Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1369

Adora mimicked Nathaniel's manner, whispering, "Uncle Nate, let's accompany Asher together. Running away from the situation isn't the answer. If we need to apologize, let's apologize. If we need to admit our mistakes, let's do it. Asher will eventually be moved by you and forgive you!"

Nathaniel's face paled a few shades as he gently stroked the back of Adora's head.

"It's not something that can be resolved with just an apology. Let me think of another solution."

Pouting her little pink lips, Adora did not hesitate to expose him.

"Uncle Nate, are you trying to escape?"

Nathaniel fell silent.

He just… had not figured out how to face Asher yet.

Every time he saw Asher waiting obediently on the hospital bed, looking frail, he felt immense guilt but also a sense of powerlessness.

It left him deeply frustrated.

"Uncle Nate," Adora cooed as she tugged at his sleeve, swaying back and forth, "come with me. Sometimes, when Daddy makes a mistake, Mommy doesn't want to talk to him either. But Daddy keeps trying to please her, doing everything and anything he can to make up for it!"

Adora stifled a laugh, covering her mouth.

"Why don't you buy a durian? If Asher doesn't forgive you, you can kneel on the durian shell. He'll definitely be touched!"

Nathaniel was left speechless.

How did a five-year-old child know the existence of such an exotic fruit?

Moreover, there was no logic in him kneeling before Asher.

Nonetheless, he was more curious about Adora's thought process.

"Adora, how did you come up with kneeling on a durian to apologize? Did your daddy… ever do something like that?"

Adora shook her head honestly. "I don't know. When Mommy punishes Daddy, they always close the door. I've never seen it. Our house has really good soundproofing. I couldn't hear anything even when I pressed my ear against the wall."

She immediately covered her mouth and whispered, "Oh no, did I speak too loudly? Did Asher hear me?"

Nathaniel thought Adora was overreacting.

After all, they were not up to no good, and it did not matter if Asher heard them.

He gently ruffled Adora's head and said, "Adora, keep Asher company for a while. I'll try to look for durian and pineapple."

"Yay!" Adora exclaimed.

…

Inside the ward, Adora eagerly jumped on Asher's bed.

"Asher, are you hungry? We have fruits in the afternoon—durian and pineapple!"

Asher remained expressionless, glancing at her and poking her head as she leaned in for a hug.
