However, the two children kept Nancy's unintentional words in mind.
Therefore, now she was left with a new problem. And the problem that she had to face every day was like,
"Mommy, are you busy now?"
"Mommy, when will you stop working?"
As soon as she came back from work, Bobby and Nadia would ask her the same question again and again.
This made her exhausted. She never thought that her words would put her into such trouble.
Of course, Charles was quite happy to see that.
It seemed that the two kids were forcing her to marry him.
What tormented Nancy even more was that the two children kept asking, "Mommy, is there a little baby in your belly? Soon, the month will be over, when you'll be giving us a little brother or sister!"
Nancy was just speechless. "Kids, Mommy, is still preparing..."
"What are you preparing?" Nadia asked eagerly.
"Now, no baby wants me to be his or her mother. In other words, no baby wants your father to be his or her father," Nancy explained lamely.
"Bobby, why can't I understand what Mommy just said?"
Nadia asked Bobby, blinking her big eyes.
Bobby too blinked his big eyes and then smiled. He said, "I see. Mommy means that the little baby hasn't chosen Mommy to be his or her mommy, so as our daddy!"
"Is that so, Mommy?" Nadia asked in disbelief.
"Well, that's true!" Nancy nodded. "Bobby, you are right!"
Listening to their conversation, Charles smiled secretly and said, "Well, your younger brother and sister are on their way here, so you should eat well, sleep well, take good care of yourself and welcome them, alright?"
"Got it!" the two kids answered in chorus.
It was not easy for her to wait till the two children went to bed as she was also exhausted after the day's work.
"Sure enough, they are too noisy!" she complained to Charles.
In fact, before she knew that Bobby was her own son, she would never say such words for fear of hurting Bobby's sensitive and fragile heart.
But it was really different now.
Bobby too was her child, the same as Nadia.
Therefore, there was no sense of distance at all!
Charles hugged her gently and looked at her with a gentle expression. "Nancy, look, the children can't wait to let us get married. If it's not for our sake, at least let's get together for their sake. How long do you want me to wait?"
Flames were burning in Charles' eyes.
Nancy suddenly felt that something that she had been suppressing deep within was ignited in an instant.
She was a little flustered. "Charles, I've been very busy recently. By the way, have you found anything about the matter you investigated?"
Nancy changed the topic.
Charles narrowed his eyes. Yes, he certainly had some clues.
However, it was not fully clear yet.
The truth was a little out of his expectation.
The night he drove to deliver the medicine, the pharmacy staff was drunk. According to his words, he didn't want to drink much at that time because he knew he was on duty. But, when he was having dinner in the hospital canteen, a man walked over and chatted with him as a colleague of his.
