Sweet Twins Indulge in Daddy's Love novel Chapter 118

Nancy gave a tight-lipped smile.

Although she had told Charles that she would be with Ethan, it was just a lie. She couldn't be with Ethan, because she didn't love him.

If she chose to be with Ethan, their relationship would be nothing but a lie. It would result in both of them getting hurt by each other's rejection. She couldn't let that happen.

How could she engage with Ethan when she knew they wouldn't be happy with each other?

It'd be nothing but a torturing burden to both of them.

She raised her eyes and focused on Ethan. "Ethan, I have always seen you as my elder brother. I have told you that numerous times. Now, how can I overlook that feeling of mine and give in to the current situation?" Nancy said quietly. She didn't want to hurt Ethan with harsh words, neither could she keep shut about the circumstances they were stuck in.

However, Ethan's words next had her taken aback. "But I don't want to be your brother anymore. You don't have to use that excuse to drive me away. If we get in a relationship, they won't have any improper topic to gossip about us. If we get engaged, we can both shut their mouths and also find comfort in ourselves. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone? It would solve half of our problems. What do you think?"

Nancy was shocked by his words. She never had expected even in her dreams, Ethan would say something like that.

It was true that Ethan had wanted to date her before. She thought it was because he loved her. But now, when he put it like that, he wanted nothing but to get rid of the trouble.

He didn't like to be the subject of everyone's indecent discussion. He didn't want to be trapped by the rumors anymore. And the best way to get rid of it was to start a relationship with her.

This was even more wrong. To cover up a rumor that wasn't even half-truth, was more unrighteous. It was like jumping from one pit of fire to another, bigger and hotter one. She could not allow that.

"I don't agree, Ethan. We don't even love each other. If we get into a relationship now, we would be hurting for the rest of our lives. It's like two poor people hugging each other to warm up in the snowy night, in order not to be frozen to death. I cannot live like that. Death would be much better in that case. Besides, such a relationship is also too vulnerable to withstand the time and test. I'm sorry if I sound harsh but I can't do that Ethan," Nancy blurted whatever that was inside her before she stood up. She turned to leave but could not.

Ethan's sudden grip on her arm had her stop in her tracks. He then abruptly pulled her towards him as she came crashing on his chest. Her back pressed against his chest as she lost her balance to stand straight causing her to lean on him.

"Nancy, why don't you understand? I love you and I want to marry you. I request you, please don't refuse me. Let's be together, Nancy. I promise I'll love you with all of me. Nancy please, promise me that you'll marry me." As he pronounced these words, he began to caress her face, then her throat and arms. It seemed like he was holding onto something to save himself.

Nancy felt out of breath for a few seconds before she breathed out, "Ethan! Ethan stop! Please don't do something that will make us regret in the future. We are not the right one for each other. We really are not!" Nancy respected Ethan and that was the reason she still tried to be polite and asked him to let her go. If they stopped themselves now from doing anything regrettable, she could then still pretend that everything was normal between her and Ethan. Then, there wouldn't be any problem being friends like before.

To Nancy, even if he said such words, he was still like an elder brother.

However, regardless of Nancy's struggle, Ethan continued to caress her. His warm breath fell into her bare neck erupting goose bumps. This was wrong. This was not what she had expected from him. Ethan rubbed his hand into her hair passionately and pleaded, "Nancy, it took me a long time to muster up the courage to express my feelings to you. How can you refuse me when I am telling you how much I love you? How can you turn me down? I already told you that I don't mind having Nadia as my daughter. What else do you want me to do? Tell me, I'll do that too. Please, Nancy."

Now she couldn't take it anymore. "I didn't ask you to do anything Ethan. Please, just let me go. You're making me uncomfortable now. Don't bother me like this. Let me go!" Nancy had lost her calm by now. She raised her voice at the end and jerked herself to lose his hold on her.

"No, I won't. I cannot let you go unless you promise me! " Ethan was equally adamant of having Nancy's consent. He was determined not to let Nancy go away from him. He held her close to his chest tightly and tried to fondle her the wrong and forceful way.

Nancy was small and fragile compared to his bigger frame. So, she couldn't get away from him no matter how hard she tried. Ethan would have his way with her if not fortunately Charles came in at that exact moment.

He pulled Ethan away from Nancy with a violent jerk then grabbed Nancy's hand tightly. "Nancy, let's get out of here, now." "Charles?" Nancy was stupefied at Charles's sudden presence. "What are you doing here?" Now that she got rid of Ethan's hold, she easily went with Charles.

"Don't you want me to come to your rescue?" Charles taunted, sounding jealous, "Am I interrupting you from having your special time with him?"

"I didn't mean it that way. I mean...I didn't expect to see you here. It- It's good to meet you," Nancy stuttered but she was telling nothing but the truth. If it weren't for Charles, she didn't know what would have happened today. Ethan's intention wasn't good anymore.

Ethan on the other side, didn't expect Charles would come there and take Nancy with him. The sudden incident had him flabbergasted for a good minute until he returned to his senses.

"Don't be silly, Nancy. He can do nothing but hurt you over and over again. Because that's what he had been doing till now. I don't understand why you are still with him," Ethan shouted aloud at Nancy.

But it was Charles who answered on her behalf, "Ethan, you get this straight inside your head. I'm going to get engaged to Nancy, which means she'll be my wife soon! So get your hands and thoughts off of her. Do you understand?" Charles snarled in a condescending manner.

"Oh? Then what about the rumors about me and her? Don't you really care about them? Or you've gone deaf? Or worse, have you gone blind and don't anymore care about those pictures?" Ethan sneered viciously.

"Ethan! Stop it now!" Nancy yelled, her whole body was trembling from anger and embarrassment. Her head hurt from pain.

Charles growled matching Ethan's tone. "I love her beyond some petty photos. I don't care about them. Ethan, we're getting engaged. I'm warning you. Don't even think to bother Nancy!"

"In that case, I wish you two would live happily together forever!" Ethan smirked with an evil glint in his eyes.

"I don't need your blessings. Let's go, Nancy!" After that, Charles grabbed Nancy's hand and pulled her away and out with him.
