Still Loving You Nonetheless

Chapter 1456

When she stepped foot into Ivy's room, Meredith noticed that Ivy had already changed into her clothes.

She was wearing a sky blue knitted dress. And perhaps Ivy had lost some weight, hence the dress was

hanging loosely on her body. But Ivy still looked elegant.

"Miss Ivy, you...”

Ivy was standing in the middle of the room as she had her gaze fixed on Meredith and Cooper.

Ivy looked calm and composed as she moved toward the both of them.

"I thought that I would look too insincere if I wore too casually, so I wanted to at least dress up a little." Even

though Ivy looked like she was clearly holding back her tears, her eyes were turning red little by little.

Especially when she turned to look at Cooper, her eyes started welling up with tears.

"Don't say it like that, Miss Ivy. Cooper and I have never once blamed or resetted you." Meredith looked at Cooper and added, "Plus, Cooper has been wanting to visit you but I was worried that you'd get worked up if you see him. So I decided not to bring him."

Meredith then asked Cooper, "Right, Cooper?"

Cooper was looking at Ivy as something welled up in his eyes.

He then nodded heavily.

Holding back her tears. Ivy leaned over and put her hand on his shoulders and said, "Cooper, now you know why I've always pushed you away, don't you? Because everytime I look at you. I’d be reminded of the kid that I’ve lost and all the horrible things that I've done.”

"I have never hated you or wanted to hurt you, really," Sobbing, she went on, "Cooper, I wasn't the one who got you into the car accident and I've never wanted to force you to stay by my side. I simply wanted to wait until I've got my child back, and then return you to your Mommy and Daddy."

"Really, I'm not lying," Choking on her tears, Ivy sobbed," I'm...terribly sorry."

Seeing how Ivy was devastated, Cooper finally said," Mommy, I understand."’

"No, you don't," Ivy shook her head and went on, "I know that deep down, you've always thought that I'm a bad person, I've always been..." Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"No," Cooper shook his head and said, "you're really nice to me and I know it."

"Cooper..." This was the first time Ivy had heard him speaking a full sentence. With a look of surprise, she said, "Cooper, you're finally talking!"

"Cooper is getting better day by day. He can even hold a conversation now," Meredith added.

Ivy was surprised. "Is that so? It seems like staying next to his parents helped him recover quickly."

"Yes and I believe that Cooper is only going to get better from here onwards," Meredith went on, "so, don't be too hard on yourself, Miss Ivy."

Ivy pulled Cooper into a tight hug, ruffled his hair and said, "Cooper, you must take good care of yourself,

okay? и

Cooper nodded gently and patted Ivy’s shoulder. "You too."

"Mm." Ivy gave a small squeeze around Cooper before finally letting him go.

"Meredith, is Josiah in the next room?"

"Yes, he is. Would you like to see him?"

"Oh no. I was thinking of letting Cooper stay with him for a while."

"Ah, sure." Meredith then said to Cooper, "Cooper darling, your dad is in the next room, go find him there

alright?"

Cooper replied, "Okay, Mommy. I can go there on my own."

"Alright, darling. Go on then."
