Chapter 1091
Meredith was bewildered.
It was a familiar scent! Her eyes widened and she saw Josiah's handsome face up close.
Although she was shocked, the nervousness and fear in her slowly vanished. What replaced it was anger and
annoyance.
"Be softer. Don't wake Nia up," Josiah moved his lips closer to her ears and said to her.
Meredith came to her senses, she glared at him. "Josiah, are you nuts? How could you come over to other people’s
houses in the middle of the night!"
Since he has already entered her house, the light shone on his slightly flushed face. He was also reeking of alcohol.
Meredith realized that he was drunk.
No wonder he came over to her house in the middle of the night, prying the locks open.

people?"
His breath lingered on her face extremely flirtatiously.
Meredith could not help but think back about the image of him and Lucy in the lounge previously, she turned her
face aside and coldly said, "Josiah, although this is Mister Liam's house, it's mine for the time being. I'm paying him
rent, so please leave!"
Josiah looked at her cold face. He thought about playing hard to get and all those love games, it did not work once
on this woman.
He had been playing hard to get for so many days, yet it did not work out at all.
"I'm here to pick Nia home." He gave a forced excuse.
Actually, he was just missing Meredith and Nia after all the guests had left. He was feeling lonely.
Thus, he came to her place.
"Nia is asleep," Meredith said.
He clearly knew that Nia was asleep, yet he still wanted to come and take her home? He was very drunk!
At the thought of Lucy, she said, "Josiah, Nia is only temporarily staying at your place. It's not for the long term. One
day, when you marry and have children, I will take Nia back. I won't let her disturb you."
Josiah heard her heartless words. He looked unhappy, "whoever said that I want to marry and have children? I've
already said that other than you, I will never marry other women."
"Mister Josiah, are you so drunk that you have even forgotten the good deeds you've done with Lucy tonight?"
Meredith sneered.
"What do you mean? I invited Lucy to be tonight's guest, yet I have to be responsible and marry her?"
"Josiah, stop pretending." Meredith was starting to get impatient because she did not want to think back about the
flirtatious conversation she heard and saw.
However, seeing how Josiah looked defiant as if he was not wrong, she could not help but raise her eyebrow and

clearly."
Josiah furrowed his brows. He suddenly recalled Yoseph hinting at him that night that Meredith had mistaken him for
being with Lucy in the lounge making out. Turns out, it was true!
Josiah gazed at her. He suddenly chuckled and asked, "Miss Meredith, actually, I'm here in the middle of the night
just because I want to ask you what you think of Lucy. Do you think she is suitable to be Nia's stepmother?"
Meredith was speechless. It was as if there was something suddenly stuck in her heart.
She secretly took a deep breath to try to calm her tone down. "I do think she's quite suitable. Nia likes her a lot too,
so please quickly get married to her."
The earlier he got married, the earlier he would vanish before her sight!
Josiah looked at her forced calm expression. He pretended to be delighted. "Is that so? Nia likes her too? Did Nia
say so herself?"
"That's right. It's all expressed through her drawing." Meredith pointed at the drawing pinned up on the wall by Nia.
Josiah followed her gaze and looked over. He saw the drawing and nodded. "Hmm. That indeed looks like Nia's
drawing."
