Chapter 357 Trevor's Pain Amelia held back her anger as she tried to stop Nina. 42.7%9 Finished Scolded by her mother, Nina blinked up at Amelia. Seeing how loud Amelia was, she opened her mouth in a little grin, let out a soft laugh-and then deliberately took another sip of bathwater. Amelia was truly angry now. She first patted Nina's hand down, spilling the water back into the tub. Then she gave Nina's mouth a light tap. "Still drinking? If you drink again, Mommy will spank you." This wasn't the first time Nina had drunk bathwater. She'd done it before.

One spanking would keep her in line for a while, but after some time passed, she'd forget the punishment and do it again. Amelia had tried reasoning with her countless times-it never worked. This time, after being lightly smacked again, Nina's mouth trembled. But instead of crying, she just looked up at Amelia with the most pitiful, wronged expression. Amelia stared back at her, refusing to soften immediately. "Mommy..." Abandoned by Amelia's stern face, Nina reached out and grabbed Amelia's hand. She wasn't being naughty anymore.

Sniffling, she called out in a tiny, aggrieved voice while rubbing her eyes with her other chubby hand. "I no cry." Nina usually wailed after being spanked. This time, she wanted to cry too, but she held it back. She hiccupped softly. "I cry many." She meant she had already cried so much today, so now she didn't want to cry anymore. Hearing her words, Amelia suddenly leaned in close to examine Nina's eyes, "Do your eyes hurt a little?" she asked. Nina nodded. "Hurt." Amelia's stern expression melted away.

She lifted Nina out of the water, wrapped her in a fluffy towel, and carried her to the bed. 1/3 19:10 Fri, Jan 16 O Chapter 357 Trevor's Pain The live-in nanny arrived almost instantly when called, 7% Finished Amelia asked her to boil an egg. She used the warm, hard-boiled egg to gently press against Nina's puffy eyes, hoping to reduce the swelling. While Nina was being bathed by Amelia, Nelson was being bathed by his father. After both children were clean, they were reunited. Nina wore one of Nelson's pajamas for the time being. The two little ones played together again.

While Nina was distracted, sticking decals, Trevor quietly left the room. He didn't go far-he returned to his own bedroom. With so many people in the house today, Trevor didn't feel comfortable leaving entirely. His room still held many of his wife, Grace Smith's, belongings. Everyone had told him Grace was dead. She had died giving birth. They said Grace had never loved him-she loved someone else. Being with him had only been out of fear; she hadn't dared refuse him. She had never been happy with him. Because he made her miserable, Grace had tried to escape while pregnant.

But even after leaving him, she still lost her life in childbirth. Whenever Trevor thought about the pain he had caused Grace, he wished he could follow her into death immediately! He wanted to die-but he couldn't. He still hadn't found Grace's remains. Without her body, he couldn't be buried with her. He would only die once he found her. Trevor stayed in the room filled with Grace's things, unwilling to take a single step outside. His head began to throb. This was the warning sign of an episode.

To keep himself from doing something terrible while out of control, Trevor endured the pain and locked the door first. He suffered alone in his room. Not far away, in another oom, Nelson suddenly felt a sharp ache in his chest ||| O 2/3 19 10 Fri, Jan 16 0 Chapter 357 Trevor's Pain while playing. His small face tightened with discomfort. Nina tilted her head and looked at him. "Nelson, what wrong!" When Nelson didn't answer right away, Nina leaned her chubby face even closer. She repeated with full concern. "Nelson, what wrong!" Her earnest worry reached him.

Nelson touched his chest and said quietly to Nina, "I don't know. It just hurts a little." Nina blinked several times, thinking hard for a few seconds. Then she came to a conclusion. "You miss Daddy?" Nelson shook his head. He knew his daddy was right here in the house tonight. His daddy was so close-so he felt satisfied and didn't miss him. But Nina didn't believe his shake of the head. She knew how much Nelson loved his daddy! Right now, his daddy wasn't here with them, so that must be why Nelson felt bad. "Nelson, find Daddy!" 7%8 Finished Nina was a girl of action.

She immediately climbed off the bed and grabbed Nelson's hand, ready to drag him along. Nelson hesitated. "Nina, my dad hates being bothered." Nelson knew Trevor preferred solitude. He didn't want anyone entering his room. Even the cleaners weren't allowed inside-he took care of it himself. Nelson hesitated and didn't move right away. 274 3/3 19.10 Fri, Jan 16 0 Cedella Cedella is a passionate storyteller known for her bold romantic and spicy novels that keep readers hooked from the very first chapter.
