. She did not protect Nia when she had her. It was Josiah’s fault who tried to poison her when she was two months into carrying Nia and had even locked her up in the psychiatric ward, allowing Ysabelle to set her up over and over again.
It was all Josiah’s fault.
But Meredith did not let Nia know any of these. Patting her back softly, Meredith replied, “No one’s to be blamed. It is normal for people to get sick, if not we wouldn’t even need doctors and nurses. But that’s alright because I’m sure you’ll get better soon.”
“Really, Mommy?” “Of course, do you not trust me, sweetheart?” “I do,” Nia nodded and added, “I promise to be good when I’m in the hospital so that you can focus on working. You don’t have to worry about me at all.” “Mm, that’s my girl.” . Tears started rolling down Meredith’s cheeks uncontrollably.
