CHAPTER 816
Chapter 816 Josiah was speechless
He just did not want to let her go back to another man, not at all.
However, he could not find a suitable reason to keep her by his side.
In the end, he nodded, “Meredith, go if you want.”
Meredith turned around and left.
She could not give him hope because of a moment of soft-heartedness. She did not want to hurt Charlie.
When it broke, it remains broken. This is what she had always thought.
When Meredith returned home, Wilma, the servant, just came out of Charlie’s room. The food she was holding in her hand had not even been touched.
Before she could ask, Wilma took the initiative to say, “Ma’am, Mister Charlie refuses to eat.”
“Let me do it.” Meredith took the long plate in her hand and walked toward Charlie’s bedroom
Charlie was watching something on his phone. Meredith glanced at the screen inadvertently and found that the content on it was the parent-child activities of Nia’s school.
Her heart twitched slightly, and she pretended to be okay and said, “Charlie, didn’t you say you want to get better soon? Why don’t you eat?” Charlie said without raising his head, “Have you had a good time with the parent-child activity?”
“…” So he was upset about this. “It’s okay, it’s similar to the parent-child activities we participated in before,” she said. “I see that Meredith and Nia are having a good time.” He showed Meredith his
phone.
The screen showed a picture of a family of three playing the piano on the stage, which was heartwarming and harmonious. Meredith glanced at it and explained, “Because other families are basically a family of three, Nia also wants to be accompanied by her Daddy, so…Josiah went.”
“Meredith, it’s just a parent-child activity, don’t think about it too much.” Meredith put down the phone in his hand. “I originally hoped you could join me, but it’s not good if you forced yourself to go.”
“I know, it’s my fault, I’m useless.” Charlie’s hands on his lap clenched into fists little by little.
He knew it was his fault, and he was extremely upset.
He was upset that he was a cripple. Otherwise, he could participate in Nia’s parent-child activities with Meredith, and he could be a good stepfather and love Nia together with Meredith.
“Ah, why are you talking about yourself like this again?” Meredith grabbed his palm and comforted him. “Charlie, please get well soon, and when you get well, you can accompany me
to parent-child activities.”
Charlie’s originally low expression changed slightly, he raised his hand and shook her away.” You know what you mean when you say such a thing when my leg is completely useless!” His strength was so great that Meredith was thrown back by him, and her arm hit the corner of the coffee table. “Ah!” She cried out in pain.
She felt like her hand was about to break.
Charlie was taken aback and hurriedly reached out to help her. “Meredith, are you all right? I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to push you.”
Meredith forcibly shook her head. “I… It’s okay, I’m fine.”
“Meredith, let me see where you are hurt.” Charlie moved his wheelchair closer to her, lifted her up from the ground, and prepared to check her injuries. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Meredith could feel that she her injury was quite serious. In order to avoid him blaming himself, she refused, “Charlie, I’m really fine, really.” She grabbed his palm and forced a smile. “Can we eat? I haven’t eaten yet.” When Charlie heard that she had not eaten yet, he nodded. “Okay, I’ll eat. Let’s eat together.” “Yeah.” Meredith endured the pain and held up the plate and spoon for him. “You eat first, I’ll go to the dining hall to eat.”
