Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2104

Nathaniel looked at Callum's antics and could not help but chuckle, shaking his head.

He stood up and walked over.

Hearing the approaching footsteps, Callum grew even more uneasy.

All the bravado he had a few minutes ago was gone, and he regretted his decision to choose the couch.

Maybe he should have chosen to lie across Nathaniel's lap—at least then he could have bitten him a few times!

However, the expected pain did not come.

When he looked up, he saw Nathaniel squatting on the carpet in front of him, at eye level.

"Is it because I promised to take you to the amusement park last time but never did, so you think I don't keep my word?"

Well…

That was not the reason, but it reminded Callum about the amusement park incident!

Callum pouted, burying his face deeper into the couch cushions.

"Daddy, you're the worst!"

Nathaniel softened his tone, saying, "I've been really busy lately and haven't had the time, but I'm almost done with everything. Once it's all handled, I'll take you to the amusement park as many times as you want. However, you still can't slack off on your homework like you did today. Understand?"

Though Nathaniel's tone was gentle, almost soothing, Callum did not feel comforted at all.

He just felt more upset.

"No, it doesn't matter how much I do, I'll never be as good as Asher. So why bother?"

"Callum Altair Nicholls!"

Nathaniel was genuinely angry.

The sound of his full name in that deep voice sent a shiver down Callum's spine, making him tremble.

He whispered, full of hurt, "Is doing a hundred or a thousand math problems what it takes to make you choose me when I'm in danger?"

The memory of when Callum fell from the rooftop was still vivid in Nathaniel's mind, and his face slowly turned pale.

"Callum…"

He tried to suppress the overwhelming emotions and find the words to explain, but all he could do was let out a defeated sigh.
