Chapter 1039 However, Meredith did not want to be seen as purposely distancing herself from Josiah. Thus, she still

put a shrimp ball onto Josiah‘s plate. Before she started to eat her food, Josiah said, “I want one more.” Meredith

paused what she was doing and gave him another one. “One more, please.” Meredith was lost in words. When she

gave him for the third time, she said, “If you eat more, then there is no more for Nia and me.” “It‘s fine. We can

order another plate.” Josiah looked at the shrimp ball on his plate and ate it satisfyingly.

It had been a long time since Meredith gave him food, so he wanted to take the time to enjoy it.

Nia cooperated nicely with Josiah. “Mommy, you can give more to Daddy. One is enough for me.”

“Hurry up and finish your food.” Meredith urged, “Do you still want to go out to the sea?”

“Yes.” Nia quickly ate her food when she heard Meredith ask. When they finished lunch, they took the car that was

arranged to arrive at the pier where they board a luxury medium–sized ship.

“Do we need such a big ship?” Meredith did not understand. Normally people would prefer the yacht for more

excitement. She gave it a thought and said sarcastically, “Are you afraid?”

Josiah raised his hand and rubbed the back of Meredith‘s head. “Why? Are you suspecting me as Nia did? I told you,

I‘m not afraid of the water now. Do I need to prove it to you by swimming in the sea?”

“Sure, why not? I want to see you swim,” Meredith said.

Josiah was lost in words. He did not expect Meredith to be so blunt. It was not that he minded swimming in the sea

but it would be a waste of time for him to change his clothing after swimming. Hence, he could only say, “Never

mind. I‘ll swim when we come back.”

Meredith responded and boarded the ship with Nia. Josiah followed behind them. He explained, “It‘s quite boring if

we just go out to look at the sea. We could do some fishing and also have dinner on the ship. Isn‘t that more

exciting?”

Before Meredith could say anything, Nia exclaimed cheerfully, “Oh really? We could try fishing from the boat? And

have dinner?” “Of course, you can also sleep in the boat,” Josiah said. “Wow! I like it!” Nia was really excited. She

skipped to her parents. “I have never tried fishing before. Does that mean I can catch goldfish and keep it as my

pet?” “There‘s no goldfish in the sea. But there are other fishes,” Josiah explained.” And also crabs, shellfish,

starfish, and the rest.” “Really? Really? That‘s terrific!” Nia got even more excited. Meredith smiled uncontrollably

when she saw how exciting Nia was. Josiah tilted his head and looked at her with a faith smile. “Do you know why I

arranged for a bigger ship now?”

Meredith had to admit it, Josiah knew how to please and make Nia happy. All kids

loved to play with water and catch fish and so did Nia. When the ship set sail, the captain even sailed closer to the

lighthouse Nia kept thinking of last night so Nia could take a good look at it from a close distance. “There‘s nothing

special about it.” Nia looked at the lighthouse while standing behind the guardrail on the deck.



Josiah was there looking at the lighthouse with Nia. He nodded, “yes, you‘re right. There‘s nothing special. But its

role and meaning are very important.” “I know. You told me it helps to guide people,” Nia said.

“Yes, that‘s why you shouldn’t underestimate it,” Josiah replied.

Nia nodded, “I understand, Daddy.” “Nia is a smart girl.” Josiah touched Nia‘s little head while feeling pleased.
