Chapter 1122
In the end, it was Josiah who stopped her and said, "Edith, you don't have to say anything else anymore. I believe
Charlie would understand you."
Upon saying that, he looked at Charlie's tomb that was in front of him and said, "Charlie, don't worry. I certainly
won't fail Edith. I will love her and Nia properly.
"Please believe you. Also, thank you for willingly letting me have Edith." He bowed seriously to Charlie.
When they left the cemetery, Meredith was still silent the entire journey.
Josiah looked at her and suggested, "Edith, I'll go somewhere with you this weekend to take your mind off things,
alright?"
"No need."
"We'll bring Nia along."
"I want to go away for a period."

Josiah immediately asked when he heard that, "what did you say? Where do you want to go?"
He slammed on the brakes and stopped the car at the side of the road. His eyes were filled with anxiousness when
he looked at her.
"I want to spend some quiet time alone."
"Edith, you've already moved to the apartment. How else do you want to spend some quiet time alone?" Josiah
grabbed her shoulders and made her face him.
"Didn't you already receive Charlie's mail? Didn't you promise Charlie just now that you will fulfill his wish and live a
good life together with Nia and me? why did you suddenly want to leave again?"
Meredith looked at the anxious man in front of her. Was he so afraid that she would leave?
Without realizing it, she asked, "Josiah, I'm suddenly a little curious. When I left Jehovah City with Charlie back then,
were you so anxious as well? Have you once regretted it as well?"
"Of course!" Josiah said loudly, "Not only was I desperately anxious and extremely regretful, but I was desperately
searching for you all over the world. It was such a pity that I couldn't find you no matter what.
"You've finally returned. I absolutely won't allow you to leave again," Josiah said, "Besides, I believe Charlie also

doesn't hope that I will let you go."
"I just want to spend a good quiet time by myself and also deal with the work for the branch office."
"You..." Josiah felt slightly relieved. "So you're not going to completely disappear? You're still going to come back?"
"Mhm."
"How long do you need?" he asked again anxiously, "No matter how long of a quiet time you need, I can let you
have it and I can also wait for you, as long as you're able to tell me when you'll be returning."
Meredith also did not know how long she wanted to spend some time in silence, so she simply said a deadline,
"Maybe three months. Maybe half a year. I '11 return when I want to return."
"Must it be that long?" Josiah said with a slight tinge of misery in his tone, "I feel that one month is already a very
long time. Nia and I would've missed you uncontrollably already."
"For Nia, please help me talk to her properly." Meredith paused for a moment. "Also, г 11 have to trouble you to
take care of her during this period."

"You don't have to worry about Nia at all. It's just that...," Josiah begged humbly, "Can you shorten the time a little?
Just a little."
Meredith was speechless as she looked at him. "Josiah, I told you that I'm only going to go out and take my mind off
things, as well as handle the matters for the branch office. I'm not going to disappear."
"But the places that you want to go are filled with memories of you and Charlie. Are you sure you're going to take
your mind off things instead of making yourself feel even worse?"
Meredith was speechless.
Josiah compromised, inhaled softly, and said, "Alright. I'll respect your decision. However, you have to promise me
that after you return in three months or half a year, we'll get married. Our family of three will then be together and
not have any conflicts anymore."
Meredith was still speechless. She never expected that he would bring up such a request, so she was stunned.
"No, I can't promise you."
"Why?"
"Because..." Meredith stared at him. "Because I still don't want to be married to you again right now. As for whether
I would want to after I've returned in three months or half a year, I have no idea as well."
What else could Josiah do? He could only continue to give in.
