Chapter 1064
“Nia is afraid of the thunder?” Meredith asked.
She did not remember Nia being afraid of thunder.
“It’s still okay for her when it’s not that loud, but she gets terrified when it gets louder,” Lily replied.
Meredith turned around to see that Josiah had already left.
She then checked the time and realized that it was indeed a little late.
She finally decided to stay for the night for the sake of Nia.
Meredith returned to her previous bedroom.
Lily went to the kitchen and prepared a bowl of noodles for Josiah. Puzzled, she asked, “Sir, what are you doing?”
Josiah insisted on not having the food that Meredith prepared and insisted on wanting Meredith to leave. But in the
meantime, he was secretly giving an eye to Lily asking Lily to convince Meredith to stay for the night.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLily was utterly confused.
Slurping the noodles, Josiah replied, “It’s called playing hard-to-get.”
“What? What hard-to-get?” Lily did not understand what he was saying.
Josiah lifted his head, looked at her, and said, “It’s nothing. All you have to do, Lily, is to try to make her stay when I
insist that she leaves. You don’t have to care about the other stuff.”
“Okay,” Lily nodded but she could not help and asked again, “but would this really work on Miss Meredith?”
“I’m not sure either. But we’ll see.”
Josiah was not sure if this approach would work but he agreed with what Mister Wesley had
said. So he had to change his plan.
Lily walked out of Josiah’s room and went to Meredith’s room.
“You’re still up, Lily,” Meredith greeted her gently.
Lily replied, “Sir didn’t have dinner so he asked me to make him some noodles,”
“I see. And has he eaten?”
“He did.”
“He…he is okay, yes?”
“He looks fine to me. Don’t worry too much, Miss Meredith.”
Lily added, “And let me know if you need anything, Miss Meredith.”
“I will, Lily. You’re the person that I trust the most in this house. I will rely on you a lot.”
“I’m glad that you think that way.” Lily nodded and then said to her, “Oh, I wanted to ask if you’re hungry. There are
still some noodles left.”
“Thanks, Lily, but I’m good.”
“If that’s the case, I’ll leave you to rest now.” Lily then walked out of the room.
Before going to bed, Meredith checked on Nia in her room. After making sure that Nia was tucked properly under
the covers and that the room temperature was right, Meredith only went back to her room to sleep.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though it was still raining outside, there were no thunderstorms.
To prepare breakfast for Nia, Meredith woke up earlier than usual.
She made Nia her favorite sandwich and made Josiah’s favorite pumpkin porridge.
Nia was especially happy to see Meredith stay for the night and even made her breakfast. With a sandwich in one
hand and a glass of milk in the other, Nia was eating away happily.
“Eat slowly,” Meredith reminded her.
“Mommy, I can’t. I have to leave for school soon,” Nia said.
“Will Daddy be sending you to school?”
“I’ın not sure.”
“Is he still sleeping?”
“No, he woke up. I even greeted him good morning just now.”
“Then why is he not coming down for breakfast?”
Clueless, Nia shook her head.
