Meredith scoffed coldly, “Plus, we still don’t know if Nia recognizes him.”
Charlie was slightly relieved at Meredith’s response.
“I’m glad that you’re able to think like that. I’m just worried that you’d be affected and manipulated by him like how
it was back then.”
“It won’t happen again,” Meredith smiled bitterly, patted his shoulders, and said, “I am already twenty-seven this
year. I am not that helpless and weak person that I was years ago, the one who only knew how to get on her knees
to cry and beg.”
“And me too,” Charlie smiled and went on, “I went from not ineligible to get married to being eligible to get
married.”
“Congratulations. You’re finally able to marry the person that you like.”

“Whenever is fine.”
“Really?” Charlie sat up straight immediately. With a surprised look on his face, he asked,” Edith, I’m not hearing
things, am I? Did you just say that we can get married whenever? Or is this just a dream?”
Grabbing Meredith’s hand in his, he said, “Edith, slap me so that I can make sure that this is real.”
Laughing, Meredith pinched his cheek lightly and said, “How could I bring myself to slap you? But I can assure you
that this is not a dream.”
“This is really happening!”
Charlie got up onto his feet abruptly and started running around the living room excitedly. He came to a halt in front
of Meredith, held her hands in his, and said, “Edith, let’s go register our marriage tomorrow! Let’s do it tomorrow!”
Seeing how Charlie was too excited to even sit still, she sat him down forcefully and said, ” First, it’s a weekend
tomorrow. Second, this is your marriage that we’re talking about. Shouldn’t you at least get permission from your
family?”
Charlie smacked his forehead. “Right, it’s Saturday tomorrow.”
He hesitated before saying, “How about this? We’ll go visit my mom and grandma tomorrow and we’ll register our
marriage on Monday.”
“Your grandmother is in Jehovah City?”
“Yeah, I was on the phone with my mom earlier today.”
“Didn’t she scold you?”
“Nah. She was worried that I’ll disappear on her if she scolds me again,” Charlie smiled and went on, “don’t worry,
Edith. My mom won’t be able to do anything as long as I’ve set my mind to it. As for my grandma, she adores you a
lot so I don’t think it would be a problem.”
Aside from Josiah, Charlie was not worried about anyone else who would come in between him and Meredith.
Meredith nodded but added, “But promise me that you would not fight with your family if they oppose our

“Don’t worry, Edith. I understand.”
“That’s good then,” Meredith paused before saying, “you must be tired, aren’t you? Go shower and get some rest.”
“What about you?”
“I still have some work to do.” “Let me help you.” “It’s alright, I can settle it on my own,” Meredith urged him.
Charlie had no choice but to go upstairs.
Meredith went back to her bedroom and started working.
Her assistant, Goldie, called Meredith to inform her that Yoseph of the Shelby Group had been asking to meet with
Meredith.
Meredith was aware of this and she knew that it was Josiah who wanted to meet her. Since she had no plans of
avoiding him, Meredith knew that meeting him was inevitable. Meredith paused before saying, “Please tell Mister
Josiah to meet me at Luna Club.” “At this time?” Goldie was hesitant. “Miss Meredith, it’s almost ten. Isn’t it a bit too
late?” “It’s fine. Luna Club opens till late midnight anyway.” “Okay then. I’ll inform Mister Yoseph.”
