The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1419

Shirley nodded her head, convinced. As what her brother said, they should just stick to what they know.

Sheryl had been watching her son and daughter from the beginning. She shook her head and couldn't help but crack a smile at the seriousness on their faces. People always said that twins had mutual affinity, but she didn't see anything like that on her twins. Clark was more determined and capable of handling everything around him while Shirley was more dependent. But with Clark around, she would never have to worry about her little girl.

"Look at them! Do you want to take a little nap?" Charles suggested. He sounded concerned. He put his arm around her shoulders and rubbed her gently.

Sheryl shook her head and replied, "No, I'm fine. I want to spend more time with them. That's all I want."

"Life is so generous to us, isn't it? We got nothing to complain about as long as they grow up happy and healthy!" Charles sighed.

Sheryl's eyes were welling up. She leaned back and rested her head on his chest.

All four enjoyed their bonding that they didn't notice the time pass by. Charles then realized that he had to take the twins back to sleep, and Sheryl also needed to rest.

He turned to look at Sheryl, who immediately understood him. With a knowing smile, Sheryl said, "The doctor said I could go home tomorrow. You must be tired after what you've been through the past few days. I have a surprise for you when I get home!"

"A surprise?" Charles asked, lifting his eyebrows with a naughty smile. "Hmm. I can't wait. Let me guess, an intense night together?"

Sheryl widened her eyes in embarrassment. Despite being married for years with two kids, Sheryl would still blush every time Charles teased her about their sex life like that.

'Come on! The kids are still here! Can you not talk like that?' Sheryl complained in her mind.

She shook her head. "Nope, wrong. I think you're misunderstanding me, hmm."

"Misunderstanding? I don't think so," Charles lowered his head and whispered into her ear. He was all fired up now and he wanted to play and flirt with Sheryl first. He wrapped his arm around her waist, pulled her closer to him and continued, "How can you say I misunderstood you? Aren't we thinking of the same thing?"

Sheryl felt his hot breath on her face and on her neck. Her face was burning. She tried to struggle herself free but she couldn't. She kind of regretted arousing him in the first place. She managed to turn her head away from him. Something came to her—she could dominate him for once.

"Come here. I'll tell you everything," she whispered into his ear.

For a while, Charlie got lost in her smile. He did what she told him to do. He closed his eyes, waiting for his kiss. But to his surprise, Sheryl lowered her head, lifted her hand, and touched his cheek. After which, she freed herself and ran off.

Charlie stood motionless, still shocked holding the cheek that Sheryl had touched.

'That's it?' he asked himself silently. He thought Sheryl would kiss him, at least on the cheek if she didn't want to do anything in front of the kids. But she only touched his cheek and that was more than enough to her.

Sheryl burst into laughter as she watched the dumbstruck Charles stand where she had left him. She was clapping her hands like a seal.

Both Shirley and Clark looked up at her wondering what all the ruckus was about until they saw their father.

They both burst into laughter.

Charles was still dazed. He looked at Sheryl with a confused look on his face which made them laugh even louder.

"Daddy, since when did you turn into a kitten? Look at your whiskers! Oh my God, you look so funny!" Clark managed to say in between fits of laughter. He was pointing at his father's face with one hand and the other clamped over his stomach.

Next to him, Shirley was also laughing. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Daddy's a little kitten, a little kitten! Meow, meow, meow!"

From here on, Charles had realized that he was being made fun of by his son.
