eredith‘s Cheek.” Mommy, thank you too.”

“Good girl. Shall we go out to the sea to celebrate you winning first prize?” Josiah asked.

“Oh, yes!” Nia cheered and looked at Meredith, “Mommy, can you go?”

Although Meredith was not feeling comfortable, she did not want to ruin Nia‘s mood, so she nodded and agreed,

“Yes, sure.” “But...” She looked at Josiah, “I‘m not the one who is scared of water. You should ask your Daddy if he is

okay with it.”

“What? Daddy is afraid of the water?” Nia asked surprisingly.

Josiah knew Meredith was talking about the time he nearly drowned when he was a kid. He smiled. “A little. But I‘m

not scared because your Mommy is here.” “Why aren‘t you scared when Mommy is here?” Nia asked. “Because

Mommy will protect Daddy,” Josiah replied. “Huh? That‘s so weird.” Nia was shocked. “Shouldn‘t Daddy be the one

who protects Mommy?”

Josiah carried Nia and headed out of the venue. He smiled. “It‘s getting late. Let me tell you on the way. Hmm...

That‘s because I accidentally fell into the water when I was a kid. And your Mommy was the one who saved me. If it

wasn‘t for your Mommy, I will be long gone and we would have such a talented daughter.” Nia giggled, “Really? I

don‘t believe it.” “Why don‘t you believe it? Or do you think I‘m too useless?” Josiah asked.

“Yes, Daddy is so useless!” Nia nodded her head vehemently.

“But I‘m not scared anymore.” Josiah tried to change Nia‘s mind.

“Because you have grown up?” Nia asked.

“Nia, eat up. It‘s not nice anymore when it‘s cold.” Meredith touched Nia‘s head. Nia nodded. “Daddy and Mommy

hurry up and eat too.”

Meredith looked at Josiah and coincidentally, their eyes met each other. She quickly lowered her head to finish the

steak.

Josiah put a piece of shrimp ball onto her plate. “Edith, try this shrimp ball.”

“Thank you.” Meredith did not reject it and put it into her mouth. She saw Josiah was still looking at her and had to

make a comment. “Not bad.”

“Have one too, Nia.” Josiah also gave one to Nia. Nia looked at the shrimp ball and pretended to be suspicious.

“Daddy, are you afraid that it smells so you want me and Mommy to try it first?”

“Do you think I‘m that kind of person?” Josiah asked with a smile.

“No, I don‘t think so.” Nia ate the shrimp ball to show that she trusted Josiah.

“Wow, it‘s really very good,” Nia exclaimed. “Mommy, pass one to Daddy.”

The shrimp ball was nearer to Meredith so Nia did not mean anything when she said that. However, it put Meredith

in a difficult position. She had not been interacting closely with Josiah for a long time, not to mention taking the

initiative to do it herself. Especially the small gestures like placing food on the plate during meal time. To Meredith, it

was something only a couple would do.
