Chapter 1441What happened?Seeing him walk in, Mckenzie complained, "Look, Jovanny is crying!""What's wrong?"Charlie asked as he looked at the child whose face was full of tears."Look at Jovanny's arm. It's dislocated and almost fractured!" Mckenzie said seriously and angrily."Just ask a doctor to treat him. Why are you so furious?"At these words, Mckenzie sternly stared at Grace. "Ask her yourself."Charlie looked at Grace in confusion. He narrowed his long eyes slightly and raised his jaw, waiting for her to speak."Things are very simple. I was in a hurry to go upstairs to get something, so I didn't pay attention to the ground. Jovanny suddenly rushed out when I walked to the corner of the stairs, and then we just collided with each other. After that..."Grace stopped speaking. Everyone had seen what happened next. There was no need to say more."Accident?" Charlie raised an eyebrow, saying briefly."Right." Grace nodded. "It was indeed an accident.""Spilling hot
Chapter 1442In the study, Mckenzie and Charlie sat looking at each other. "You can't ignore this matter. I'm not joking. Think it over.""I know," Charlie said, "but I trust her. She'll never do such things."Hearing this, Mckenzie was upset. "You trust her that much?""She's my chosen wife. I know her temperament and personality. Mom, would you rather trust an outsider than your daughter-in-law?"Charlie chuckled."Whether you like Grace or not, she's my wife and our family. Don't you always say that you're on your family's side?"At these words, Mckenzie felt better. "But within a day, Jovanny got hurt two times because of her. How can I explain this to Hailee?"Jovanny is young and ignorant, but Hailee isn't. I have to give her an explanation anyway. Otherwise, she'll say that the Morgans are unreasonable and bully children.""It's normal for small children like Jovanny to stumble. They walk fast and don't pay attention to their surroundings." Charlie poured her a glass of
Chapter 1443They embraced and fell into a dreamless sleep.The next day before going to work, Grace and Charlie made an appointment to go to the hospital together after work.Making dressing was always tiring.Mckenzie was busy with something and didn't come to the restaurant. When the appointed time came, Grace left the restaurant.Charlie waited for her outside. They went to the hospital and both had a checkup.In the evening, Grace returned home. She was exhausted. Charlie considerately ordered a takeout.Grace thought that they couldn't eat takeout every day. She intended to hire a part-time worker and asked Charlie's opinion. He agreed.In their room, they could play freely, and no one would reprimand or pay attention to them.Grace felt that this was more like married life."To be honest, your ex-girlfriend did us a big favor this time, didn't she?" Grace said.Hearing this, Charlie put down the book and looked at her.Grace shrugged her shoulders, lay back in his ar
Chapter 1444The next day.Grace went to work with a silk scarf around her neck although it was summer.She needed to cover her neck. Deep purple hickeys were left on her neck. She was afraid that others would see that.She prepared the ingredients. When she was crushing them, Mckenzie took Hailee to the restaurant.Mckenzie said to Grace, "Hailee will work here from today."Grace looked up and said, "What?"Mckenzie said, "Our restaurant lacks a maître. You two will be in charge of the restaurant together. Help each other and get along well with each other."Grace said with a smile, "It's an important position."Hailee kept silent all the time.Mckenzie didn't say anything else but asked them to go to work.By contrast, Hailee's workload was much lighter than Grace's.Although Grace felt dissatisfied, she didn't say anything.After Grace had prepared the ingredients, she sat in a chair to watch videos played on her laptop as usual.Hailee was chatting with the employees
Chapter 1445Thus, Grace had made up her mind.She would have a talk with Charlie about the matters of the restaurant.The workload of the head restaurant was heavy for her.She could only meet the head restaurant's needs and was not able to be responsible for the branch.The branch was beyond her ability. She couldn't accept any extra work.She couldn't tell Mckenzie her thoughts directly. If so, the situation would be worse.Thus, Charlie was the most suitable man to communicate with Mckenzie.Grace had another reason. If Charlie communicated with Makenzie, Mclenzie might feel unsatisfied but would accept his suggestions more or less. If Grace did that, the situation would be worse.Grace would only be responsible for the head restaurant's ingredients. As for the branch, Mckenzie needed to deal with it by herself.If Mckenzie disagreed, Grace would stop working in the restaurant.Grace was spontaneous all the time. She wouldn't let herself feel unhappy.Charlie asked, "Ho
Chapter 1446It almost took Grace double the time to prepare the ingredients. Then she bent to crush them. After three to four hours, she put her hands on her hips and frowned.She bent for too long. Her waist hurt. She even couldn't move at all.Hailee walked around the restaurant and saw Grace, who was preparing the ingredients by chance. Hailee felt surprised.'It seems that she is more persevering than I expected!''After all, she is so beautiful, arrogant and sexy!''I thought that she wouldn't bear to work here. The reality is unexpected.'After Grace finished her work, she lay face down on the table and panted. She was reluctant to move.She wouldn't be so exhausted even if she ran a marathon!At that time, Mckenzie wheeled in her wheelchair and said, "Grace, send the ingredients to the branch."Grace suppressed her anger and said, "Why don't you ask the driver to do that?"Mckenzie said, "I don't trust the driver. Others may know our secret ingredients if they can di
Chapter 1447Seeing that it was Charlie, she hastily walked over and brought him out. "What are you doing here? This place is not suitable for you. Don't get your clothes dirty."Charlie said with resignation, "You're exaggerating.""Men should work outside rather than stay in the kitchen. Why did you come to the restaurant today?""I came to pick her up," Charlie replied.Mckenzie was dissatisfied, grumbling, "You've been working all day. You must be very tired but still came to pick her up. She had a car. She can go back herself.""No. We are going to a friend's party. Today is a special case. I'll pick her up and go there together." Afraid that she would ramble on, Charlie made an excuse.Sure enough, Mckenzie quieted down. "I see. She's sending the dressing and will be back soon. You haven't eaten dinner, right? I'll ask them to cook you some porridge."Charlie shook his head and refused.Mckenzie didn't listen to him, calling over a waitress and whispering in her ear.Af
Chapter 1448However, Hailee was getting more and more emotional. Her body twisted.She was put on a drip. Charlie was worried that the needle would pierce her vessel, so he stepped forward and pressed her waving hand.Being clasped, Hailee quieted down.After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes, looking at Charlie and saying softly, "I'm a little thirsty...""Wait for a moment. I'll get some water."Charlie came over with a glass of water.Before leaving, the doctor said that she couldn't gulp water and that he should wipe her lips with a wet cotton stab.Hailee seemed to have fallen under a spell.She unblinkingly stared at him, saying in a dry and hoarse voice, "You're still worried about me, aren't you?""Yes, but just out of politeness," Charlie replied."Then let's go back to the beginning, okay?"Hailee grabbed his hand in tears.Charlie calmly pulled back his hand."That's history. We used to be together, but now I'm married. I can't be with you anymore!""Why?
