Lying on the big bed, Bobby smelled the food coming in from the kitchen. He grinned and said, "It smells so delicious!"

Charles quickly whipped up some noodles for Nancy. He leaned over and gave it whiff before tasting it. He thought it tasted good enough and took it to Nancy.

"Honey, let me feed you," Charles said sweetly.

His calling of ‘honey' made Nancy very uncomfortable.

"Don't call me honey. We are not married!" said Nancy angrily.

After a short pause, Charles said, "Okay. When I get home, I'll discuss our marriage. What do you think?"

With a smile, Nancy said, "That sounds awful!"

Angelina was never going to accept her into the family. It never crossed her mind and it never would.

So Nancy had no intention of marrying him at all.

If she wasn't going to be his wife, she most certainly didn't want to be called honey.

Charles frowned and seemed to be lost in thought.

He understood why Nancy was so frustrated. After all, anyone would be when their partner's mother hated them

les asked Nancy.

It was up to Nancy after all. She was the one who was angry.

With an embarrassed smile, Nancy said, "Good morning, kids. Mommy is fine now!"

"Okay, as long as Mommy is happy, Bobby is happy!" Bobby said, smiling brightly.

"Bobby, does that mean that they're together and happy?" Nadia's big eyes twinkled with excitement.

"Have you two fixed the problem?" Bobby frowned and looked at Charles.

Charles hurriedly put his arm around Nancy's shoulder and said, "Mommy and I have always been great. We always will be!"

Then he turned to look at her and asked, "Right, honey?"

He leaned in a little closer trying to force the answer out of her.

Nancy didn't know how to answer. She didn't exactly have an outstanding life yet. How could she say that they would always be great?

She just wasn't ready to commit to what Charles said.

"Ah yes. Kids, you must be hungry. Let's go have breakfast! We better go quickly. You have school and we have work!" Nancy changed the topic abruptly.
