The President's Accidental Wife novel Chapter 1461

The man's words were clearly alluding to her, saying his watch was stained...

Just because Bailee touched his watch, he bluntly threw it into the dustbin.

Did he know what such an act meant to a woman?

It was really humiliating, and it stung more than a slap on her face, especially when it was in the presence of Grace!

No woman could bear such humiliation.

Grace did not expect Charlie to be so resolute. Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed. To be honest, she found Charlie so manly at the moment!

Grace straightened her dress and walked into the restaurant as if she didn't see the complicated expression on Bailee’s face.

A woman got to have dignity. If a woman had self-respect, then no one could ever insult her or trample on her feelings!

Sometimes a woman asked for insults herself. She couldn't blame anyone for that.

Grace had no pity or sympathy for Bailee. She walked forward.

Grace didn't feel as fit as before. After a while, she felt tired. After a short break, she went back to work.

Bailee was absent-minded the whole time. As she was cleaning the glasses, she accidentally broke one, and the shard of glass cut her hand. Immediately, blood flowed out of the wound.

Mckenzie cried out in shock. She hurriedly asked the waitress to get a Band-Aid.

Hailee came back to her senses. She sucked her finger in her mouth and shook her head, saying she was fine.

After some hesitation, she said, "Mckenzie, it was because of me that Charlie and Grace had moved out. I don't feel good about that. It's better for Jovanny and me to move out."

When Hailee moved into the Morgan family's villa, it was for Charlie.

Now, since he no longer lived there, it didn’t make much sense for her to live there.

"Jovanny is my grandson. He should live here. Who dares to talk nonsense behind my back? Or did Charlie and Grace say something to you?" Mckenzie got angry immediately.

"They didn't say anything, but I can see it for myself. If I keep living there, it's not good for anyone."

"There's no need to move out. If anyone has a problem with it, let him come to me and say it to my face!" Mckenzie was determined.

Grace was really feeling tired. She sat and rested for ten minutes. Then she got up and stirred the ingredients. Maybe the break was a little too long. A slight smell of burning came out.

And Mckenzie smelled it. "Is it burnt?"

Grace answered, "I'm not feeling well. Maybe I stirred a little late."

Mckenzie immediately became unhappy." Are you not feeling well every day?"

"I really don't feel well." Grace really felt tired.

"Yesterday and the day before, you also said you didn't feel well." Mckenzie's face was cold. "I don't want to hear that excuse next time. And don't scorch the ingredients again!"

Then Grace was alone in the ingredient room. She cursed in a low voice, took a break, and continued her work.

In the afternoon, Charlie came to pick her up. Grace pounded her back lightly. She felt some soreness in her back.

"I've made a reservation in the restaurant. Let's go now." Charlie picked up the handbag beside her.

Mckenzie was wheeled out. "Are you going to the restaurant? Bailee and I haven't been to a restaurant in a while. Let us join you."

Charlie looked at his watch. It was already after 9:00 pm. If he drove Mckenzie and Hailee back first, it would be almost 11 p.m. by the time he and Grace got back to their apartment. So he said to his mother,"It’s too late. I think you can take a taxi."

"All right, then. We’ll take a taxi." Mckenzie replied. Since Charlie said so, she couldn’t insist. She didn't want to tire her son out either.

After watching Mckenzie and Hailee get into the taxi, Grace patted her stomach and exclaimed, "If I had said that to Mckenzie, she would have been angry with me!"

That was the difference between son and daughter-in-law!

In the taxi, Mckenzie complained, "It's like they say when a boy gets married, he doesn't care about his mother anymore."

Hailee asked, "How did they get married?"

"Charlie proposed Grace. I never liked

Grace, but Charlie insisted on marrying her. He’s almost thirty. But when he has a temper, he acts like a teenager."

Hailee was disappointed to hear Mckenzie's answer.

She had thought that Grace had pestered Charlie and that Charlie had fallen for her.

She couldn't believe that Charlie loved Grace.

Just a few years ago, under the cherry tree, Charlie and Hailee promised that they would love each other for the rest of their lives. That scene was as vivid as yesterday in Hailee's mind.

Hailee kept the promise to now, but Charlie had long forgotten it.

She felt indignant. The fire of anger was blazing in her chest. But she had to suppress it.
