Miracle Cutie Chapter 137: Nina Blocks Grandpa's Trip

Daniel stared at Benjamin with a wounded, dramatic look.

"I've been completely destroyed by Nina. You're her dad, so you need to compensate me."

Benjamin looked at him, his expression blank as he replied, "Serves you right."

Expecting a two-year-old like Nina to help him win someone over... what did he expect?

After throwing out those two words, Benjamin ignored his brainless brother and walked away.

Nina had her arms looped around Benjamin's neck. Watching Daniel cling to Benjamin's leg, she thought it was hilarious.

She giggled and twisted her chubby little body, trying to slide down so she could also hug Benjamin's leg.

Benjamin didn't let her down.

Held securely in Benjamin's steady arms, Nina was delivered straight to the bathroom.

Amelia's neck was injured, so she couldn't carry Nina comfortably these days.

Seeing Benjamin bring Nina over, Amelia immediately shut the bathroom door to keep Nina from running out.

Amelia said gently, "Nina, look, your little friends are already waiting for you.

"Do you want to go play with them?"

Inside Nina's pink bathtub, several floating bath toys were neatly arranged.

A squeaky duck, and a few little cars.

Seeing her toy friends waiting for her, Nina finally lifted her arms like a well-behaved child so Amelia could take her clothes off.

The Graham family had hired a nanny to handle Nina's baths, clothes, and bedtime routine, but Nina had never let anyone else do it. She had been used to Amelia since she was tiny and refused anyone else.

Once Nina finished her bath, Benjamin was still in the room.

"Daddy, hug."

Wearing only a diaper, Nina stretched out her plump arms toward him.

Benjamin picked her up. Nina pointed outside and said, "Go out. Nina go out."

Amelia stopped them. "Wait."

She pulled out a tiny pink floral camisole dress and slipped it onto Nina. Only then did she let Benjamin take Nina out to play.

She said, "I'm going to shower. Benjamin, watch her for a bit."

Benjamin nodded. "Okay."

For the past two days, every time Amelia showered, Benjamin handled Nina.

Amelia could finally take proper showers again.

Before, she always showered really fast or left the door open so she could keep an eye on Nina from inside.

With Benjamin around, Amelia's life had become much easier.

As Amelia searched for the pajamas she would wear after her shower, Benjamin carried Nina out of the room.

"Grandpa! Want Grandpa," Nina said.

Under Nina's order, Benjamin headed to William's room.

Just as he reached the doorway, he saw William wearing an overcoat, clearly preparing to go out.

Nina was sharp. She could always tell when an adult was about to leave.

Seeing William all dressed, even wearing his watch, Nina instantly leaned forward, sticking out her pudgy body.

"Grandpa, hold me. Hold me!"

Her little hands stretched toward him, and William reflexively scooped her into his arms.

"Oh my precious girl. You finished your bath," he smiled.

"Yes!" Nina declared proudly.

Her chubby arms squeezed William tightly, clearly unwilling to let go.

William sighed with a mix of sweetness and helplessness, "Nina, I'm going out."

He had left Ryan hanging for two days.

Nina didn't like Ryan, but Ryan was still his younger brother. Since William hadn't yet confirmed whether Ryan was hiding something, he wanted to meet him and talk.

"Take Nina!"

The moment she heard he was going out, Nina wouldn't let go at all.

"Grandpa, Nina go out!"

William tried coaxing, "Not tonight, Nina. It's too late."

But coaxing Nina was useless. Before he had said much, Nina's mouth started trembling, and she was about to cry.

In the end, William had no choice. He took off his coat and stayed home.

He said, "Alright. I'll stay home. We'll both stay here."

Both of them remained at home.

At the hotel, Ryan was speaking to the two men beside him, "Just wait a little longer. My brother will be here soon.

"When he arrives, pitch your charity project to him. He has money."

The two men didn't need the reminder. They knew William had money.

One of them said, "Fine, we'll wait. If William is willing to listen and join our organization, then your son's matter ends here. We'll spare his life.

"If William refuses, Ryan, we'll chop him into pieces."

Ryan immediately panicked. "No! My brother has money. Even if he won't join your organization, I can ask him for money. I'll get a lot of money, I promise!"
