The Adorable Twin’s Sticky Daddy novel Chapter 144

In one afternoon, Doris still didn't go to the kindergarten to pick up Nadia. This time, it was because Jay didn't want her to.

"My parents want to see you," said Jay.

It was not the first time that Jay mentioned it, but the thought of visiting his parents still made her nervous.

Doris had been making up excuses not to go.

But today, no excuses wouldn't work.

Because it was his grandfather's birthday.

Her eyes were scanning the clothes in front of her.

Thought it was taking her forever to pick which one to wear, Jay didn't seem to mind the time. He just calmly sat on the couch with his legs crossed, keeping himself entertained with his phone.

"What did Nancy do this time? She is on the headline again. This time, she was seen with a man named Jerome." Who is he?" Even though he asked, he didn't seem really interested.

"Her classmate." The cheongsam she was wearing did not suit her daring personality.

Every step she took was like falling.

"Alas, Charles will become preoccupied again." After a while, he tossed the phone beside him.

"I really don't get these two! Why do they claim to love each other, yet they torture one another?" Her furious eyes were now focused on Jay.

"You don't understand. The way how rich people live is complicated. It's not easy to deal with!" It was rare for Jay to look serious. Doris was surprised at his statement because he used to always take things lightly.

He sighed, "Rich people aren't always as happy as they seem to be. They can be miserable too."

Faintly laughing, she glanced at him and said, "You are rich and there are a lot of women around you. You must be the happiest man in the world!"

"Well, that's right. But my concern right now is how I could marry you." Jay burst out laughing. Not because he was not serious about marrying her, but because of her reaction.

Her smile disappeared and her face turned as red as an apple. He was serious just a few minutes ago, and now he was being playful again.

"That's nonsense! I haven't thought about it yet. Look at this one. What do you think of it?" Avoiding the topic, she circled around in front of him, wearing a royal blue dress.

"Well, you look gorgeous regardless of what you wear." The way he stared at her every move had proven how sincere he was. He dated other women before. Just as how he had seen all kinds of dresses. But he was only interested in Doris now. So, no matter what she was wearing, he would still look at her with adoration in his eyes.

That was why he didn't buy her a dress that was worth a million even if he could afford it.

If they were going somewhere for business, he would have bought an expensive dress for her.

But today was just his grandfather's birthday, and there was no need to exert too much effort.

He stood up and held her waist gently as his head lowered down to kiss her.

But Doris turned sideways to dodge it.

"It took me a long time to put on my lipstick. What if you ruin it?" Her voice was unusually soft when she spoke.

It was new to Jay. His heart softened and he almost broke into a smile.

"I... Hey, what are you laughing at, Jay? Hurry up and go. " By faking her irritation, she managed to conceal her true emotions.

In reality, no matter how tough Doris seemed to be, she was still a woman.

Sometimes, a person needed to act strong.

And Doris did it to protect herself and to fight back when someone hurt her.

People believed her facade.

Suddenly, Jay gripped her wrists. Their eyes met when she raised her head.

They got entangled with each other instantly. The desire in their eyes was unmistakable.

"I, I..." Because of the silence, she heard her heart hammering in her chest.
