Chapter 453
She gave him a light push and said, “Joe, I‘m going to get angry if you don‘t listen to me.”
Josiah found her adorable “I am curious how you‘d look when you get angry.”
Meredith pouted her lips and made an angry face at him. Josiah chuckled and nodded, “Too adorable”
Meredith found it strange that Josiah thought that she was cute when she was angry.
“Adorable.” Meredith got a little angry and asked, “So was this why you didn‘t take me seriously when I was angry at you for the past few days?”
“It‘s not that,” Josiah pinched her cheeks gently and explained, “I was in so much pain when you were mad at me the past few days. If not, I wouldn‘t even have thought of getting a food delivery of all your favorite food just to make you happy.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah,” He nodded and went on, “so can you promise me that you won‘t be angry at me anymore? It really hurts me and it‘s unbearable.”
“We‘ll have to see how you behave.” “Hmm? So what would you like me to do now?” “Go downstairs and finish your supper.” Meredith pointed at the door.
Josiah nodded obediently. “Alright, I‘ll head downstairs and finish my food. Go ahead and get some rest first,”
“That‘s my man.” Meredith was finally pleased.
The next morning.
“Is that so? Do you feel happier when you‘re with them than you‘re with me?”
“It‘s not the same.”
“How so?” “You‘re my husband, my family, of course, I‘d be happy when I‘m with you. But it‘s a different kind of happiness when I‘m working at the kindergarten.” “If so, why don‘t you stay home and feed me with good food once I get off from work?” Josiah tried to change her mind. Meredith responded, “Joe, I get off work earlier than you do and I can still make you dinner when you get home.”
Josiah could not think of another excuse.
He sighed helplessly, “It‘s fine. You shouldn‘t be in the kitchen doing chores during your pregnancy anyway. You can cook dinner for me once the baby is born.” “Ah, you‘re right.” Meredith nodded. “Then all the more reason that I should go to work.”
“Let me give you a lift.” Josiah had already given up on changing Meredith‘s mind. Meredith shook her head. “It‘s alright, Joe. We‘re going in different directions.“
