A sad expression painted Daisy's face as she strolled out. "Well, that's too bad."
"What are you saying? Do you mean you're pregnant?" Joseph revealed a thrilled expression.
"Yes, I am." However, Daisy was still blue.
"How wonderful! I will be a father. What a spectacular blessing from God! Of course, I should thank my
beautiful wife. Daisy, I will love you and the child with all my heart." Joseph laughed in excitement.
Then, he lifted Daisy as they danced around the living room.
"Joseph, don't spin me! You're making me nauseous." When she noticed Joseph's enthusiasm, Daisy's
spirit was uplifted. His happiness might have infected her.
After he carefully put Daisy on the sofa, Joseph looked her in the eye and sincerely said, "You're the
most important member of the Fu family now. Please refrain from doing any strenuous activities. Don't
worry. I'll make sure that you and the baby will have all the nutritious food you need. I love you so
much, Daisy."
Then, Joseph gently put his hand on her belly. With a smile, he rubbed it and said, "This is fantastic,
Daisy!"
"Well, you look like you haven't seen a baby before. You're ecstatic!" Daisy chided with a smile.
Joseph leaned closer and held Daisy's face. In a sincere tone, he said, "Daisy, we should get married
again!"
Immediately, Daisy's face turned red as she nodded.
As such, Joseph made a nutritious breakfast early in the morning. After the two ate, they got ready to
go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. There, they could get their marriage certificates and get remarried.
However, on their way to the bureau, Joseph and Daisy saw Nancy.
Immediately, Joseph reached for his phone and contacted Charles.
At that moment, Charles had just sent his children to school.
A perplexed expression painted Charles' face. When he noticed that Joseph was calling him, Charles
slid his finger on the screen. "Hello, Joseph. What's up?"
"Charles, how are you? Did you fight with Nancy?" Joseph asked in a light tone.
For a second, Charles was silent. Then, he replied dismissively, "No."
"So, what's going on between you and Nancy? Do you have any problems with your relationship?"
Joseph asked in a concerned tone.
"Did Grandpa told you something about my marriage?" Charles skeptically asked as he noticed
Joseph's cautious tone.
"No, it's not like that. I just saw Nancy," Joseph answered.
Charles's face revealed a troubled expression. With furrowed eyebrows, he stopped the car and
rubbed his forehead.
"So, tell me the truth. What's going on with you and Nancy?" Based on Charles' tone, Joseph realized
that the former was in a bad mood. Joseph speculated that the relationship between Charles and
Nancy was in trouble.
"Joseph, when you saw Nancy, was she alone? Was she doing anything in particular? When did you
see her? And where?" A barrage of questions suddenly escaped Charles' lips.
Meanwhile, Joseph didn't know if he should tell Charles the truth. With a troubled expression, Joseph
stared silently at Daisy.
Daisy realized Joseph's dilemma, so she just nodded. 'At this point, it's pointless not to tell Charles the
truth.' She feared the Nancy might have left with Rick. If that happened, not just Rick but the whole Fu
family would be negatively affected.
Daisy liked Nancy very much. She hoped that Charles and Nancy could get married.
"Well, she was not alone," Joseph stammered.
"Who was she with?"
When he realized that he couldn't avoid the question anymore, Joseph decided to tell the truth. "Rick
was with her."
After he told Charles the location of the restaurant, Joseph hung up the phone.
"Why are you in a hurry?" Daisy curiously asked as she raised an eyebrow.
"No, it's not like that. It's just that every time I call Charles, he always makes me feel nervous. I can't
seem to grow over it." Then, Joseph's eyes turned to the restaurant once again. Nancy and Rick were
facing each other while eating. The two seemed so happy while conversing.
"We should leave. If their destiny is to live together forever, Charles and Nancy will get over their
problems. But if they aren't, they should let each other go and move one with their lives," Daisy advised
with a wry smile.
A heavy sigh escaped Joseph's lips as he stepped on the gas and drove away.
After ten minutes, Charles finally arrived at the Chinese restaurant.
However, Charles didn't open the door and stayed in the car instead. He pulled a cigarette and a lighter
and smoked.
He immediately lit another one every time he finished a cigarette.
Charles smoked silently in his car until Nancy and Rick finished eating. Soon, the two walked out of the
building and got in a car. Happy expressions painted their faces as they talked sweetly.
Nancy was oblivious to Charles' presence. However, Rick saw him and gave Charles a mocking smile.
Angry, Charles furrowed his eyebrows and clenched his fists.
Rick opened the car door and signaled to Nancy to get in the car. "Thank you," she said as she sat in
the passenger seat.
After he sat in the driver's seat, Rick stepped on the gas and drove away.
Immediately, Charles dialed Hiram's number. "Hiram, follow Nancy. If anything happens between her
and Rick, I won't show you any mercy!"
A confused expression painted Hiram's face. 'What does Mr. Fu mean?' Nancy was Charles' woman.
However, it seemed that Nancy's affairs with another man became Hiram's responsibility.
'If Rick and Nancy enter a house, what I should do? Should I follow them inside?
I can't enter unnoticed. How should I go inside the house?'
Immediately, he realized how difficult the task was.
"Mr. Fu, can we change the plan? How about I take her back?" Deep inside, Hiram thought, 'It'd be
better that instead of following Nancy, I should just take her back to Charles. In that way, he can handle
her himself.'
Following Nancy would be a tiresome task for him.
"No, I want you to follow her. Make sure that she doesn't notice you!" Charles ended the call even
before Hiram could respond.
A helpless sigh escaped from Hiram's breath. Immediately, he headed towards Nancy's location.
'Charles can deal with any kinds of problem. Why can't he handle his woman?
Does he have a high IQ but low EQ?
But I thought that he also had high EQ?'
Meanwhile, Rick and Nancy had finally arrived at the hospital.
It had been a while since Nancy last visited. The hospital admitted more patients.
After Rick showed Nancy around, he took her to an apartment. "This is a three-bedroom apartment.
Why don't you bring the children here sometime? I'd like to see them."
When she heard Rick mention the children, Nancy became sad. "Okay."
"Just tell me if there's anything I can do to help," Rick added with a smile.
"Don't worry about me. I can handle myself. I'm not a child!" Nancy proudly raised her chin.
"Calm down. It's natural for a man to care about a woman. Age has nothing to do with it," Rick replied
with a wide grin as he raised his eyebrows.
"Is that so? I didn't know you were so considerate!" Nancy answered with a wry smile, faking a shocked
expression.
"It's not like I'm considerate to everyone. There's only one person I care about," Rick answered in a
serious tone.
Silence befell the apartment.
At a loss for words, Nancy unconsciously rubbed her arm.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door!
Rick immediately distanced himself from Nancy and opened the door. When he looked outside, no one
was there.
"There's no one here! That's strange. Who knocked earlier?" A confused expression painted Rick's
face as he looked at Nancy.
Nancy also shrugged in confusion. After some thought, she said, "Maybe someone's playing a prank."
"Who was so bored to do that? Well, I need to go back. Have a good rest, Nancy," Rick said as he left
the apartment.
Soon, Nancy packed her belongings and cleaned the room.
