Doted by My Seven Brothers novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Fed by Marcus

It was unexpected that the narrative changed so fast. At a closer look, several other Brook family members at the dinner table were surprised. Apparently, they all knew that Marcus had a fetish about cleanliness.

But Nancy didn't know it. She was happier after seeing her brother enjoy the food she picked up for him, and her little tummy ended up full and bloated. There was one more person in the group going for a walk today.

Nancy ran around following Adolph and Harley. Occasionally, she went to the garden to take the swings, and her father pushed her gently behind.

As for the walking exercise, nearly everybody enjoyed it. However, there was only one exception. Marcus was so cool and indifferent the whole time that made Windy and the Elderly Mr. Brook dissatisfied.

How could that warm, lovely boy as a kid grow up to be like this!

In fact, this was because Nancy's missing hit him really hard.

It was all the fault of those people back then!

After Marcus came back, Nancy especially loved to hang around with him, following him like a little tail and calling him "brother"in a soft and sweet voice from time to time.

Marcus would never get tired of responding to his little sister. Although every time he responded with one word only, the little one would still be happy.

"Marcus."

When it was time to go back, Nancy took small steps to Marcus's side. The little girl boldly grabbed her brother's bony forefinger with her tiny soft hand.

Marcus's fingers were slightly cool, but the weather was hot now, so the coolness was just right for her.

"Brother Marcus, why are your hands cold?"

Nancy raised her little face and asked softly. The little girl stared at her brother with sparkling eyes, but she could only see his delicate chin because Marcus was much taller than she was.

Marcus slightly flexed the finger that was grabbed by her, "I don't know."

Nancy followed him slowly, and at the same time, Marcus also slowed down for his little sister.

"So are your hands cold in winter?"

Marcus nodded.

Nancy then looked at him with a heartfelt look.

Marcus got confused.

"You must be very cold. My hands are warm. When winter comes, I will hold your hands."

Marcus looked down at the lovely little one and a small, unobtrusive smile curved his thin lips.

"That's a good idea." He answered. Nancy smiled even happier, like a little sun, pretty and warm.

When they came back from the stroll, Marcus went to the study to deal with endless work.

Nancy left her elder brother's study reluctantly. Though she was welcome to stay and have fun herself, she didn't want to disturb Marcus's work anymore.

"I didn't expect Nancy to be so clingy to Marcus."

James replied with a twinge of jealousy in his heart, "I have no idea why Nancy likes my icy son so much!"

Obviously, he was jealous.

Windy rolled her eyes, "Why are you jealous of your own son? It is so childish."

James said stubbornly, "Obviously, Nancy used to be the clingiest to me."

At that moment, the Elderly Mr. Brook walked past and had a disdainful glimpse, "What nonsense are you talking about? Nancy likes to stick with me the most."
