Chapter 606 Despair
Chapter 606 Despair
The fear that Charles was feeling right now was worse than what he felt when Nancy disappeared. Nancy was kidnapped that time, but now, it was her choice to leave.
It felt like his heart was being torn apart, and there was nothing he could do to stop it.
What hurt him more was Nancy's expressionless face. She was as cold as ice, and her eyes were like two sharp daggers stabbing into his heart.
It made him suffer!
"Just because I'm leaving doesn't mean I no longer care about the kids. You can choose whether you'd keep Nadia or Bobby. We have two children, one for each of us," said Nancy.
Hearing this made Charles explode. "I want them both! No, I want to keep the three of you. You are my life. No one can leave!"
"Each of us is an independent individual, and neither of us is other person's life. It used to be like this, and it will be the same in the future. If you want to keep the two children, and they’d agree, then I’ll have no objection." A cold smile appeared on her face as she spread out her hands, as if what she had said was just a simple matter.
It was the first time that Charles had seen Nancy be so heartless. In the past, she would act like a spoiled child, but she would never smile like that.
It was fake, and it didn’t reach her eyes.
Seeing this caused Charles’ heart to sink.
However, he had to act tough in front of Nancy. His face tightened as he decided not to let go of Nancy or the children. "I... I won't make a choice."
"Well, let the kids make their own choices." Then Nancy walked to the children's room and knocked on the door. "Get up now."
"Mommy..." Although Nancy couldn’t see the sadness in Nadia’s face, she had sensed it through her voice.
"What's wrong, Nadia?" When Nadia didn’t answer, Nancy got nervous so she knocked again.
Rubbing her eyes, Nadia opened the door and walked out. "I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed about Mommy abandoning us."
Feeling sorry for Nadia, Nancy picked Nadia up and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Silly girl, I'm your Mommy. I will never leave you. That’s why you have to follow me wherever I go, okay?"
Without thinking too much, Nadia nodded. "Okay."
"Good girl, I love you." Tears welled up in Nancy's eyes. She was not happy to leave, but Nancy felt the need to do so, for the sake of Nana, and the rest of the girls in the club.
Looking at the two girls who meant the world to him, Charles couldn’t help but be sad. "Nadia, don't you want Daddy?"
As she rested her head on her mother's shoulder, Nadia replied listlessly, "I want both Mommy and Daddy."
With a sigh, Nancy said, "No, Nadia, you can only choose one now. You have to choose between Mommy and Daddy."
At this point, Nadia could only pout. There was nothing she could say to change her Mommy’s mind, anyway.
Why didn't the relationship between her Daddy and Mommy get better after a night?
"Nadia will definitely choose Daddy, won't you?" Charles immediately regretted saying these words. "Bah, Nadia, don't worry. I won't allow you to go with Mommy."
Confused with his own words, Charles rubbed his forehead painfully. What on earth did he want to say?
Was there something wrong with his ability to express what he felt?
Why did he say something completely different from what he wanted to express?
Nadia pulled away from Nancy and faced Charles. "Daddy, I don't want Mommy to leave either."
With tears threatening to fall from the corners of her eyes, Nancy glanced at him disdainfully. "Charles, don't take advantage of the kids. It's useless. I think we are too emotional now, so it's better for us to separate for a while."
"No way!" Charles refused directly.
However, when Nancy saw that Charles was still unwilling to let her go, she put Nadia down and went to the master’s bedroom. Then she took out her suitcase and threw a few clothes into it.
Watching her mommy pack her things, Nadia shook Charles’ arm. "Daddy, do something to make Mommy stay!"
This was the scene Bobby saw when he entered the room. "Yes, Daddy. You can't let Mommy leave!"
"I know. I won’t let your Mommy leave." Determined to make her stay, Charles rushed into the room.
Without a warning, he pulled out all the things that were in her suitcase. "Have you asked for my permission?"
"You are a lunatic, Charles!" In Nancy’s eyes, Charles was being unreasonable, so she couldn’t help but be angry.
When she bent down to pick up the clothes scattered on the floor, Charles suddenly stepped on them and crushed them with the tips of his shoes. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
The clothes she was taking good care of were now ruined because of him.
Out of anger, Nancy shouted, "Why are you so hateful?" These clothes were expensive, and there were a few more that she didn't have time to wear before they were destroyed by Charles.
Nancy's heart ached as she looked at the mess Charles made, and then she raised her head and glared at him.
Raising his eyebrows, Charles said, "Yes, I am hateful. But as long as the children don't object, I plan to continue to be hateful."
After saying that, Charles turned to the children and asked, "Children, do you also want me to keep Mommy?"
"Daddy, you are right. We vote for you one hundred times and hope you can keep Mommy here." It was Nadia who answered first, thinking that if her mother stayed, then she wouldn’t have to make a difficult choice.
She didn't want to leave neither her father nor her mother.
The two kids looked at Charles with a smile and approval in their eyes.
"You two are good. You colluded with your father to bully me, huh?" The anger Nancy felt made her take a deep breath to calm herself down. "Okay, I don't want this luggage. I’ll go now, and the two of you stay with your father."
As soon as she finished her words, Nancy walked out of the room.
"Things are not going well!" Bobby said in a low voice. It seemed that they had pissed his Mommy off. His mommy didn’t care about them anymore and left by herself.
"Daddy, what should we do?" Nadia asked anxiously.
"You two get in the car. I'll handle the rest." As he spoke, Charles’ eyes were locked on Nancy’s back, as if she would disappear if he blinked.
Reluctant, Bobby held his stomach and said, "We haven't had breakfast yet, Daddy."
"Do you want to have breakfast or your Mommy?" The breakfast was ready, but it was impossible to have breakfast in this situation.
Therefore, the two kids sighed and answered at the same time, "Of course we want Mommy."
"Then forget about breakfast." Afraid that it would be too late, Charles ran after Nancy.
The two kids grabbed their schoolbags and followed them out. "Alas, we're so poor."
Feeling helpless, Bobby sighed.
"Yes, we are too pitiful. We have a naughty Mommy." At this moment, Nadia was melancholy. But what could they do? They were just kids.
"Let's go. I hope Daddy will buy us something to eat on the way." The two kids ran out while talking.
When they got out of the house, they saw Charles holding Nancy's arm, pushing her into the car. "If you want to leave, you have to wait until I send the children to the kindergarten first."
"You mean I can leave after the kids go to the kindergarten?" Nancy asked curiously.
"I didn't say that." Holding the car’s door, Charles waved at the two children who were running over.
"Daddy, we are here." In a hurry, Bobby and Nadia got into the car.
The next second, Charles was already in the driver’s seat.
On their way to the kindergarten, the two children carefully looked at Nancy's cold face.
All of a sudden, Bobby whispered, "Mommy, we really love you so much."
"Yes, Mommy. We think Daddy loves you too," Nadia echoed.
"That's what you think. But I don’t think so." All Nancy could think about now was Nana. How could she have the time to think about whether Charles loved her or not?
