The Adorable Twin’s Sticky Daddy novel Chapter 104

"Now is not the time to ask questions about love. You better think of a way to make Charles let go of us!" Caspar boasted an irate look as he scolded Fannie.

"What do you mean? I'm not going to ask Nancy for help! God, no!" Despise was written all over her face as she cursed those words like a spell.

"Are you an idiot?! I didn't exactly ask you to do that!" This time, Caspar aggressively rubbed his temple, trying to think of a solution. After pausing for a while, he continued, "Maybe we can still have a chance if dad and mom agree to help us!"

"What are you thinking? Are you going to sell out the shares I just gained?! What?! No way! I went through significant measures just to get my hands on them!" Fannie gritted her teeth in disbelief. There was no way he'd let Caspar do what he was thinking!

Seeing as how delusional and desperate Fannie was, he tried to knock some sense into her. Raising his hand, he landed a slap on her face and uttered, "Fannie Ning, if you dare to do against Nancy, I'm sure you'll be dead in less than a month. Just think about it!" Although Caspar did exaggerate a little, we weren't really lying at all. He knew Charles would do anything in his power to protect Nancy, and if that happened, they would be at a disadvantage.

So instead of trying to persuade Fannie in her deranged state, he got in his car and drove off, leaving the former behind. "Hey! You son of a bitch!" Left in utter disbelief, Fannie stamped her feet in anger all the while she tried to hail a taxi to go home.

When she got back, Jill was surprised to see the look on her daughter's face.

"Fannie, what's wrong with you?" she asked, staring at her red cheeks while wearing a long face.

"Caspar slapped me! That jerk!" Fannie cursed, covering her right cheek with her palm.

"Damn it! Why did he hit you? Tell me! I'll chop his hand off!" As her mother, Jill had never inflicted any physical injury to Fannie, let alone some man! How could she not be enraged with this?

So, to soothe her mother's mood, Fannie immediately explained everything.

"Just as I thought. Something like this happened because you've gone too far. And now you're telling me to go and be Nancy? How could I be so shameless?!" Even Clark, who was sitting in the wheelchair, couldn't help but lash out.

"Shame is not important! I just need the stocks!" Fannie snapped at her father, arching her brows to showcase her irritation. Then, she turned to Jill and asked, "Mom, what should I do? What if Charles goes against us?"

"Your life is more important. Are you willing to give it up just for the money, Fannie?!" questioned Clark. His daughter might be cunning and inherently greedy, but Clark still cared about her safety. So, although he would seldom get mad, he couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Stop shouting! Can't you see? She already knows she's in trouble. Let's go and beg Nancy. Tell her we'll give her our shares in exchange for your safety," Jill suggested, finally realizing how grave the situation was. More than that, they knew Charles wouldn't let them go the second he learned about what they'd done.

"What?! No, mom! It's not up to Nancy. It's Charles we need to please, not her!" Fannie retorted, still unwilling to lower her pride to her half-sister.

Had it not been for Nancy, Charles wouldn't know who we are. So technically, it's really that woman's fault! And for the sake of our daughter, we need to find Nancy and try begging her for help," Jill snarled. She almost swallowed her pride while saying those words.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but this will be the last time!" Recognizing how helpless he was in this situation, Clark could only agree one last time.

So, when he and Jill barged in the sanatorium, Nancy was caught in utter surprise. They were the last people she was expecting to visit.

More than that, Nancy just didn't want to see them, especially now that her mother had fallen into a coma.

"Nancy, we heard that your mother was ill, so we came to personally check on her." With the softest voice she could muster, Jill pretended to be worried as if she hadn't viciously walked in here yesterday.

But her facade didn't work on Nancy. After all, the latter had already been informed of what had tragically happened yesterday in the same room. "You did this, didn't you?! How dare you come here and attack my ill mother! You heartless being! Don't you have any conscience?! How could you sleep at night, huh?!"

Nancy couldn't refrain herself from flaring up. She was usually a very calm person, but since they did this to her mother, she couldn't just stay silent and do nothing. Perhaps it was the seething anger in Nancy's eyes, but Jill suddenly felt a pang in her heart. 'Am I really that evil? I only did that because of the shares!'

Reflecting on what happened and thinking about the shares, Jill couldn't help crying.

"Oh, I really didn't know Jade would suffer so much. I'm so sorry! I'll return the shares to you, Nancy! Please forgive us." After summoning up all her pride to beg, Jill reluctantly took out the deal with Jade's forced fingerprint.

"This is my mother's in the first place! You've really gone too far this time, Jill! If my mother can recover, I'd rather not have the shares." Standing beside her bedridden mother, Nancy pierced her sharp eyes through Jill.

But the latter seemed unaffected. In fact, she even kept winking at Clark to signal his cue in their grand facade.

So, decoding his wife's non-verbal cue, Clark uttered with a heavy sigh, "Nancy, forgive your aunt. We all know we did wrong."

"You have made too many mistakes, and every time, you just never learn to repent. So, what makes you think I'll believe you this time?!" The coldness in Nancy's voice made it clear that the two would never get what they wanted.

And in a desperate attempt, Jill took Nancy's hand and slapped herself in the face.
