The Adorable Twin’s Sticky Daddy novel Chapter 371

Nancy suddenly felt sorry for Charles. "It must be very hard for you."

Charles looked at Nancy in a daze, and then smiled, "I'm a man who has been in the business for years. I don't think this counts as hard."

Although he denied it, it felt good to be appreciated by Nancy.

Charles was very exhausted. He fell asleep soon after he lay down.

Worried about Edward, Nancy tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. She didn't want to disturb Charles' rest so she put on clothes and left the room.

She tiptoed to Edward's room and heard his voice coming from inside.

With her heart hanging in her throat, she gently knocked on the door. "Edward, is there something wrong?"

Edward groaned but didn't answer.

Nancy pushed the door open and entered the room. When she turned on the light, she saw Edward curling up on the bed, grimacing in pain.

Nancy walked over to him and placed her hand on his forehead. "Edward, you seem to have a fever!"

"Nancy, I just... I just feel a little cold." Edward reached out and grabbed Nancy's hand.

"Edward, your hands are cold and your forehead is hot. Let me get you some medicine," said Nancy anxiously.

'Tm fine. There's no anti-inflammatory drugs or antipyretics in the house right now. And it's late; the pharmacy has closed. Please just stay with me," Edward murmured like a child.

This was the first time that Nancy had seen Edward looking so fragile.

She always thought of him as invincible, but seeing him like that showed that he really was not!

Nancy brought another quilt for Edward and wrapped it around him. She then sat down beside his bed and tightly held his hands.

Edward was still cold, but after a while, his hands gradually warmed up.

"Nancy, it's so good to have you here!" Edward said gladly.

Nancy smiled at him. "Edward, get a good night's sleep. You'll be fine in a while."

Edward took a deep breath and said nothing.

Nancy looked at Edward, whose face had stubble. He was a good-looking man. Occasionally, Edward would say something that puzzled her. "Nancy, do you think I am handsome?"

"Nancy, will you be happy if the two of us got married?"

"Nancy, you are so beautiful today!"

Recalling memories from the past, Nancy felt her eyes burning. Tears started to stroll down her cheeks.

Edward sighed, almost inaudible. Yes, he could remember all those wonderful moments they shared, but in the end, he still lost her!

When sleeping, Charles had a habit of searching for Nancy's hand everytime he turned over. As soon as he got a hold of her hand, he immediately fell back to sleep.

He did the same tonight, but when he reached out his hand, there was nothing but empty sheets.

Charles sat up with a start. By this time, the sky had turned pale. Under the gray light, he saw that Nancy was not beside him.

Well, where did she go?

Edward... Could it be? 'Nancy, I know that you have worried about Edward's wound, but you shouldn't go to his room at night.

You could go, but you shouldn't do it in secret.

Are you afraid that I would be jealous?'

Charles' heart skipped a beat. Indeed, he felt jealous.

A little upset, he walked out of the bedroom and walked over to Edward's door.
