Chapter 1026
Before she was done being speechless, Josiah already reached out his hand and pulled her over to let her sit on the
couch. Immediately after, he turned on the hairdryer and started helping her to blow dry her hair.
Meredith, who did not know what to say, could only go along with him.
His movements were just as gentle as usual. His long fingers were combing through her hair. He was gentle and it
was very comfortable.
As he helped Meredith blow dry her hair, she actually felt a little sleepy and almost fell asleep while leaning against
his body.
It was after the sound of the hairdryer was cut off that she suddenly woke up.
Without realizing it, she asked, “Is it done?”
“What‘s the matter? Have you not had enough?” Josiah was not blind. Of course, he could feel that she was unable
to help herself but to enjoy it just now. If it was not for the concern that her hair would be ruined, he would have
kept helping her to blow dry her hair. That was because he enjoyed the moment of him helping to blow dry her hair

Meredith was made a little uncomfortable by his question, so she let out a dry cough and said, “No. I just seemed a
little sleepy just now and I almost fell asleep.
“I told you you‘re sleepy.” Josiah put the hairdryer back into the cupboard, and then said to her, “Go to bed earlier if
you‘re feeling sleepy. Just let me take care of
Nia.”
“I‘d better do it,” Meredith said, “you should first return to your room to shower and rest.”
He was usually the one taking care of Nia. If she still let him take care of Nia when they were out for a vacation,
then she truly would feel slightly embarrassed.
When he did not care about Nia at all back then, she hated him very much. She did not want herself to become
hated by others as well.
It so happened that Nia just ran up the stairs at that moment. She ran so hard that she was covered in sweat. She
then pointed downstairs and said, “Daddy and Mommy, there are many children downstairs drinking iced tea. I also
want one, but the housekeeper won‘t let me.”
The housekeeper that she mentioned should be the attendant that was temporarily sent over to take care of the
family of three. Of course, she did not dare to simply let the child eat or drink anything.
“Nia, it‘s going to be hard for you to fall asleep if you drink iced tea late at night. Let‘s not drink that.”
“But why are they drinking it?”
“Well...maybe they‘ve gotten used to it, so they won‘t have trouble falling asleep.”
“Don‘t worry, Mommy. I won‘t have trouble falling asleep as well,” Nia said with a face full of anticipation.
Meredith was still going to say something, but Josiah beat her to the punch and said, “Then let the housekeeper
bring you to buy a cup, but remember that you have to have it hot.” “Alright. Thank you, Daddy!” Nia was so happy
that she jumped. She turned around and rushed downstairs excitedly while calling out, “Miss, Daddy has approved! I
can have tea!” Meredith was a little speechless when she heard Nia‘s laughter, which was gradually fading away in
the distance. Especially when she saw that Josiah could still laugh, she could not help but ask,” Have you always
been spoiling her like that?” “She‘s a girl. You can‘t keep a tight rein on her. Only then she wouldn‘t be tricked by a
boy with an iced tea when she grew up.” Josiah smiled and said, “Besides, isn‘t iced tea what you girls love the
most? Back then, when you also were making a fuss and saying that you wanted to buy iced tea when you were

“In the end, Miss Meredith could not fall asleep in the middle of the night, and she made such a fuss that I did not
get to sleep the whole night.” Meredith was truly just asking in passing earlier. When Josiah answered her like
that, she felt embarrassed. She remembered everything that happened that night. In order to avoid the
awkwardness, she changed the topic and said, “Forget it. If Nia couldn‘t fall asleep tonight and her competition
tomorrow is affected, then it‘s all on you.” “It‘s fine. The important thing is for her to participate.”
Anyway, he was the one who got someone to organize this competition at the last minute and the purpose was to
trick her into coming to the resort for a break
Since his goal has already been accomplished, it did not matter if she participated in the competition or not. “I‘ll go
downstairs to take a look at Nia.” Meredith turned around and headed downstairs. She also said to him, “Mister
Josiah, hurry up and go back to your room to have a rest. Don‘t stay in my room anymore.” Josiah said, “Alright.
Anything you say.”
