Afraid of disturbing Nancy, Charles got out of bed gently and went to the living room with his phone
pressed against his ear.
"Joseph and Anna are getting married?" It could be imagined how shocked he was when he heard the
news.
After all, he had been with Nancy for such a long time, and Frederic hadn't compromised yet. How
could Joseph and Anna get Frederic's permission so smoothly?
It was too unfair.
No, his grandfather would never agree to that.
Knowing his grandfather, he would not allow Joseph to get married so soon. Besides, he just got
divorced with Daisy.
They probably wanted to get married before their grandpa found out!
Shaking his head, Charles thought, 'What a bastard Joseph is! He never thought about the
consequences of his actions.'
However, it gave him a chance to retaliate.
While playing with the invitation in his hand, Jay replied, "Yes, I received the invitation. I'm not sure if
it's true, so I called you."
"Well, I haven't received any invitation yet. Maybe Joseph doesn't want me to attend. Since you have
received it, you can attend it at that time. Later we will discuss how to deal with this silly boy, Joseph,"
said Charles.
"Maybe he is going to give you the invitation himself. It's impossible that Joseph doesn't want you to
attend his wedding." Jay smiled. "After all, you are his cousin."
"Come on, don't make fun of me. Joseph's mind is full of interests. Just like Derrick, he is also a person
without family affection. Well, that's it. I'm going to make breakfast. Bye." Without waiting for his
response, Charles ended the call.
Rubbing his ears, Jay said to himself, "What did he just say? Make breakfast? How could he say that
so naturally? Hey, Charles, you are just like a househusband. I don't understand why you left your job
as a CEO to become a househusband."
After the call, Charles was in a trance for a moment. Did his grandfather really not interfere with Joseph
and Anna's marriage?
Could he and Nancy also do this?
Still in a daze, Nancy walked out of the room when she didn't see Charles. Her messy hair and her
morning voice didn't make her less beautiful. "Honey, what are you thinking about?"
With her eyes half closed, she gently held Charles from behind and rested her head against his back.
Feeling her warm embrace, Charles immediately felt peace. "It's weekend. Why do you wake up so
early?"
"I heard you talking on the phone just now. Who's getting married?" All she heard were just some
words, such as invitation card and the wedding, but she didn't hear who was going to marry.
For a moment, Nancy thought that Charles was arranging their wedding. She always pretended that
she didn't care about it, when in fact, she was looking forward to it.
She was also a woman, wasn't she? Although the wedding was just a ceremony, she also wanted it to
prove her relationship with Charles.
She had never denied that she lacked a sense of security.
At that moment, Charles felt a pang of pain in his heart. "Then do you want to marry me?" For so long,
he had been wanting to marry Nancy, but he was stopped by his mother and grandfather.
The wedding had been postponed for several times already.
"I don't care. It's up to you." Her voice was still sluggish.
"Yes, I will. Just now..." After a pause, Charles continued, "It was Jay. He said he had received an
invitation for Joseph and Anna's wedding..."
The moment she heard Anna's name, Nancy opened her eyes in surprise. "Joseph has divorced
Daisy?"
"Yes," Charles answered briefly.
"Joseph is going to marry Anna?" In Nancy's eyes, Joseph was just a playboy. He was irresponsible
and didn't pay much attention to family. She had thought that Anna was just another girl he was playing
around with. That was why she didn't expect that the two of them would get married.
"Yes."
Nancy kept silent for a while before she spoke again. "I know Anna too well. She is an evil woman with
many tricks and lies. Although Joseph is not a good man, he is still your cousin. I can't bear to see him
jump into the fire."
"Joseph is old enough to decide for himself, and he chose to do the wrong thing. He has to pay the
price for his mistakes." Although he knew what Joseph would face in the future, it was his own choice
to suffer.
"Aren't you going to attend Joseph's wedding?" Nancy asked again.
With a smile on his face, Charles said, "He didn't give me an invitation. Maybe he was afraid that I
would ruin his wedding. That brat... I know he is a little scared of me."
When they were young, Joseph liked to follow him. Every time Joseph was bullied by others, he would
ask Charles to avenge him.
Looking back, Charles thought that Joseph was fit to be his brother but was absolutely no match to him
as a competitor.
"No, you underestimated Joseph. He is dissolute and has no principles. Ever since he had become the
president of the TS Group, he always wants to show off in front of you. How can he be afraid of you?"
Her words stunned him for a second. 'Really?
Is Joseph like this?
Is he really that kind of person?'
Charles smiled in self-mockery. "Let's not talk about him. Whether he invites me or not, his wedding
must be the liveliest. If you are still sleepy, so go back to bed and have a rest. I'll make breakfast."
Then Charles gently patted Nancy.
"It's impossible to go back to sleep after I am woken up by you." As Nancy spoke, her arms held even
tighter on Charles' waist.
"How about I sleep with you for a while?" After saying that, Charles smiled ambiguously.
In a hurry, Nancy refused, "No, I know you are going to do something bad."
"It's a good thing. Everything you and I do together is a beautiful thing."
This man was really good at speaking honeyed words; that was why Nancy was really attracted to him
right now.
"Actually, I feel comfortable hugging you." Then she took a deep breath and smelled the pleasant scent
of Charles.
Whenever she was tired, all she had to do was hold Charles and she would immediately feel better.
"But I don't think so, Nancy." Finally, Charles turned to face her and held her in his arms the next
second.
But when he was about to go back to his bedroom, he heard Bobby running out of the room
barefooted.
As soon as Bobby saw him holding Nancy, he stopped and rubbed his eyes.
"Daddy, why are you holding Mommy?"
Their faces immediately turned red in embarrassment.
With the kids around, their actions should be restricted to avoid awkward situations. For example,
now...
