Jay tightly clutched Doris by the arm. She was so angry that she lowered her head and bit his arm.

The pain was heartbreaking. On the top of his lungs, Jay shouted, "What are you doing, Doris?" Doris held the bite for some time. After a lap around the room, she finally let Jay go.

She sported a sinister grin as she said, "If you come for me again, I will bite you to death."

"Doris, you are a savage! Just you wait and see!" Jay held his arm, which felt really sore from the bite.

Doris was such a horrible person!

Even if she disliked the man, there was no need to hurt him!

Doris looked back and smiled coquettishly. "Okay. I'll wait. Let's see what you can do to me," she said.

After those words, she confidently left the scene.

Doris thought that her actions were enough to scare-off Jay.

To her surprise, Jay came for her the following day.

The man looked wicked, especially with that band aid on his arm.

"Why are you here?" Doris said proudly.

"I just came to tell you that I have a girlfriend," Jay said as he stood in front of Doris.

"Does that have anything to do with me?" Doris shrugged.

"It has nothing to do with you. But, don't you feel jealous at all?" Jay stared at her in disbelief.

"No, not at all... You could marry another woman for all I care," she continued after a short pause.

"Alright, alright. You win. Let me show you a photo of her, so that you can tell me how fine she is." Jay opened his gallery and placed his phone in front of Doris.

Doris had never seen some of those pictures in Jay's WeChat.

Jay had too many women around him. In fact, the man really had some trouble identifying some of them.

"Wow, she looks so pure. Is she still a university student?"

The girl in the photo was in some school uniform. She was obviously really young for Jay.

"Yes, she is in the junior year of the university. And she is way younger than you." Jay took his cellphone back and gave the photo a kiss. "This actually feels much better than kissing you," he teased. He just came today to poke fun at Doris.

"Get out of here, Jay Fang! Get out!" Doris swiftly got irritated with Jay's antics. She badly wanted to throw a cup at Jay.

"There's no need to tell me, Doris. I was just about to leave, and this time I'm leaving for good. Just so you know, I'll be fine without you in my life. So, fuck off!" He put his hands in his pockets and left the

scene.

Anger brewed inside Doris, and it had made an uncomfortable feeling in her chest.

Then she gulped what was in the cup and scolded,

"You're an asshole, Jay!" Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Doris thought she would feel better after she had said that out loud. But things were beyond her expectations. To her surprise, she felt even worse.

"You inconsiderate, fickle-minded, indecisive asshole!" Doris wanted to fling ever insult she knew towards Jay.

Deep down, she felt extremely sad.

Meanwhile, Nancy spent the whole afternoon wandering off. She could not seem to focus.

The news about Charles and Dorothy had compelled her to check her phone every now and then, even if Nancy did not want to give them any more of her attention. The fact that people in the area think that the two were a perfect match further contributed to Nancy's bewilderment.

Her tears swelled the more she thought of Charles and Dorothy.

Doris felt disappointed. She thought she no longer cared for Charles, but that development made her realize how much she still actually cared.

She took her car key and drove to the kindergarten.

Perhaps she had been a little too late. When she got to the kindergarten, Nadia was the only student who was yet to be fetched.

Nancy clearly lost track of time.

'Tm so sorry, Nadia!" Nancy hurriedly got out of the car and hugged Nadia tightly. "I'm sorry, baby. I'm late."

"It's all right. Just don't forget to come earlier next time, "the teacher said.

"Thank you for looking after Nadia," Nancy replied. She

took Nadia's hand and got the kid into the car.

Nadia looked unhappy throughout their ride home.

"What's wrong?" Nancy asked.

"Mommy, why can't we go to daddy's home?" Nadia asked hesitantly. The kid felt wronged because she did not have both her parents with her.

"That's not our home, baby. We only stayed there for a little while because no one would look after Bobby while Uncle Charles was away. Do you understand?"

"Oh, but I still want to play with Bobby. What should I do?" Nadia said sullenly with her hands clasped together.

"Don't worry, baby. He will come to our house this weekend." Nancy paused for a moment and asked, "Who picked up Bobby this afternoon?"

"Someone I don't know. He seems to be a driver," Nadia said obediently.

"Does Bobby know him?" Nancy asked. There was a hint of anxiety in her tone.

Nadia nodded her head firmly and said, "Yes, Bobby knows him. Bobby invited me to get in the car, but the driver didn't allow me to. Bobby did not leave until the driver carried him into the car." "Well, I see. Nadia, always be nice to Bobby when in school. Can you promise that?"

"Okay, mommy," Nadia said somewhat hesitantly.

"What's wrong?" Nancy asked once again.

"Where is my daddy?" Nadia asked out of the blue. The girl pouted and looked at Nancy with her grief-stricken eyes.

Nancy didn't know how to answer the poor kid. In reality, she never expected that Nadia could ask her such a question. She was genuinely lost for words.

Good thing Nadia didn't ask any further. The girl simply lowered her head and remained quiet.

Nancy felt extremely sorry for Nadia. She never wanted Nadia to grow up with no father.

Nancy took her child to the sanatorium. That was the first time that Nadia would meet her grandmother-Jade. Jade didn't even know that Nancy had birthed a child.

Fannie never revealed this piece of information to Jade.

Jade never posed as a threat to the Ning family. The old lady even had troubles speaking.

That was why Fannie never did anything to harm her.

Jade definitely looked better than she used to. The old lady was so happy to see her daughter once again. Although her words were inaudible, Jade's smile was clear as day. "Nadia, say hello to grandma."

"Hello, grandma," Nadia greeted Jade politely.

"Who is this girl?" A trace of worry flashed through Jade's eyes.

Nancy consoled her, "Don't worry, mom. She is my child. Everything is fine."

"Your child?" Jade looked even more flustered.

"Mom, please don't ask me anymore. I can't explain everything to you all at once. Lie down. Let me wipe your body," Nancy said in a trembling voice. She didn't want her mother to know too much, so she shifted the conversation.

Nadia brought a towel over. The girl wanted to help Nancy in wiping Jade's body.

"Mom, I have a stable job now. Once I have saved enough, I'll buy a house and take you out of this place. I'll take care of you, okay?" Nancy said as she wiped her mother's arm.

"Ah!" Jade nodded with a smile.

Nancy felt at ease, knowing that she only had her mother and daughter in that room.

In that moment, Nancy felt that she had all the love she needed.

'Family is indeed more valuable than any lover,' she thought.

Lover? Did she mean Charles?

Did she take Charles as her lover?

How ridiculous! Why would her mind come up with such absurdity? She then dismissed any further thoughts regarding that topic.

Nancy was glad that Nadia was able to make the sanatorium lively. The three shared a very intimate meal together.
