Chapter 1637
Mckenzie clasped Eaton tightly, looking at his bright eyes, prominent nose, rosy cheeks, and little mouth...
Suddenly she had a thought. Then, she took out a necklace with the Morgan family heirloom ring on it and put it around Eaton’s neck.
After playing for so long, Eaton finally fell into an exhausted slumber, sleeping deep and restful.
Reluctantly, Mckenzie put Eaton back to bed and tucked him in.
She walked out of the bedroom and saw Grace eating pasta.
"What are you feeding Eaton? Breast milk
or formula?"
Grace wasn’t in a mood to answer her question. However, after a moment of thought,she finally answered, "Breast milk."
"Well, in that case, you should take more nutritious foods. There's not so much nutrition in a plate of pasta. You need feeding up some." Mckenzie said with a frown.
Grace didn't bother to answer her and ate her food in silence.
Noting Grace’s silence, Mckenzie didn't go on, but took out a lot of nutrients, "I asked my friend to buy these for you and Eaton. They are chemical-free. Keep it."
"I don’t need that. I’ve got plenty." Grace didn’t feel like receiving them.
Mckenzie kept her temper and turned to leave without saying a word.
Grace's eyes widened with surprise.
If Grace had treated Mckenzie like this before, Mckenzie would be as angry as a lion. Unexpectedly, she was as meek as a lamb at that moment.
Grace actually didn't care about that. No matter how Mckenzie treated her, she wouldn't take it to heart. After all, it didn't make any sense.
Although Charlie was taken to the police station, the police couldn't do anything with him because of his power and status. And he was released that night.
Still greater efforts were needed before he could attain his goal.
Charlie's determination to win Grace back was unshakable. He went to the hotel every day from then on.
However, Grace refused to see him. And he was not allowed to see Eaton or even enter the room.
When he went to the hotel for the first time, the security guard who was torn between him and Grace persuaded him to leave. The security guard failed to stop him the second time. And Grace called the police directly the third time.
The cops felt helpless because they couldn't do anything about Charlie even if they arrested him. They finally put him in prison for harassment on the third day.
But Charlie showed little remorse and said to the police, "You'd better be ready at all times because I'll be a regular visitor here!"
After all, he had decided to go to the hotel every day; therefore, he had to make sure the police were ready.
That night, Bella went to the police station to bail him out. After she signed, they left the police station.
"You're just gonna keep at it, aren’t you?"
Bella turned around and stared at him.
She thought the man in front of her was not the same Charlie she knew.
Charlie, in her opinion, was not only a diligent and conscientious leader but also a decisive and steadfast president. Yet, he dawdled away his time all these days.
"How's it going?" Charlie got in the car and said, "I used to be busy with work, and now I am busy with family. They are essentially the same."
Not knowing what to say, Bella could only change the subject, "You know what? The share price of the Morgan Group has been falling. The new president has taken over several projects in succession that were in the red."
"At this rate, he may spoil the Morgan Group that has gained ground under your leadership. Are you going to sit back?"
Charlie remained silent, but his lips twitched.
No one could tell from his expression whether he cared or not. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Bella could not see through what he had in mind. His thoughts and expressions were like the dark night, which no one could penetrate.
"You can't go on like this, Charlie! I'm going to resign and start a business with you." Bella said with resolution.
"You don't have to do that. It's my life and my choice. Don't throw your life away because of the choices that I've made. That’s my affair, not yours. I'll manage. Listen, you'd better stay out of my business. Don't get any more illusions about me, or we won't be in touch."
Bella said nothing because his words stabbed her in the heart.
Charlie gradually hardened towards her.
Bella finally said, "Well, that I have feelings for you are my business. It's up to me. Of course, you have the right to reject me."
Charlie said no more and looked at his watch. Then he got off the car, hailed a taxi for her, and said something to the taxi driver.
He went back to the car and said to Bella," It's getting late. You should go home. I hailed a taxi for you." 'Now he won't even send me home?'
Bella’s chest heaved.
She was in awe of him and got into the taxi without speaking.
Charlie then returned to the Morgan family's villa.
When he got to the villa, Mckenzie didn't go to bed yet. She gleefully told Charlie what Eaton looked like and how he giggled when he saw her.
Charlie hugged her with a smile, went to his room to shower, and called Mark, "Do me a favor, buddy."
Mark expected Charlie to talk about the company, but he didn't. "Would you please ask Grace's employees whether they have any positions open? Get me a position."
It turned out that he asked Mark to run errands for him. Mark said yes, rubbing his
temples.
As efficient as usual, Mark called Charlie the next morning and said everything was arranged.
Charlie’s eyes narrowed happily, "All right. Thanks, bro! I'll treat you to dinner when I get paid."
Mark chuckled and then hung up.
Charlie then went to the company joyously. Against all expectations, his job was cleaning.
He felt like being ripped off just like a fool!
He actually did not mind cleaning. The problem was that Grace didn't come to the company at all! Then he called Mark and asked if he could be transferred to a position closer to her.
Then he was appointed as an assistant and driver.
Grace just had a shooting job in the afternoon. She eventually left the hotel, leaving Eaton in the care of Andrew and the nanny.
As soon as she got in the car, she saw Charlie, and her face changed. "Why are you here?" Grace asked, frowning.
