Sweet Twins Indulge in Daddy's Love novel Chapter 358

It was so evident that Charles didn't like Edward's existence; otherwise, the former would not sport a grimace of displeasure whenever the latter was around.

But even with this, Nancy hoped that the two would eventually learn to be casual with each other, even if they didn't get to be friends.

And most of all, she prayed that they would stop fighting over her because frankly, it was now becoming so stressful. "Nancy, Edward is not a woman; he is a man! What else do you want me to do to him?" Charles reasoned out as he heaved a sigh.

"Stop provoking and fighting with him!" The woman didn't care if she sounded stubborn. At this point, all she wanted was to have peace around her. And if those two men wouldn't stop growling at each other, she might as well disappear out of their sights.

"What if he provokes me?" Charles pierced his sharp eyes at her, expecting an answer that would favor him. However, much to his disappointment, Nancy seemed to have taken his rival's side.

"Edward is a good man. Why would he provoke you?”

"What? Are you seriously taking his side? What if he initiates the fight, huh? Do you want me to just stand there and do nothing?" A gasp of air blew from Charles' mouth as he tried to patiently reason out with the woman he loved.

"Well, if that happens, I'll be the one to teach him a lesson. So for now, you have to behave yourself, okay?" Nancy shook her head. She couldn’t believe he was talking to this grown-up man like a three-year-old kid!

"Okay!" A wide grin etched on his lips as Charles nodded in sheer satisfaction.

He didn't care if he was selfish. After all, love was bound to be that way if one didn’t wish to be hurt.

As for him, he only wanted Nancy for himself, and he had marked her as his territory long ago. If another man trespassed on her, he would certainly wreak havoc.

But although he felt that way, Charles was not confident if Nancy felt the same way. And the thought of that only made him worry even more.

More than that, he vaguely felt that Edward was not really a good man, contrary to how Nancy considered him. There was no way Edward wouldn't be jealous of their relationship. In fact, Charles clearly saw how the former looked at Nancy with utmost longing and desire —similar to how a man deeply in love would stare at his muse.

'I just hope Nancy would never stop loving me,' Charles thought as the two of them went downstairs.

As soon as they reached the ground floor, they found their kids gazing at them with cautious eyes. From the looks of it, Bobby and Nadia had obviously been listening attentively to their conversation.

Suddenly, Charles and Nancy stopped on their tracks while the children still had their eyes glued to their parents.

The four of them stared at each other, but none dared to utter a word. Only the sounds of their heavy breathing penetrated the space between them. However, after a while, Bobby broke the deafening silence.

"Nadia, let’s go and have dinner," he uttered and grabbed his sister's hand.

"Oh, okay!" Nadia replied, already salivating as her stomach had been growling for a while now.

Hand in hand, the two kids turned around and left as if they saw nothing, leaving their parents in surprise.

'What was that?'

Nancy thought as she gazed up at Charles.

However, the latter only raised his brows and shrugged, thinking that it was probably nothing.

"They were obviously eavesdropping. We can't let them do that freely! What if they make it a habit and bring it with them until they grow up? That's not good, Charles! We have to educate them right instead of tolerating that kind of behavior!" Although her voice was just slightly higher than a whisper, it was still evident that Nancy was anxious at how their kids had been behaving.

"Shh, keep your voice down! Don't make such a big fuss over it. Look, the kids are still young. They will still change in the future," Charles whispered as he stuck his index finger on his lips. Then, he carefully glanced at the living room's direction to see if the kids could hear them.

"Humph, it must be Bobby's idea! Nadia is too innocent to even think of eavesdropping! I'll talk to him!"

"Honey, don't worry. Bobby is just a child, and he's not as complicated as you think. We should guide him properly instead of scolding him everytime he commits a mistake." Grabbing Nancy on both her shoulders, Charles turned her to face him. This way, she could see the sincerity on his face. Like her, Charles only wanted the best fortheir kids, and he feared that scolding them would only make them distant as they grow up.

"Kids nowadays are too smart for their age. I just wish they grow up into responsible adults." Nancy slightly lowered her head and heaved a sigh.

"Well, we’ll worry about that in the future. For now, let's cook first and then have dinner, okay?” Charles’ big hands cupped her small face as he planted a soft kiss on her forehead.

"Okay. But we also have to be careful from now on. Fighting in front of them would definitely create a bad impact on the kids," the woman uttered while protruding her lips.

"Well, we're a couple so..." Smiling cheekily, Charles removed his hands from her shoulders and gently intertwined them with hers. However, the latter glared at him, obviously irritated at how he was taking this matter lightly.

But Charles didn't seem to care. In fact, he found Nancy too sexy whenever she turned into a strict mother.

"Well, I mean, we will be married soon, and it's only right that we cultivate a harmonious relationship not just for us, but for the kids too!" Charles uttered, pretending to be serious this time. Then, he furrowed his brows tightly before adding, "So, enough with the fighting. It’s not good for the kids if they always see us cursing at each other's throat. And did you see how Nadia was biting her fingers while listening to us? She must have been traumatized! You should pay more attention to her."

Upon hearing this, Nancy suddenly realized that she had recently been neglecting her duties as a mother. More than that, it had been a while since she checked up on and spent time with the kids, especially Nadia. So as guilt began to eat her up, she uttered in a low voice, "Okay."

"That's my girl!" With a snicker, Charles pinched her nose and planted another kiss on the forehead.

Although that seemed like a small gesture, Nancy felt a warm embrace wrapping her heart.
