Chapter 1227
It took Meredith a great deal of effort to push Josiah back to the study to sleep last night, so Meredith slept through
the night quietly. When she woke up the next day, she realized that the sun was particularly bright.
She drew the curtains and was thinking if she should take Cooper and Nia out to play for a little since the weather
was so nice.
She stood by the window for a while, and when she turned around, she accidentally saw a person who was in a
hurry.
She took a closer look and saw that it was Suzy.
It was originally nothing strange to see Suzy on the first floor. What was strange was that Suzy was carrying a bag
of things, and she was walking toward the annex in a panic.
That was strange, what was Suzy doing going to the annex so early in the morning? Also, she looked like she was
afraid to be found out by others.
Very quickly, Suzy's figure vanished at the turning corner.

Lily's voice could be heard. "Miss Meredith, have you gotten out of bed?
Breakfast is ready."
Meredith responded, "I'll be right three."
She thought of the way Suzy looked just now, so she suddenly walked over, opened the door, and asked, "Lily, why
did Suzy go to the annex?"
"What?" Lily did not understand for a moment.
Meredith said in a softer voice, "oh, I saw Suzy carrying a bag just now and went to the annex very sneakily. I don't
know what Suzy went to do."
If she had just seen Suzy sneaking into the annex, Meredith may not have been that curious. The main thing was
that when she went to the annex to put the flowers two days ago, she was stopped by Suzy.
She remembered that Suzy's reaction at that time was quite strange. It was as if she was quite afraid of Meredith
entering the annex.
Could it be that there were some secrets in there?
Meredith suddenly thought of a person—Ivy!
Ever since that night she drugged Josiah, Ivy had not made an appearance for a few days. Could it be...
Lily glanced in the direction of the annex and spoke softer like her, "Miss Meredith, do you need me to go and take a
look?"
"Is it not too good like that?" Meredith said that, but she was actually still hoping that Lily could go and see what was
going on.
"It's fine. I'll go and take a look then."
Upon saying that, Lily turned around and went down the stairs.
Meredith pondered a little, and then she walked to Cooper's bedroom.
Ever since they moved to Josiah's mansion, Nia had been fussing every night that she wanted to sleep together with
her brother, so the children were in a room together.
What she did not expect was that Josiah would also be present and he was extremely focused on playing chess with
Cooper.
Meredith went in to have a look and saw that the great Mister Josiah was not just losing by a little.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mommy, look, Cooper is so amazing," Nia told Meredith while pointing at the chessboard with a bright smile.
Meredith nodded and sat next to her. "He is indeed very amazing."
Josiah let out a dry cough with slight awkwardness and said, " We're not done yet. How do you know that Cooper is
more amazing?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Meredith said directly.
Nia also nodded at the said and added, "Yes, Daddy. Cooper is a genius, to begin with. It's not embarrassing to lose
to him."
Josiah said, "You've said it like I wasn't a genius when I was a child. II
"Mm-hmm. Daddy is also wonderful," Nia immediately praised him.
Meredith raised her hand and rubbed her little head for a moment. "Are you a fence-sitter? You agree with both
sides so quickly."
Nia chuckled, rested her chin in both her hands and cheered for her Daddy.
In the end, of course, it was Mister Josiah who lost. Also, he was sincerely convinced of the outcome.
While putting the chest pieces away, he asked in confusion, " Cooper, I recall that your mommy is only average at
playing chess. Why are you so good?"
Also, his skill of casually cracking his security system could not have been taught by Ivy. Where exactly did he learn
that from?
