Shaking the car keys in his hand, Charles jogged up the stairs and went straight into the villa.
The villa was not as luxurious as his, but he found the European style to his liking.
"Wow, Dad, your house is beautiful!" Bobby beamed.
"If you like it so much, why don’t you stay here?" Edward asked, stroking Bobby’s head affectionately.
"I want to stay!" "Really?"
Though Edward had prepared rooms for the children and Nancy when he bought the house, he never expected them to actually live here. The whole situation took him by surprise.
As far as Edward knew, Charles had always been a domineering man. How could he allow the children to live with him?
Edward looked at Nancy in confusion.

"Okay, Dad…" the children resigned. Bobby continued to count the coffee beans with his little fingers.
He heard the voices as well but knew better than Nadia.
However, Nadia was more stubborn. She stared at her shins, blinking her eyes at Edward and argued, "Dad, I know Daddy is bullying Mommy. I’m worried about her. Please let go of me. I want to make sure Mommy is okay. I want to protect her!"
