Still Loving You Nonetheless By Snow De Eira Chapter 1138Chapter 1138
Josiah was stunned. He did not expect that from Meredith.
“Edith, you are not blaming me?”
“No.”
“But are you going to distance yourself from me and hate me because of Ivy and Cooper?” Josiah
asked.
This time, Meredith did not answer. Josiah started to get tense again because of Meredith’s silence
when he was first relieved knowing Meredith would not blame him.
“Edith, why are you always like this? I know you care a lot about it but you always insisted you don’t
care,” Josiah said.
” I think you have a misunderstanding. How could I not care that my husband had an illegitimate child
with another woman? I do care but I don’t blame either of you.”
It was a contradicting statement and also a terrifying one. what she meant was she did not blame him
but neither would she return back to him anymore.
Josiah inhaled deeply to suppress the anxiousness in his heart. He said slowly, “Edith. I did grow up
together with Ivy. But I never had that kind of feelings for her. In fact, in my mind, she was never a
cunning person. She was talented and independent since she was a kid. And she had never portrayed
that kind of feelings to me. On the contrary, she treated Liam even better than how she treated me.
Every time she had something good, she would first think of him instead of me.”Meredith said, “Haven’t you heard people say? The easier way to win your crush’s heart is to get close
to the crush’s best buddy. I also used the same tactics and got close to Liam because of you too. It
Josiah looked at Meredith’s calm face and smiled bitterly, “But I did not appreciate it back then. Or else,
nothing would happen between Ivy and me.”
Then Meredith remembered the boy. she asked sadly, “His age is about the same as Nia. When was
he born?”
“I didn’t notice which month it is but…” Josiah hesitated to tell the truth because he was afraid it would
hurt Meredith’s feelings.
Only when he noticed that there were no sudden changes in Meredith’s expression, did he continue
talking, “Ivy came back on the day we got married. On that night, Liam, Ivy, and I went to have a drink
at the bar. Ivy kept making me drink. So we all ended up drunk. When I woke up, Ivy was in my
room…”
He shook his head, “I think it’s outrageous and unbelievable too. It was just that one time and that’s the
night we had Cooper.”
“So it was on the night we got married.” This time, Meredith’s expression changed. She looked bitter, “I
was all alone on the night I got married. And my husband went to have a kid with another woman. So
this was the time my disaster started…right after I got married to you.”
“Edith, at that time…”
“Josiah, I don’t want to listen anymore,” Meredith stopped him from explaining further.
It had already happened and Cooper was not a baby anymore. No matter how perfect Josiah’s
explanation was, it would not change a thing.Meredith tried to calm herself down before she asked, “So what’re you going to do?”
novelbin“I will admit Cooper is my son and raise him. But I won’t marry Ivy. ” He grabbed Meredith’s hands.
“Edith, I just want to make you my wife again. Give Nia a complete family. This has always been my
mission.”
“Give Nia a complete family. Then what about Miss Landers and Cooper? What about your mother?”
Meredith said, “Obviously, your mother wants you to marry Ivy. Are you really going to turn against your
mother because of Nia?”
“My mother has never cared about me for many years. Now she wants me to marry a person that I
don’t like. Do you think it’s that hard to turn against her in this situation?”
Suddenly, Meredith thought of a question. “Since Ivy liked you so much and dreaded marrying you, why
hasn’t she come to look for you when she was pregnant or after she gave birth? Why did it take her so
many years to come to look for you?”
“I asked her the same questions too. she said she only wanted to raise the kid alone and not disturb my
life. But Cooper started to get ill when he was born. He had always been petite and thin, when his body
finally got better, he was diagnosed with autism.”
