Miracle Cutie (Amelia and Benjamin) novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427 Her Father Is Benjamin

As they were leaving, Lester, who wasn’t far from them, also stood up abruptly.

Soon, the wailing Nina was reunited with Catherine.

Her cries grew even louder the moment she saw Catherine.

She toddled over on her short little legs and flung herself at Catherine. Her chubby face was red from crying, the veins on her eyelids clearly visible.

She had been crying for a while, and after Catherine picked her up, she even retched a couple

of times.

Seeing Nina

cry

like that made Catherine’s face turn icy cold.

Anthony, who hadn’t expected to actually see Catherine, was completely stunned.

“Dad, what… how is this-” Anthony’s brain was short-circuiting. He instinctively looked to his father, wanting to ask how Catherine could suddenly have a granddaughter.

Before he could finish his question, Arthur’s face darkened, and he snapped sharply, “Apologize! Apologize to this child.”

Arthur didn’t even really need to order Anthony.

Anthony was no fool; he could read the situation.

He knew how to pick his battles, even when being protective.

Seeing Catherine pick Nina up and let the little girl bury her wet face in the crook of her neck without a hint of disgust told Anthony exactly how important Nina was to Catherine.

Anthony took a deep breath. He didn’t hesitate any longer and promptly apologized to Nina.

He not only apologized, but he also made Harry, who was in his arms, apologize.

“Harry, you touched someone without their permission. That’s not polite,” Anthony said, finally acknowledging Harry’s mistake.

He explained this to Harry, then made him apologize to Nina. To show sincerity, he even had Harry say “I’m sorry” in Nina’s language.

While Anthony didn’t have the terrifying language-learning talent of guys like Benjamin or Lester, he still knew a thing or two.

Both Anthony and Harry apologized. Anthony’s apology still held a hint of reluctance.

Anthony lowered his voice and whispered a warning to his nephew, “Sweetheart, you’d better apologize properly. Otherwise, you might get hit again.”

While it sounded like he was threatening Harry, Anthony was actually trying to protect him.

He had to defuse this fight between the kids. He couldn’t let Harry bear the brunt of Catherine’s anger!

Anthony’s whispered threat worked. Harry cried even harder.

He was already pretty beaten up. After Anthony’s scare, he lifted a little hand, wiping his tears as he apologized again.

He looked pretty pitiful too.

Anthony didn’t have time to feel sorry for him now. He just wanted Catherine to calm down.

Catherine ignored Arthur and Anthony’s attempts to smooth things over. Her large hand gently patted Nina’s back.

“Alright, enough crying,” she said.

Catherine wasn’t good at comforting people. Her softened tone was her version of soothing. Patting Nina’s back, she told the little girl she was taking her home.

Seeing her still determined to leave, Anthony, while trying to persuade her to stay, couldn’t help but ask, “Who are this child’s parents?”

Nina called Catherine “Grandma,” but everyone knew Catherine had no children of her own, let alone grandchildren.

Her sister Sienna had children. Anthony remembered Sienna’s kids-Benjamin and Daniel— vividly.

But he also remembered that Catherine didn’t get along with the Graham family either. Anthony couldn’t for the life of him figure out where Nina came from.

In the past, Catherine probably wouldn’t have answered such a question. She had a bad temper and didn’t like explaining herself.

But this time, looking at Nina in her arms, Catherine glanced at Anthony.

“He’s someone you know,” she said coolly. “Her father is Benjamin.”

The name “Benjamin” made Anthony’s face go pale.
