Chapter 1593
It was almost evening. Billy came to see Charlie. He brought some fruits and some spicy seafood.
Sitting by Charlie's bed, Billy enjoyed the delicious food.
Charlie frowned. He had got used to Billy. Charlie just had some light food.
Smelling the aroma of seafood, Charlie also wanted to have a taste.
"How do you have time to come over today?
"I heard you were in the hospital, so I came to see you," Billy said casually. "I heard you almost passed out when you were about to sign the divorce papers.
Charlie ignored him. "Didn't Mark come with you?"
"He had to go pick up Summer. How would he have time to see you? He has a family! He's not a bachelor like you and me."
Charlie didn't respond. Billy sighed, "Both he and you should thank me. If you hadn't come to my wedding, how would Mark meet Summer and you meet Grace? Now, Mark is the happiest man among us!"
Then there was a long silence between the two. After a long time, Charlie asked, "Why did you cheat on Sherman?"
"I didn't intend to do that at first. Sherman said she forgave me, but she would bring it up every day to blame me. At first, I was patient. I could comfort her. It was my fault, after all." "But you know my temper. I’m a proud man. She kept bringing it up, and I got tired of it. I was sick of the tense, oppressive air in the house. I'm sick of being depressed. I want to relax..."
Billy leaned back on the couch and sighed, ” I was relaxed outside. Then I got even sicker of home, and I didn't want to go back. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"Now that I think about it, Sherman wasn't at fault at the time."
Charlie didn't say a word. He was lost in thought.
"But why did you make the same mistake as I did? Don't tell me, because I know well...
"I think Miss McCall is a nice girl. Why don't you marry her?"
Charlie glanced at him. Billy shrugged his shoulders, "I'm telling the truth. By the way, did Grace adopt a kid?"
"Why do you ask?" "The other day at the party, I heard that a child had a cold. Then Grace left with a panicked look on her face. She never liked children. She always said babies were noisy and annoying. But she looked so anxious. That's not like her at all. Or is she a stepmother now?"
Billy narrowed his eyes and continued, "I think she's unusual. Or maybe she did adopt a kid?"
Charlie knew no more than Billy did. He knew nothing about it before Billy talked about it. Charlie's brows furrowed.
Bella had been standing quietly aside. She was listening to their conversation, but she didn't say a word. "Grace adopted a baby? She became a stepmother?’
"Forget it! You have nothing to do with Grace in the future. It's none of your business to care about what she’s doing. What I said is all crap. Live a good life with Miss McCall. I'll give you guys a big gift..."
At Billy's words, Bella, who was standing with her back to them, curled up her lips slightly. She felt so happy.
Now, people were speculating that Charlie would marry her.
See? Even Charlie's best friend thought so.
So, she was not far from her dream.
What's more, she already had planned her future life in her mind.
If she really married Charlie, she would buy a villa for her parents and find them some simple jobs, so they could live easily in the future.
As for Bella herself, she would be like any other woman, having children after getting married and taking care of the family. They would live happily ever after.
However, Charlie furrowed his brows. "I think you need a kick. Especially for your mouth, I want to tear it up."
"Come kick me! You are talking like you can get up from the bed. I was being nice to give you a gift. You should appreciate it, right, Miss McCall?"
Billy's jokes made Bella laugh. She peeled an apple and handed it to Billy.
On the other side...
Kingsley came back and brought the kids in.
"Do you guys need a ride?" Kingsley asked.
Summer shook her head, as Mark was already on his way. Grace shook her head, too. She had driven her own car.
Because Grace also happened to be back in Santabaca, Kingsley and Sherman planned to stay in the city for two days. The three women hadn't seen each other for a whole year. Now, they finally had a chance to get together. They wanted to spend more time together.
When Grace returned to the hotel, it was seven twenty. Andrew blamed her, "You've made a promise, but you don't keep your word. You're twenty minutes late."
"There's always changes. Got any juice? Give me a glass of juice." Grace felt thirsty.
With a face full of reluctance, Andrew poured her a glass of juice. Then he surprised her by taking her into his arms." Stay in my arms! You're going to make it up to me for every minute of those twenty minutes."
However, Grace slapped his hand hard, " You're always taking advantage of me!"
"Why are you slapping me? I like your angry lips and the cherries on your breasts. " Andrew raised his eyebrows with a lustful look.
"If you say anything like that again, I'll kick you between the legs! And you're done forever."
As she spoke, Grace lifted her knee and thrust it upward to Andrew's manhood without mercy.
Andrew then collapsed onto the couch, his hands covering the part between his legs and wailing.
Grace moved swiftly, but she didn't kick hard. Watching Andrew act like he was in pain, she curled up her lips and went into the bedroom.
Eaton was already asleep. His fair, smooth little face was flushed.
Grace's heart immediately got softened. She gently stroked the baby's face. Then she got into bed and cuddled the baby.
In the evening, Mckenzie called Bella," How's everything going on at the hospital?"
