The Adorable Twin’s Sticky Daddy novel Chapter 113

After Ethan left, Nancy's shoulders slouched forward as she dropped her eyes to the floor. How did she end up here? She released a heavy defeated sigh before picking up her clothes and putting them on.

Fannie and Doris came in at that moment. They looked at Nancy worriedly for a moment before Fannie broke the silence. "Nancy, I know that you think I am the one behind this unfortunate incident. But trust me, sister. I am not. I don't know who did all this but the only way we can find this out is if we seek a police investigation. Let's call the police and sort out the matter. This is the only way we can find out who was behind everything that took place. Besides, it'll remove your doubts and prove my innocence," Fannie suggested. But she was far from calm. She said all of that gritting her teeth, while trying to keep her calm.

The unfortunate incident had spread through the internet at breakneck speed. Nancy feared now that everyone knew, people on the Internet must be blaming her for all that happened.

If she went out now, she would face everyone's wrath if anything.

"I'll call the police," Doris quietly informed before calling the police.

There was no other way to solve the issue now. The matter had already spread, and they would only be helped if they went to seek legal help.

After the call they were asked to pay a visit to the police station. So, Doris and Nancy went to the police station to lodge a record of the incident. Then they went to the nursing home.

Nancy wore a sad face all the way to the nursing home. She was breaking inside. Her entire body was cold and shivering often whenever the flash of that unfortunate incident was flashing through her mind. She felt like falling into hell.

Doris noticed Nancy's saddened state. It worried her to look at her. "How about I stay?" Doris offered politely.

But Nancy refused right away. "No, Doris. It's alright. Don't worry about me." Nancy managed a forced smile at Doris to assure her.

Doris nodded. "Don't hesitate to call me if you need anything. Remember that I'm always with you no matter what." Doris gave a comforting pat on Nancy's shoulder as she said so.

"Yes, I will."

After Doris left, Nancy went to Jade where Nadia was accompanying her. When Jade saw Nancy she tried to speak. "Nancy, Nancy..." But she could only manage to utter Nancy's name in a broken accent.

Although Jade was bedridden, she could easily read the expression Nancy's face held. Nancy wasn't happy.

Which was when Nadia pointed out, "Mommy, Grandma wants to know what happened to you." Nadia was cautious the whole time since the moment Nancy walked in. She didn't want to hurt Nancy so she chose the words carefully to say to her Mommy.

Besides, she wanted to know what happened to Mommy as well. Nancy didn't look happy and that part was clearly noticeable.

"Nothing, my baby." Nancy leaned forward and hugged Nadia in a warm embrace. She needed the warmth of her child for comfort. "I'm fine."

Even though Nancy said she was fine, Nadia wasn't convinced. She knew Nancy wasn't fine. It made her worried.

"I want to call Daddy," Nadia said quietly, sensing the seriousness that hung in the room.

Nancy shook her head denying her, "No. You shouldn't bother Uncle Charles anymore. He is a busy man. He cannot always talk to you."

As Nadia brought up Charles' name, Nancy felt a pang in her heart.

Just recently he had announced their engagement. And now she was stuck in this scandal defaming Charles' name along with herself. Charles must be very angry with the news.

This must be the reason why he hadn't yet called her. He must feel disdainful to call and question her about the incident.

Nancy knew that everything that had happened yesterday was caused by the announcement of Charles' engagement to her. Someone wasn't happy with the news of them getting together.

There were quite a few people who didn't want Charles to marry her. What happened yesterday was a way for some of them to take revenge on her.

Nancy prayed inwardly, that Charles would work out the reason and understand their evil intention.

When Jade's condition stabilized a few hours later, Nancy returned to her work.

However, when she reached the hospital, people threw strange stares at her. It made her feel uneasy. Some of them even avoided her as if she was infected with an untouchable disease.

Jessie however came forward only to spill hurtful words. Her taunting tone was enough to make someone's skin crawl. "You know what Nancy? People cannot escape their destiny. If something meant to happen, you cannot stop it. It is how it is. Distinct people are destined to lead certain kinds of life. That's exactly what happened to you. You had desired beyond your capabilities and now you lost everything." Jessie's words were dripping with sarcasm.

Nancy gave her a tight-lipped smile. If she remained indifferent now that'd be for the best.

"I'd say Dr. Nancy, you marry Ethan. He is also a good person. Think about it like that. If you marry him, all the gossip will die down. No one will have anything to talk about against you," Jessie added, when Nancy didn't say anything.

"Nothing happened between him and me. So, there's nothing anyway to talk about," Nancy countered indifferently. "Besides, I don't love him. Also I don't want to hurt him."

"You are so stubborn, Dr. Nancy!" Jessie shrugged and then she left. Nancy too went back home with Nadia.

It was evident that Jessie was taking pleasure in Nancy's misfortune.

But it didn't affect Nancy. Because it didn't matter to her what someone thought about her. She knew what she was and it was enough for her.

However, as Jessie talked about Ethan, Nancy thought about him. Since the unfortunate, Ethan had disappeared from Nancy's sight. She didn't know where he was right now.

"Mommy, Bobby talked to me today," Nadia suddenly exclaimed, interrupting Nancy's train of thoughts.

"What did he say?" Nancy asked eagerly. She was concerned about Bobby.

"He said that we will be your flower kids when you and Daddy get engaged," Nadia relayed earnestly.

"Do not make up things in your head Nadia. Never again mention this to me. You understand?" Nancy chided Nadia softly.

"I promise Mommy, I am not lying to you. Bobby told me that." Nadia pouted as she said so.

Nancy sighed as she noticed Nadia's sad face before she mumbled, "I won't get engaged to Charles." Her heart shattered into pieces while uttering these words. It ached so furiously that she felt she would faint.

"But, Bobby said that Daddy has been preparing for the engagement. He has personally instructed the seamstresses to make your wedding dress royally beautiful. Also my and Bobby's clothes are also ready." Nadia wanted her Mommy and Daddy to be together as quickly as possible.

"Stop it Nadia. Go, take a shower and go to bed," Nancy scolded Nadia, making the kid pout. When she saw that Nadia had gone upset with her words, she pulled her closer and then took her clothes off. "Honey, don't get upset please. Just don't mention the engagement anymore."

"But," Nadia started but she dared not say anything anymore now that Nancy had asked her not to.
