Chapter 179


    He only confirmed that thedy was indeed Meredith the moment he noticed the hands that were


    dancing around the piano keys were covered in scars. Squinting his eyes to take a careful look at the


    child next to her, Josiah realized that she was Nia.


    The mother and daughter’s hands were moving across the ck and white keys in harmony. They


    would even exchange nces with each other. It was a scene that warmed the hearts of many in the


    crowd. Hitting his arms excitedly, Josiah’s grandmother eximed, “Did you hear that? That song


    sounds absolutely lovely. The little angel sure is gifted.” Josiah replied, “Yeah.” “Sigh, if only had a


    great-granddaughter as talented as her.” She then started shaking Josiah’s arms. “Josiah, hurry up and


    give me a great-grandchild, hmm? Please, I’m begging you.” His grandmother’s words only made him


    feel even more suffocated.


    It was obvious that the child had inherited Meredith’s gift in music. It was a pity that the child…was not


    his.


    He was suddenly reminded of the paternity test results.


    “Grandma, let’s go now.” Josiah turned around, wanting to leave.


    Josiah’s grandmother immediately stopped him from leaving. “What’s wrong? Why are you leaving


    when it’s such a good performance?” “We’re not even rted to the kid. What’s there to see about it?”


    Josiah sounded annoyed. “Even if the child is not ours, she is indeed gifted. If you know nothing, then


    leave. I’ll stay and watch.”


    “Okay, I’ll really be leaving then.”


    “Leave and get as far as you can away from me.” Josiah’s grandmother waved her hands at Josiah


    without even looking at him.


    Josiah was not worried about his grandmother as she had the driver and other assistants that would


    keep an eye on her. However, right when he turned around and was about to leave, he heard his


    grandmother say, “Thatdy looks a lot like


    Meredith, doesn’t she? Josiah,e back here, quick. Don’t you think she looks like Meredith?”

    Josiah looked toward Meredith who was on stage. Her side profile was facing the crowd and only her


    eyes were visible. But those pretty eyes of hers were quite rare.


    It was no wonder his grandmother recognized her. Staring at Meredith, Josiah replied, “Grandma,


    Meredith’s been dead for almost four years now. How would thatdy be Meredith?” “You’re right,”


    Josiah’s grandmother nodded as a look of disappointment was written all over her face. “I really


    thought that she might be Meredith. How I hope that she is still alive, then the little angel would be my


    great-granddaughter!” “Grandma, are you going or not?” Josiah could not hold back himself and his


    tone sounded slightly annoyed. “What’s with that attitude of yours.” Josiah’s grandmother kicked Josiah


    in his shin and addeti, “How dare you give me an attitude when I didn’t even scold you for losing


    Meredith!”


    “Every time that I mention Meredith and you’d get unhappy. Let me tell you, Josiah Shelby, I am more


    upset than you are!” Josiah’s grandmother yelled furiously. Right then, Meredith and Nia’s performance


    came to an end. Both of them exchanged a look at each other and held their hands together before


    getting up from the chair. Josiah put his arms around his grandmother’s shoulders and quickly turned


    his grandmother to face him. Walking her out from the crowd, he softened his voice and begged for


    forgiveness. “I’m sorry Grandma, it’s my bad. Please don’t be mad anymore.”


    “I still want to continue watching the performance. Don’t push me!”


    “The performance had already ended. It’s time for us to go home now.” Josiah forcefully brought his


    grandmother to the mall’s entrance. After seeing her getting into the car, he then said to the driver,


    “Send grandma back home first. Drive safely.”
