“Amelia, we’re not outside now.” Benjamin held her close, his voice low. “Can I kiss you now?”
“You still want to kiss?” Amelia’s words were barely out before Benjamin’s goodnight kiss landed.
The adults were kissing again. On her pillow, Nina scratched her bottom, rolled over, and continued sleeping soundly.
Nina had gone to bed late that night, but the next morning, she still woke up earlier than Benjamin and Amelia.
After waking up, she first kissed Amelia, patted Benjamin, and once she was done with that, she climbed down from the bed and went to open the door.
“Un-coo Dan’el!” Knowing Daniel was home, she knocked loudly on his door first thing in the morning.
Daniel opened the door, his handsome face looking utterly gloomy.
Unlike Daniel’s gloomy mood, Nina was all smiles and full of energy that morning.
Her greeting was loud and cheerful. “Un-coo Dan’el, good morning!”
Looking at the vibrant Nina, Daniel nearly cried.
“Nina, bad morning,” he choked out, squatting down and holding out his hand. “I’m broke. Give me some money.”
Nina shook her head honestly. “Nina no money.”
She was too young to have an allowance.
Hearing this, Daniel grew even sadder.
The two hugged. Nina, like a little adult, patted Daniel’s head.
“Un-coo Dan’el, no cry. Nina make money,” she promised solemnly.
Daniel held her, not taking her words seriously at all.
She’s just saying that to make me feel better.
“My Nina… how am I going to live?” Daniel wailed.

Chapter 272 Make Money
Nina kept patting his back, comforting him.
After a good while, seeing Daniel stop crying, Nina heaved a sigh of relief.
She said, “Nina so tired.”
The very tired Nina was surprisingly cooperative during breakfast.

“Grandpa, me sleepy home?” she asked, tugging on William’s hand as she put on her little backpack.
William wanted to say yes in his heart, but didn’t dare. “Nina, all the other children sleep at school. You should sleep at school, too. I will pick you up after school, okay?”
Nina huffed unhappily, “No okay!”
No matter how much she protested, off to daycare she went.
Soon, she was dropped off.
Jerry saw her arrive and immediately offered his snacks.
