Before Grace could say anything, Charlie continued, "Do you feel a heavy burden? Do you feel too much pressure? You don't want it, do you? Then I'm here today to tell you that I'm not only going to give you the shares of the Morgan Group, but all my properties will be under your name in the future!"
"Even if you don't want these properties. I’ll give them to you anyway! You feel too much pressure. That’s right. I did it on purpose!"
After saying that, Charlie did not eat dinner and carried Eaton back to his room.
Charlie was experiencing an emotional upheaval today. It was said that women had bad moods during those days of their periods. Could it be that men also have a few days of bad moods every month?
Grace shook her head and went to invite Charlie to eat dinner. But he refused to eat, so she didn’t force him. After dinner, Grace went back to her room to rest.
Charlie wanted to wait for Grace to coax him. He waited for a long time but she did not show up, so he went out of his room to ask Xenia. Xenia said, "Ms. Livingston had already eaten dinner and she is resting.”
Charlie was depressed and felt angry. But after thinking about it, he felt that there was no room for him to lose his temper now.
Charlie sighed. He pushed open the door of the room and walked in. Grace was lying on the bed flipping through magazines. Putting Eaton on the bed, Charlie casually took away the magazine and gazed at her.
Ignoring Charlie, Grace stretched out her slender arm to cross over him to get the magazine. Charlie moved his lips, feeling aggrieved. "You don't even care about me now."
Grace didn't say anything. She turned sideways and lightly patted Eaton.
Charlie put his hands on her shoulders and made her turn around to face himself. "I'm sorry!"
"What was wrong with you? You didn't do anything wrong." She said calmly without anger.
"I made a mistake. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you."
Their conversation woke up Eaton who was sleeping. He let out a loud cry.
Grace held him in her arms and coaxed him. His face was red from crying and he couldn't stop crying. Grace coaxed him for a long time, but Eaton was still crying. She handed Eaton to Charlie and said, "You’re his father. Do something!"
Charlie could not get Eaton to stop crying either. Charlie hugged Eaton and patted him gently. He walked around the room and took some toys to play with Eaton, but Eaton didn't stop crying.
Grace was too sleepy and got a little dizzy watching Charlie walk around. She didn't know why Eaton was crying so much today. She said, "By the way, Andrew said that he would give Eaton a pacifier when he can't stop crying."
Charlie immediately asked Xenia to get a pacifier, then he put the pacifier in Eaton's mouth. Finally, Eaton stopped crying.
But he was too young to keep biting on the pacifier.
Charlie had to hold the pacifier for the baby. Soon his arm went numb. He thought of the way Andrew had "recommended". So he asked Xenia to find a red rope to tie around his neck, with a pacifier tied to each end of the rope.
This posture and scene were weird. Grace felt helpless.
As long as Charlie didn't move, the pacifier would not fall down. After Eaton was asleep, Charlie gazed deeply at Grace and said, "Let's get married!"
Grace was stunned. She shook her head and refused. "I don’t want to get married again so soon!"
She had a failed marriage, so she was afraid of getting married again. She didn't want to enter married life easily.
"Which do you choose, falling in love first and then getting married, or getting married first and then falling in love?"
"To be honest, I'm not interested in either. Whether it’s falling in love first or getting married first, I’ve already done it with you. They’re really nothing new!" She didn’t care.
During her time in a foreign country, she learned to cook a simple breakfast.
The moment Charlie got up and saw the breakfast, he felt flattered. Grace could cook breakfast!
Although it was just omelets, hot milk, and sandwiches, it was very good.
"The breakfast looks yummy." He said and took a deep sniff of the breakfast.
Grace raised her eyebrows. She thought that Charlie's reaction was slightly exaggerated, but she found it very flattering. "Your reaction is exaggerated, but you're right."
After they had breakfast, they decided to go shopping.
Walking on the street, Grace said, "Let's go back to stay at the Morgan family's villa tonight."
She still remembered the agreement between her and Mckenzie. Now that she had made a promise, there was no room for reversal.
That was Grace's character. If you treated her gently, then she would treat you gently. If you were tough with her, then she would only be tougher with you.
Hearing what Grace said, Charlie was delighted. The change in Grace made him really happy and grateful. According to her nature, it wasn't an easy thing to make her change.
It was time to make seasonal purchases. Grace needed a few pieces of clothes and now she was going to buy them.
When they were in the women's clothing store on the second floor, they happened to meet up with Bella who was walking towards them.
It was a long time before the three of them met. Bella paused slightly, never expecting to meet them one day. After she reacted, she greeted Charlie and Grace with a smile. "Hi, are you shopping?"
