Chapter 24 Digital Hate
Daniel sent a photo over.
Daniel replied, “She finished ‘unpacking’ them.”
Lucas typed, “That’s… quite thoroughly unpacked!”
“No matter, I’ll buy more! I’m almost done with the stuff on my plate.”
“Wait for me to come see Nina in person.”
While the two men chatted on WhatsApp, Nina and Nelson were also huddled together, whispering secrets. As she whispered, Nina used her chubby little hands to check Nelson for any new injuries.
“Nelson, hurt?”
“No hurts. He hasn’t hit me these past two days.” Nelson proactively lifted his shirt to show her.
After inspecting him, Nina felt a little reassured. She tilted her chubby face up, thought for a moment, then said in her soft, milky voice, “Nelson, come Nina home! Nina home, this big!”
Nina spread her little arms wide, trying to show Daniel just how big her home was!

Daniel managed to coax Nina home. Amelia, who had been filming, hadn’t returned yet. Her delay wasn’t due to work.
She had just stepped out of the second-floor changing room when Zoe cornered her at the stairwell.
Zoe stared directly at Amelia, her eyes filled with undisguised loathing.
“Amelia, your skills at seducing people are truly impressive.
“No wonder Daniel’s attitude towards me changed so suddenly!
“So it’s because of you.
“He targeted Mabel for you, and unfollowed me for you! Amelia, do you just love stealing what belongs to others that much?”
Zoe’s composure had been severely cracked by Daniel’s actions today. However, that crack only lasted a moment. In her heart, she still firmly believed that Daniel loved her the most!
“Amelia, tell me, if Daniel found out you hurt me….
