Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2066

"Callum, how many times has Nathaniel come to pick you up from kindergarten?"

Callum froze.

Nathaniel rarely came by, and when he did, it was usually because Callum had done something wrong and had been reported.

In fact, he could count on one hand the times Nathaniel had come to pick him up properly.

However, he lifted his chin defensively and said, "Daddy comes all the time. You couldn't even count them all."

Asher gave a dismissive snort. "Stop lying to yourself."

Callum looked down, silently continuing to eat his cookie.

He had never really thought about this before and did not mind Nathaniel not picking him up as long as there were drivers and bodyguards.

Yet, hearing Asher's words made him feel suddenly disappointed and a bit sad.

Reluctantly, he mustered the courage to ask, "Asher, did Uncle Eli often pick you and Adora up from school?"

Asher smirked. "Every day."

Callum was stunned.

He knew how busy Elliot was, yet he managed to pick them up almost every day.

He felt a pang of bitterness, and even the cookies did not taste as great anymore.

Asher kept his hands in his pockets and ignored Callum's expression.

His attention was on the kindergarten's surroundings, and he noticed a shadow lingering in the corner.

Was someone following them?

The Nicholls family's bodyguards?

The Jenkins family's?

He considered it and said, "Callum, it's Friday, and I'm going to a football match with Adora. Do you want to come along?"

"Sure, where is it?"

"Not far from here. It's just a few minutes' walk away."

Callum closed the cookie box, hugging it to his chest, and ran up to Asher.
