Chapter 566 Welcome Back Home
Deep inside, Charles was hoping for Edward to get married as soon as possible. As long as Edward was still unmarried, it made Charles feeling uneasy. It was because Edward could take Nancy away from her. And he wouldn't let that happen.
"Thank you," Edward said with a smile on his face.
"Goodbye, uncle."
"See you around. Goodbye."
It was time for Edward to hang up the phone. Summer reached out the phone and gently took it away from him. She whispered in his ears, "You said you love me, and no one else, right Edward?"
Edward looked at her beautiful eyes for a little while. He reached out for her arms and peacefully rested on her shoulders. "You're the one I love. I will love you forever and always, Summer,"
Edward replied to her in a sweet voice.
Meanwhile, Nancy and Charles had their sumptuous meal in Jay's house. The two adorable children seemed to be full of words when they saw Nancy. But Doris was more excited than the children and kept asking questions.
To let the children know that she was in danger was the last thing Nancy would like to happen. Doris was very careful in speaking but later on slipped her tongue and accidentally revealed something.
"So Nancy, where did the bad guys take you?" Doris asked in confusion.
"What do you mean by bad guys? Mommy went on a business trip, didn't she?" Bobby was the first one to react. His eyes which were once full of excitement turned cold and blank.
For the past few days, Charles had blocked the news of Nancy's disappearance from the two children. He forbid them from watching TV or using their mobile phones. He cut every single thing that might cause the two children to know the truth.
Finally Charles was able to breathe out a sigh of relief but his heart skipped a beat when he heard what Doris said.
The smile on Bobby's face immediately turned into a frown.
"Is that one of your jokes again, Doris? You're so funny. Nancy had a business trip abroad." Jay emphasized with a distinct look on his face.
"Hahaha! Come on. Of course it's a business trip. Let's eat!" Doris said in an awkward voice.
"It was Daddy who told us that mommy went on a business trip," Nadia whispered softly.
"Come on, kids. You don't have to worry about me. Mommy's already here," Nancy said while stroking the heads of the two children.
"I have a question for you Mommy. Will you be worried if I suddenly disappear with Nadia one day?" Bobby raised his head and asked Nancy seriously. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"Mommy will never ever allow that to happen. Okay, sweetie?" It was impossible for Nancy to not know that kind of feeling. She might be away for the past few days but her heart and mind were always with the two children.
All she wanted was to be with her family. She didn't care about any other thing at all.
"Okay. But no more secrets. Please don't suddenly disappear again. It made us worry. If you have a business trip in the future, you must tell us in advance. Okay, mommy?" Bobby said, imitating Nancy's tone.
"Alright." Nancy nodded in agreement.
"Pinky swear," Nadia uttered in a serious tone while she was reaching out her finger.
"Pinky swear. Let's keep our promise forever!" Nancy hooked the pinky fingers of the two children.
It was already late at night when the family left Jay's house. The moon and stars were shining across the vast skies when they reached their car.
At this time, the two children should be asleep already. It way past their bed time but Nancy's presence kept them awake and alive.
While they were sitting in the car, they already had sleepy eyes and their mouths couldn't help but yawn from time to time. They always found a topic to talk about with Nancy. It seemed that the two children really missed Nancy.
Nadia didn't even want to leave Nancy's loving arms.
Even until they returned home, the two children were still sticking with Nancy as much as they could. They were afraid that they might wake up without their mother again.
Charles had observed this and felt a little pain in his heart.
"Kids, your Mommy was so tired of her long business trip and plane ride. She needs to take a rest. Let's take a shower and go to bed early, Okay?" Charles asked patiently.
"Alright but I'll ask mommy to bathe me" Nadia stretched out her arms as if she was asking her mommy to carry her.
"Me too! I want Mommy to bathe me too!" Bobby said with emphasis.
"Mommy and I are girls. Girls can only bathe girls." Nadia held Nancy's arm and shouted at Bobby.
"I'm still her little baby boy. Mommy can still bathe me!" Bobby didn't compromise at all to his sister.
"Hey you two, do you just ignore me?" Charles just pretended to be angry.
"Daddy, you should not sleep with mommy tonight. Mommy is ours," Bobby said with conviction.
"What did you say? Okay, you will sleep with your mommy. But right after you fall asleep, your Mommy will be beside me." For Charles, it was endless days of waiting for Nancy to come home. He wanted to have quality time with her. But with the two children around, it might not be easy.
At least just for tonight.
"Bobby! We won't sleep tonight, right?" asked Nadia.
It was completely obvious that tonight marked the sweet rivalry of the two children and Charles. No matter what he said, there was no way these two children would give up their mommy.
The two children said they wouldn't sleep so that their mommy wouldn't go and sleep with Charles after.
"I can't believe it. How can you do this to Daddy?" Charles asked angrily. His face turned red and his eyebrows were all raised.
"Come on, daddy. We are both of your babies. You should give Mommy to us!" Nadia said with a sweet smile upon her face while biting her fingers.
"Guys, please stop arguing. I have an idea. Let's take a shower first and I'll tell you a story, okay?" Nancy was happy with her family. A few days ago, Edward told her that it was Charles who sent her to the club. Even though she didn't believe it, she was still sad of what she heard.
It was a good thing that everything was nothing but a big misunderstanding.
"Alright!" the two kids answered in chorus.
Bobby raised his eyebrows to Charles. Charles replied in a loud but joking tone, "Woah. You took my woman away. I'll cut off your allowance!"
Charles snorted and went to the bathroom to take a shower alone.
The children clapped their hands while jumping in victory.
In this way, Nancy took the two children to the bathroom.
"Please bathe me first, Mommy." Bobby looked like a child begging for her mother's attention.
"It's a no. At school, my teacher said that boys should not fight with girls. You should be a gentleman and let Mommy bathe me first!" Nadia said while pouting her lips.
