Sweet Twins Indulge in Daddy's Love novel Chapter 377

Nancy wished she could tell him what happened. How was she going to explain this to Jay?

"Don't worry, Jay. I'm sure she'll be back soon," she said, drawing a smile.

But although Nancy said that, even she was not sure when Doris would come back. She only stated that to calm the obviously anxious Jay, who had been pacing back and forth while fidgeting.

The latter suddenly stopped on his tracks and turned to face her with a stern expression. "Nancy, I'm sure you know that Doris is pregnant. If something terrible happens to her and the baby, can you imagine the consequences? I know it has nothing to do with you, but how can you feel at ease when your friend is missing? The baby she's carrying is my child, the heir of Fang Group!"

Jay's tone started with worry, and then eventually turned into a warning towards the end.

Nancy, too, was worried.

If something bad really happened to Doris and her baby, she would carry the guilt for the rest of her life!

"Felix Mu took Doris away, and before they left, I sensed that she was not in good condition!" Nancy managed to say after heaving a sigh.

"Where did they go? Tell me!" Evidently angry, Jay firmly grasped both her shoulders as his voice thundered.

"I don't know! I really don't know! I drove back alone, so I don't know where they could possibly have gone to!"

At this point, Nancy didn't dare hide anything from him, knowing that Jay was the only man who could bring her pregnant friend back.

And upon hearing her explanation, the man became too furious to even say something. "You..." He massaged his temple and after drawing a breath, he continued, "Where did you two separate?"

Immediately, Nancy told him the place where she last saw Doris.

While the latter’s beau scoured in the entire city looking for her, Doris had spent hours with her childhood sweetheart, straightening out things from the past. And after clearing out their misunderstanding, she felt the guilt slowly crawling up to her.

So, Doris tried to speak more gently than before, hoping that it would somehow ease the tension. However, Felix was utterly dumbfounded to hear her speak in such a manner when he remembered her to be an aggressive talker.

But even with that realization, Felix kept it to himself. He was just pleased that everything that had come to light and they were able to make peace with each other. "Let Felix drive you home. You are pregnant, Doris. It's not safe to let you go home at this hour by yourself," the old lady offered as soon as Doris stood up and prepared to leave.

Although she was glad to see her after so many years, she couldn't help but fill disappointed. In her heart, she hoped that Doris could be her daughter-in-law, but that would be impossible now, wouldn't it?

If only that tragedy didn't happen many years ago, perhaps things would be different now.

However, as much as she wanted to, she couldn't turn back time now.

"It's okay. I can take a taxi," Doris refused in sheer embarrassment.

"What? You think my car is too cheap for you to ride in?" Felix snorted a chuckle and said half-jokingly. He thought that Doris had utterly changed into a different person now that she was married to a wealthy man.

However, Felix was evidently exaggerating. How could Doris think like that? Sure, it had been years since they last saw each other—which frankly didn't end in good terms--but there was no way she could change into a discriminating woman. She merely refused because she was afraid that Jay would see Felix and cause unnecessary trouble. After all, she was aware of how short-tempered her husband was.

"No, auntie is sick. You have to take care of her, so..."

"My mom has been taking good care of herself. She knows I have to work during the day and earn money to buy her medicine. Don't worry. She can stay at home alone. Let's go!" Felix reassured with a smile.

And since he insisted, Doris didn't know what to say or do other than follow him outside.

Before finally leaving, she turned and looked at the dilapidated house, which made her heart pound with a touch of bitterness. The house obviously hadn't been repaired for a long time, and judging from its current condition, it would undoubtedly leak on a rainy day.

"Felix, where do you work?” Doris suddenly asked as she followed him outside.

"Wherever there's an available job. Sometimes I work as a delivery man, sometimes somewhere else," he answered lightly, massaging his nape.

"Oh, I see. Do you make enough money?” Doris saw the glint of embarrassment flashing across his face so she couldn't help but ask that with concern.
