Chapter 987
Nia merely asked sadly, “So does that mean I can’t see you much in the future?”
Meredith thought for a while before saying, “I’ll promise you that I’ll return to see you once I am free, alright?”
“But I’ll still miss you, Mommy.” Nia suddenly leaned forward and hugged her. “Mommy, can’t you bring me along?”
“Nia, I’ll miss you too.” Meredith hugged Nia in her arms tightly. “But I really can’t take you along. You saw what
Papa Charlie’s situation is like. I need all my energy to care for him to let him get better quickly. Nia, you don’t hope
that Papa Charlie remains so down all the time too, right?”
Nia nodded. “I hope that Papa Charlie will get better quickly. That way, I could see Daddy and Mommy every day.
Mommy, I don’t mind that you and Daddy split up, but I do not want to lose the two of you. I want to be able to see
you two every day, like in the past.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I know.” Meredith lowered her head and kissed Nia on the forehead. “I will come back to see you, Nia.”
Nia nodded.
Nia was in Meredith’s arms for a while before looking up and asking her. “Mommy, is Papa Charlie in Jehovah City?
Can I see him? I haven’t seen him for a long time.”
“Yes, but he has lost his memories. He no longer remembers you, Nia, so…let’s wait for him to get better and
return before you see him.”
It was not that she did not want them to meet. It was mainly because Charlie had lost his memories. He was
already treating her so badly. She guessed that he would not treat Nia any better. She was afraid that Nia would be
frightened.
“Papa Charlie lost his memories?” Nia asked in surprise, “How did that happen?”
“He fell sick a few days back and lost his memories, but don’t worry, Nia. The doctor said that he would get better.”
Nia nodded. “Okay, then. Once Papa Charlie gets better, please return, Mommy.”
“Okay, I promise you.”
Meredith said bitterly, “When I’m not around, you have to take care of yourself. If there is anything, ask Daddy for
help, okay?”
“Hmm. Mommy, don’t worry. I will take good care of myself.”
“My Nia is the best!” Meredith lamented while hugging Nia in relief.
Josiah was right. Nia was so understanding. She should have told her the truth long ago and not used work as an
excuse to avoid her.
Nia was indeed understanding. When she knew that Papa Charlie was in Jehovah City, she said, “Mommy, it’s late.
Go back quickly to care for Papa Charlie.”
“Are you sure?” Meredith lowered her head and looked at Nia. “What about you, Nia? Will you cry when I leave?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I won’t.” Nia shook her head. “Because Papa Charlie needs Mommy more than me.”
“Then, I’ll come to see you tomorrow, okay?”
“Okay.”
“Come, let’s have some fruits first.” Meredith brought the washed fruits over and passed Nia one.
Nia also passed one to Meredith. “Mommy, let’s eat together.”
“Okay.”
Josiah returned to the ward to see mother and daughter happily eating fruits. It looked like their talk went well. He
should be happy, but he felt a little unpleasant. Subconsciously, he would rather they did not have a good talk. That
way, maybe she would stay back.
