Chapter 834
As soon as Meredith realized she was in Crest Care Hospital, she quickly kept her head lowered and avoided
bumping into people who know her. Regardless of that, she was too naive. At that point when her name got entered
into the hospital’s computer, the doctor immediately noticed it. In addition, her name was not that common so the
doctor quickly presumed it was the Meredith that he thought of. By the time, the doctor saw her face, he could
confirm that it was her.
When Josiah received the information from the hospital, he was playing sparkles with Nia by the river. His mind
went blank for a minute. Then he immediately called Nia who was playing happily with the other kids, “Nia, Daddy
needs to deal with an urgent matter. Can I let Uncle Walter send you back home first?”
“What?” Nia’s smile disappeared from her face immediately. She said sadly, “But you said you would bring me to
have supper and have fun in the igloo!”

“I’ll bring you out for supper tomorrow. And the igloo is a fake igloo. I’ll get someone to build a real igloo for you
tomorrow. Okay?” Josiah rubbed Nia’s head with tenderness. “I’m sorry. I did not keep my promise this time. I
promise I won’t do it again.”
There was nothing else Nia could say when Josiah looked so sincere and sorry. Thus, she said sadly,” Why is
everyone treating me like this now? Papa Charlie does not like to play with me anymore and you always rain check
on me.”
Josiah looked at Nia’s sad face and asked, “Papa Charlie doesn’t like to play with you anymore?”
“Yes. But I don’t blame him. I know he is in a bad mood because he can’t walk anymore,” Nia replied.
Josiah hesitated for a while before continuing asking, “Then has Papa Charlie ever hit you?”
Normally, Josiah would not ask Nia this type of question because he did not want Nia to get involved in the feud
between the adults.
“Of course not.” Nia shook her head. “He really likes Mommy and me. In the past, he would always play with me.
But he is in a bad mood because of his legs so he no longer plays with me.”
Josiah nodded. “That’s right. Papa Charlie is in a bad mood now. When he feels better, he will be back to his old self.
And if he won’t play with you anymore, I will try my best to squeeze more time out to play with you. Nia will forever
be a happy little princess.”
He carried Nia and walked toward the car. Nia put her arms around Josiah’s neck and asked curiously,” Daddy, why
did you divorce Mommy if you loved me so much?”
Josiah stopped walking and looked at Nia with surprise.
Nia said seriously, “Mommy said you that you two do not have feelings for each other so the both of you decided to
separate. I know that it’s very hard to live together if you do not have feelings for the other person. But I just don’t

Josiah stretched his lips and said helplessly, “I don’t understand it too.”
“What? You don’t understand it too?” Nia was surprised.
“Maybe I was too stupid in the past. And too bad. I didn’t know how to appreciate your Mommy,” Josiah tried to
explain.
“Oh, I see. Then it’s all your fault,” Nia commented.
“Yes, it’s all my fault,” Josiah repeated.
As Josiah said, he really did think it was his fault. Otherwise, they would be celebrating Christmas as a
whole family together instead of him and Nia only.
After Josiah and Nia got in the car, Josiah requested Walter to send him to the hospital and sent Nia back to the
mansion to let Lily take care of her. When the doctor had just finished putting the medicine on Meredith’s wound,
Meredith got scared as Josiah came running in while she was about to put on a bandage on her wound.
She was startled and started to imagine when she saw him rushing in. As if she did not need to envy the other
couples when she was walking on the street tonight. She felt like she actually had the same happiness as them,
there was a man who loved and worried for her in her life.
