Ms. Escape: Marrying to Run, Fighting to Rise Novel

Chapter 294 Stopped Crying "Nina, you don't want to fish anymore?" one of the older kids asked. "No," Nina said, shaking her little head, and went off to catch grasshoppers instead. With her bodyguards following, nothing unexpected happened. William arrived quickly. As soon as he got there, he wanted to take her back. Nina threw a fit. She thrashed in his arms, and William almost couldn't hold her. He said, "Sweetheart, the pond is dangerous. What if you fell in? We won't play here. Let's go home and play. I will get you a snack, okay? Be good.

We have a water jar at home; we can play with the water in that." William had had a few incidents taking Nina out before. His safety awareness was now at an all-time high. He wouldn't let Nina near any potentially dangerous situation. Forcibly carried away by William, Nina's little face was streaked with tears. She arched her back, stretching her chubby hands toward the older kids. "Help! Save me!" she cried out to them. The older kids wanted to help, but they couldn't. Nina was in William's arms; they couldn't exactly snatch her.

They watched helplessly as a tearful Nina was carried off, feeling bad for her. Nina was already quite far away, but they were still watching. "Poor Nina. She couldn't even play without being controlled," one said. "She asked us to save her, and we didn't," another added sadly. The older kids lost their enthusiasm for fishing. They sighed in unison. After a few sighs, one of the older kids suggested, "How about we sneak 1/4 17:19 Fri, Jan 16 Chapter 294 Stopped Crying Nina out to play tomorrow? We'll bring her back after we're done." "Okay. They agreed to "steal" Nina.

Meanwhile, Nina, having failed in her struggle, was angry with William. Her little face was damp, and she was still hiccupping with sobs. When William spoke to her, she turned her head away sharply, ignoring him. William said, "Nina, I was scared you'd fall in the water. You don't know how to swim. What would happen if you fell in? It's very dangerous." But his well-meaning words fell on deaf ears. Nina was too little. All she knew was that she was having fun, and William stopped her. That made her incredibly angry. The angry Nina was brought back to the Bennett House.

Even after being set down, she wouldn't speak to William. Harper, who had just finished dealing with Michael, saw Nina return crying and immediately crouched down to ask what had happened. Nina was so furious she could barely get her words out. "Grandpa bad! Nina no back. No talk Grandpa! No Grandpa hold!" She sobbed her complaint. Harper, who had just comforted Noah who'd been crying from a bug bite, now had to soothe Nina, who wanted to keep playing outside but had been hauled home by her grandpa. She was quite busy. Despite being busy, she was good with kids.

Harper cleaned Nina's hands and face, brought out some tasty snacks, and turned on the TV. Most children liked this routine, and Noah was no exception. Sure enough, with food and something to watch, and after Harper brought over a cardboard box with little chicks inside, Nina stopped crying completely. Noah had another box of chicks to look at. The two little ones sat in the spacious living room, each doing their own thing, looking quite harmonious for the moment. 2/4 17:19 Fri, Jan 16 Chapter 294 Stopped Crying : Finished Seeing Nina had stopped crying, William didn't dare approach to talk.

He was afraid she'd start crying again at the sight of him. The adults had a lot to do today. Gabriel's coffin had even been replaced. After Gabriel's cremation, Michael had ordered a coffin. But back in the hometown, Gabriel's eldest brother insisted they couldn't use that one. Gabriel had prepared his own coffin years ago. The design on it was chosen by Gabriel's wife. So for the burial, they had to use that coffin. Hearing this, Michael obediently switched.

With the coffin matter finally sorted out, the Bennett family had to hire a professional funeral home ensemble, in keeping with local burial traditions. There would be music, hymns, and even some folk-style performances as part of the memorial service-all those little customs that made the whole thing feel complete and meaningful. Gabriel had always cherished these old traditions when he was alive, so of course, Michael made sure every last detail was taken care of. William also helped with the funeral arrangements the whole time. As the adults bustled about, the noise grew louder and louder.

Eventually, Nina lost interest in the chicks. She loved excitement. She toddled off toward the east courtyard, where the mourning hall was set up. Noah, seeing her go, followed. The coffin was in the east courtyard. Seeing the two little ones run over, the adults quickly tried to stop them. One said, "You two go play somewhere else, not here. This isn't a fun place. Be good, okay?" 3/4 AdminJ
