Sweet Twins

Chapter 625 Damn Nancy

How could Nancy be with Rick when her daughter was in the hospital? Didn’t she care about Nadia anymore?

This question haunted Charles, making him feel suffocated.

"Yes. I heard Director Nancy said she wanted to invite Dr. Rick for lunch." What the nurse said only added fuel to the fire.

When Charles heard this, a flame burned in his chest. "Nancy, you know Nadia is sick, but you still have the mood to eat with another man. Why can't you be a responsible mother to your child? You..."

Charles was so angry that he couldn't even finish his words.

"Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu, do you need a glass of water?" The nurse became anxious when Charles coughed violently.

"No need. Tell me, where did Nancy and Rick go for lunch?" His voice was enough to make anyone tremble in fear.

Therefore, the nurse panicked when he shouted. "I don't know, Mr. Fu. I really don't know."

"Okay, okay. I'll find them myself." When Charles was about to rush to the elevator, the nurse said in a hurry,

"Mr. Fu, it’s been a while since they left. Where are you going to find them now?" These words made Charles pause for a few seconds.

"Damn it, Nancy! You deserve to die!"

Clenching his jaw, Charles walked into the elevator and went back to the gastroenterology department where Nadia was. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

The shift was over, but the doctors and nurses didn't dare to leave without Charles' permission. They all gathered around Nadia, and did their best to entertain her while Charles was away.

The door opened and Charles entered the room with a sullen look on his face.

In an instant, their laughter died down and they all looked at Charles with fear in their eyes.

Only Nadia had the courage to speak. "Daddy, where is Mommy?"

Not wanting to disappoint Nadia, Charles answered, "Mommy is still having an operation, so Daddy hasn't found her. Let's go home now, okay?"

Disappointment flashed through Nadia's eyes. She pouted and asked, "Daddy, when will Mommy finish the operation?"

A lump formed in his throat, which made it difficult for Charles to speak.

How could he answer Nadia's question? Should he continue to lie?

But what else he could do if he didn't lie?

Could he tell Nadia that her dearest Mommy didn't care about her and went on a date with another man?

What would Nadia do if she knew the truth? Would she feel abandoned?

No, no, he couldn't do that. No matter what, he couldn't hurt Nadia's little heart.

So Charles forced a smile. "I asked Erin and she said that your Mommy might take a while to finish it."

"I have to wait for Mommy." Unfortunately for him, Nadia chose to be stubborn at this moment. "I have to wait for Mommy to finish the operation, so we could go home together."

"How about we two go home first? According to the hospital rules, Mommy can't leave her post casually." Although he was in a bad mood, he still persuaded Nadia in a soft voice.

As smart as she was, Nadia asked, "Daddy, isn't this hospital yours? You can order Mommy, right? If you ask her go home, she must go home, right?"

With a sigh, Charles replied, "But the doctor's duty is to save the patients. Nadia, we can't do that."

Biting her lips, Nadia thought for a while. "I think Daddy is right. How about this? We wait for Mommy to finish the operation. I'll give her a kiss, and then we can go home. Is that alright?"

If Nancy was here, Charles would definitely agree to Nadia's request. But since Nancy was not here, how long could Nadia wait for her?

What if Nancy came back late?

It would be cruel to give her false hopes. He couldn't let Nadia wait here for nothing.

"Nadia, Daddy is hungry. Let's go home and have lunch, okay?" The people who were watching them thought that Charles was really patient when it came to his daughter.

"Daddy, I have a good idea." All of a sudden, Nadia's eyes twinkled. She put her lips close to Charles' ear and whispered, "Daddy, I think Mommy must be very hungry too. Daddy can buy some food, so that Mommy can eat after the operation. Isn't this a good idea?"

It was a good idea, but... 'Honey, your Mommy is not in the operating room at all.'

Looking at Nadia's excited eyes made Charles’ heart ache. He kissed her on the forehead and said, "Nadia, let's go home, okay?"

Nadia didn’t expect him to answer this way. She thought her father would say she had a great idea.

Shaking her head, Nadia continued to be stubborn. "I don't want to go home. I want to see Mommy, Daddy."

"Then tell Daddy, how long will you wait for Mommy?" It seemed like no matter what he said, Nadia would insist on waiting for her mom.

"I have to wait for Mommy... for a long time... I’ll wait for Mommy to come out of the operating room."

"If your Mommy has to do the surgery for a long time and Daddy has something to deal with this afternoon, what about Nadia?" Obviously, Charles just wanted to find an excuse to leave with Nadia.

"If Mommy hasn't come out for a long time, I will go home with Daddy."

"Okay, it's a deal." Then Nadia reached out her little hand and patted Charles’ big hand.

"It’s a deal, Daddy." The two of them nodded and smiled at each other.

"Nadia, let's wait for Mommy for an hour. If Mommy hasn't finished the operation within an hour, let's leave, okay?" To be honest, Charles doubted if Nancy could come back within an hour. He could vividly imagine how Nancy was having a good time with Rick.

There were still a lot of things that Nadia didn’t know, so she blinked a few times after she heard what her father had said. "Daddy, how long is an hour?"

"One hour is sixty minutes. It's longer than your class. So we will have to wait for a long time." Helpless, Charles had no choice but to set a trap for his beloved daughter, for him to take Nadia home smoothly.

For kids around Nadia’s age, the time they spent during classes was too long, and playing was the happiest thing.

Somehow, Nadia found the classes boring because she already knew a lot of words at a young age.

After all, she read lot of books with Bobby.

But of course, not all classes were boring. She enjoyed the arts and craft classes. What she didn’t like was discussing the words she already knew.

Whenever she had this kind of class, she felt like the time was running slow.

It took Nadia a little while to decide. But in the end, she nodded her little head. "Okay, Daddy. Let's wait for Mommy for an hour."

Once again, Charles felt something pinched his heart as he stared at Nadia. He felt sorry for her daughter, yet all he could do was kiss her on the cheek. "Okay, honey, let's wait for Mommy now."

"Daddy is so nice." As soon as Charles picked her up, Nadia put her arms around his neck.

A smile appeared on Charles’ face, but his heart was filled with bitterness. He could feel that Nadia was eager to be with Nancy.

However, it seemed like Nancy didn’t want to accompany her sick daughter.

Was it so important to have lunch with Rick?

At this moment, Charles had mixed emotions. It was as if he had never known Nancy.
