Dorothy was a close friend of Charles. Additionally, she and Joseph grew up together.
When they were still kids, Dorothy felt closer to Joseph.
As time went by, Joseph and Derrick took the Zhuang family off their business. Due to that incident, Dorothy's parents had pressured her to stop meeting with Joseph.
Since then, she grew even closer to Charles. As the two of them spent more time together, people considered them as a couple.
"Yes, Miss Dorothy. Zhuang don't carelessly believe the words of a mere child," Nancy echoed.
Charles simply gave her a cold glance. However, the faint smile in his eyes made her nervous.
With a cold sweat, Nancy felt a bad premonition in her gut.
During breakfast, both kids kept calling Nancy Mommy as if it was on purpose.
The two children had kept her quite busy. As she took one bottle to one child, she also fed water to the other.
"Well, the kids are already full. This one is for you. Please enjoy it."
As soon as the kids finished their meal, they ran off to wash their hands. Charles then put some delicious food in front of Nancy.
A warm smile accompanied his gentle voice.
However, Dorothy felt loneliness and ache deep in her heart.
"Charles, I really enjoy eating braised prawns." Dorothy looked at Charles with warm eyes. Then, she continued with a flirtatious voice, "Do you remember some time ago, I told you how much I was craving for prawns. It was already midnight on a winter night. Darkness and cold winds filled the streets. However, you still drove halfway through the city just to buy me some prawns. Even to this day, I’m still very touched whenever I remember what you did!"
As Dorothy spoke sincerely, tears started to appear in her beautiful eyes.
"That happened a very long time ago that I have almost forgotten about it. How could you still remember such a thing?" said Charles with a frown.
"I will never forget it! When I was abroad, I've missed you so much. All I could do was reminisce about all those sweet moments we spent together. Charles, those days were incredibly wonderful!" As she gave such a sincere remark, Dorothy smiled happily. However, her tears began to fall like pearls.
Her affectionate look was very pitiful!
Nancy sighed in resignation. Immediately, she realized that Dorothy was willing to use their together memories just to manipulate Charles.
Nonetheless, the two of them would be a perfect match for each other.
Dorothy was gorgeous and belonged to a rich family. On the other hand, Charles had all the luxuries anyone could dream of.
Easily, he could provide anything Dorothy wanted.
Additionally, Dorothy might also give Charles what he wanted.
As for Nancy, she couldn't offer anything to Charles. Aside from Nadia, she had nothing.
"Hush now, Miss Zhuang. Here, please wipe your tears with some tissue." Nancy took a tissue and immediately handed it to Dorothy.
"Thank you." Dorothy took the tissue and sniffed.
"Auntie Dorothy, how old are you? Why are you crying? Aren't you embarrassed to cry? Nadia and I haven't cried for a long time. Adults are not supposed to cry. Are you younger than me and Nadia?" Bobby asked as he frantically entered the dining room.
Initially, he had planned to play with Nadia in the garden. However, he suddenly remembered that his mommy was in the dining room. With great concern, Bobby feared that Nancy might get bullied by Dorothy.
As such, he immediately ran towards her.
Surprisingly, all he saw was Dorothy in tears.
When he saw her sad face, Bobby asked innocently.
"No, Bobby. I'm just sad. Don't mind me. You're still too young to understand what I'm going through!" Dorothy sobbed.
However, Bobby just shook his head. "Yes, I don't understand. However, I don't like it when a girl cries."
"Me neither!" Nadia exclaimed as she shook her head. Suddenly, she appeared behind Bobby.
The sudden arrival of the two children just made things worse. It was obvious that they just didn't want her to reminisce the past.
Nancy stood up in a hurry. "That's enough, you two. Hurry up and change your clothes. I'll drive you both to the kindergarten." "Okay." Bobby shrugged his shoulders reluctantly. Then, he turned to Charles. "Daddy, aren't you coming with us?" "Unfortunately, your daddy's leg still hasn't healed," said Angelina with a compassionate tone.
"I understand. Please take care of yourself, Daddy," said Bobby worriedly.
