Sweet Twins novel Chapter 60

If it weren't for Bobby's invitation, she would not be going to the party.

Since she had already agreed to be there, it was only right she pick up a present.

After careful consideration, Nancy spent six grand to buy a belt for Charles.

With her price range and Charles' taste, it seemed like the best she could do.

She tucked the belt neatly into a gift box.

Simultaneously, Bobbly was flitting around the house, getting everything ready for Nancy's arrival.

He directed the servants to trim the garden and decorate the house as though he was an adult, running the house.

Angelina's eyes widened. She felt the little guy seemed to have grown up a lot overnight.

In the past, she was always the one doing all these things in preparation for Charles' birthday.

"Bobby, my good boy, you are taking such good care of your Grandma, taking things off her plate so she can rest." Angelina hugged him tightly as she said this.

Nodding, Bobby said, "Yes. I've grown up. Grandma won't have to work so hard anymore."

A lump came into her throat and she almost cried, "Honey, you're so sweet. I love you so much!"

"I love Grandma, too," Bobby said shyly and kissed on Angelina's forehead.

Moved by his words, Angelina clutched him tighter and kissed him on the cheek. "Sweetheart, just know all this hard work will be so worth it. Your dad will be thrilled to see you acting so capable."

In reality, Bobby knew his Daddy would not care about any of this. He was already learning that women were so easy to impress with these kinds of things.

Besides, he did all this for his mommy. So hopefully she was also so easily swayed.

Thinking of this, Bobby, however, said, "Grandma, we should invite more people to the party than just us, don't you think? For Daddy's sake we should celebrate properly."

He was trying to trap her into allowing Nancy to come without her realizing.

Angelina agreed without hesitation, "If that's what you want. I'm letting you make all the decision for your daddy's dinner party since you're doing such a good job already."

"That's kind of you, Grandma. So I can invite whoever I'd like?" Bobby said with a sly smile.

"Of course. You can even invite all the kids at your school. I'm totally okay with it," said Angelina happily.

"Great! I'll prepare invitations for everybody I want then, okay Grandma?"

"Okay, good," Angelina answered, suspecting nothing.

Bobby asked the servant to bring paper, pen, and the red invitation cards. Then he slowly wrote down the names of each of his friends on an invitation.

Angelina stood there, idly watching him, still basking in joy at his self-sufficiency and thoughtfulness.

Then she saw Bobby write Nancy's name on one card and froze.

Angelina's smile gradually fell from her face. "You want to invite her?"

Continuing to write the date, Bobby said, "Grandma, Mommy healed your forehead and it's Daddy's birthday. Of course I want Mommy to come. Besides, Grandma said that I could invite anyone I want, right?"

"I..." Angelina trailed off. He had her there. She had said that. She could only reluctantly agree at this point. Also, she wanted him to remain so helpful.

"I'm also going to invite Uncle Jay!" As he said, he drew a square on the invitation and wrote, "Uncle, I sincerely invite you to attend Daddy's birthday party tomorrow night."

"Grandma, can I write an invitation like this?" He showed it to Angelina.

"Of course you can! You can write whatever you want!"
