Sweet Twins novel Chapter 63

"Okay, Daddy. I hope Mommy comes soon." Disappointment and sorrow were written all over Bobby's face as he missed being with Nancy.

After all, he was very excited about tonight's party. He was determined and placed all his efforts at tonight's party.

What excited him the most was the opportunity to see Nancy again.

'Where on earth is this woman?' Charles thought worried and peeved at the same time.

In his worries, he started greeting the children absentmindedly.

It was nine o'clock.

Time kept moving, and still, there was no sign of Nancy.

The initial excitement among the children died down. They began to rub their eyes, feeling sleepy.

"Bobby, where is the surprise? You said you will give us a surprise!" asked a kid, yawning, barely keeping his sleepiness at bay.

"Yes, Bobby. Come on, share the good news with us," another kid couldn't help but urge. This enigmatic surprise filled them with great expectations and a sense of mystery.

Listening to all the kids, Bobby became sad and anxious. He didn't know why his mother was late!

Unable to control himself, tears welled up in his big eyes.

He said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute. The surprise will be here soon. You will be so shocked. Just wait a minute."

"But we are going home."

"Yes, our parents are coming to pick us up."

The children could no longer wait, they had already run out of patience.

Hearing all the complaints, Bobby lowered his head. Fiddling with his fingers, he mumbled, "Why hasn't Mommy come yet?"

Most of the people who came to attend birthday party were kids, so Jay felt very bored.

Silently pouring red wine into two glasses, he passed one over to Doris.

Doris took the wine, coldly replying, "Thank you."

With an evil smirk, Jay said, "You're welcome. Look, we are the only adults invited to this party; all the others are just kids. Why don't you accompany me? We can have a chat or something. What do you say? I think you must be bored too. So, why don't we have a little chat to kill our boredom?"

Hearing Jay, Doris couldn't help but snort and release a sigh.

"Well, Mr. Fang, you are a famous elite of the city while I'm just an ordinary person. How can I have the honor of talking with you?"

"It's just a chat to kill some time. Why do you care about our status and honor? It's not like I'm asking you to marry me." Raising his eyebrows playfully, Jay rapped her goblet and took a sip of the red wine.

"You..." Doris felt blood rush to her cheeks, forming a slight blush due to the embarrassment and shyness. Doris indignantly said, "W-when did I ever say that I wanted to marry you? I don't want to be with a playboy like you at all."

"Well, if you don't want me, then I will no longer care about you." For the first time in his life, Jay was rejected and looked down upon. Unwilling, he too refuted her proudly.

Trying to hide her embarrassment, Doris downed the wine furiously.

Turning her face around, she decided to outright ignore Jay.

At this moment, Charles came over.

"Stop arguing with each other. The children are feeling sleepy, and there is still no sign of Nancy. I don't want to disappoint Bobby. You two have to somehow coax the children into waiting a little longer, all the while comforting them."

"I'm no good with children. I can't do anything about them; moreover, I can't even comfort them," replied Doris. Doris wanting to do nothing with kids, refused without skipping a beat. After all, she was never good at handling kids.
