Nancy sat still, feeling helpless. When had Bobby learned such tricks from his scheming father?

But no, he was Charles' flesh and blood; he had probably been born with that same scheming mind!

"Of course Daddy won't lie to you, and neither will your mommy. Well, your mommy has finally raised her head," Charles said cheerfully.

How could he not be happy after finding out how well his son knew him?

Nancy was speechless. It was true that she had raised her head, but did Charles not notice her resentful eyes?

As if reading her mind, he instructed, "Close your eyes!" Then, he gently ran his hand over her eyes.

Overwhelmed by his tender touch and pleasant smell, Nancy closed her eyes as if she was under a spell.

A moment later, she felt his cool lips press against her forehead.

"Okay, Daddy, next is the nose!"

"Got it!"

"Eyes."

"Next."

"Ears!"

"Done."

Every time Charles kissed her, she felt a new wave of goosebumps spread across her body.

'Dear Bobby,

al things.

As a man, he had to shield the woman he loved from such negativity.

Besides, it was a piece of cake for him to solve these problems on his own. He had just wanted to avoid discussing the details on the phone while he was in public.

"Pay the bill!" Charles took out his black card and waved at a waiter.

"Yes, Mr. Fu! The total is thirty thousand," said the waiter.

Nancy gasped in surprise as soon as she heard the number. "Why does it cost so much?"

Although she was a reputable doctor with a good salary, she had never spent thirty thousand on just one meal before!

The waiter smiled politely. "Ma'am, our hotel uses only the best ingredients. Many of them are imported actually."

"I see," Nancy said calmly, though on the inside, she still couldn't bring herself to accept how expensive the food was. Moreover, her heart ached at the sight of all the leftovers on the table. "Please help me pack the rest of the food," she added.

"Sure," the waiter said briskly.
