Nancy didn't want to hurt Edward, whether he did it intentionally or not.

"Well, Nancy, you know that I believe you. But the problem is grandpa doesn't trust you anymore. I'm sorry. You know, my mother..." Thinking about his mother upset Charles.

She always caused him embarrassment, but what could he do?

His relationship with his mother was one he couldn't break off. Add to that the fact that familial ties of the rich were complicated and involved too much interests.

But the Fu family owed Nancy this time.

Nancy understood but she smiled bitterly. "It doesn't matter if they believe me or not, Charles. But if there comes a day that it's you who don't trust me anymore, I won't have a choice but to go with Edward!"

As soon as she said those words, Charles covered her lips. "Nancy, don't talk nonsense. I will never let go of you!"

They had already been through so much together. How could she say such discouraging words now?

Driven by his anger and frustration, Charles must have exerted too much

Well, this woman must have taken the wrong medicine. That would be the most reasonable explanation!

Or, she might be suffering from pregnancy syndrome and neurotic disease. Regardless, what happened was not normal!

After ending the call, Doris raised her head and saw Jay staring at her.

Was it mockery or disbelief in his eyes?

Well, it was disbelief. Indeed, disbelief.

"Well, shall we go home?" Doris suddenly asked.

Jay answered, "You don't even remember Nancy?"

Doris rolled her eyes. The truth was she had no idea what he meant.

If he and Nancy were playing tricks on her behind her back, that would be terrible!

Embarrassed, Doris smiled awkwardly. "Of course I remember her."

"Then why don't you tell me about your friendship with Nancy?" Jay was almost certain that Doris didn't remember even Nancy. Otherwise, she wouldn't have acted so cautious and alienated.

"Of course we are good friends. Why bother asking?" Doris said confidently.

Good friends, huh? That sounded superficial.
