Chapter 1370
"What if they help me? Will you compromise?"
"That's unnecessary."
Meredith turned and walked in the direction from which she came.
Josiah followed her and took her little hand, "slow down. Wait for me."
"Josiah, aren't you hungry? why are you still dilly-dallying?
"I'm not hungry."
"Even if you're not, the children are probably starving."
"They won't be. They were given fruits to eat when they returned to the villa from the aquarium."
Meredith slowed down a little after hearing him say that.
Back at the villa, the children had finished eating their fruits. Seeing Daddy and Mommy, Nia, the tiny foodie,

delicious food behind our backs?"
"We didn't. We just went for a walk at the beach, and we didn't even eat any fruits." Meredith went and sat between
the kids.
Cooper thoughtfully offered her a piece of fruit immediately.
"Thank you, Cooper." Meredith happily took it and kissed the two on the cheek after eating the fruit. "Would you like
to eat? If you're hungry, let's eat now."
"Yes!" Nia quickly nodded.
"You're such a foodie, Nia. You're always the loudest." Meredith pinched Nia's cheek affectionately and added, "But I
like it."
Nia instantly burst into laughter.
Josiah looked at the three of them and felt a little left out. He could not help but fake a cough and reminded them,
"Cooper, Nia...I'm a little thirsty."
Immediately, Nia brought him a glass of juice. "Daddy, have some juice. It's all-natural."
"Thank you, but I don't like juices."
Nia then brought a glass of water for him. "Daddy, how about some plain water?"
"But this water is too cold. I'm afraid of getting a stomach ache after drinking it."
"Then let me add some hot water." Nia walked over and prepared to heat the water.
Cooper hurriedly took over her job, obviously worried that she would burn herself.
Meredith glanced at Josiah speechlessly. "Josiah, please be more sensible even if you want their attention, what if
Cooper burns himself?"
Josiah was confident in Cooper. "Cooper is not as incompetent as you think."
"No matter how smart or amazing he is, he's just a child."
Unexpectedly, Cooper chimed in, "Mommy, I can do it."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJosiah nodded immediately and agreed. "That's right, Cooper said it's okay, but Mommy always treats you as three-
year-olds."
Meredith rarely heard Cooper speak, and she was naturally moved.
She pulled Cooper into her arms excitedly. "Cooper, I know you can, and I really believe you can. You and Nia are
my darlings. I'm just worried about you being burned because burns hurt the most."
Josiah shook his head, unable to stand what he saw. Then, he uttered,"Overprotective parenting will only result in
spoiled children."
"Who are you to say?" Meredith glared at him. "Nia isn't spoiled."
"Yes, you're also the best mother for raising both children so well. " Josiah praised with a smile.
Meredith finally stopped talking. In fact, Josiah's love would be even more extravagant when it comes to pampering
the children. After all, he was willing to make a moon for Nia.
"Excuse me, three best darlings, but can we go to dinner now?" Josiah smiled and asked.
"Yes!" Nia got up first, then pulled Cooper, her beloved brother, and said, "Cooper, let's go eat."
Cooper nodded and pulled Meredith's hand.
As she passed Josiah, Meredith pulled him along. "Together."
The family of four was hand-in-hand, forming a long line. "What do you want to eat today?" Josiah asked.
