Chapter 1141
"It's not the same." Suddenly, Nia became very anxious. "Mommy. Daddy will marry that aunty as his wife. Then
Daddy can't be together with Mommy and we can't stay together as a family every day."
Her eyes started rolling down her face. "Mommy. It was just yesterday, Daddy said he wants to marry you again.
Then all three of us will live together forever. Daddy is a liar!"
"Nia, it's not like that..." Meredith pulled Nia into her arms and touched Nia's head. "Daddy did not lie to Nia and he
won't lie to you. Before this, he also didn't know he has a son."
Meredith had been determined to protect Josiah's good father image in Nia's mind over the years.
"So now he knows he has a son. Does that mean he doesn't have to keep his promise anymore?" Nia asked while

Meredith was startled by that question, she wiped away the tears on Nia's face while feeling sad. "Do you really
want three of US living together so badly?"
Nia nodded her head vehemently. "Yes. Like Daddy, I have been looking forward for Mommy to return and reunite
with US. I don't want to lose you or Daddy anymore."
Sadness crept into Meredith's heart, she embraced Nia in her arms once again. Then she nodded. "Don't worry,
Mommy won't let you down."
"Really?" Nia wiped off the tears with the back of her hand. She asked anxiously, "Mommy, so you are going to be
Daddy's wife again? And Nia doesn't need to leave you or Daddy anymore?"
"Yes, Daddy and I will do our best to make it happen."
"That's great!" Nia cheered, "I believe the both of you."
After a while, Meredith finally saw a smile on Nia's face but her heart was getting more and more unsettled. Ivy was
determined to get her hands on Josiah this time, with the support Ivy had from Cooper and Mrs. Shelby, Meredith
was not confident enough to keep Josiah by her side and fulfill Nia's dream. However, she could not bear to tell Nia
the truth once she saw how thrilled Nia was.
After Nia submerged herself in the happiness moment, she suddenly remembered something, and the smile on her
disappeared, she asked Meredith, "But if we could be a whole family again, what about Cooper? Will he be sad like
me?"
Meredith was lost in words. Both of them remained silent when they thought of that poor kid. Meredith did not know
what to do either.
"It'll be nice if Cooper is Mommy's son," Nia sighed, "too bad he is not!"
Meredith forced a smile on her face, "Nia, don't be like me. You don't have to be so kind."

"Why?"
"Because it's too tiring and you will lose a lot of happiness."
"Really?" Nia still did not understand. "Why?"
Meredith thought for a while and explained, "For example, if you pity Cooper and decide to give him Daddy, then
you can't live together with Daddy and Mommy anymore. Are you willing to do that?"
Meredith felt a sense of melancholy when she looked at Nia's stubborn little look. Her daughter had taken after her
kindness. Sometimes, she wished to be more selfish and ruthless. Then she would not have to consider Cooper. It
would not concern her if Cooper would be sad without companionship and love from his Daddy and if his autism
could be treated.
Most importantly, she knew Nia was thinking the same thing in her mind.
