Sweet Twins

Chapter 636 Support His Work

"I don't have time." Charles always felt that Nancy's smile was too weird. Actually, since he came back with the children, Nancy had started behaving strangely.

Nancy was not angry. In fact, she was very gentle. What was going on?

Did she figure it out? Was she willing to just be a housewife and raise their children while supporting her husband as he worked for them? Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

But the question is, was Nancy a woman of obedience?

How could she let go of her ideals and her patients?

Charles had guessed randomly. His eyes wandered, so he did not look at the document.

"Well... How about I sing you a song right now? Haven't you heard me sing?" Nancy asked playfully.

Charles got even more confused. He had no idea what Nancy was trying to do.

"Nancy, do you really not care that I'm practically imprisoning you here at home?" Charles asked Nancy while squinting his eyes.

"I do care, very much so. Think about it. I have a lot of patients waiting for me to come back. How can I just forget about that? And besides, as the one having the highest authority at the hospital, you won't be that harsh to your subordinates, will you? How can I stay at home all day long? It's just not fitting, you know. What I think is that you just didn't like the fact that I had dinner with Rick... Achoo!" She rubbed her nose and continued, saying, "Charles, my darling, I did have dinner with Rick. It's true. However, the hug that we shared in that photo is too misleading. I love you. Didn't you know that?"

Charles shrugged a little and said, "Ah, but didn't you say that you like Rick? There is no woman in the world who would not like a man like him. And now you're telling me that you love me. Nancy, please tell

me now which of your words are true and which ones are just lies?"

"It's all true... Ahem... Well, not entirely. It is true that I love you. It's not true that I like Rick. Do you want me to like him?" Nancy asked in a calm voice while looking at Charles' gloomy face.

"What if I never let you go back to work?" Charles asked tentatively.

He was so vexed that day that he trapped Nancy at home and asked someone to take over her position in the hospital. Nancy should have known it by now. Why didn't she mention it?

Was it that she was just pretending not to know anything and that she was just hoping to be able to get to work the next day or maybe even a few days and still be the director of the pediatric department?

"If you don't want me to work, then I won't. I will just stay here at home." She nodded a little. "That's fine by me, Charles," Nancy said and smiled indifferently.

Charles was taken aback. Was this even the Nancy he knew?

He was just so baffled.

"Nancy, what's your plan?" The more Nancy didn't seem to care, the more nervous Charles felt. He was afraid what was going to happen next!

"What's wrong, Charles? Did you forget that you locked me up at home? I will now fulfill that little fantasy of yours. I will cook for you, serve you, and take care of the children. What is not clicking? Are you having a fever?" Nancy said with a hint of sarcasm in her tone and touched Charles' forehead. His temperature was normal. "I know you have a problem with your mental health just like Nana. How about I ask Rick to check on you?"

"Hell no!" Charles wanted to kill when he heard his name. Not to mention that Nancy was even the one who thought of inviting him over.

It would drive Charles crazy!

"Nancy, stop this madness and go to bed right now!" Charles roared. He felt that Nancy was being too much already.

"You really are something else, Charles. You have trapped me at home and yet I have just fulfilled your wish, but now it seems that you don't like how things are anymore. Tell me, Charles, what on earth do you want me to do to satisfy you?" said Nancy sadly.

"Would you be willing to leave your job and stay at home with our children?" Charles asked in disbelief.

This was what he had hoped for, all along, but how could he believe that Nancy would actually agree to such arrangement?

His thoughts were scattered all over the place. The more he wanted to see through Nancy, the more confused he became.

"Of course, I want to stay at home with our children and with you to be the good mother and wife that I am," said Nancy while slowly rubbing Charles' shoulders.

"Shall we get registered for marriage then?" Charles was being true to his words and wishes this time but he was also trying to test if Nancy was indeed willing to quit her job to stay with him and their kids and that she had nothing to do with Rick.

Undoubtedly, it would be best if they would just decide to tie the knot after all those years.

If Nancy refused, then everything that she had been showing him would have been just out of sheer deception. Charles wouldn't believe her easily.

"My household register was burned by my father. I never expected him to do such an irrational thing. New Year's Day is coming and it isn't that easy to get a new one. So, even if I tell you I'd be willing to

register with you, I will have to wait for our new household register to be made," said Nancy without a pause.

Her voice was monotonous and steady

but she just stated a fact.

"Well, I'm just glad that you can understand what the most important thing in your life is. Nancy, let's just stay together from now on, shall we?" Now that Nancy had compromised with and shown her kindness, there was no need for Charles to have airs anymore. As for the future development, it depended on Nancy.

"Alright then, come over here," Nancy said and stretched out her hands to invite him.

How could Charles resist her? More so, with a smile on her face, Charles found her presence so bewitching.

All his defenses and speculations disappeared in an instant.

Charles held her hands and lifted her up with his long and lean arms the next second. "Nancy, I don't care whether you are sincere or not. I want you tonight."

"Did you hear what you just said? Even for the sake of our children, I will never pretend to be nice to you. How can you not believe me?" asked Nancy with a frown upon her face.

"I trust you, Nancy. Remember, you shouldn't let me down at any time," Charles warned.

He still couldn't restrain his overbearing nature.

Nancy smiled and asked, "Are we still a couple then?"

"What do you think?" Charles asked.

"A couple should have trust in each other, right?" With a frivolous smile, Nancy unbuttoned Charles' clothes.

"It's not that I don't trust you. I know you very well. You're not the one taking initiative at all. That's not like you." Charles exposed Nancy's lie straightforwardly.

Obviously, she had her ulterior motives. If she didn't, why did she fawn over Charles.

She didn't mean to please him. She just wanted to torture him.

She wanted to start a mess with him that he got angry at the sight of her and kicked her out of the villa.

It was only after Nancy left that she was able to achieve her goal.

The war between her and Charles had just begun!

"Then how am I like?" Nancy stared at Charles with fire in her eyes.
