Chapter 764
With heavy steps, Josiah went into Nia’s bedroom.
The bedroom was painted pink and the room was pretty as usual.
But without its owner, the room seemed cold and empty.
Closing his eyes, Josiah recalled how Nia would want him to help tie her hair in braids and how Nia would join hands
with him to win Meredith over.
But no matter how Nia had helped him out, Josiah still failed to keep the family together. He had no idea how Nia
was doing or if she had recovered from her illness. 1 Josiah recalled that Nia had forgotten about him in the last few
days before she was gone and he wondered if Nia had finally remembered him.

“Sir, dinner is ready. Would you like to eat now?” Standing at the door, Lily asked as she noticed how Josiah looked
lonely from the back.
Josiah shook his head. He did not have any appetite.
Instead, he said, “It will be Nia’s birthday in two days’ time. I wonder how she’s doing and if she’d be able to enjoy
her birthday…”
Lily, of course, had no idea how Nia was doing too.
But she had to try to comfort Josiah. “Sir, don’t worry. Mister Charlie looks reliable and I’m sure he’d do a great job
in taking care of Ma’am and Nia.”
Josiah shot her a cold glare. Lily immediately corrected herself. “I meant to say that Nia must be doing fine and she
would enjoy her birthday.” But even then, Josiah still felt his chest tighten. Not only did Charlie take away his wife,
but he also took away his daughter.
And Josiah did not even get to see them for the last time.
Inwardly, Josiah seethed, ‘Charlie Larson! I should never have taken mercy on you!’
Josiah could not sleep until the next morning.
Ever since the disappearance of Meredith and Nia, Josiah had rarely shown up at the office. Mister Wesley and
Mister Yoseph were put in charge of managing the office.
Wesley sighed in relief when Josiah finally showed up at the office.
After ending a long meeting with the higher-ups, Wesley then reported back to Josiah on some of their recent
ongoing projects. “Sir, there is a perfume that is gaining a lot of attention on the market these days. I believe it’s
called Sweet Reminiscence. The company even took away half of our distributors.”

Josiah was in the middle of going through some documents. “It’s a new company? What’s with the tacky name?
Look into the company and who’s behind it. Also, tell them to return what’s ours if they don’t want to be kicked out
of Jehovah City.”
Wesley cleared his throat awkwardly and replied, “Um… Sir, I’ve told them about this but I’m afraid that they are
not backing down.” “What did you say?”
“Um, I think our opponents this time around are rather fearless.”
“So,” Josiah looked at Wesley and asked, “who’s behind the company?” “I’ve looked into it but nothing came up.”
“Useless piece of sh*t!”
Feeling guilty, Wesley lowered his head and said, “Oh, Sweet Reminiscence will be having a product launch today.
Would you like to attend?”
“Do I look like I have a lot of free time?” “I understand, Sir.”
