Miracle Cutie (Amelia and Benjamin) novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20 The Last Chance

Right.

That had to be it.

Whenever Nina was involved, Daniel always put her first.

The moment Zoe convinced herself of that, she bit her lip in anger.

“That little jinx… the second she shows up, everything goes wrong for me.”

She silently swore she would make Daniel send that brat away as soon as possible.

Zoe still had no idea that Daniel was already thoroughly disgusted with her.

After cursing Nina in her mind, she rushed forward to help Alistair up from the floor.

“Alistair, how are you feeling? I’ll take you to the hospital right now!”

Neither of them mentioned calling the police.

Even Alistair-beaten half to death-didn’t dare bring it up.

He didn’t have the guts to provoke Daniel openly, but the bitterness burned deep.

Just you wait.

He swallowed the metallic taste of blood, eyes filled with pure, festering hatred.

“Daniel,” he rasped hoarsely, “I’ll make you regret this…”

He didn’t call the police, didn’t call an ambulance.

Dragging his injured body, he rested a long moment before limping down the stairs toward the quieter back exit, then slipped into a car and headed to the hospital.

He had a massive fanbase, and he couldn’t let them find out about today.

His fans defended him blindly.

If they learned Daniel had beaten him, they would swarm the internet, attacking Daniel nonstop.

And Daniel-maybe he wouldn’t care about the dumb fans, but he would absolutely take his anger out on the source.

On him.

So while Alistair and Zoe quietly rushed to the hospital, Nina-already taken back to the restaurant by Daniel-had finished eating.

And her chubby little face was absolutely filthy.

Nina hadn’t noticed at all.

She puckered her lips, ready to plant a big grateful kiss on Daniel’s cheek.

Seeing her messy face inch closer, Daniel hesitated for a few seconds… then decisively grabbed a napkin.

“Hold up. Let’s clean your face first.”

Only after wiping her clean did he let her continue.

“Muah! Muah! Muah!”

Nina’s soft little kisses landed loudly on Daniel’s handsome cheek.

“Un-coo Dan’el, Nina wuv you!”

Her big bright eyes looked up at him, her milky voice sweet enough to melt steel.

Daniel had been feeling pretty low.

The memories of the young Zoe were still the most beautiful in his mind.
