Moriah took a look at the time. It had been four hours since Billy left to pick up Natalie in the morning, and neither of them had returned yet.
Moriah felt even more discontent with Natalie now. She couldn't be like this even if she had quarreled with Billy. She just couldn't keep so many elders here at home waiting for her!
The worst thing was that Billy couldn't be reached now. Moriah called him, but she was reminded that Billy's phone was turned off.
Moriah was helpless, so she called Charlie, asking him to help find Billy. After all, with many elders waiting here, the Days had to show them some respect.
Charlie was shopping with Grace in the supermarket when he received Moriah's call. Then Charlie told Grace that he needed to help find Billy.
But Grace sneered, putting on a very indifferent look.
Charlie said, "Those elders will be disappointed then." Hearing this, Grace then agreed, but insisted on going with him.
The two went to many places, but failed to find out where Billy went. Without other choices, Charlie had someone check where Billy's car was going.
When Charlie and Grace arrived at the apartment, they opened the door and walked in, only to see Billy i n a suit sitting in the corner, whose face showed an ashen color.
Grace glanced coldly at Billy and smirked, "You are not dead yet?"
Billy had been staring fixedly into the space. Then he withdrew his gaze to look at Grace. After that, Billy immediately looked away.
Charlie knew that Grace was still angry with Billy about him cheating on Sherman, so she said those harsh words. Charlie then said some nice words to Grace and persuaded her to leave first.
