Chapter 865
Meredith took a sip of the red wine and said to Charlie, “Oh, and Charlie, the next time Yena comes to you and tells
you something, don’t believe anything she says. She’s just trying to come in between the both of US”
“Really?” Charlie put some salad on Meredith’s plate.
“Take this time as an example. She was trying to incite your resentment toward Josiah and she succeeded.”
“I fell for their tricks too easily.”
“It’s okay. Just promise me that you’ll not be swayed by her anymore.”
Because of Qira, Meredith could not hurt Yena, hence she could only try to make sure that Charlie would not be
influenced by Yena anymore.
“Okay, I promise,” Charlie replied.

himself.
Looking at Josiah, Josiah’s grandmother could not help but said, “You should really thank your lucky stars. If not, you
would have died a thousand times over.”
With a straight face, Josiah simply nodded.
Seeing how Josiah was in a gloomy state, Josiah’s grandmother tapped Nia on her shoulder, hinting at her.
Nia understood her right away and walked toward Josiah. “Daddy, are you not happy? Do you want to hear a joke?”
“It’s okay.” Josiah shook his head.
“Why? But you’ve always liked my jokes, haven’t you?”
“I injured my head and I’m worried that it might affect my wound if I laugh too much.”
“You’re right,” Nia tilted her head, gave it a hard thought, and mumbled to herself, “what should I do then? What
should I do to make Daddy happy?
“Daddy, let me sing you a song, then? Or should I dance?”
Josiah’s grandmother interrupted and said, “I think your Daddy has gone dumb after being hit by a car. He doesn’t
know how to smile anymore.”
“Really?” Nia studied her father carefully and shook her head. “I don’t think so. Daddy still looks smart and alert.
“Daddy, what should I do to make you happy?” Nia asked again.
Josiah finally reached out his hands and pulled Nia into a hug. He then said, “Daddy would be happy if you’re able to
get your great-grandma to go home.”
“Huh?” Nia was surprised. “Why don’t you want great-grandma to stay here to talk with you?”
“Because your great-grandma doesn’t know how to hold a proper conversation.”
Aside from mocking him, she would be criticizing him instead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKnowing that Josiah wanted her to leave, Josiah’s grandmother was, of course, upset. “What do you think you’re
doing, Josiah Shelby? Are you asking me to leave?”
“No, I simply want you to go home and get some rest,” Josiah added, “you should head back, Grandma. Staying
here would only make you more frustrated.”
In the end, Josiah’s grandmother left.
But as soon as she stepped out of the ward, she then said to Penny, “That bastard seems to be fine now, seeing
how he is getting on my nerves again.”
Penny could hear the relief in her tone, hence she simply pulled into a smile.
After his grandmother left, Josiah then grabbed Nia by her shoulder and asked, “Nia, has Mommy not come to visit
me once in the hospital?”
Nia shook her head. “No, but she did ask about how you’re doing.”
Meredith only asked about how he was recovering…
Noticing the disappointment in his eyes, Nia said to him, “Daddy, Mommy is now married to Papa Charlie and he is
the one that she likes. She won’t come to see you.” Hearing those adult-like words from Nia, Josiah got suspicious.
“Who told you that?”
