Chapter 1151
It was a relief that the siblings had a good relationship, but as Nia said, it would be better if they were both from the
same mother.
It was a pity indeed.
Shaking her head, Meredith tugged at the corners of her lips, and walked in, "Dessert is here!"
"Here Cooper, try if it tastes good," she put the spoon near Cooper's mouth.
Cooper tried the dessert and nodded his head.
Meredith was relieved and continued feeding him, "Have more if it's good."
Cooper took the bowl from Meredith and started eating on his own.
He was not a three-year-old kid anymore, it was expected that he would not want to be fed.
Shortly after, Josiah rushed back home.

me the truth."
Meredith knew right away that Josiah was thinking the same thing as her.
She noticed Cooper's pitiful look and replied to Josiah, "I've asked Cooper earlier and he said that it was not Miss Ivy
who asked him to come here. And I believe Cooper."
"You actually believe him?" Josiah sounded stern as he went on, " Edith, think about what today is. And Cooper had
only met Nia a few times, how would he sneak out just to come to find Nia?"
"What day is it today?" Meredith asked.
"The day that we decided to get re-married."

"I already told you that Ivy..."
"Josiah Shelby!" Meredith interrupted him. Feeling rather agitated, she went on, "Do you really think that it's
appropriate for you to talk bad about someone else's mother? where are your manners?"
Meredith was looking at him with a look of disbelief on her face.
The Josiah she knew was always well-mannered even if there were times when he could be cruel and ruthless.
He was never the type to be talking badly about someone else's mother.
Josiah was rather taken aback by her sudden criticism. He slowly realized that he had indeed gone overboard.
Feeling apologetic, he held Meredith's hands in his and said, " Sorry Edith. I'm just afraid that I would lose you and I
went overboard. Plus..."
He took a look at Cooper who stayed quiet and lowered his voice, " As I told you yesterday, Ivy is not an easy
opponent."
"I don't know Ivy well enough but Cooper is still a child and I believe him," Meredith replied.
"Edith, Cooper is still young and he doesn't know better," Josiah sighed helplessly and added, "do you really think
that a seven-year -old kid would be able to destroy an entire security system?"

She too did not know why she chose to believe Cooper.
All she knew was that the first time she met him on the plane, she felt rather attracted to Cooper and for some
reason, she trusted him. Hence, no matter what Cooper said, she trusted him fully.
But it was rather impossible and ridiculous to think that a seven year-old kid would be able to get past an entire
security system.
Josiah also did not know why Meredith would act this way.
Could it be that as she claimed, she had a sweet spot for kids?
To knock Meredith back into her senses, Josiah had no choice but to keep pushing it. He then said to Cooper, "Fine. I
can believe that it was Cooper who came here on his own if he showed me how he got past the security system."
He stood in front of Cooper, grabbed him by his shoulder, and asked sternly, "Kid, let me make this clear, I will be
angry at you if I find out that you lied to me, do you understand me?"
Tears immediately rushed down Cooper's face.
Meredith quickly stood in front of Cooper and fumed, "Are you crazy, Josiah? How could you talk to a child this
way?"
