Sweet Twins Indulge in Daddy's Love
Chapter 52 We Can Talk Later

"Humph, I didn't expect your daughter to be so popular." At the other side of the hall, Jill pursed her lips in displeasure as she pushed Clark in a wheelchair.

"Yeah. I didn't expect it, either," Clark echoed, anxiously tapping his fingers on his knees.

"Don't forget that Fannie might go to prison because of her, Clark. You must make sure she gets Fannie out of trouble. Otherwise, you can just forget about me!" Jill threatened viciously.

"Honey, Fannie is my daughter too. I don't want her to be in prison either." Clark sighed helplessly. As if he wasn't already stressed out by the whole situation, his wife was putting even more pressure on him. Meanwhile, Nancy was sitting in her office, so busy examining every patient that she had forgotten her worries altogether.

When it was patient number 23's turn, she saw Jill enter with her father.

Knowing that this was no medical visit, she put down the pen in her hand and stared at her father with a cold smile on her face. "Ning..." Nancy called the name shown on her computer screen.

Her father had gotten a token with a fake name so that she wouldn't be prepared for their visit. Of course, her family was cunning as usual.

"This is the pediatric department. It's not appropriate for someone of your age to come here," she continued indifferently.

"Ah, you're so grown up now, aren't you? You don't even care about your family anymore. You don't even care about your own father!" Clark said scornfully. Although his voice wasn't clear, Nancy managed to make sense of his words.

"I'm working now. Let's talk about this later," Nancy said curtly, hoping that her father and Jill would leave immediately. There were more than 90 patients in the queue to see her today, and she didn't want to keep them waiting because of her personal problems.

"Later? Nancy, Fannie will be in prison later!" Jill roared furiously.

"She deserves it. She committed a crime, so she should be punished, right?" Nancy asked. Then, thinking that her words might have been too harsh, she added, "It's useless to turn to me for help. The police have already gotten evidence that points to Fannie."

"We know you can't do anything, but you can turn to Charles. He will listen to you," Clark insisted. Jill, who had always been arrogant and domineering, added, "What evidence? I don't care. Even if Fannie made a mistake and did such a stupid thing, you should be more tolerant. She's your sister after all!"

"Forget it." Nancy was speechless. Fannie had always been the apple of Jill's eye while she, Nancy, was just an annoyance. "You can leave. I need to see my patients," she added.

The truth was, she had no right to interfere in a criminal case even if she wanted to. Moreover, she didn't want to waste time talking to her father and Jill while her patients were waiting outside.

"Clark, you jerk, say something! If Fannie is put in prison, I won't forgive you!" Jill yelled, giving Clark a hard pinch on the shoulder.

Clark cried out in pain.

"Jill, what do you think you're doing?" Nancy snapped immediately, unable to stand by quietly while this woman was abusing her father.

"Humph! If you don't get Fannie out of trouble as soon as possible, I'll keep abusing your father like this. Let's see whether you care about him or not!" Jill said cruelly.

Tve never seen a woman like this before. Dad, is this what you left me and mom for?' Nancy thought bitterly. Even though it was all in the past, she couldn't help but feel a rush of anger toward her father. "Dr. Nancy, what's taking so long?" A voice suddenly came from outside. It seemed that the people waiting for their turn were getting impatient.

"Just a minute," Nancy replied loudly. At the same time, she pinged the security department.

In a matter of seconds, a few security guards arrived at her office.

Pointing at Jill, Nancy said, "I only treat kids. These people are in the wrong place."

"Yes, Dr. Nancy," one of the security guards said before turning to Jill. "Please leave, madam! You can't disturb Dr. Nancy while she's working," he chided while dragging her out by her arm. Another security guard pushed the wheelchair out. "Please leave now! Don't try to make trouble."

As she was escorted outside, Jill yelled, "Nancy, you don't care about your family at all, do you? Are you going to disobey your own father? Are you going to leave him alone? You are so cruel and unfilial!" Nancy took a deep breath and massaged her temples with her fingers before saying, "Next."

In a few seconds, Jill and Clark were out of earshot, but she still felt uneasy.

When the next patient took a seat in front of her, she tried to calm herself down and focus on them.

Fortunately, Jill did not make any more trouble in the outpatient department after that.

By the time she got off work, she was exhausted. The scene of Jill pinching her father had been flashing through her mind continuously since their visit, keeping her on the edge.

Whatever it was, he was her father.

Although he had abandoned her and her mother, she still couldn't help feeling bad for him after seeing him in such a sorry state.

It was with these uneasy thoughts on her mind that Nancy returned to her apartment and ate something. After resting for a while, she took out her phone and dialed Charles' number without thinking. In fact, all this time, she had been subconsciously wishing that he would call her so that she could talk to him about Fannie.

Now that the line was ringing, she bit her lip, wondering if she had made a mistake.

Several rings later, Charles still didn't answer her call.

Finally, Nancy ended the call with a sigh.

'Doesn't Bobby miss me at all? I miss him,' she thought glumly.

Then, she opened the WeChat app and sent a message to Charles. "Is Bobby fine?"

A few minutes later, there was a reply from Charles saying, "No. He made a big mistake."

Nancy was shocked. "What happened?"

"Come here and you'll know," came the reply.

Nancy didn't respond to that message. Visiting the Fu family's villa was the last thing she wanted to do.

"Be a good girl and come here quickly. I don't have time to pick you up." Nancy's eyes widened in a mixture of surprise and anger when she saw this message.

How could Charles just casually flirt with her like this?

She couldn't believe that these words were coming from this man.

And Nancy was right; this was not the way Charles usually spoke. He had learned it from Jay.

Just a while before this, Charles had been drinking in a bar with Jay. Twirling the glass in his hand, Charles asked, "Jay, tell me, what should I say to please a girl?" Jay raised his head and shot Charles a wicked grin. "They surrender easily when you call them 'honey.""

"That's all?" Charles asked in surprise.

"Well, it's effective on all the women I've seen. But on a prudish woman like Nancy...it's hard to say." Thinking of Nancy, Jay raised his head and took a sip of wine. Charles, who had been keenly observing him, suddenly asked, "Do you like her?"

"No man would dislike a woman like her, right?"

"No. You can't!" Charles protested, aggressively grabbing Jay's wrist.

"Ouch, I just said I like her, not that I love her. I don't love her at all!" Jay shouted immediately, clenching his teeth in pain. "I won't go against the bro code. I know what I can do and what I can't. I just think of her as my sister-in-law!"

It wasn't until Charles heard the last sentence that he finally let go of Jay and warned, "You must help me protect her. Don't let anyone bully her."

Jay's eyes lit up in disbelief. "Charles, are you really in love with her?" For as long as he had known Charles, the latter had always been indifferent to women. When it came to Nancy, however, he was like a completely different person, always thinking and talking about her.
