Sweet Twins

Chapter 38 She Can't Run Away

Nancy took a glance at Charles, who was quietly drinking the chicken soup without raising his head.

The truth was, Charles liked hearing his son call Nancy "Mommy," but he wasn't about to comment on it.

Nancy sighed and patted Bobby's back gently. It seemed that there was nothing she could do to stop this habit of his.

"Never mind. Eat slowly, take your time," she said, handing him a bottle of water.

After taking a few sips of water, Bobby asked, "Mommy, I can call you 'Mommy' in front of others, right?"

It seemed the little boy was still worried about this.

"I don't mind, Bobby," Nancy agreed. Anyway, regardless of whether Bobby called her "Mommy" in public or not, people wouldn't stop speculating about the relationship between her and Charles. The most troublesome thing in the world was to explain the truth.

"Great! Mommy, I want to have chicken drumstick and sausage. Grandma doesn't allow me to eat them. I'll eat one, only one, okay?" Bobby said eagerly at such a loud volume that many people in the canteen turned to look at him.

Shrinking back in her seat, Nancy said weakly,

"These things that Grandma doesn't allow you to eat are bad for your health. Come on, Bobby, eat this quail egg instead. It's nutritious." Right now, there was nothing she wanted to do more than to run away from all these prying eyes,

but unfortunately, she couldn't escape with Charles and Bobby around.

Noticing her embarrassment, Charles smiled lightly.

Just then, his phone rang;

he was getting a call from Jay.

Jay wasn't that worried about Charles as long as he was spending time with Nancy,
