Charles and Joseph walked out together. "Let's have dinner together."
"Okay." There was nothing to do at home, so Charles thought it would be better to have dinner with
Joseph. In that way, he could have someone to talk to.
"Alas, Great-grandpa is too stubborn," Bobby sighed.
"Yes, he is stubborn man," Nadia agreed.
"Well, let's go," Charles said as he was in a bad mood.
"Charles, don't worry. Grandpa is mad right now. After some time, he will be fine," Joseph said.
"When will you go to see your dad?" Charles asked.
For a moment, Joseph didn't know what to say, and then he sighed. "We'll see. I want to hold a
wedding ceremony with Daisy as soon as possible. I don't want to delay it because she's pregnant. We
can tell my father the good news. Even if he is sentenced one day, he will feel better hearing the news.
After all, he will be having a grandkid."
No matter what happened, Derrick was still Joseph's father. He would be lying if he said he wasn't sad.
If he could turn back time, he would not let all of these happen. But he couldn't, so all he could do was
ask someone to cook delicious food for Derrick.
"He thinks so highly of money all his life. Now his life is ruined. It shouldn't have happened. Right,
Charles?" The tears Joseph was trying to hold back began to fall.
Charles put his arm around his shoulder and gently patted it. "Joseph, don't be sad. Seeing that you
and Daisy are happy now. Uncle Derrick should be happy as well."
Nodding his head, Joseph asked, "Will you attend my wedding?"
"Silly man, how could I not attend? I'm your cousin. Besides, Nadia will be the flower girl and Bobby will
be the ring bearer." Obviously, Charles was trying to lighten the mood.
"Great!" With a smile on their faces, Nadia and Bobby raised their hands excitedly.
Soon enough, they found a restaurant that served alcohol too. Both Charles and Joseph were in a bad
mood, so they decided to drink.
The two men drank a lot until they could barely open their eyes. Daisy tried to stop them, but they
wouldn't listen.
Worry was written all over Nadia's face as she looked at her father. "Aunt Daisy, what should we do?
Daddy is drunk. What should we do?"
"I have an idea. Wait and see." Then she took out her phone and took a picture of the now drunk
Charles, and then she sent it to Nancy on WeChat.
The phone beeped right after Nancy came out of the bathroom. When she saw Charles' drunk look,
she felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.
At the same time, she wondered if the kids were alright.
Her phone beeped again, and this time, she received a voice message from Daisy. "Nancy, Charles is
drunk, and the two children are scared. I don't know what to do because Joseph is also drunk. I'm
sorry, but I can only take care of Joseph now. I'll leave Charles to you. We're leaving now. I'll send the
address of the restaurant to you."
Knowing that the Fu family had plenty of servants who could take Charles home, Nancy didn't bother to
reply.
However, when she realized that the kids were with him and they might be frightened of their drunken
father, Nancy began to worry.
Thinking of this, she quickly changed her clothes and took a taxi to the address Daisy sent her.
After letting Nancy know where they were, Daisy turned to the kids.
"I've told your mommy about the situation here. I think she should be here soon. Wait for her, okay?"
The two kids nodded without hesitation. As long as their mommy could come, it would be fine.
If their mother was here, they wouldn't be afraid.
Daisy helped Joseph get into the car, but she was not in a hurry to leave because she knew that the
children would be afraid if Nancy didn't come.
Therefore, she waited in the driver's seat, while Joseph was sleeping soundly in the back seat.
After a while, she saw Nancy get out of a taxi and hurried inside the restaurant.
It was only then that Daisy started the car and left.
Now that Nancy was here, she was relieved.
As soon as the two children saw Nancy enter the restaurant, they rushed over at once. "Mommy, where
have you been?"
"Mommy is here." Tears welled up in Nancy's eyes as she spoke.
"Mommy, you won't abandon us, will you?" Nadia asked in tears.
"Of course not." Sobbing, Nancy planted soft kisses on their foreheads. "No mother in this world wants
to abandon her own child. Mommy loves you."
"Mommy, Daddy is drunk. What should we do?" It seemed like Nadia's tears were endless. She almost
choked as she spoke.
"It's okay. Men always drink. Daddy is just drunk. Come on, let's go home." After wiping the tears on
Nadia's face, Nancy helped Charles up and walked towards the exit.
Two kids tailed after her in a hurry.
"Nancy..." Even when Charles was drunk, he still recognized Nancy's familiar scent.
However, he was not in his right mind.
Without saying a word, Nancy helped him and the children get in the car, and drove back home.
"Mommy, how is Daddy?" As soon as they got home, Nadia came over to her and Charles.
On their way, Charles had been groaning in pain. Now, he was still frowning and holding his stomach
with both hands.
"He's fine. Bobby, give me the honey.
Nadia, get me a glass of water."
While Nancy helped Charles get on the bed, the kids quickly did what she asked them to do.
To make him feel a little better, Nancy fed him the water with honey.
Not long after he drank it, Charles was able to fall asleep in peace.
Her eyes fell on the clothes he was wearing. Maybe she would help him change after she assisted the
kids. "You two can sleep too."
"Mommy, will you leave once we fell asleep? Or will you stay?" What Nadia feared most was that her
mother would be gone again tomorrow.
"Nadia and I are still very young. We need you to take care of us. Mommy, you can't leave us," Bobby
pleaded.
"I won't." A lump formed in Nancy's throat.
It was easy to say these words, but difficult to fulfill. What could she do?
As a mother, she couldn't let her children lose sense of security.
"Mommy, don't lie to us. Pinky swear." Then Nadia stretched out her little finger in front of her.
"Okay, I swear."
"You can't lie to us anymore," Nadia said with a hopeful expression.
"Okay." The more Nancy thought about it, the more helpless she felt. If possible, she would stay with
the children and take care of them.
But how could Frederic agree?
After arranging the two children, Nancy went back to Charles' bedroom.
It must be uncomfortable for Charles to sleep in thick clothes, so Nancy helped him take off his clothes.
Then she wiped his face with a soaked towel.
They hadn't seen each other for only one day, but it seemed like Charles' beard had grown.
He was a neat freak, so he shaved every morning. Why was his beard so messy now?
Maybe it was because of her.
