Chapter 379 Ride Cart
For now, all they could do was wait.

“Don’t worry. She’ll be fine. When we went last time, didn’t that fortune teller say it himself? He said Nina had a great fortune.
“No matter what happens, Nina will always turn danger into safety.”
Benjamin comforted Amelia, not wanting her to worry too much.
They spoke in low voices, afraid Nina might overhear.
Nina had loved listening to them talk since she was little
When Amelia took her to the small square to play, if she heard adults gossiping, Nina would always scoot over to listen.
When she was even smaller-around two months old-she was already very
active.
But one time, Amelia was chatting with a friend who came to visit. They talked for a long time. When Amelia turned to look at the bed, she saw Nina had already woken up.
Nina didn’t make a sound, as usual, to ask Amelia to hold her.
She just lay there with her eyes wide open, quietly and attentively listening to the adults talk.
Amelia had been amused by her back then.
The two adults whispered to each other until Amelia finished drying her hair and walked over.
As expected, Nina didn’t tell Amelia what Nelson had said.
The moment Amelia arrived, she took the straw from Nina’s hand. “Nina, don’t bite the straw. This could poke you if you’re not careful.”
Nina had finished her juice but still wanted to play with the straw.
The tip was bitten flat, looking quite dirty.
Amelia took the straw away and brought her to eat.
“Mommy, ride car?”
Nina, held by Amelia as they left the room, saw the sightseeing cart.
She pointed at it, wanting to ride.
Amelia nodded. “Okay.”
Amelia asked Benjamin to go to the restaurant first and order food.
She planned to take Nina and Nelson for one ride.
Before getting on, Amelia specially told Nina, “Nina, wee only riding one loop, okay? After one loop, we’ll go eat lunch.

“You can’t keep asking to ride more and more.
“We can ride again after lunch.”
“Can you promise Mommy?”
Before Amelia even finished asking, Nina loudly said yes
She always agreed quickly. But she always ended up breaking her promise.
Amelia knew her habits, but she still discussed things with her beforehand every time.
Making an agreement ahead of time meant she could discipline Nina when she broke it.
When the sightseeing cart started moving, Nelson instinctively looked around for Grace’s figure.
He still wanted to see his mommy again.
Nina sat on the cart, her eyes darting everywhere.
The two little ones quickly finished one loop.
As expected, Nina refused to get off after one ride.
She clung tightly to the safety belt, tilted her chubby face up, and asked, “Mommy, one more?”
Amelia said, “You promised Mommy just one loop. We’ll ride again after lunch.”
Nina knew she had promised Amelia, but she still wanted to ride.
She looked at Amelia with pleading eyes, repeating, “One more.”
Amelia met her gaze. Nina could read faces.
But even knowing the look, she still threw a tantrum.
“Mommy, Nina no eat.”
Nina knew Amelia wanted to take her to eat.
She didn’t want to eat. She only wanted to ride the cart.
They were at a standoff for a moment. Finally, Nelson got off first.
He said to Nina, “Nina, I’m very hungry. We eat first, okay?”
Nelson said he was very hungry. Amelia said she was hungry too.
Nina sniffled, pouted, and opened her chubby arms toward Amelia.
She wanted Amelia to lift her down.

This time, Nina was relatively easy to handle, so after Amelia picked her up, she kissed her chubby cheek. “Nina, be good.”

Amelia coaxed Nina and brought her and Nelson to the restaurant.
Benjamin had already ordered the food.
He ordered everything Nina liked.
He knew Nina wouldn’t like the local food without her even trying it.
