Miracle Cutie (Amelia and Benjamin) novel Chapter 336

Chapter 336 Pick Up Bottles

Jerry said, “You buy gift.”

Nina froze, her chubby little face going blank. “No money.”

Last time Daniel was short on cash, Nina tried to make money for him but didn’t have a clue how

Now she needed money again-and for Nina, who didnt get an allowance, that was a huge problem.

Just as Nina was stressing out about money, Dulce piped up quietly, “Nina, pick bottle. Sell them.”

Earlier this week, Dulce went out to play and saw an old lady collecting bottles.

Her parents told her that bottles and cardboard can be sold for money.

Dulce even helped her dad give some bottles to the old lady.

“Yeah! Sell bottle!”

The other kids had also seen people exchanging bottles for money.

When Nina heard that, something clicked for her.

“Mommy sell bottle!”

Other kids had seen people picking up cans and bottles on the street, or maybe their nanny sold bottles before.

But Nina had personally seen her mom do it.

Amelia saves up bottles and delivery boxes from home, then sells them.

The moment Nina figured out how to make money, her eyes lit up.

She asked Sally for a plastic bag and got ready to collect bottles.

The cleaners in the daycare did a great job keeping things clean.

Nina carried her bag around the daycare for a long time but couldn’t find a single bottle or piece of cardboard to sell.

When Nina failed to find any recyclables, she became very unhappy.

Jerry tried to cheer her up. “Nina, go out pick! Have many!”

Nina looked at the tightly closed door and felt even more upset.

“Can’t out!” she mumbled.

Whenever Nina was bored in class, she would go over and bang on the door.

The door wouldn’t open from the inside.

She still had to stay locked in there for a long time!

Jerry went over to the door with her, and the two little ces started banging and shaking it together.

Thankfully, before they could shake it too much, the teacher rushed over and pulled them away.

They waited like that until pick-up time, and only then did the door Nina could never open finally swing open.

When Nina went out, the plastic bag was still stuffed into her pocket.

Amelia hurried over to pick her up, strapped her into the car seat, and took her to meet Nelson.

Nelson already knew Amelia would come pick him up-he assumed she was just there to take him and Nina

out.

He had no clue Amelia was planning to celebrate his birthday.

Even so, Nelson still had the housekeeper dress him in something nice.

He wore a custom-made little outfit and sat at the entrance early, waiting.

When he saw Amelia and Nina arrive, he stood up and walked over to greet them.

“Nelson, did you wait long? Nina was being a handful in the car just now,” Amelia said, apologizing for being late.

Nina couldn’t sit still in the car for two seconds and kept wanting to get out.

She clutched her plastic bag and demanded to go pick up bottles.

Amelia was totally exasperated with her.

They were on the road-they couldn’t just stop and get out.

And they were in a rush, too.

In the end, talking to her didn’t work-Amelia had to let Nina cry the whole way there.

Nina, who’d cried the whole ride, ran right into Nelson’s arms the second she got out of the car. “Nelson.”

“Nina, why are you crying?” Nelson asked, lowering his head and noticing she was still sobbing.

Nina’s little face was red from crying.

In her tearful, baby-soft voice, she accused, “Mommy hit”

Amelia hadn’t hit Nina at all-she’d only taken Nina’s bag away for a minute.

And when she saw how hard Nina was crying, she gave right back.

That little back-and-forth somehow turned into “Mommy hit.”

Honestly, Amelia sometimes thought her Nina was a pro at making things up.

But other parents from the daycare had told similar stores-none of their kids were any better.

Talking nonsense was pretty normal for this age.

“Where your mommy hit you?”

Nelson-who was a head taller than her-believed her and lowered his head to check her tiny hands. carefully.

He knew Amelia sometimes tapped Nina’s hands when he was naughty.

One little kid was crying and the other was comforting er-Amelia couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped in.

“Nina, I didn’t hit you. Nelson, don’t listen to her-we need to go now.”

Nina’s daycare ended at four. By the time Amelia came to pick Nelson up, it was already 4:48.

She still had to take the two kids out to play and eat dinner. She couldn’t push the schedule too late.

Benjamin was busy today. Daniel had already agreed to come along and help her take care of the two kids.

Before long, Amelia had both children safely bundled into the car and driven to the mall entrance.

Outside the mall was a mixed-use street-plainly speaking, a snack street.

In the early evening, the snack street was at its busiest.

Amelia had no intention of wandering around the snack street. She wanted to take the kids inside the mall.

But Nina refused to move. Her sharp eyes spotted a homeless man lying on the ground.

The man was dressed in filthy, tattered clothes, and his air looked like it had not been washed in days.
