Chapter 784
“Fine, fine, fine. I won’t say anything anymore. I know you like her the best,” Mary said while rolling her eyes at
Charlie.
Meredith entered with the oatmeal porridge she just made.
Seeing Charlie awake, she immediately smiled and said, “Charlie, you’re up. Are you feeling better?”
“Meredith, the pain is still quite unbearable.” Meredith reached out and ruffled his head. “Don’t hold it in. When it
hurts, yell out. It feels better. I won’t laugh at you.” Charlie took her hand from his head and said, “Meredith,
haven’t I said it before? Don’t touch or pat my head. It feels like you’re doting on a child.” Charlie was most

poured the oatmeal porridge out from the thermos. She put it in front of him and said gently, “Charlie, let’s eat
some.” “Meredith, what sort of oatmeal porridge did you make for me? It smells amazing.”
“Of course, it’s the one that you like.” Meredith scooped a spoonful of porridge and blew on it before feeding him.
“Come, have a taste and see if it’s any good.” –
Charlie took a mouthful and nodded. “Your cooking skills are always amazing, Meredith.” Mary saw how lovey-dovey
they were being, she suddenly felt as if she was unwanted. She instructed Charlie to rest well before leaving the
hospital.
After Mary left, Charlie held Meredith’s hand and said, “Meredith, my mom must have said something terrible to
you, right?” Meredith shook her head. “No. How would she?”
Mary’s son’s leg was already crippled, so naturally, Meredith understood how terrible she was feeling. Thus, no
matter what nasty things Mary said to her, she would not take them to heart. “I don’t believe you,” Charlie held
Meredith’s hand and said seriously, “Meredith, no matter what my mom said to you, you don’t have to take it to
heart. Just remember that I love you. Other people are not important.”
“Okay.” Meredith looked at Charlie’s serious expression. She was a little moved.
She grabbed his hand in return. “Charlie, you, too. No matter what happens in the future, don’t take it to heart. Just
remember that I love you. The other matters are not important.”
“Are you for real?” Charlie was even more touched than her. After all, she rarely said such words with such sincerity
to him. “Come, let’s continue eating.” Meredith continued feeding him.
Charlie nodded and smiled in relief.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter staying in the hospital for a week, Charlie was feeling much better. His injury did not hurt that much anymore.
In the afternoon, after Meredith had finished her work, she went to school to pick Nia up and they headed to the
hospital to see Charlie.
Seeing Meredith and Nia, Charlie was delighted, but he still said to Meredith, “Meredith, there are a lot of viruses in
the hospital, don’t bring Nia here so often.” Meredith said, “Nia was asking to see her Papa Charlie.”
Nia and Charlie were always close to each other. When she knew that Charlie was sick, she would surely want to
visit him. “Is that so?” Charlie looked at Nia and said, “Aren’t you afraid of the viruses?” “I’m very healthy now. I’m
not afraid of viruses anymore.” Nia walked over to Charlie and held his hand. She said, “Papa Charlie, don’t worry.
You will get well soon.” “Hmm. I will.” Charlie nodded. “Once I get discharged, I can send you to school, Nia.”
