Sweet Twins

"It's me who is getting married to you, not anyone else. As long as we both agree to it, we can get married. Why do you care about whether they agree or not?" Charles said, undeniably impatient by her hesitation.

"Edward has gone back to annul my marriage registration with him and he hasn't returned yet. Let's wait for his update first, okay? If he gives us positive news tonight, then I promise you we will get married. If not... If not, then let's talk about it some other time," replied Nancy with a sigh.

Charles teasingly rubbed his stubble against her soft neck and said, "Honey, I've been waiting for you for a long time now. Don't keep me waiting anymore, okay?"

"Yes, I know you have been patient for so long," Nancy said in response before turning around and kissed Charles on his face. Then she added resolutely, "Haven't I told you already that if Edward tells me tonight that our marriage has been annulled, I promise you we will? If not, then it's just not possible..."

"Okay, I'll give Edward a call right now," Charles shot back. He couldn't wait to take out his phone, intending to call Edward immediately.

But before he could do so, Nancy snatched his phone away in a hurry. "No, don't. It hasn't been long yet since Edward went back. It's now morning over there. He's probably still asleep and hasn't gotten up yet."

"You really do consider for him..." Charles remarked, his jealously clearly showing.

"Don't tell me you are jealous again?" Nancy turned around and was about to leave, all the while pretending to be angry.

"No, I'll listen to you and wait for Edward to get back to us tonight," Charles obediently agreed as he gently pulled Nancy into his arms.

Not contented with just a hug, he couldn't keep his hands to himself...

Nancy stole a glance outside and berated Charles, "The kids are here and may see us. Charles, don't! Stop it, okay?"

"No, I won't. Edward finally went back and I have you to myself. I want to relax," Charles purred shamelessly into her ear.

The implication of what he was saying was, "With Edward around, I had to be a gentleman at all times and I am tired of it. But now that Edward has left, let me indulge myself."

"But Charles, we're in the kitchen..." Nancy scolded in a low voice, albeit half-heartedly.

"Have you seen the movie with the title Waterloo Bridge? It is said there that men and women need to be intimate in different places. Only in this way will our feelings for each other warm up."

"It's just a movie; it's far-fetched from reality. Moreover, the relationship between the hero and the heroine... Hey..." Before Nancy could even finish what she was saying, Charles had already approached her closely.

"That's what you call romance..."

Nancy was speechless. She was left with no choice but to compromise in front of Charles' strong power of persuasion.
