Sweet Twins novel Chapter 533

It was Jay's task to record what Derrick had said.

Sooner or later, Derrick would pay for what he had done. But now was not the right time, so Charles wasn't planning to actually pour hot water on Derrick's head.

Charles pushed Derrick away and said, "Here's your phone. Call David here."

With his forehead creased, Derrick whispered, "You can find him yourself. Why do you ask me to call him here?"

The reason why Charles asked him to summon David was because he wanted them to confront each other on the spot. In that way, they would blame each other and ruin their relationship. Besides, Charles needed to hear the other side of the story to understand what was really going on.

Frightened, Derrick swallowed the lump on his throat. 'What a cruel man!'

It seemed like Charles had many ways to torment him.

"Just do as I say!" Seeing the hesitation on Derrick's face, Jay kicked his butt hard again.

Wincing in pain, Derrick shouted, "Ouch, wait, wait..."

"I'm waiting for you to call David now. Don't waste any time. Hurry up!" Clenching his teeth, Jay took the thermos bottle from Charles' hand and said, "You don't have the heart to do it, do you? Let me do it! I have the heart to do it!"

As Jay spoke, he raised the thermos bottle too high and the hot water began to drop.

"Ouch, you bastard, it's just a phone call. I'll call him. Take the thermos bottle away quickly!" Since Derrick had no any connection with Jay, he knew that it was easy for him to do it.

"Just call!" Knowing that Derrick was a cruel and cunning man, Jay forced him to call David immediately. He might be plotting something bad as he dragged.

In the end, Derrick was left without a choice but to dial David's number.

As he pressed the phone against his ear, he prayed in his heart over and over again that David wouldn't answer the call.

Fortunately for Derrick, David had already turned off his phone a few days ago. He had done something that could be found out by Charles sooner or later, so David directly turned off his phone and found a place to hide.

On his first attempt, Derrick failed to get through, which made Derrick very happy. Then he pretended to call David several times more, but to no avail.

"As you can see, I've tried to call him multiple times but no one was answering. Maybe it's because David is busy, or maybe he's not at home. Alas, maybe it's because he has nothing to do with Nancy's disappearance!" At this moment, Derrick was so confident that he even raised his voice.

Hearing this, Jay looked at Charles and asked, "Where will David go?"

How could Charles know? In the past few days, Charles had been as busy as a spinning top. He looked for a doctor to treat his grandfather, while searching for Nancy and taking care of the two children.

Silence filled the room as Charles thought why David was suddenly out of reach.

Just then, Charles' phone rang.

It was a call from Edward.

As soon as he saw the news about Nancy today, he immediately called Charles.

Listlessly, Charles answered the phone, but he didn't say anything.

After all, he knew that Edward called for Nancy. How should he tell Edward that he didn't even know where she was?

Seconds had passed but Charles still didn't talk, so Edward asked, "It's said that you have another woman and you ruined Nancy on purpose. Is that true?"

At first, Edward didn't believe that Charles would do such a thing, but the media exaggerated it.

There were too many fake news, that people had been confused about what was true and what was not.

In the end, the truth and the lies were mixed up.

Frowning, Charles asked back, "You believe that?"

"I don't believe it. But tell me, where is Nancy?" As long as Nancy was okay, Edward wouldn't care about what other people were saying.

Although Edward was abroad and he had a woman who looked similar to Nancy, he had never forgotten Nancy and the children.

The memory would be rooted in his heart, and it could not be pulled out.

After a short pause, Charles replied, "I'm looking for her."

His answer only made Edward sneer. "You mean you don't know where Nancy is right now?"

"Yes."

"You bastard, what did you say when I left? You said you would protect Nancy and the children at all costs. You don't know where Nancy is now. Why are you still so confident? If you don't love her, you can give her back to me. Do you hear me?" The way Charles answered made Edward furious that he paced in the garden.

He just hoped that Nancy and the children would be fine. That was all he asked.

Because Edward loved Nancy too much, he let her stay by Charles' side, knowing that she loved him so much. Edward gave way and sacrificed his love for them to be happy.

But now, Edward was beginning to doubt Nancy's choice. It seemed that Charles didn't love her more than he did.

Otherwise, he would never be so calm to say, "Yes," when Nancy was missing.

How could Charles be so calm?

"Charles, do you love Nancy?" Edward growled.

"I love her more than you do!" Frustration was evident in Charles' voice.

"You love her, but you lost her. Is this how you love? Love is about care, protection and keeping her by your side. Where is she now? Tell me, where is she?" The more Edward asked, the more frustrated Charles felt.

His words were like a sharp knives stabbing into Charles' heart.

Trying to contain his anger, Charles clenched his fists and said, "Edward, I'm more anxious than you. Please trust me. I've been looking for Nancy, but it's not as simple as you think. I'm sorry, I haven't found her yet."

"If I'm not mistaken, Nancy has been missing for three days. Three days... Well, Charles, have you ever thought about what kind of situation Nancy has faced for such a long time? Others' insults, coercion, or..." As he spoke, Edward felt goose bumps all over his body, so didn't dare to say anything more.

Right now, he was really afraid that something bad had happened to Nancy.

If fate would be so unkind to let that happen, he would kill Charles.

"Nancy must be fine! She must be fine!" It was more like Charles was convincing himself than Edward.

Anyway, he would never allow anything bad to happen to Nancy.

While Charles was on the phone, Derrick was busy observing him. When he saw Charles' pained expression as he talked about Nancy, Derrick was overjoyed.

So Derrick said, "Charles, Nancy has been missing for quite a while now, and maybe she's already dead. She is not in this world now. Don't bother to look for her. Besides, there are still plenty of women in this world. If you want to, I can find another one for you. I promise to find one that is one thousand times better than Nancy, no, ten thousand times better than Nancy. What do you think?"

The words Derrick had said seemed like an invitation to beat him up.

Before Derrick could finish his words, Charles' palm already landed on his face. "Derrick, are you courting death?"

Derrick knew that what he said would certainly irritate Charles, but Derrick didn't expect that Charles would slap him.
