The Adorable Twin’s Sticky Daddy novel Chapter 86

Charles remained silent all the while they were walking out of the ward.

Waiting for them outside was a nanny van that Jay drove.

After getting in, they immediately head straight to the Fu household.

Angelina had already known that Charles would be discharged from the hospital today, but she wasn't excited at all. So, instead of welcoming him with open arms, she chose not to welcome them by the door.

"Grandma, we are back!" Bobby yelled excitingly, rushing in the living room while holding Charles' suit.

"I know you are back," Angelina uttered with an indifferent tone, but she could not remain calm when she saw Nancy and Nadia. "Charles, what is the meaning of this?! Why are they back with you?!"

"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Fu. I thought that Charles might need someone to take care of him, so I brought Nancy here. She is a doctor, you know." Jay came in, wearing a polite smile while pushing Charles in the wheelchair.

"He just broke his bone. Can't I take care of him?" Angelina's voice was filled with contempt while her disdainful eyes bore at Nadia and Nancy.

"Mom, just take care of yourself. I need Nancy to look after me." As impatience grew on him, Charles immediately refused his mother's help.

"Daddy is right! We need mommy here!" echoed Bobby, wrapping himself on Nancy's arms as if preventing the latter from leaving.

Meanwhile, nervousness coated Nadia as she gazed at the matriarch of the family and saw how she was looking at her.

"Call her grandma," Charles suddenly whispered to her, noticing as how reluctant she was at that moment.

"Hello, Grandma!" Nadia said in a soft voice.

A look of disbelief flashed across the old woman's face as Nadia spoke. "Good! Great! Just great!" Angelina muttered, obviously enraged at how all of them were ganging up on her. She was eldest one around, and yet none of them were polite enough to listen.

"Auntie Angelina, when Charles recovers, Nadia and I will leave immediately! I promise!" Noticing as how the lady's brows aggressively furrowed, Nancy was quick to say something in a good temper. She wanted to ease whatever tension that was slowly building in the room.

"Come on! I've heard a lot of excuses like this from you. I've never had a wound on my forehead, and Charles never had a bone fractured before you showed up. Tell me, why are you still here?" The hint of disgust in Angelina's voice was obvious.

"Mom, stop nagging, or I will move out with my children. Would you really want that?" Charles threatened in a cold voice, his eyebrows knitted. He, too, was growing impatient at how stubbornly irrational his mother was.

"You want to abandon me?! Because of them?!" This time, Angelina couldn't refrain herself from lashing out. Her son's threat hit the last straw of her patience.

"No! I want to live with grandma. Grandma is the best," Bobby cried, pouting his lips. Seeing Angelina's flaring nostrils, widened sharp eyes, and arched brows, Nadia recalled how Flora would horribly look the same whenever she was mad.

And unlike before, Nadia knew exactly what to do in such situations. So, blinking her eyes, she approached the old woman and shook her arms gently. With a pitiful face hard to resist, she raised her head and intently eyed the lady.

For a while, Angelina was stunned, even almost jolting at the young girl's soft touch. But after a few moments passed, she felt less angry somehow. Perhaps Nadia's charms worked on the stern woman.

"Girl, you are cuter than your mommy," the matriarch uttered with a soft tone.

"Grandma, mommy gave birth to me," the young girl replied, smiling. Then she continued and asked, "Grandma, why do you think my mom isn't cute? I can ask her to change!"

With such a soft and innocent voice interrogating the old lady, everyone suddenly turned to look at Angelina, who felt a little embarrassed at that question.

She found Nancy elegant and decent, quite remarkably different from other women if she was, to tell the truth. In fact, she could not seem to pick out any fault on her.

"Well, uh...well..." Cocking her head, Angelina struggled to gather the right words to say.

"It's because she thinks no woman is better than her. So, you can go back now, Jay. Thanks for driving," Charles uttered. Then, he eyed Nancy and said, "Please send me back to my room."

"Got it!" she replied with a sly smile, grabbing the back of the wheelchair. "Sister-in-law, aunt always talks like this. Don't take her words seriously. She will forget it later," Jay uttered in a low voice.

"It's okay. I don't mind," Nancy reassured. After spending some time in this household, she had grown immune to the old woman's attitude. In fact, it didn't bother her at all anymore.

"Dear babies, I have to go now. I'll treat you to a nice lunch one of these days!" Jay threw the kids a soft kiss.

"Kisses, Uncle Jay! Bye!" Nadia answered cutely, giggling at how silly Jay looked.

As for Bobby, he just kept silent with a straight face as Jay stormed out of the house.

After Jay left, Nancy immediately guided Charles upstairs to get some rest.

"Don't follow them, babies!" After being treated coldly and seeing that the kids were about to leave her alone, Angelina felt even more depressed. So, she called them back to keep her company.

"Grandma, what's up?" Nadia asked politely, turning back.

"Come back here and sit with your grandma." Angelina waved her hand and tapped the cushion beside her.

So, Nadia grabbed Bobby's hand, and sweetly suggested, "Let's go and accompany Grandma."
