Chapter 591 Coming out from Nia’s ward, Meredith silently followed Josiah back to Shelby Mansion. Josiah first
arranged for the servants to prepare Meredith’s clothes and daily necessities. He entered the bedroom and saw
Meredith sitting on the floor eating the cake while crying at the same time.

The cake was brought back from the hospital. It was Nia’s birthday cake. Next to the cake was a bouquet of
exquisite roses. Meredith’s cream-covered face juxtaposed with the pink flowers. She looked extremely
heartbroken.

Josiah sighed helplessly. He walked over and said, “Stop crying already. If you’re going to be like that, I might not
bring you here again the next time.” Meredith wiped away her tears with the back of her hand. She said stubbornly,
“Why? Is it wrong for me to eat the cake on Nia’s behalf?”
“It’s not wrong.” Josiah looked at her, already eating almost half of the huge cake. “But if you’re going to continue
eating, I’m afraid you might stuff yourself to death. Then, Nia will no longer have her mommy.”

Meredith stopped eating for a while. She looked up at him with teary eyes. Then, she scooped a huge slice of cake
and passed it to him.
“You have some too. You have never had Nia’s birthday cake.” Josiah did not like eating cake, but he still accepted it
and started eating. Meredith was right. As Nia’s father, this was the first time he had eaten her birthday cake. He
was feeling rather guilty thinking about it.
“How did you know that Nia likes strawberry cake?” Meredith looked at the strawberries on the cake and asked
Josiah.
Josiah said, “I heard that most little children like strawberries a lot. I guessed that Nia would like it too. Later, I asked
Nia’s previous nurses and sure enough, she likes strawberries, so I ordered the cake.”
Meredith smiled bitterly. “You sure are caring.”
“Are you going to say that it’s a pity it’s too late?”
“Yes. When Nia needed her father most, you were not by her side. Now that she can’t eat cake anymore. What use
is there in you being caring?”

Josiah took another mouthful of cake before saying, “Meredith, I have apologized more than enough. It’s getting
pointless already, but I still want to correct you. It’s not too late, because Nia will come around.”
Nia was going to come around. This was her wish! However, wishes remained as wishes. No one would be able to
predict what was going to happen, not even Doctor Joshua!
Josiah placed the plate on the table and said to Meredith, “Don’t overthink. Go take a shower.” Meredith suddenly
grabbed his wrist. She choked up and said, “Josiah, I want to stay in Feldenberg to care for Nia. Can I?”:
“No.” “Why not?” Meredith was a little anxious. “Why not? Could you bear to leave Nia here alone? Won’t you feel
for her?”
Then, Meredith chuckled, “It’s true too. You have previously sent her abroad alone and you don’t even let me, her
mother, see her. How could you feel for her?”
