Chapter 1254
"Okay, thank you."
The nurse finally sighed in relief.
Right when Meredith was about to enter the lift, she received a call from Josiah.
"Edith, I just saw Ivy walking out of the building. Where are you?"
"I’m making my way out now. You should go on and follow her," Meredith urged.
"What about you?" Josiah was slightly startled, "Aren't you coming with me?"
"It might be too late if you wait for me."
"Did something happen?"
"It’s nothing. I just want to know where she’s heading next," Meredith went on, "so hurry up and
follow her, make sure that you don't lose her. I'll meet up with you after that."
"Alright, wait for me then. I'll come over and pick you up after this."

There was a mall right opposite the hospital. Meredith shopped for toys for both Nia and Cooper.
By the time she was done, Josiah had already arrived.
She got into the car urgently and asked, "So? Did you manage to follow her?"
"Yeah. She went to the pediatric hospital in town," Josiah went on, "but Walter lost her in the hospital. He didn’t
manage to see where she went exactly."
Walter, who was in the driver’s seat, looked apologetic. " I'm sorry Miss Meredith. I should have done a better job."
"It's alright. I could already guess what she's doing there."
"You know about it?" Looking at her, Josiah asked, " What is she up to?"
"She..." Meredith took a glance at Walter and pulled down the partition before whispering into Josiah's ear, " She is
looking for a little girl diagnosed with septicemia. II
"Why?"
"I'm not sure either." Meredith was curious too and went on, "She told the nurse that she was the little girl's aunt
and that she wanted to visit her.”
"Ivy has no siblings."
"So it was clearly a lie," Meredith asked, "do you perhaps know who the little girl is? Who is Ivy?"
Josiah stayed silent for a moment. He too was puzzled.
"It can't be her daughter, right?" Meredith gasped as she pointed at Josiah, "Do you perhaps have another daughter
hidden away somewhere?"
Josiah gave a light knock on Meredith's head and said, " What are you talking about? If she was really my daughter,
why would Ivy need to hide her? She could have confronted me about it and used that to force me to marry her,
don't you think?"
Meredith thought that what Josiah said did make sense.
"But, Mister Josiah, you do agree that Ivy is acting a little strange, yes?"
"I do, Meredith," Josiah nodded.
"I am being serious here."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Then what's with 'Mister Josiah'?" Josiah clearly did not like how Meredith was addressing him.
Meredith had no choice but to correct herself, "Dear Joe, may I know what you think about this
situation?"
"Nothing much for now. But don’t worry, I'll make sure to look into it."
"And what are you planning to do?"
"Ivy is looking for a little girl with septicemia, isn't she? I'll just search all the hospitals here in
Delmas Town and I think we'll be able to find the girl."
"Mm, if that's the case, we'll be able to find out why Ivy was looking for the girl and who the girl
is to Ivy," Meredith nodded and went on, "what are you waiting for then? Hurry up and get it
down."
Josiah smiled. "I can do it with just a phone call. What's the rush?”
He then reached for his phone and called Wesley.
After getting off the phone with Wesley, Josiah put away his phone and put his arm around
Meredith's shoulders. "I’ve asked Wesley to look into it. Can we go watch the musical show
now?"
It was then that Meredith remembered the tickets that Ivy had given her.
