Chapter 770 “But Edith, I am Nia’s dad, we…”
“Oh, speaking of Nia,” Meredith cut him off and said, “there’s something that I need to tell you. When you decided
to spend your days and your nights staying by Yena’s side, Nia had already forgotten about you. Charlie and I took
her overseas to get her treated and Nia could only remember the memories she had before flying overseas and
until this day.”
Nia had completely forgotten about him…
At the mention of this, Josiah felt a tug in his chest.
Meredith went on, “But don’t worry, Mister Josiah. Aside from losing those unpleasant memories, Nia is doing well
and healthy now.”
Josiah felt his chest tighten even more. “Aren’t I supposed to be a pleasant memory to Nia?”

her dad but her dad never once came back to see her.” “Edith,” Feeling rushed, Josiah wanted to explain himself,
“Yena and …” “I don’t want to hear it,” Meredith cut him off right away, “Mister Josiah, let me say this one more
time. You and I are strangers now. There is no need for you to explain anything to me
and at the same time, I will not explain myself to you too.” “No, Edith. You clearly still care about me.” Meredith
scorned in contempt, “Oh really? And what have I done to make you think so?” “If it isn’t that, then why would the
first thing you do would be to get back at me when you returne?” Josiah composed himself and glanced at the
shattered bottle of wine on the floor.” For example, this bottle of wine and snatching away the distributors from
Shelby Group?” “You’re mistaken, Mister Josiah,” Meredith responded, “Reallo Distributor had always belonged to
the Leighton Group, not the Shelby Group. And I am simply taking back what was supposedly mine.”
“Edith, I’ve promised that as long as you ask for it, I will give the Leighton Group back to you.”
“Yes, I remember that.” Meredith nodded and said, “I will take it.”
Josiah clearly looked as if he did not expect Meredith to accept his offer, but still, he nodded.” Okay. I will give you
whatever it is that you want.”
“Aside from everything that belonged to the Leightons, I don’t want anything else.” Looking at Meredith, Josiah
could only smile bitterly. “Edith, you’ve really changed.”
“Why of course. I had to. If I didn’t, even I would start to hate myself,” Meredith went on,” Mister Josiah, I just want
to tell you that I have a new life for myself now and I hope that you’ll leave me alone. After all, you were the one
who left me waiting alone at the city hall for the entire day, and you were the one who broke your promise.”
“I’m sorry…”
“I don’t need your apologies, all I want is to start living my life!”
“With Charlie Larson?” Josiah asked, heartbroken.

Josiah actually saw them together in the same car, but even so, he wanted to hear Meredith deny it.
But Meredith nodded. “Yes.”
“Over the past two years, it was Charlie who took care of me and Nia. He is good to me, and he loves me and Nia
very much. And Nia likes him a lot too. I believe that after I get married to him, Nia and I will be able to live a happy
life.”
“But Nia is my daughter!”
Hearing that she was going to get married to Charlie, Josiah felt even more anxious and desperate. “Edith, you
cannot get married to Charlie.” “Why not? Or should I get married to you instead?” Josiah nodded and said, “I
swear on my life that I will take care and love you and Nia. I will give you both a happy life.” “Josiah Shelby, do you
think that I have got no pride at all?”
“I don’t mean it that way, I just want…want you to give me another chance.”
“That was the last straw, Mister Josiah. I have given you way too many chances,” Meredith got up onto her feet and
said, “I’ll get going now if there’s nothing else.”
