Chapter 49 Reading Together
It was almost time to go to bed. Nancy wore a pair of one-piece pajamas with a hamster pattern and
fluffy slippers. She went to Marcus’s study with a light pink stuffed rabbit toy in her arms.
Marcus didn’t close the door, so Nancy could push the door open directly. Nancy stealthily walked
into Marcus’s study and quietly shut the door.

Silence reigned in the study, and only the tap on aputer could be heard. Marcus sat up straight
by themplight. He looked cooler in a ck shirt.
Marcus was well-featured and handsome. Nancy felt Marcus was attractive when he focused on his
work.
Nancy scuttled towards Marcus in her slippers with light steps. She kept quiet when she came up to
Marcus.
"Why don’t you go to bed?"
Marcus put his hand on Nancy’s shoulder and pulled Nancy gently towards him.
Nancy leaned on Marcus’p with the rabbit toy in her arms. She rested her chin on the back of her
hands and looked up at Marcus, her long eyshes casting a shadow on her eyelids.
"It’s time to go to bed."
Nancy thought her older brother, Marcus, had worked for a long time tonight.
Nancy remembered that her mom once said that working for a long time made one sick and
ufortable.
Marcus pinched Nancy’s nape gently. He indeed felt tired because he didn’t have a good rest since
coming back home.
"Ok."
Marcus replied briefly. He stopped working and pinched the bridge of his nose. Then he stood up
and also swept Nancy into his arms.
"Nancy, do you want to share the same bed with me tonight?"
Nancy blinked and nodded her approval, her eyes gleaming.
Nancy threw her arms around Marcus’ neck and rubbed her head against it. She yawned and
burrowed her head into Marcus’ shoulder directly with her closed eyes.
Marcus always seemed stern and cold in others’ eyes, but he was warm and credible to Nancy.
After entering Marcus’ bedroom, Nancy opened her eyes and looked around curiously. Adam filled
his room with his private collection. Different from Adam’s room, Marcus’ room was dull in
decoration and color. Most of the things in his room were ck.
In general, the overall decoration was simple but luxurious, which was suitable for Marcus.
Marcusid Nancy down gently on his big bed. Nancy jumped on the bed barefoot.
Nancy looked meek and cute in her milky white pajamas, which made her incongruous in this room.
But she also breathed new life into this dull room.
As the owner of this room, Marcus was delighted.
"Nancy, I will have a shower. Don’t leave here."
Nancy nodded and said softly.
"I will behave myself."
Marcus rubbed Nancy’s head and then took his pajamas from the wardrobe for a shower.
After Marcus left for a shower, Nancy sat quietly on the side of the bed and swung her legs from
side to side.
Nancy heard something vibrating.
It was Marcus’ phone. Nancy was frightened that she gave a hup. She blinked and crawled
towards the phone on the bed.
Nancy saw Marcus’ phone vibrating constantly and found someone was making a call to Marcus.
Since Marcus was not here, Nancy took the phone and jumped out of the bed. She took on her
shoes quickly and scuttled to the door of the bathroom.
"Marcus, your phone is ringing."
Nancy shouted to Marcus, who was taking a shower.
"Nancy, tell the person who made the call that I am busy now."
Marcus’ voice came with the sound of running water. “OK,” Nancy said and tapped the green button
to answer the phone.
When Nancy made a call to her father, her mom told her that the green button was for answering
the iing calls while the red one was for declining.
Nancy answered the phone and heard a deep voice of a man over the phone.
"Marcus, I am your best friend, but you didn’t tell me you hade back. What about hanging out
with me?"
"Hello, Marcus said he had no time."
Yale heard a voice of a little girl over the phone unexpectedly.
He was so surprised that his phone almost dropped out of his hand.
Yale checked the phone number carefully and was certain that he dialed the right number. But he
wondered why a little girl would take Marcus’ phone.
"Who are you?"
Yale sat bolt upright and asked. Then Nancy said softly.
"My name is Nancy and I am Marcus’ younger sister."
Yale thought Nancy’s voice was soft and sweet.
"Nancy, how old are you?"
Yale became interested in Nancy and kept asking her questions instead of hanging up the phone.
He also felt it interesting that Marcus would ask Nancy to answer the phone.
Nancy still stood at the door of the bathroom. Marcus’ phone was too big for Nancy to hold in one
hand. She said seriously.
"I am five years old."
"Five years old…"
Thetest gossip suddenly urred to Yale. It was said that the Brook family had found its missing
daughter.
The daughter of the Brook family got lost several years ago. At that time, Marcus almost looked for
his younger sister everywhere in L City but failed to find her. Because of it, Marcus also became
increasingly distant and indifferent.
Yale knew Marcus kept finding the whereabouts of his younger sister. But he felt surprised that
Marcus managed to find her atst.
Yale sneered at the relevant gossip with contempt. He knew the Brook family would cherish Nancy
even if she was rude and illiterate. So those who spoke ill of Nancy were just inviting trouble.
Yale never expected that it was Nancy who answered the phone. Judged from her soft and sweet
voice as well as the Brook family’s appearances, Yale thought Nancy was a lovely and good-looking
girl.
Yale wanted to meet Nancy, the daughter of the Brook family.
"Nancy, what is your elder brother doing now?"
"He is taking a shower."
Yale thought Nancy was as good as gold.
Yale’s impression of Nancy was favorable. He knew Nancy was an adorable little girl from her voice.
Yale felt many children, including his nephew, nowadays were naughty, noisy, and petnt. Few
children spoke softly and sweetly like Nancy.
Yale was longing to see Nancy face-to-face even more.
"I am your elder brother’s friend. There is something I have to tell him. So I will hang up first and
then make a video call. You should receive the call, okay?"
