When Joseph turned around to leave, fear crept into Derrick's heart that he began shouting.
"Go to your grandfather and ask him to get me out of here. Find a way to have me released! Do you hear me?"
However, no matter what he said, Joseph just ignored him and left without saying anything.
At the same day, Nancy received an invitation to Joseph and Daisy's wedding.
What a surprise!
But what was more surprising was that she received a white lace gown on the night before the wedding. She fell in love with it the first time she saw it.
Even so, she was still curious about who sent it to her. "Excuse me, who sent this dress?"
She thought that it must have been sent by Charles.
The delivery guy chuckled. "I'm sorry, miss. I don't know. My job is just to deliver stuff. Can you sign here to confirm receipt?"
In the end, Nancy had no choice but to accept the dress. Since the dress was sent here, she would wear it to attend the wedding tomorrow.
On the next day, she was woken up by a knock on the door.
It was still too early, but she was forced to get up.
Who could it be?
With her eyes half-closed, Nancy walked towards the door and opened it.
To her amazement, Charles appeared in front of her, wearing a white suit.
Instinctively, she tried to close the door, but Charles stopped her.
"Nancy, don't. Today is Joseph and Daisy's wedding day, so I came to pick you up. We should keep each other company." Standing in the morning light, Charles looked dignified and handsome. Nancy would be lying if she said she wasn't mesmerized.
But of course, she didn't show it on her face. "You can bring anyone you want. Why me?"
"Don't you know why I came to you? You fool!" With a playful sneer, Charles snaked his arm around Nancy's waist. "Because you are the mother of my two children. Oh, I almost forgot! Nadia and Bobby would be there too. We're a complete happy family, aren't we?"
"Charles, you haven't woken up from your dream, have you?" There was a hint of disbelief in Nancy's tone. Frederic didn't allow him to contact her. Why wouldn't he listen to him?
Instead of answering her, Charles lowered his head to give her a kiss on the cheek. Then he clapped his hands as if he was signaling to people to come in.
The next second, the makeup artists and stylists Charles hired for today appeared.
"I'll give you half an hour to help her with her hairstyle and makeup," Charles ordered in a low voice.
"Yes, Mr. Fu!"
In a hurry, they all gathered around Nancy. They didn't give her a chance to refuse.
After all, they only had limited time to help her dress up.
Half an hour later, Nancy showed up in front of Charles amazingly.
Seeing the admiration on his face, Nancy snorted. "Charles, are you satisfied now?"
"Yes, Nancy, you are the most beautiful!" It looked as if Charles was bewitched as he looked at her. "Let's go, Nancy, the kids are waiting for us!"
Well, today was a big day for Joseph and Daisy. Nancy didn't want to quarrel with Charles, so she followed him downstairs.
However, when she went downstairs, she was even more shocked.
How could she not be, when there were two rows of luxury cars parked in front of the building?
"Charles, you are just the groomsman. Why does it seem like you are the groom?" said Nancy.
"It's a secret!" He opened the car door for Nancy. "Please get in, Miss Ning."
"Charles, what the hell is wrong with you?" Nancy was more confused.
"You'll know later." After giving her another quick kiss on her face, Charles sat in the driver's seat and drove to the hotel.
It was stated on the invitation that Joseph and Daisy's wedding would be held at the hotel, so she didn't complain anymore.
For whatever reason, Nancy's heart was hammering in her chest while they were on their way to the hotel.
When they arrived and Charles helped her get out of the car, her lips parted in shock.
There was a red carpet that was spread on the ground to the entrance of the hotel. Rose petals fell from above like rain, flying in all directions. It was as if she was in a dream.
"Welcome to the wedding of the cousins of the Fu family..."
Hearing this, Nancy turned to Charles with a frown.
'What's the meaning of this?'
It was as if Charles was able to read what was in her mind. "Nancy, I won't let go of your hand this time!"
"Mommy, you look so beautiful!" Before Nancy could speak, Nadia, who was wearing cute pink dress, came over with a basket of flowers in her hand.
