"This cocktail is very sweet," Meredith said after taking a sip."It's actually more like a syrup than alcohol. But the mixture tastes not bad." Josiah also took a sip and moved his glasses closer to Meredith. "Come, let's cheer."Meredith did not reject it and touched her glass with his. The singer started singing on the stage. Probably it was already quite late in the night, the entire place had only two guests which were Meredith and Josiah.The singer chose to sing a soft ballad. Meredith used a hand to support her face while she gazed at the young male singer. She did not even hear anything Josiah said. Thus, Josiah followed her sight and found her gazing at the young and handsome singer. Suddenly, jealousy creeped out of him."Edith." He waved his hand in front of her. "Why are you looking at another person when the father of your child is right here?"Meredith stopped dazing and coughed, "I just think that he is a good singer.""You can just listen to his voice if you thin

Meredith squinted her eyes and gazed at Josiah with blurred eyes. "You like kids?"Josiah thought she was referring to those kids to whom he provided accommodation. "No, I only like Nia."The reason why he fully sponsored the piano competition organized by the Love Youth Training Institutions was that he wanted to make Meredith and Nia happy."I mean your own kids," Meredith said."Yes, of course, I do," Josiah answered."Then why don't you find yourself a wife and have your own kids if you like kids these two years?" Meredith asked.Josiah looked at her and was speechless. "Meredith Leighton, do you still need to ask when you already know the answer to that question?It was then Meredith realized she was asking a dumb question. However, two years was not a short period of time. He could actually wait for them when she and Nia were completely missing without any news. Guessed he really did care about her and Nia.Meredith crackled but it was a desolate type of laugh."What are

Josiah looked surprised when Meredith asked that question. He smiled faintly. "Do you think I'll do anything? Or should I ask, can't you feel it yourself if I did anything to you?"Meredith was lost in words. As she expected, she should not ask that question at all.Josiah saw the embarrassingly look on her face and knew he should stop teasing her. "Don't worry. I did nothing other than piggyback you back here and placed you on the bed.""You did not say good night to me?" Meredith asked without thinking much."Oh. Of course, I did," Josiah replied.There was more Meredith wanted to ask but she was too shy to ask. 'Argh, screw it. It doesn't matter if it was real or a dream. I'll just pretend I don't know anything.'She got off the bed and walked to the bathroom. After she freshened up and changed her clothes, the waiter was just there to send breakfast when she was walking downstairs."Come and eat your breakfast." Josiah waved at her."You haven't had your breakfast? Did Nia

The competition started and many kids performed quite well. Of course, they were nothing compared to Nia, who could already play very well when she was three years old.Nia held the trophy and ran into Josiah's arm. Josiah carried her up and turned one round and praised her, "The other kids did well but Nia did the best!""Thank you, Daddy!" Nia kissed Josiah's cheek and also Meredith's Cheek. "Mommy, thank you too.""Good girl. Shall we go out to the sea to celebrate you winning first prize?" Josiah asked."Oh, yes!" Nia cheered and looked at Meredith, "Mommy, can you go?"Although Meredith was not feeling comfortable, she did not want to ruin Nia's mood, so she nodded and agreed, "Yes, sure.""But…" She looked at Josiah, "I'm not the one who is scared of water. You should ask your Daddy if he is okay with it.""What? Daddy is afraid of the water?" Nia asked surprisingly.Josiah knew Meredith was talking about the time he nearly drowned when he was a kid. He smiled. "A little.

However, Meredith did not want to be seen as purposely distancing herself from Josiah. Thus, she still put a shrimp ball onto Josiah's plate. Before she started to eat her food, Josiah said, "I want one more."Meredith paused what she was doing and gave him another one."One more, please."Meredith was lost in words. When she gave him for the third time, she said, "If you eat more, then there is no more for Nia and me.""It's fine. We can order another plate." Josiah looked at the shrimp ball on his plate and ate it satisfyingly.It had been a long time since Meredith gave him food, so he wanted to take the time to enjoy it.Nia cooperated nicely with Josiah. "Mommy, you can give more to Daddy. One is enough for me.""Hurry up and finish your food." Meredith urged, "Do you still want to go out to the sea?""Yes." Nia quickly ate her food when she heard Meredith ask.When they finished lunch, they took the car that was arranged to arrive at the pier where they board a luxury me
