Sweet Twins

"Hey! You're daydreaming! Wake up!" Charles playfully complained. Then, he opened the box and saw the red pepper. With a smile, he happily asked, "Nancy, you know I like spicy food?"

"Of course, I know you well."

"Wow! A thoughtful woman like you should be cherished. Thank you!" Charles picked up the chopsticks and revealed a delighted expression. "I'm getting hungry at the sight of this delicious food. Come on, let's eat together!"

Then, he reached for another pair of chopsticks and handed them to Nancy.

"Well, I'm here to accompany you. Of course, we'll be eating together." With a pleasant smile, Nancy sat beside Charles. "You must be exhausted today."

Nancy's concern warmed Charles's heart. "I'm a man. Such things won't be enough to tire me. Take care of yourself and don't worry about me, okay?"

"Well, I'm fine. But..." Nancy wanted to say something. However, after a thought, she decided to swallow her words.

"Is there something wrong?" Charles asked with a perplexed expression.

"Haven't you seen the news today?" asked Nancy in a worried tone.

"My schedule is swamped today. I don't have time to watch the news. Is it about Edward and that woman?" Charles asked while frowning.

"No, it wasn't. The news was about Joseph's disappearance. Despite everything that happened, he's still your family. I think it would be better if you send someone to find him as soon as possible. We don't want Grandpa to be worried about him." Nancy didn't like Joseph because he was irresponsible and aloof. Nonetheless, he was not an evil person.

Therefore, for Frederic's sake, they had to find Joseph as soon as possible.

"I've already sent Hiram to look for him. Joseph ran away on a whim. That childish temper of his took the better of him. I don't think that idiot would stray too far." Charles was aware that when Joseph was a teenager, the idiot was already fond of running away from home. As a result, Frederic was often worried and couldn't eat or sleep well. Frederic ordered the servants to look everywhere for Joseph. Surprisingly, the little brat would often just hide in the yard or basement.

That meant that despite Joseph's rebellious attitude, he didn't dare to leave home.

"Joseph used to run away a lot." Charles shook his head in disappointment.

"But this time, it's different! Joseph was humiliated. After all, his father, Derrick, did something horrible. Not to mention, Anna was the love of his life," Nancy worriedly said.
