Still Loving You Nonetheless By Snow De Eira Chapter 1165Chapter 1165
She looked bitterly at him and said, “Joe, even if my family business had gone bankrupt, I was able to
raise Cooper on my own. Do you really think that I’d give up on my conviction just for some money?”
“So what’s your conviction? To marry into the Shelby family?”
“I said that it is for my son, but you refused to believe me and think that I am lying, what else am I
supposed to do?” Ivy shook her head and went on, “No one knows better than me how it feels to not be
able to protect her own son as a mother.”
Her eyes slowly reddened.
Seeing the sudden change in her expression, Josiah scoffed, ” People who don’t know you might think
that you major in acting and film, not medicine.”
It was as if she did not understand his sarcasm, Ivy went on, “Joe, please marry me for the sake of
Cooper. I don’t care if you would love me or want me as long as you marry me. I don’t mind that we’re
just a fake couple. Please?”
“No. Even if it’s going to be fake, I will not marry you,” Josiah rejected her coldly.
Josiah knew of course that if he married Ivy, they would be bound together by the law. And it would be
hard to separate later.
He would not dig a grave for himself.
Ivy was utterly disappointed by his response. “Joe, do you really… hate me that much?”
“Yes.” Josiah nodded. “Especially after what happened today. It only made me despise you more.”II II
“Miss Ivy,” In a stern voice, Josiah went on, “about what I said earlier, you can take all the time you
need to think about what you want. And if you want to keep this up, be my guest. But let me remind you
one thing, I will never let you have your way. oh, and, if this happens again, I’m referring to how you
hurt Cooper, I will report you to the cops right away.”
Before giving Ivy any chance to respond, Josiah turned around and walked out of the room.
“Joe!” In desperation, Ivy ran up to him, grabbed his arms, and sobbed, “Joe, I really want to get
married to you. I have to marry you. Please let me be your wife, please!
“Joe, you know me, don’t you? I’ve never been the type to be begging other people, especially not with
men. But I really don’t have another choice, I want my son, I want my son to…”
“If you really do care about your son, you wouldn’t have done such a thing to him!” Josiah flung her
away across the floor.
“I…” Ivy was at loss for words.
With tears welling up in her eyes, Ivy looked devastated.
novelbin“You’re right that you used to have self-respect and dignity, but look at you now…what’s the difference
between you and those pretentious and materialistic women?!”
Ivy too found herself ridiculous, being in this situation.
But…what else was she supposed to do?
With Cooper hospitalized, not only was Meredith worried, but Nia too was worried.Nia had been asking tons of questions about how Cooper was doing. For example, if Cooper was
hurting or if Cooper had eaten.
Meredith of course, would not know but she was eager to know how Cooper was doing.
After dinner, Nia came to her and asked, “Mommy, can I go see Cooper?”
Meredith shook her head and replied, “Sweetheart, I know you miss your brother a lot, but I am not his
mother, so I don’t have the right to go visit him.”
“What about Daddy? Can’t Daddy bring me to see Cooper?”
