Chapter 1279
Nia patted the back of old Madam Shelby's hand with her little hand. "Great Grandma, take care of yourself. We'll
get going."
"Nia is the sweetest girl, and I like you the most." Old Madam Shelby kissed her on the forehead affectionately.
After kissing Nia, Old Madam Shelby went to kiss Cooper. "Of course, I also adore Cooper."
Cooper leaned calmly to the side, avoiding old Madam Shelby's kiss. Fortunately, everyone was used to Cooper's
aloofness, and Old Madam Shelby did not take it to heart. Instead, she just patted Cooper's head.
"If it weren't for you two having to go to school, I wouldn't let you leave."
"Mm! Goodbye, Great Grandma!" Nia replied cheerfully.
Old Madam Shelby finally let go of the little ones and turned to Josiah.
Josiah instinctively wanted to avoid her, but Old Madam Shelby ordered, "stop!"

Old Madam Shelby's expression was completely different than before, and she stared at Josiah angrily, saying,
"Josiah, if you can't handle your own mess, don't come back to see me."
"Yes, Grandma. If I don't sort out my own matters, I'll take my own life by self-disembowelment, okay?" Josiah
replied nicely.
"You'd better be a man of your word." Old Madam Shelby glared at him. Then, she walked over and pulled
Meredith's hand. Once again, Old Madam Shelby became reluctant as she said to Meredith, "Edith, just let me know
if Josiah dares to bully you again. I'll take care of him for you."
Meredith chuckled, "Grandma, don't worry. I can handle him myself."
"That's good to hear."
"Grandma, you and Grandpa must take good care of yourself. We'll come back and visit you when we have time."
"Okay. Remember to come back often."
After saying goodbye to old Madam Shelby, Meredith got into the car with Josiah.
Josiah leaned into her ear and asked, "Miss Meredith, are you that strong now? Can you really handle me?"
Meredith raised her head at him. "Josiah, your biggest mistake was to bring me back to life, stopping me from
fearing you and needing you."
Josiah pondered. "Is that a mistake?"
"It's definitely so for you." Meredith smiled. "If you ever bully me, I can turn around and leave gracefully even if you
don't take your own life by self-disembowelment."
Josiah looked at her confident expression and felt a little sad, but more than that, he was happy.
He was happy for her.
Josiah had always wanted Meredith to be the beautiful and confident Meredith she was before, and it seemed she
had become just that.
"Okay." He clenched her little hand and nodded. "I won't let you have this chance."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBack in Jehovah City, the first thing Meredith did was go to the company to deal with the piling work during the New
Year.
Josiah was the same, and he was even busier than her.
In the evening, Meredith received a call from Josiah. As she was still busy at work, she asked with the phone
between her head and shoulder, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing. I just want to ask if my busy wife has time for supper together."
"I'm sorry, I don't," Meredith replied, "find someone else to accompany you."
"Who else can I find besides you?" Josiah was a little aggrieved.
"Find Liam. Isn't he in Jehovah City?"
"He has a fiancee now, so why would he have time for me?"
"Then why don't you just go home and close the door, then think about how you're going to get through tomorrow?
It's the sixth," Meredith teased deliberately.
"Meredith, you're doing this on purpose."
"You're right. I'm doing this on purpose."
Josiah was suddenly in a good mood. "If it bothers you so much, you can bring me and escape the marriage...you
can bring me anywhere you want to."
