Chapter 200 Hesitant
Therefore, when Doris asked Jay to cut her toenails, he agreed without hesitation.
"Jay, Nancy and I are going to a class reunion tomorrow evening," Doris said casually.
"You just left the hospital. Is it okay?" Jay was aware that pregnant women were prone to getting too sentimental.
And now that Doris was pregnant, he wasn't too sure about letting her attending the party.
"Why? Nancy is a doctor. You can rest assured when I'm with her," Doris said stubbornly.
"Well, you can call Nancy. If she goes, you can go. If she doesn't, you don't have to go either!" If Nancy was with Doris, Jay felt more assured of her safety. If Nancy didn't go, and Doris remained stubborn about going, then he could only escort her in person.
In Jay's eyes, the current Doris was like an ever so delicate infant in his palms.
"Okay, I'll call her right now." Doris called Nancy, told her the entire story, and waited expectantly for her answer.
Nancy looked at Charles questioningly.
Charles looked at Nancy's foot and said, "If you feel that your foot has recovered, you can go. If it isn't, then you can only refuse."
Unlike Doris, Nancy didn't like to attend parties, but she didn't want to disappoint her.
So she hesitated.
Seeing that Nancy didn't answer her question, Doris became anxious. "Alas, Nancy, we haven't seen our classmates for so many years now. Since they invited us, and if we don't go, won't they laugh at us?" "Well, okay. I'll go with you," agreed Nancy.
"Okay, it's a deal. Let's go together tomorrow!" Doris said happily.
"Okay, let's go together," said Nancy and couldn't help but break a smile.
Sometimes, this careless and wayward girl was just like a child.
"I'll drive you there tomorrow, okay?" Charles proposed.
"No, thanks. You are involved in a lot of gossips now. It's just a joke for them. You'd better not go. They will mock you, so you better stay." Nancy had been trying not to appear in public with Charles. So, she didn't want Charles to be at the party.
Women at the party would surely have vicious mouths.
"Nancy," Charles called softly.
"Well..." Charles was about to say something but stopped on second thought.
Confused, Nancy asked, "What's wrong, Charles? It's so late. Aren't you going to bed? I have to go to work tomorrow. You have to pick up the children. You must take good care of them. I don't want anything to harm their safety."
Charles gently took her into his arms and said, "Nancy, I won't and don't have a scandal with any woman except you. Don't say these words to irritate me."
As he spoke, he pinched her nose, pretending to be angry.
The way he spoiled her made her a little awkward.
As far as she knew, Charles was overbearing. Even when he was trying to be gentle, there was always a commanding undertone.
Nancy felt Charles was being strange.
"Well, it's late. Let's go to bed."
Anyhow, Nancy was in no mood to continue with the drawing.
Even though the truth was right in front of her eyes, Nancy still couldn't figure out just what it was that she was trying to avoid.
What was the difference between it being revealed earlier or later?
"Of course, we will sleep. But we still haven't finished the task given by the kids," Charles said with a playfully evil smile.
Hearing what Charles said, Nancy blushed. Of course, she knew what he meant.
Bobby and Nadia wanted her to get pregnant within a month.
It was just a child's talk. Charles shouldn't have taken it seriously!
Or he just wanted to take advantage of her!
"Stop it. How can you take the children's words seriously? If I really get pregnant now, your parents will kill me," Nancy said in a half-serious and half-joking tone.
The more Nancy thought about it, the more she felt that the Fu family was too complicated. Sometimes, she couldn't even understand Frederic.
Fredric would be nice to Nancy occasionally, but most of the time, he didn't like her.
For some reason, every time Frederic talked to her, he would always stop mid-sentence, never completing what he wanted to say.
It made Nancy more frustrated.
Consequently, except for Bobby and Charles, Nancy didn't want to see anyone from the Fu family.
Especially Joseph!
A hint of cruelty flashed through Charles' eyes. He said overbearingly, "Nancy, you are my woman. I won't allow anyone to hurt you. How many more times do I have to tell you before you believe me? You just don't have a sense of security and confidence in yourself. Even though you are a smart and flexible woman, sometimes I really don't understand what you are escaping from. If there is a problem, we just need to face it together. There is nothing that we can't overcome together, is there?"
Charles' aggressive words made Nancy speechless.
Nancy was full of confidence in her heart. But in the face of Charles, all her confidence and pride just went out the window.
Nancy had speculated about it more than once. Why was she like this?
After all, it was five years ago. Nancy still couldn't let go of the matter about giving birth to children for the Fu family.
"Charles, go to bed early. You have to go to the company, and I also have two operations scheduled tomorrow," said Nancy lazily.
"Yes, I want to sleep." Charles lifted the comforter, held Nancy's hand, and pushed her hard. Next, she fell on the bed with Charles on top of her.
"Ah!" Although it didn't hurt, Nancy still exclaimed, "Charles, what are you doing?"
Nancy was sleepy. She was in no mood to do anything, let alone sex. She only desired one thing right nowsleep.
Although at this time, Charles didn't seem to be sleepy at all. With mirth swimming in his obsidian eyes, he said, "We can't fail the task given by our children. We have to try our best!"
"What a rogue! I've already said that you can't take their words seriously."
"Oh, apologies, madame. But I take requests made by my children quite seriously!" Since Nancy called Charles a rogue, he could only show her what a true rogue was like.
He liked the way she was angry. She pursed her lips and blushed. Charles loved it when Nancy would go red like a cherry from anger. Pursing her lips while blushing -now that was just too seductive. Nancy acting so shy and cute was just like a necessary evil for Charles.
"Are you three years old?" Nancy was indeed very angry. She pushed Charles away subconsciously.
However, Nancy couldn't move Charles at all as he held her within his arms in the most overbearing way.
"Nancy, it's okay to fulfil the children's wishes." Charles continued to brainwash her.
Nancy was speechless. This man was playing dumb. She had no idea what to do next!
"Do you really want me?"
"Yes, I really want you." Charles' voice was so seductive that it circled around Nancy's ear like a melody. Nancy felt as if her heart was itching.
