Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 688

Chapter 688 After staying at the hospital for a while, the doctor advised Meredith to return home.

The reason was that Josiah was in the intensive care unit, she could not see him nor be with him. There was no

need for her to stay at the hospital. She should just head home instead.

Meredith agreed to it.

When she returned home, Alfred immediately asked her, “How is he doing? Is it serious?”

“I don’t know about it for now. Let’s wait and see.” Meredith saw the bag on the sofa. She asked, “Has Nia

returned?”

“Yes. She has to go to school tomorrow. Old Madam Shelby got Walter to send her back,” Alfred said, “Nia has been

looking for her Daddy and Mommy. Lily is tending to her right now.

“I’ll go have a look.” Meredith headed upstairs.

Sure enough, Nia was not asleep yet. She kept asking where her parents had gone too. Lily did not know how to

comfort her. She could only tell Nia that her parents were still outside, and they had not returned yet.

Seeing Meredith, Nia finally smiled brightly. “Mommy, you’re finally back.” “Ma’am.” Lily immediately got up from

the chair. She asked, “How was it?” “We still have to wait,” Meredith said to Lily, “why don’t you go rest? I’ll be with

Nia.” “Okay, then.” Lily sighed and left.

“Nia, why are you still not sleeping?” Meredith ruffled her head. “You have to go to school tomorrow. What if you

can’t wake up?”

Nia looked at her seriously. “Because Daddy isn’t here. I can’t sleep.”

Meredith was speechless.

That was right. Ever since Nia got discharged from the hospital and returned home, Josiah had been accompanying

her to bed. This has been their habit.

However, Josiah had been in an accident. Whether he could come around or not was still a mystery. If he could

not…

Meredith shook her head. She could not bear to think of how Nia would react then.

“Mommy, is Daddy back yet?” Nia looked at the door. “Why isn’t Daddy coming to sleep with me?”

“Daddy is…” Meredith thought for a while. She decided to not tell Nia the truth.

“Daddy is out on a business trip. He hasn’t returned yet, so you might have to make do with Mommy tonight.”

“What?” Nia was disappointed, “When will he be back?”

“Maybe in a few more days.”

“That’s a long time.” Nia was even more disappointed. She looked at Meredith and asked, ” Mommy, can’t Daddy

come home earlier? I’ll miss him.”

“Uh…we’ll have to see how busy daddy’s work is.” Meredith patted Nia on the hand. “Alright, Nia. It’s late. Go to

bed.”

Nia obediently shut her eyes. Her usual smile fell to a frown. Meredith could see that she truly missed Josiah.

Meredith could not help but think back to the scene when Josiah was being pushed out of the emergency room. His

pale face and injuries. It was dangerous.

She shook her head and forced herself not to think about him.

The next day, Meredith sent Nia to school, before heading to the hospital to work as usual. At the hospital entrance,

she bumped into Charlie.

Charlie pulled her to a corner and measured her up concernedly, “Meredith, are you alright? Why have you not

been picking up my calls?” Meredith shook her head and pried his hands open. “What could happen to me?”
