Chapter 404 What I Mind Most

Charles' heart ached.

He must alleviate the distress inflicted on the children by the issue about Edward and Nancy.

"Honey, it's okay. You and Bobby are daddy's children. No one will dare to bully you because you have daddy to protect you. Be a good girl and go to sleep." Charles gently kissed Nadia's forehead.

Nadia faintly sighed.

She withdrew her hand, turned over and tried to get some sleep.

It was just a whimper, but it was enough to reveal that their classmates' remarks had affected Nadia.

And it was the children's welfare that Charles cared about the most.

He walked out of Nadia's room, and then went to Bobby's to check on him too. The boy was asleep, but his lips were pursed like his heart was heavy.

Charles tucked him in and walked out of the room.

By chance, he bumped into Edward who was coming out of his room.

"Why are you still awake?" Charles inquired.

Edward chuckled, "I couldn't sleep."

"Why not?" Charles asked.

"Why don't we go have some tea? The two of us need to talk."

Charles knew what Edward want

"

"No need. I like Nancy. Just keep that in mind," Edward said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"I won't forget that," Charles replied with a slight smile and walked out.

When he returned to the bedroom, he found Nancy sound asleep.

Her face was red. Maybe it was because she was too tired from work, or because she had too many things to deal with recently. She also obviously lost a couple of pounds.

Charles kissed her lightly on the cheek, feeling sorry for her.

The truth was Nancy really hadn't fallen asleep yet, so she suddenly opened her eyes when Charles' cool lips touched her cheek.

"Did you chat with Edward?" Nancy wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Well, he did it for selfish reasons," Charles blurted out but said no more.

Nancy raised her head and asked, "What?"

In her memory, Edward had always looked out for her.

Charles' words seemed unfair to Edward.

"Nancy, are you really stupid? Or are you just pretending?" Charles leaned in, his forehead was now touching hers.

His warm breath made her heart skip a beat.
