Chapter 938
In order to make Meredith happy, Josiah came back on time to accompany Meredith and Nia to have dinner tonight
and also followed Meredith to send Nia to school in the morning.
After they sent Nia to her classroom, Meredith said to Josiah, “I need to go back to the company today.”
“Okay, I will get some people to protect you,” Josiah said.
“No need. I don’t believe Charlie will be so ruthless and cruel to me,” Meredith rejected. She did not want to be so
high profile and did not want to escalate her relationship with Charlie to an
“I’m not sure if Charlie will do it or not but I’m sure Aunt Mary will certainly do it,” Josiah said solemnly.
Meredith did not have doubt about that. If Josiah was not there in time, she would be hurt by the people Mrs. Larson
sent. Thus, she did not continue to insist to reject Josiah’s offer. Yet, she reminded him,” Keep it low key.”

that Meredith arrived in the company safely.
After Mrs. Larson finished talking on the phone, she placed the phone on the table. She looked at Charlie,” They are
both living together and Josiah even sent her to work personally. Charlie…”
She glanced at Charlie’s fists which were clenching tightly. “Accept the reality. They love each other and they belong
together. No matter how hard you try, it’s useless.”
Finally, Charlie spoke, “Mom, I’ll like to be alone.” ..
“You have been alone for many days. Isn’t it enough?” Mrs. Larson sighed, “Charlie, it’s not like you. You used to do
whatever you want. You don’t care what other people said. Why are you so weak now?”
Charlie smiled bitterly, “Yea, I used to do anything that I want in the past. But I don’t even have the ability to stand
up and walk now. What else can I do?”
“You lost the ability to walk, that’s all. You are not destroyed.” Mrs. Larson said, “With your standard, there are tons
of women waiting to be your wife even if breathing is the only thing you can do. So, have more confidence. Don’t
deny yourself just because of Meredith.”
“Why do I want those women?” Charlie asked in return. “Mom, would you want those women if you are me?”
Mrs. Larson was speechless. She had tried to encourage Charlie too many times but it was not as good as the
words from Meredith. As Charlie’s mother, she felt very helpless. Thus, she changed the topic, Charlie, why don’t
we spend the New Year back in Delmas Town?”
“No,” Charlied answered.
“Why? It’s much more lively back in Delmas Town,” Mrs. Larson did not understand.
“I don’t need it.” He only wanted to be alone. He did not want anyone to disturb his quiet.
Mrs. Larson sighed helplessly, “Fine then.”

Delmas Town to celebrate the New Year. She finally could not help and ask, “When are you planning to go back to
Delmas Town?”
Josiah poured her a glass of milk and said casually, “I don’t plan to go back.”
“Not going back?” Meredith was surprised. “Don’t you have to go back to celebrate it together with Old Sir Shelby
and Old Madam Shelby? Are you going to celebrate without them?”
Josiah smiled. “You know what they are like. They rather celebrate it by themselves without anyone disturbing
them.”
Meredith talked back, “All elders hope to celebrate the festive holidays with their families. They only said it so you
won’t worry about them.”
