Chapter 383 Burden

"Yes, I used to rely on you too much before. But now I have children and Charles by my side. You should be able to relax a little now." Her voice was low as if she was shy and apologetic.

"Do you think you are a burden to me? Nancy, it's not like that. It's a pleasure for me to help you. Don't you know that?" As he spoke, Edward's eyes lit up.

His words made Nancy blush. It was true that he had been good to her unconditionally.

"So, I'm really happy to have a brother like you. Edward, thank you!" Like a spoiled little kid, Nancy smiled.

With worried eyes, Nancy asked, "Yes, how is it going today?"

"It's okay. Everything is fine."

"Charles, we have to trust each other. Clearly, there's nothing going on between me and Edward. I don't know about the registration. I have to ask him when I have time, but I'm afraid that he... It's really embarrassing!" To be honest, what Nancy was more afraid of was that her relationship with Edward could be ruined by this incident.

Their relationship was beyond friendship, but it was still very fragile.
