Chapter 227 What He Wants

"Let's go home." After some contemplation, Charles made up his mind to ignore his mother. There was no possible compromise—he couldn't just let her be. She would keep doing these meaningless things if he showed even the slightest yielding.

"What the hell are you doing, Charles?" Angelina shouted hysterically.

He couldn't just shame her and leave her like this when all eyes were on them! It would bring unthinkable embarrassment.

Nancy chose to be logical in the midst of the brewing trouble. She grabbed Charles's arm and said, "You can’t leave now."

"I agree. Charles, Mrs. Fu is the host of this party. It would not be appropriate for you to leave like this," Mrs. Wang said, attempting to diffuse the situation.

"That's right, Mr. Fu. We were all waiting for you," Lena said as she came over with several other girls.

Nancy looked at Charles. She knew Angelina would stop at nothing until he was in this girl's arms.

Charles's handsome features were twisted in his impatience. He was fed up with all this. Just as he was about to snap, Joseph came over.

Charles reached for the unfinished painting and said, "You have nothing to do now, right. Finish this painting."

She rubbed her eyes and asked, "Do you really want me to draw?"

"Of course!" Charles eyes burned at her.

His gaze was dark with expectation.

"Why do you keep asking me to finish that painting? Or is it that there's something else you want to say?" Nancy was aware of his intentions. He wanted proof of her identity as the real mother of the two children. It made her feel cornered and anxious. She was at ease with her life at present, and the future would be uncertain once her identity was revealed.

"You know what I want and what I'm waiting for."

Nancy broke away from Charles. She was not yet ready to face a past that she had kept buried years ago. "I want to be alone for a while, Charles."
