Chapter 940
After breakfast, the trio went out together. It was the first time Josiah went to the farmers’ market. He was not
interested in the flowers and decorations nor was he interested in places that weres bustling with noises. However,
he still appreciated the time spent together with Meredith and Nia.
Even when he was being treated as a porter and being pushed here and there by the crowd, he endured it in a
good manner. Other than the flowers Nia like, Meredith also chose a few stalks of sunflowers
Josiah looked at the sunflowers in Meredith’s arms and remembered the situation when Meredith and Charlie visited
him in the hospital. Their house had planted plenty of sunflowers and Meredith was never a fan of sunflowers
before. Did she buy it because of Charlie?
“Edith, it’s not the season for sunflowers yet. It’s not the right time to plant them,” Josiah could not help but remind
her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeredith said, “It’s alright. I just put them in the water. It’s enough to last them a week.”
She did not buy the sunflower because of anyone. She only felt it looks nice to have them during the New Year.
“Don’t you think this flower looks better? It smells nice too,” Josiah suggested.
“Daffodils are too common and the smell is too heavy that it can cause dizziness.” Meredith passed the sunflowers
to the seller for check out and wrapping.
Josiah could only take the paid sunflowers from the seller and continued shopping.
“Mommy, look!” Nia pointed at an old granny who was selling handmade cards not far ahead of them.” That granny
looks like she is freezing. Can we help her?”
Meredith looked in the direction Nia was pointing. It was a very cold day. The old lady was wearing a thick coat but
she was still shivering due to the cold. No one was interested in her handmade cards because the design was too
old school.
“I didn’t know Nia is such a good-hearted girl,” Josiah said, “Meredith, you did such a great job raising and teaching
her.”
“You played an important part too.” Meredith glanced at him indifferently. “When Nia was staying in the hospital,
the rest of the patients treated her nicely so eventually it helped her to become a person who cares for other
people.”
Josiah knew Meredith said it on purpose. He grabbed Nia and said apologetically, “Sorry, it’s Daddy’s fault.
“What?” Nia did not hear clearly what her parents were talking about just now. She was stunned with her daddy
apologizing to her all of a sudden.
“Nothing.” Josiah did not wish to bring up those unhappy moments. He held Nia’s hand and walked toward the old
lady. “Come on, let’s buy some handmade cards.”
Nia responded and walked together with her Daddy. Josiah did not haggle the price with the old lady and bought all
of the handmade cards. The old lady thought she heard it wrongly and responded immediately
Meredith thought she heard it wrongly too. Then she reminded him, “If you want to help her, you can just give her

“Don’t worry. I can give it to my employees,” Josiah said without giving too much thought. He paid the old lady and
called the driver to come to pick the cards up.
The old lady finally realized she was not dreaming when she received the money. She appreciated Josiah’s good
gesture gratefully, “Thank you. You are a nice man. I hope your family and you live happily ever after.”
Josiah felt it was worth it getting such a good blessing from the old lady. As they saw the old lady off, Meredith asked
in query, “When are you such a kind and charitable person? I never know that in the past.”
“Not in the past?” Josiah looked at her from the corner of his eyes. “Shelby Group has been involved in many
different charities for the past few years, I think.”
“Most organizations do charities for advertising and branding purposes,” Meredith said.
“As expected from a daughter being raised in an entrepreneur family. You surely understand it very well.” Josiah
looked at her with a smile on his face. Meredith looked back at him and said nothing else.
