Chapter 1643Mckenzie waved at Bella, signaling her to leave together.Bella felt uneasy, looking at Charlie. Mckenzie noticed it. She shook her head slightly and took Bella away.Charlie was left alone in the ward.He couldn't sleep, thinking about Grace. Did she have no feelings for him anymore? Was she so cruel to him?Did he feel desperate?Yes.Was he depressed?Yes. He felt like he was in an ice house. It was so cold.What Mckenzie said still echoed clearly in his mind. However, it was strange that another feeling was burning inside him. It became clearer and clearer.Looking out the window at the dark sky, Grace was lost in thought. No one knew what was on her mind.After a long while, she got up, casually draping her jacket over her shoulders. She walked out of the ward.As it was very late, the corridor was very quiet. No one was there. Grace stepped along the corridor. The room at the end of the corridor was Charlie's.Through the glass in the door, she saw eve
Chapter 1644"Mark..." Charlie said in a low voice," Even if she treats me like this, I still don't want to let her go. I've made up my mind. Though she's cruel to me and makes me sad, my heart tells me I can't let her go..."Mark was about to speak when Summer, who was standing beside him listening, took the phone from him.She said bluntly, "You'd better give up as early as possible. Do you feel hurt and think that Grace is heartless?"Then why didn't you think about her situation? To bring you lunch, she had a car accident and almost died. She sent the lunch to your company, but you told her not to come again. How sad she was! You hurt her much more than she hurt you!"Summer didn't hear Charlie say that he couldn't let Grace go. She was annoyed as he said that Grace made him sad.Before Charlie could speak, Summer continued, "Don't call him again to consult about your emotional life. Please call relationship experts."Summer could understand that he was sad, and she hoped he
Chapter 1645Charlie was an assistant, and now he had no work to do, so he stood next to her and helped her sort through the documents.He didn't know that she had a talent for designing before. He felt amazed seeing her design drawings in front of him.Looking at them one after another, Charlie thought that these jewelry designs created by Grace were beautiful, unique, and elegant.Grace ignored him. She was drawing on the paper briskly, looking so charming.Charlie stood there quietly for fear that he would interrupt her.The room was silent. Only the sound of them breathing and her pen rustling could be heard.It was lunchtime soon. Charlie glanced at the clock and then at Grace.She didn't seem to want to get up and eat lunch. She was sunk in her work.After thinking for a moment, Charlie didn't disturb her. He quietly waited for her to look up and speak.Thirty minutes later, she still maintained the same posture, without moving.Finally, Charlie stepped over and slowly
Chapter 1646After hearing about what Charlie did, Summer called Grace, asking what she thought of it.Grace was silent.She didn't know what to say."You're very confused and don't know what you are thinking, right?""Not really. He got a bad cold that day because of me. Then we had a car accident. I have to take responsibility for it," Grace answered.Summer continued, "Then do you still have feelings for him?""Perhaps yes, but they may disappear in the twinkling of an eye. After being hurt by him, I've changed my opinion of him. You know it."Summer was clear about that, so she stopped asking and changed the subject. "What about Andrew? What do you think of him?"After thinking for a while, Grace replied, "Andrew appeared when I was depressed and confused. He comforted me, cheered me up, and helped me start my career. Yet I don't love him."Summer had experienced the same feeling.One could only make choices by themselves. Summer had no right to give Grace any suggestion
Chapter 1647Deeply touched, Charlie hugged Mckenzie tightly. He had so much to say, but when he opened his mouth, only one word came out. "Mom!""Don't get too excited. I must warn you at the outset that I'm not making concessions to her. I'm doing this for Eaton's sake, but I still have a lot of grudges against her.""I'm positive she'll grow on you. Actually, her bark is worse than her bite. You'll see that once you get more acquainted with her."Mckenzie made no reply to his words."You were married to her for several years. How could I not have gotten acquainted with her well enough? You don't have to put in good words for her. Nothing will change my opinions of her."Also, Bella's a good girl. Since you've made up your mind, you should stop wasting her time. I'm saying this because I don't want her to wait for you in vain any longer."Charlie opened his mouth and was just about to speak when Bella walked inside, bags in hand. She brought a lot of gifts with her.The look
Chapter 1648Her voice was very feeble, and her face was bloodless because she hadn't eaten for days.Her mother said, "Then you should give up, Bella. Maybe he's indeed not the right guy for you."Bella's hands clenched hard around the quilt as transports of emotions flooded over her in waves. "Are you suggesting I let it go?""What else could you possibly do?""It's been such a long time, and now you're asking me to quit?" Bella asked bitterly, staring at her."There's nothing else you can do. You and Charlie are not meant to be together. Much as I like him, this is clearly not going to work out between you two."Bella bit her lip tightly. Her sharp canine teeth even left deep marks on it.She sat there quietly, saying no more.Not knowing what Bella was thinking, her mother wanted to say something, but after giving it some thought, she remained silent and walked out.Bella was now the only one left in the room.Hugging her knees, she rested her chin on her kneecaps. Nobod
Chapter 1649She could eat some snacks when she felt bored.He spent half an hour with Eaton before going back to the Morgan family's villa.He walked out of the bathroom with a teacup in his hand and went downstairs only to see Mckenzie staring out of the villa. Surprised, he frowned. "What's the matter?""Bella's here." Mckenzie pointed out of the window. They could distinctly see Bella from this position. "Should we let her in?""No!" Charlie answered without hesitation. "Since she and I can never be together, I shouldn't give her any hope. Don't let her in."But Mckenzie felt that it was beyond the pale.Apart from anything else, Bella was a girl, and this was no way to treat a girl."A few days ago, when I made up my mind, I decided to sever ties with her, but you had nobody to talk with in this mansion and I was worried you might feel lonely, and you happened to find her company enjoyable, so I acquiesced in your permission to let her in.""The sky's a bit sullen. I'm af
Chapter 1650"I've given up even the Morgan group for you. What could possibly mean more to me than you and Eaton?" Charlie enunciated, having made up his mind. "I've made a decision already. Wherever you and Eaton go, I'll go with you. I swear!"Grace's chest was heaving slightly, the look in her eyes flickering. The office was very warm because of the air conditioner, so she was wearing only a thin sweater.She could feel the scalding heat from his palm seeping through her sweater. It was as scorching as magma.She made no remark.Charlie's anxiety intensified. He was really panic-stricken. It had never crossed his mind that Grace would return to France.He had nothing to coerce her, and neither did he have a way to convince her to stay. He felt so anxious as if a thousand ants were gnawing at his heart.Unable to endure his panic anymore, he stooped down and pressed his lips hard onto her rosy ones. He lost his marbles and kissed her with all his might and passion. It was as
Chapter 1814Before Jazz came to pick up Essa, his elder brother told him he should give candies if he was blocked out of the door. The big brother got experience in his own wedding years ago. Jazz kept it in his mind. At the moment, under such circumstances, he generously distributed candies to everyone. Jazz was a smart guy! People were happy with the candies. They let him in and stopped making trouble for him. People were just having fun on their wedding day and making the atmosphere livelier. Essa's wedding dress was custom-made by the most famous designer in Paris. Summer had arranged it for her. It looked gorgeous on Essa. The wedding dress had a fishtail, which set off Essa's slender waist even more as if it could be grabbed in one hand. The dress was low-back, showing her fair skin. Under the light, Essa looked amazing! Essa was so beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful! Stepping on her crystal high heels, she walked slowly towards Jazz. The distance wasn't long,
Chapter 1813The neck was Essa's most sensitive spot. She felt itchy if someone touched her there, let alone that Jazz clung tight to there for so long. She could barely stand it. Her body was squirming timidly. "Don't seduce me!" Essa was angry, "I'm not seducing you! Just sleep! But can you not cling to me so tight?" "Why? Are you turned on by me?" Essa was lying with her back to him, her cheeks blushed, and she hissed, "Who is turned on?" ‘What the hell! The man is like a sex machine!’ "Since you are so sure of it, let me check you out." Essa wanted to kill herself, but before she did, she wanted to kill him first! "Are you lying, babe?" Jazz deliberately drawled. "Get away from me! If you don't want to sleep in the guest room, go sleep on the couch! I cannot sleep with you clinging to me so tight!" But Jazz ignored her demand. Essa's whole face had turned red, so red as if it was about to bleed. "Jazz!" "You can be louder. I'm fine with it anyway
Chapter 1812Jazz naturally had no objection because he couldn’t wait to get married. He had always been determined, and as long as he made the decision, he would never change his mind!Now that he had decided to marry her, he must do it!Essa had heard her words. Although she thought it was a little too hasty, she kept silent, giving tacit consent.They were getting married in fifteen days! It was really fast!But because the bridegroom was Jazz, she was not panicked at all. She was calm because cuddling up together with him like this made her feel happy.That night was not easy. Jazz was like a wolf who had been hungry for decades, and he would not let go of the delicious meat that had been put in front of his mouth.They had sex for another whole night. Although Essa was strong, she was no match for a man.Her legs and waist were so weak that she had to support her waist with both hands in order to stand up. She thought Jazz should not have been so horny even if he had hadn'
Chapter 1811Jazz lowered his head slightly and kissed her.Essa could not pretend to be sleeping any longer, so she opened her eyes and pressed her hands against his chest."Morning, baby." He stared at her tenderly and asked, "How did you feel last night? Are you satisfied?"She glared at him, not wanting to speak.But she didn't know her eyes were full of tenderness and love now.After the sex last night, Jazz could not resist such a temptation anymore.He bowed his head, intending to kiss her."Get up! I have to go to work! If you dare to kiss me now, I will definitely beat you up!"Jazz didn't kiss her but shrugged his shoulders.He was not afraid of her threat, but he knew it was her first time last night. He thought he could not ask her to make love again in the morning. Otherwise, she would be too tired.Essa was satisfied to see him give up. She glanced at the time and found she was about to be late, so she didn't want to waste time chatting with him anymore.But w
Chapter 1810"Why are you so sensitive?" Jazz smiled lightly, enjoying her current reaction."You’re talking nonsense! You are hugging me too tight. Back away..." She blushed slightly, keeping twisting her body.She had never had such intimate contact with a man before, so she felt hot all over and acted unnaturally."Do you think this distance is too close? We will be closer…"Essa couldn't take it anymore, so she stretched out her hands, pushed against his chest, and said, "Stop it!""Why? You have to get used to this. We will have more intimate interactions, so you have to get used to..."She felt a little scared about such intimate contact.Jazz pressed his body against hers tightly. The scenery outside was blurry at night, and the two of them were alone in the same room, so it was easy for them to become turned on, and sparks were flying between them.His long fingers began to take off her clothes.Soon, she was naked. Jazz picked her up and placed her on the bed."I'm
Chapter 1809Jazz opened the car door for her with a smile and said, "Baby, have an enjoyable time at work."After finishing speaking, he started the car and stepped on the accelerator, and then, the car disappeared without a trace, leaving Essa standing there in a daze.But she still needed to enter the police station to work. Even if she stood here for two hours, she could not solve the problem. There was no point in evading issues, so she decided to get in. Then, she gritted her teeth and walked in, keeping her eyes looking straight ahead.However, even if she didn’t look at others, others would still look at her. Along the way, many people stared at her.They had not expected Essa to be so open. She had actually done such a thing at the gate of the police station!Essa felt her cheeks were burning, but she still forced a smile and tried to be a thick-skinned person.She was hypnotizing herself.When she got into her office, she felt as if she had been flayed by the gazes
Chapter 1808"A few years. Why did you call him a bastard?""You still care about him? I just want to call him a bastard. Don't be silly. There are few innocent men like me. Think about it! It is cost-effective for you to marry me. You have never been married before, and neither have I. To be honest, with my appearance and status, it was not easy to stay single till now. Don’t you think it's very touching?"Hearing this, Essa was completely speechless."It's not touching at all. Are you sure you’re not impotent? Why are you a virgin till now? As you said, you have enough merits to fascinate others!"Hearing this, Jazz on the other end of the phone became sullen and said, "Are you doubting my potency?"Women’s suspicion was the most intolerable thing to men! How could she doubt his sexual potency? It had hurt his pride!"I didn't doubt it before, but you emphasized it over and over again. It is you that made me feel suspicious..." She took a sip of water. Compared to his exaspe
Chapter 1807Essa had told her that Summer was also from an ordinary family. Seeing she and Mark were so affectionate to each other, she felt relieved and believed that Mark was a good man.It was hard to imagine such a handsome man with a high status would be the same as an ordinary man when he was with his family.On the other side of the table, Essa was putting food on Jazz’s plate, while Jazz was picking out fishbones for her. Both of them had faint smiles on their faces, showing genuine love to each other.Essa’s mother let out a sigh of relief.After dinner, Mark insisted on sending the three of them home. Essa shook her head repeatedly and rejected because there were a lot of taxis outside the hotel."This is our first dinner together, so we must send you home. In this way, we can know where you live…"Although Mark's words were polite, they had an irresistible sense of solemnity.Jazz had wanted to refuse too, but after hearing Mark’s words, he swallowed the words back.
Chapter 1806Jazz walked over and handed her red roses."You're too high-profile!" Essa kneaded her forehead with her hand, feeling a headache."Don't you like it?" Jazz smiled."I like it very much." She took a deep sniff. The roses were exuding a light fragrance, making her mood good."My brother and sister-in-law want to have dinner with you and your family tonight. Do you want to meet them?"Essa blinked, "Didn't we meet before?""Yes, but it's not formal. This time, it will be a formal meeting at the Grande Hotel at eight o'clock in the evening…"Essa rubbed her forehead, then went home, and told her mother about the dinner. Her mother was a little worried. She had only met Jazz before, and Mark was a big shot that she could only see on TV. When he suddenly wanted to meet them, Essa’s mother felt nervous.Essa kept comforting her, saying there would be no problem because Mark was very approachable and easygoing.She then changed her clothes and put on makeup. Later, Jazz
