Chapter 386


    “I did not lie to you.” Josiah looked at the time. “It’s only four. There is still time.”


    “We’re running out of time!” Meredith reached her hand out to pull him up, yet she was pulled into bed


    by him. Then, he got on top of her.


    “My hat!” Meredith hit his arm. “My hat has been ttened by you!” “We’ll just get a new one.” Josiah


    just got up. He was still a little groggy. His voice was seductively hoarse too. He held her down for a


    while to warm her up before letting her go. Meredith immediately got up from him. She smoothed her


    ttened hat while she huffed,” You’re terrible. I spent so much time tying the bow, yet you ruined it.”


    Josiah got up and took the hat over. “Let me have a look.”


    The bow on the hat was indeed a little crooked. Josiah untied it. He thought it was just a bow, it was


    something everyone knew how to tie. However, after fiddling with it for a long time, he realized that he


    did not know how to tie one.


    Seeing Meredith looking at his hand, Josiah coughed dryly. He had to brace himself and continued


    trying to tie it while saying, “Maybe the ribbon is too slippery. I can’t tie it.”


    “I don’t care. I did it just now.”


    “Then, wait for a while. I’ll look for a tutorial.” Josiah took the tablet to his table. He searched for a way


    to tie a bow. Then, he followed it step by step.


    After repeating it for the 20th time, Meredith was finally satisfied with it.


    “Are you sure?” Josiah looked at her pout and smiled dotingly. “If you’re unsure about it, I can do it


    again.”


    “Forget about it. It’s getting dark soon. Let it be.” Meredith put the hat on with slight reluctance.


    “Hold up.” Josiah pulled her back and adjusted the bow before saying, “Alright. It looks good.” They


    seemed to have forgotten that they were going to the beach to collect seashells. No matter how pretty


    he did it, the beach breeze would still mess it up. Sure enough. The moment they stepped out of the


    mansion the bow was untied by the wind. “See! I told you! Your tying is terrible!” Meredith looked at the


    swaying untied ribbon by the side of her face and grumbled. “Maybe I didn’t tie it tight enough.” Josiah


    patiently stood in front of her and tied it for her again.


    This time, he tied the bow tightly. It would finally note undone. Of course, the shape was far from


    eptable.


    To shift her attention, Josiah pointed at the beach nearby. “Look, many kids are collecting shells. If you


    still don’t go, they are going to collect them all.”


    Sure enough, Meredith did not care about the bow anymore. She ran over to the beach barefooted.


    A few parents brought their children to the beach to y. The parents were sitting on a rock chatting


    while the children were ying on their own. Meredith, who always liked children, soon mixed in with


    them. She yed with them, having


    great fun.


    Josiah, on the other hand, was left behind. Seeing Meredith ying with children so closely, he was


    actually jealous. The domineering chauvinism rose in him. He hoped that she belonged to him and only


    him. He hoped that she would only rely on him for the rest of her life. Even a group of random children


    could not take her away from him. However, seeing how happy she was, he could not bear to disturb


    her, so he could only stand by the side, watching her.


    “Hello!” The parents of the children suddenly greeted him. Josiah never liked to deal with strangers.


    However, his wife was ying with their children, so he reluctantly responded to them in return. “Is that


    girl your girlfriend?” The parents asked curiously.


    “She is my wife.” “Oh, she is pretty.”Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.
