Sweet Twins

"I won't bully Nancy," Charles comforted with a soft voice. He, too, completely understood the situation.

"That's right," Nancy added.

Without waiting for her response, Charles took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Yes, Mr. Fu. I'll bring my people there immediately. My sanatorium is the best one in this city, and I'm aware you already know that," said the man on the other line of the phone.

All Charles needed was the man's reassurance before he hung up the phone and turned to look at Nancy. "I called the new sanatorium, and their staff will arrive in twenty minutes. Let's help Auntie tidy up," he informed formally.

He was, indeed, a man of decision and action, who would always do things promptly.

It took him only one minute to solve her problem!

"Thank you so much!" Nancy expressed with her palms crossed as if he was some kind of saint.

"No need to be so thankful. It was just a small thing." The slight smirk on Charles' lips exposed how much he enjoyed her gratitude, although he was trying hard not to show it.

"The money... Ahm...the money..." With her arm pressed tightly against her wheelchair, Jade began to spoke to express her refusal.

Charles immediately knew what she was referring to. The old woman was worried that her daughter would not be able to afford the sanatorium's cost.

So, in a gentle voice, he replied, "I invested in that sanatorium. It's free for you, auntie."

"That's so kind of you. But..."

Nancy was quick enough to refuse, obviously hating to owe anyone. However, it seemed that Charles would consider otherwise. His hardened face exhibited how firm he was with his decision.

"Haven't I told you that you can take care of my child? It's all offset. Consider that as your payment for this." As a shrewd man, Charles wouldn't let his woman feel she was owing him. He just wanted to use Bobby as a bait to keep her with him. Then, when the right time kicked in, he'd make a move to make her fall in love with him and eventually make her his wife.

Love wouldn't just sprout in a snap; it needed to be gently taken care of to grow.

"All right," Nancy finally agreed in a weak voice, knowing that she couldn't find any way around this bargain.

Then, after a while, the director of the new sanatorium finally arrived with his staff to pick up Jade.

So, without hesitating, Nancy hurried to pack her mother's stuff and accompanied her to the sanatorium.
