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 would pull himself together.
Yet what happened between Charlie and Grace was a different matter.
Mark rubbed his forehead. Summer had just heard part of what Charlie said, but she attacked Charlie fiercely.
Charlie knew little about that car accident. It sounded very serious.
He saw the bruise on her forehead that noon. She walked slowly, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Moreover, he asked her not to come to the company again.
Charlie wondered if he was now as depressed as she was at that time.
He closed his eyes and knitted his brow deeply.
The footsteps came from outside. Grace stood at the door. "I’m leaving the hospital. I came to tell you this out of courtesy."
Charlie fixed his eyes on her. He was relieved to see her looking well.
He nodded. Thinking of something, he immediately said, "I've signed an agreement with your company. While I'm in the hospital, you can't hire another driver or assistant. Otherwise, you'll break the contract!"
Grace raised her eyebrows, staring at him for a moment. She then left without responding.
Charlie was a bit anxious, not knowing if she would listen to him.
Besides, even if she breached the contract, it was no big deal.
She just needed to pay the penalty. She now had so much money. The penalty was nothing to her.
When Grace returned to the hotel, the manager called her, asking, "Do you want to hire another assistant?"
After thinking for a while, Grace replied," No need. Just keep to the original decision.
Mckenzie came to see Charlie and asked him, "Have you thought it over?"
What did he think of her proposal last night?
"Mom, I still intend to get her back. This is my real thought. I don't want to hide it from you. At that time, she had a car accident but still sent my lunch to the company. When I spoke coldly to her, was she as sad as I am now?"
Hearing this, Mckenzie didn't say anything.
"So I'm just repeating what she did for me and experiencing her feelings. Now I've realized I was indeed a bastard!" Charlie said calmly.
Bella walked in and heard it. Her heart jumped.
Mckenzie looked at the clock. It was time to go to the restaurant. She didn't stay any longer. Bella and Charlie were left alone in the room.
Bella asked after a long while, "You are a man and the president of the Morgan Group. Are you going to throw your pride because of a woman?"
"Pride...”
Charlie answered evenly, "I find that the prouder one is, the humbler they are in love."
Bella was lost for words.
Her chest heaved. She felt suffocated.
Charlie recovered very quickly this time, and he listened to his doctor. After a few days, he was discharged from the hospital.
The first thing he did after leaving the hospital was to go to the company.
When he heard that Grace didn't dismiss him, he smiled broadly.
Walking out of the company, Charlie was still delighted. He curved his thin lips and called Mark. "Don’t worry. I’ll do a good job.
I won’t shame you." Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Charlie then drove to the hotel. Grace happened to walk downstairs.
He smiled, glistening in the morning sunlight "Good morning."
Grace gazed at him for a moment. She paused and nodded indifferently, but the moment she lowered her head, she smiled slightly and briefly.
"My driving skills are very good, and I’m experienced. That was just an accident. I was once a racing driver. No one drove as well as me at that time..."
Charlie burbled, not as silent as before.
Raising an eyebrow, Grace said, "Focus on driving."
"Okay..." He immediately shut up like a timid rabbit.
After a while, Charlie rambled on again. "If you don't believe me, I can show you my certificates. One mistake doesn't mean anything. We shouldn't jump to conclusions!"
"I want to rest. Be quiet, or get out."
Charlie closed his mouth again at once.
Since Grace didn’t hire another driver, Charlie was overjoyed.
It was the first step to success.
He believed that although Grace didn't love him as much as before, after this incident, she was not so indifferent to him.
He thought maybe it was because she felt guilty. Even so, he was content.
As long as she changed her attitude towards him, he was very happy.
Today Grace worked in the office. They didn't need to go out. The heating was on. The room was quite warm.
Grace had endless design drawings to deal with. What was worse, she was not satisfied with the recent designs, so she had to spend more time on them.
