Sweet Twins novel Chapter 20

Jay watched Nancy walk away and then he turned to Marcus. "Are you out of your mind? Mess with anyone you want, but never mess with the woman that Charles likes. That's asking for trouble."

"My apologies, Mr. Fang. How was I to know that the woman before me is Mr. Fu's favorite? I am truly sorry. That was wrong of me. Please forgive me," Marcus apologized humbly.

"Sheez," Jay sighed and shook his head. "Let's just go. It's too late for you to do anything about it now. If you have any further regrets, just go to the police station," Jay said to Marcus.

Nancy stared blankly out the window as she silently sat inside Charles' car. She was visibly in a state of shock.

"What's wrong?" Charles asked flatly.

"I came here for fun and met a bastard instead," Nancy replied casually.

But Charles was an observant man and he could tell if she was lying or not.

His eyes remained looking straight ahead. They looked emotionless and uncaring as he remained silent.

He felt bothered, as he suspected that Nancy was hiding something from him.

"What do you want to do? Go for a walk, watch a movie together or go home?" Charles asked in a hopeful tone of voice even though his face remained expressionless.

But since she still couldn't find her daughter, she wasn't interested in doing anything else.

The only thing that she wanted to do was to just go home, take a warm shower and then rest. She would plan for what else to do the next day.

"I just want to go home, Mr. Fu," Nancy replied nonchalantly.

The memory of getting her clothes stripped by the man beside her made her reflexively cover her breast area without realizing it.

She thought that it was best if she kept her distance from him.

Charles gritted his teeth behind tightly pressed lips that reflected his displeasure. He was visibly upset about something and he was doing everything he could not to suddenly burst out. There was nothing in the world that he wanted to do more than to hold her close to him and show her how much he loved her, but her rejection of him broke his heart to a thousand pieces. He turned to her and sneered at her like only a scorned lover could. "Tell me why. Why would you go alone to a bar like Shades but do not want to see a movie with me?"

Charles asked as displeasure echoed in his voice. He was so gentle with her when he spoke with her mere minutes ago. But his face now looked so grim and uncaring after she refused him.

But she felt so disappointed that she didn't want to talk with him or with anyone.

Charles drove to Nancy's apartment in silence as frustration gripped his heart.

Then without warning, his phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Angelina, Bobby's grandmother.

"Charles, you need to get back right now. Bobby is in a fit. I can't do anything to calm him down. Please get back as soon as you can." Angelina felt completely helpless watching Bobby throw a fit.

Bobby almost caught a cold because of her negligence the last time she was with him. So, she didn't dare to be careless again this time. But Bobby still suddenly became unruly.

"Why? What happened?" Charles asked impatiently.

"I have no idea. It just happened all of a sudden. Bobby kept saying that he wanted Daddy and Mommy. He sounded frustrated that he has no mother at all!" Angelina sighed helplessly.

As soon as she finished her words, Bobby threw a plate full of honeyed pineapple to the floor without warning.

Angelina was almost in tears when the loud crashing sound startled her. "What on earth is wrong with you, Bobby? Why are you suddenly like this?"

But Bobby didn't just threw a tantrum all of a sudden without reason.

The last time that Bobby had a tantrum was because Angelina didn't let him see Nancy.

But this time it was different.

It was because of a call between Angelina and Dorothy.

After Charles left, Angelina started asking him uncomfortable questions that made Bobby feel agitated.

"Honey, tell Grandma, is your Daddy hanging out with other women these days?"
