Sweet Twins

Chapter 635 Disturbance

"Thank you, honey." The guilt he was feeling made it a little hard for him to speak, so he focused on drying his hair.

As soon as he was done, he went straight to the guest room.

"You are an adult now, but you still don't know how to take care of yourself. I don't know what to say," Doris murmured and went to the master’s bedroom with Ace in her arms.

How was Nancy doing today?

It was not hard to tell that Nancy had spent the whole day being angry. Charles imprisoned her, and her best friend didn't even help her after knowing it. Who wouldn't be depressed in this situation?

She dialed Erin’s number, but the call didn’t even last a minute.

"Director Nancy, I'm very busy. I'll get back to you later." The hesitation in Erin's voice didn't escape her ear but she already hung up before Nancy could even say a word.

The next person she called was Jessie, but she didn't get through her phone.

There was no reason for Jessie not to answer her call, unless she was in the operating room, so Nancy gave up after a few attempts.

Nancy paced restlessly in her room, and then came to the garden to check if there was any way for her to sneak out.

However, the moment she came near the gate, the bodyguards would come over and block her way.

"Mrs. Fu, you are free to roam around the yard and the villa, as long as you don't go out," the bodyguard said politely.

It was useless to quarrel with them since Nancy knew that they only obeyed Charles.

Therefore, she would just silently go back inside the house and curse him in her head.

At first, Nancy thought that Charles would compromise and let her go back to work in the hospital like he did before.

However, Erin's call in the afternoon made Nancy feel like she fell into an ice cellar.

Even though her voice was low, the news she had said still gave Nancy a heavy blow.

"Director Nancy, I was reporting to the newly appointed director when you called me earlier, so I couldn't talk too much. Now I’ve finally found a time to call you. I don't know what happened between you and Mr. Fu, but when I went to work today, I saw an attached statement in our department saying that you were physically ill, and you will not be the director of pediatric department anymore because you will rest at home for a period of time until you recover. After a while, a new director came to our department. Her name is Brandy Yu. She is beautiful and she has good medical skills, but she has a big mouth. Of course, she can't be compared with you."

Maybe it was because she was talking too much that she had to take a deep breath before she continued, "There are different opinions about your sudden resignation in the hospital. Some said you were fired by Mr. Fu, and the others thought you've left with Rick. In short, it was all because of Rick. He is a third wheel..."

"No, it's not like that. Charles just doesn't want me to work anymore because he doesn't want me to help Nana get better. He doesn't want me to investigate the club, so he's keeping me by his side. In this way, the case of the club will be closed soon, with David being the mastermind."

"I think Mr. Fu is a good person. He won't hurt you. Why do you always think so bad of him? He just doesn’t want you to get too tired from working. Besides..." For a moment, Erin hesitated. " He's afraid

that Rick will really take you away. If that happens, he will lose everything, because he really loves you. You don't know that."

"I know. But does love mean possession? And imprisonment? It's too heavy. I don't want such love!" It was not that she doubted Charles’ love for her. In fact, she even thought it was too much that it suffocated her.

"Well, Director Nancy, what are you going to do now?" They both fell silent for a while, thinking what to do next.

"Erin, please do me a favor. Contact Rick and ask him to take Nana away. Ask him to cure Nana in all means." Before Nancy could even finish her words, a strange woman’s rebuke came through the phone.

"Erin, a patient is calling you. Don’t you know that you can’t call during working hours? I hate people who break the rules the most!" It was the newly appointed director who caught Erin on the phone.

She was startled that she immediately hung up.

With a sigh, Nancy put down her phone. She didn’t have any choice but to wait for Charles and the kids to come home.

Every second that passed was dreadful, but at least she could be with her children. Since she had nothing else to do, she took out some ingredients from the fridge to make dinner early.

In this way, she could kill the boring time and take good care of the children.

"Mommy, you are indeed at home." As soon as Nadia saw Nancy, she opened her arms and flew over like a bird that had just come out of the cage.

It was a good thing that Nancy had warned herself more than once not to show anger in front of the children when they came back.

She must restrain herself and solve the problem with Charles in private.

So, when Nadia pounced on her, Nancy hugged her with a smile.

"Yes, Mommy has been waiting for you at home."

As he came nearer, Bobby praised her like an adult. "Mommy, good girl!"

On the other hand, Charles remained expressionless.

The truth was, he was surprised to find that the dinner was ready on the table, but he didn't show it on his face.

Needless to ask, it was Nancy who prepared all of it.

She even cooked dinner for them!

"Wow, Mommy has cooked so many delicious food!" The foodie Nadia had been hungry for a whole day and was ecstatic that she could finally eat something.

When Nadia was about to touch the squid, Nancy scolded her, "Wash your hands first!"

Even so, Nadia was still happy when she withdrew her hand and ran to the bathroom.

"Mommy is so good. You made my favorite sweet and sour spareribs. Oh, you made a lot of meat today. Mommy, aren't you afraid that we will get too fat?" With his hands clasped behind his back, Bobby turned his head and smelled all kinds of dishes with a smile.

"You are not fat... Eat more, so you will be in good health. It's not easy to get sick."

"It's mainly because your genes are so good that you can't get fat." The atmosphere was light, so Charles couldn’t help but smile a little. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"I don't know whether the genes are good or not. But, they are so smart that they always choose the best gene to inherit..." There was a smile on Nancy’s face, but her voice was dripping with sarcasm.

But Charles didn't say anything; he just lift the corner of his lips.

For the whole day, he had been restless thinking about Nancy. He thought she would be furious after he forcibly locked her up and took away her position as a director.

To his surprise, he was greeted with peace when he was expecting to be attacked as soon as he came home.

Well, was it the calm before the storm?

Charles was not sure, so he was on guard against Nancy until the children fell asleep. Once they fell asleep, Nancy's wrath would probably erupt.

Therefore, although Charles looked domineering, he felt a little nervous deep inside. He knew Nancy's temperament too well.

There was no way she would simply bear being trapped at home.

When the kids fell asleep, Charles went to the study.

Without any sign of unhappiness on her face, Nancy came over with a cup of coffee.

After putting down the cup on the table, she said, "It's so late. Why don't you go to bed?"

"I’m reading some documents." The closer she came, the more he lowered his head.

"I was bored at home today, so I read a novel called 'The Shawshank Redemption'. It's very good. Have you read it? How about we have a discussion about this book?"
