As expected, Bobby received a lot of praise from Charles.
Angelina didn't stop. During lunch break of the second day, Nancy saw Angelina accompanied by a woman as they both wandered around the hospital.
It was easy to tell that Angelina's female companion was from a rich family. Her appearance was elegant and dignified. With the way she presented herself, Nancy assumed something. There must be a bachelor son her family.
Her intentions were as clear as day。 Angelina would never give up until she had Nancy married off.
Knowing that only made her refuse to show herself to the two. Wanting to get out of that situation, Nancy pondered on what she should do when Hiram suddenly appeared.
He whispered in Angelina's ear. Nancy was too far to hear what he said.
As if she panicked, Nancy saw Angelina leave in a hurry.
Once she disappeared, Nancy let out a sigh, a wave of relief hitting her.
She assumed that Hiram must have told Angelina something important for her to leave. Unbeknownst to her, Charles was aware of Angelina's real motive to arrange a blind date for Nancy so he had Hiram to keep an eye on Angelina.
In the meantime, Charles was with Frederic.
"Charles, the new project needs a lot of money. You must be careful to not make any mistake. Those senior shar
at Charles would do as he said. She has to do something about it.
"No, son, let's talk about it. I think I should worry about her as she is my sworn daughter," Angelina said desperately with an awkward smile.
"What?" Charles almost shouted the word out of his mouth. "Mom, say that again!"
"Don't worry, Charles. It's Nancy who promised. She promised." Her response was soft. It was the first time that Angelina became so timid in front of Charles.
"No way!"
Seeing that the tension was escalating to something bigger, Nancy came down in a hurry. "Charles, what are you yelling at? I agreed to it. Why are you yelling at your mother?"
His response was something that neither Nancy nor her mother had expected to happen. Everything happened in a flash.
Charles stood up at once and walked towards Nancy. The way his eyes looked sent a chill down to her spine.
"Charles!" Angelina ran to Nancy worried about what her son was about to do.
Without paying attention to Angelina, Charles grabbed Nancy by the arm and took her upstairs, ignoring Nancy's protests.
"Charles, are you crazy? Your legs..." Seeing that he wasn't going to listen to her, Nancy tried to hold Charles' arm. He shook her hand off, earning a surprised look from her.
So he hobbled Nancy into the bedroom.
