Chapter 2055: Chapter 2269

She looked up at Colby with large, tearful eyes and sobbed dramatically.

Colby shook his head, showing no willingness to intervene.

“Destinee, you shouldn’t call other people ‘Daddy’.

You really do deserve a spanking.

”

Destinee felt a sense of despair.

It was over.

Colby wasn’t going to assist her; he had let her down.

Their mother was not in the lab to help her.

Feeling utterly unsupported and desolate, she broke down in loud cries.

Nathan sat sternly by the bed, apparently indifferent to her tears and having no desire to placate her.

Fearing the imminent punishment, Destinee reluctantly positioned herself across Nathan’s lap, sulking.

Her small legs kicked in frustration as she murmured, “If you don’t care about me anymore, then let the pain kill me! Daddy, just spank me to death.

It seems I’m just a little baby nobody loves.

”

Nathan frowned and looked at her.

He hadn’t even started to spank her, yet she was already acting like a martyr and seeking sympathy.

He wondered where she had picked up such tactics.

He secured Destinee’s waist with his left hand, and his right hand was raised.

“Nathan, don’t!”

A pair of large hands appeared before Nathan, shielding Destinee’s back.

Nathan didn’t need to look up to recognize who was interrupting his discipline of Destinee.

Destinee seemed to realize she had found a protector and cried out, “Kyson, help me! I’m going to be spanked to death!”

Kyson hadn’t left the area.

Sensing that Nathan was about to discipline Destinee, he had stayed close to the door, listening intently, concerned that Destinee might be unfairly treated.

“Nathan, what Destinee did earlier today was indeed improper, but there was a reason behind it.

Phillis Perez demeaned me during our blind date.

I chose not to argue with her, but her remarks became increasingly intolerable.

Destinee couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up in my defense,” he said sincerely, carefully lifting Destinee from Nathan’s lap.

Seeing no objection from Nathan, he confidently cradled her in his arms, soothingly patting her back as she wept, gently consoling her.

“I know I shouldn’t meddle in your parenting, but I must admit some responsibility for today’s incident.

My handling of the situation was flawed.

”

Nathan looked at him with piercing eyes but did not contradict him.

“Indeed, the fault is yours.

Destinee is still young and doesn’t grasp these matters, but you do.

You were aware she used an inappropriate term and spoke out of turn, yet you didn’t intervene or correct the misunderstanding with Phillis.

Kyson, are you certain your actions were without hidden intentions?”

Kyson was at a loss for words in response.

Destinee sobbed and clung tightly to Kyson’s neck, hiccupping through her tears.

“Boohoo, Daddy, don’t be mad at Kyson.

He doesn’t mean any harm.

He just spoils me because he loves me.

”

Nathan watched his daughter’s distressed and defensive expression, sighed deeply, and asked, “Destinee, do you understand what you did wrong?”

Destinee remained in Kyson’s arms and did not answer his question.

With a stern expression, Nathan warned, “This is the last time I will correct you for indiscriminately calling someone ‘Daddy.

’ If it happens again, I will keep you at home and you won’t be allowed to see your godfather.

”

His warning had a significant impact.

Destinee became visibly frightened and tearfully acknowledged her error.

“I was wrong, I won’t do it again; please forgive me, Daddy.

”
