Chapter 1421Some women would do anything to seduce a man when they have a crush on him. What if their relationship rekindled after Charlie’s ex-girlfriend moved in?In addition, she didn't have the time or the mood to deal with that kind of thing. Hence, she had to nip that in the bud.Both Grace and Charlie were in a bad mood, so they didn't talk anymore.In the silence, they fell asleep.The next morning, Grace woke up earlier than usual. After washing and making up, she went to the restaurant.She had promised to do it, hence she would stick to it whether she liked it or not.Usually, Mckenzie would come to the restaurant, but it was ten o'clock, and she hadn't shown up yet. Grace didn't care whether she came or not.She was more at ease without Mackenzie.‘Wouldn't it be nice to have no one watching?’The work in the restaurant was heavy, messy, and, more often, monotonous.Grace had been suppressing herself.She had been waiting to get off work. It was dark finally,
Chapter 1422Mckenzie was suggesting to Grace that Hailee was her guest, and Grace had no right to interfere in the matter.Besides, she was reminding Grace that it was disrespectful for a daughter-in-law to interfere in her mother-in-law's affairs.Sitting on the sofa, Charlie said nothing. He neither spoke for Grace nor for Mckenzie.Grace's anger finally overflowed. She turned around and went upstairs.Then she came down with a suitcase in her hand.Charlie stood up immediately and held her waist, "Grace, please.""I've made it clear before that if she moves in, I'll move out. Let me go!" Grace said unsympathetically."Honey--"Charlie drew out that word.Grace just replied, "It's not negotiable."She left while Mckenzie called Charlie. She found a hotel at random and checked in.When Charlie returned to the living room, Grace was long gone."Damn it!"Charlie took the glass, but suddenly he did not want to drink.After thinking for a moment, he picked up the coat on the
Chapter 1423When Charlie returned to the bedroom and saw Grace lying in bed, he sprang at her in surprise.Unexpectedly, Grace kicked him away with one kick and sulked, "Don't go that far! I haven't got even with you!”Charlie managed to hold Grace in his arms and explained, " I didn't know she moved in until I came back. I knew it a little earlier than you. Really."Grace said grumpily, "Your mother has gone too far! I'm only giving you a few days. Find a way to get her out of here!""No problem!" Then Charlie got his hand into Grace's underwear."What a cheek!" Grace grumbled.Charlie snorted, but his hand didn’t stop....As the night got deeper, Grace fell asleep.Charlie was thirsty, so he wore his bathrobe and went to the living room to get water.However, a dark figure in the living room made him gasp. "Who's there?" he asked.A tender female voice replied, "It's me." It turned out that the dark figure was Hailee.Charlie frowned slightly and got a glass of water. H
Chapter 1424 Hailee's head sank lower, and even Grace couldn't see her eyes...After breakfast, Charlie and Grace left for work together.Charlie didn't go to the company until he sent Grace to the restaurant.Mckenzie came to the restaurant around 11 o'clock.However, she didn’t come alone, but with Hailee.Grace's countenance changed immediately. ‘Holy shit! What do they want?’She was mashing ingredients, and some spices hit her on the face, which made her face feel a little hot.Gradually, she slowed down the mashing and cast an inquiring look at them.Mckenzie's eyes fell upon her and said, "You've done well."Grace squinted and looked up at Hailee.Noticing Grace's look, Mckenzie explained, "My legs didn't get well. I asked Hailee to bring me here."Hearing that, Grace said nothing but raised her eyebrows slightly and resumed mashing ingredients.Mckenzie took some ingredients and asked Hailee, "Do you know them?"Unexpectedly, Hailee said the names of these ingredi
Chapter 1425When Grace returned to the Morgan family's villa in the evening, she saw Hailee coming down from upstairs with a suitcase.Mckenzie stopped Hailee from leaving.Charlie stood nearby and frowned, "What happened?""Charlie, look what Grace has done! Hailee did nothing when we ate at the restaurant at noon, but Grace threw a tantrum at Hailee." Mckenzie said shortly.Grace heard that clearly. She was irritated outwardly and inwardly.'Shit! What the hell are they playing at? Isn't it enough that they disgust me in the restaurant?'Charlie looked at Mckenzie in disbelief."What do you mean by that look? Would I have wronged Grace? Listen, your wife lost her temper with others for no reason. How rude of her?" Said Mckenzie angrily.Charlie turned around and saw Grace behind them.He winced because he knew that Grace must have heard all this. "You're back, Grace." He said gently."Um." Grace took off her coat and sat casually on the sofa, crossing her legs and sipping
Chapter 1426After a while, Mckenzie was still persuading her to stay. "Bring Jovanny here and accompany me."Hailee didn't speak, as she was staring in the direction where Charlie was.He seemed lost in thought, and no one could guess what he was thinking about.With an overcast expression on his face, he picked up the water glass and drank up the water.He acted a little rudely, with some water flowing down the corners of his mouth, which clearly showed his bad mood at this time.Mckenzie thought Hailee was unwilling to stay here, so she persuaded, "Stay here. You and I can still chat together. If you leave, I'll be so lonely.""Auntie Mckenzie, it's not that I don't want to stay here, but that Jovanny has to go to school every day. It’ not convenient for him to go to school if he lives here, as it is too far from his school.""Don’t worry. There are a lot of servants in our family, and so are the drivers. I’ll arrange for drivers to pick up and take off Jovanny to school eve
Chapter 1427The next day, when Grace woke up, that side of the bed was already empty.Shen touched it, and it was slightly cold. It seemed that Charlie had been away for a while.After washing up and putting on makeup, she went downstairs. Juts when she stepped on the last stair, she heard the voice of a child coming from the dining room.‘When did our family have a child?’She went into the dining room.Sitting at the dining table were Mckenzie and Hailee, and beside Hailee sat a little boy who was five or six years old.The boy called Hailee Mom and called Mckenzie Grandma sweetly.What Mckenzie liked most was children, especially boys.At this moment, Mckenzie smiled so happily and reached out to stroke his smooth face. "What would you like to eat?""Mom said I can't be a picky eater, so I eat everything." The boy seemed to be very polite and considerate.Hearing this, Mckenzie liked the boy even more. She put several dishes in front of the boy.Grace's chest was undula
Chapter 1428Summer asked, "Does she not allow you to manage the accounts?"Grace threw a glance at Summer, as if Summer were an idiot."How could she give me real power? Though she says that what she does is good for Charlie and me, as she only has one son and all her properties will be inherited by Charlie and me in the future. But who knows what will happen in the future?""Besides, I'm not interested in operating the restaurant. I'm not ambitious. I’m satisfied as long as I have enough money to buy clothes, go shopping, and enjoy life."Summer shook her head and smiled, without uttering anything.Grace took another sip of coffee and then began to mash the ingredients.Summer was still eating.Grace sat beside her, mashing the ingredients with bangs. Though Summer could tolerate the noises, she couldn’t stand the pungent smell."Well, could you go out to work? How can I eat if you mash the ingredients here?"Grace raised her eyes lazily. "I'm letting you experience my work
