Chapter 1135
That sentence was like a bomb waiting to be detonated in Josiah's heart. It made him panic even more. However,
standing at the door and avoiding it was not a solution, when Meredith entered the mansion, Josiah quickly followed
closely.
In the house, Mrs. Shelby was sitting on the sofa together with Icy and a little boy. The boy was almost the same
age as Nia. He was lowering his head and said nothing. They could not see the boy's actual face yet.
When Meredith saw the boy, she was shocked. It was the same boy she saw on the plane! she could not help and
walk up to him. Then she squatted down to look at him, "It's you. I saw you on the plane yesterday."
Ivy pulled the boy into her arms and talked to Meredith, "Miss Meredith, his name is Cooper. My son and Josiah's

At that moment, Meredith's heart ached. Her breathing became heavy as she had problems with her breathing. No
wonder, she thought this boy looked like Nia when she first saw him. He was Josiah's son, Nia's half-brother!
She looked at him with a complicated feeling and asked, "So your name is Cooper, when I ask you on the plane, you
did not tell me."
For some reason, she did not hate him even when she knew this little boy was Josiah's illegitimate child, a child from
her rival in love. Her heart was trying to make her embrace the little boy into her arms and cuddle him.
The little boy heard her voice. He lifted his head to gaze into Meredith's eyes. When the boy lifted his head, Josiah
finally could see the little boy's face while standing beside the door. The little boy was so alike to Nia that there was
no need for him to do a paternity test!
He did not suspect the boy was not his though. He yelled at his mother and Ivy with storming fury, "what's going
on? How does this child come about?"
"Josiah, you'll scare Cooper," Ivy said anxiously.
Mrs. Shelby finally talked with an indifferent tone, "Josiah. Is this the first thing you should say to me?"
Josiah did not care if it had been several years since he last saw his mother or if that was the first thing he said to
her. He needed to know why this child existed! He did not need a child like him now!
Meredith finally looked over to see Mrs. Shelby when she heard her talking. In the past, her parents had brought her
to greet Josiah's family during a banquet or maybe saw her from the television. But this was the first time Meredith
saw the actual person face-to- face. Thus, she took a good look at Mrs. Shelby.
Like every lady from a wealthy family she saw in the drama, Mrs. Shelby wore expensive clothing she had taken
care of her skin very well and had exquisite facial features. Her body was diffusing with nobility and gracious aura.
Josiah would have to thank her mother for passing such a good-looking genetic to him.

"Mrs. Shelby, take all the time you need. I'll bring the kid upstairs so you all could have the space," Meredith said
politely.
without any delay, Ivy rejected it, "You can't bring Cooper upstairs. II
Meredith did not understand.
Ivy quickly explained, "Cooper is diagnosed with autism. He's afraid of strangers so I can't let him leave me."
"But he wants to play with me." Suddenly, a young voice came from the stairs.
Everyone looked and Nia was there. She smiled at everyone and waved her hand at the little boy. "Hi, do you want
to play with me?

The little boy got up from the sofa and walked to Nia. Meredith hurried and followed him. "I'll take care of them."
Josiah knew Meredith wanted to run away. He strode and pulled her back. He looked at her. "Edith, you don't have
to avoid US. Let's face the problem together and solve it together too."
