"You don't have a better idea, do you?"
Charlie looked up at Grace.
"Look, you’re my wife, and Mckenzie is my mother. That is very hard for me, all right?"
"I know you're upset, and I've made my position clear. As long as you can convince my mom, I'm always on your side. But you don't have a solution, do you?"
"Humph! You never expected me to succeed. I really don’t like your attitude and tone!"
Grace couldn't bear his tone.
That made her think he didn’t care about that at all, "I can’t stand the sight of your ex
-girlfriend and her son. Bothered!"
Charlie frowned, "No matter what I do, you are not satisfied. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"I'm not in the mood. Don't talk to me!"
Grace seethed with anger.
"Your ex-girlfriend's hypocrisy makes me sick. She said I hurt her, and now she's still here. And her son, who pretends to be well-behaved, sensible, and likable. Who knows what his real character is?"
Hearing that, Charlie said solely, "Child has nothing to do with these things. It's adult matters. You're not such bad-mannered people, do you?"
Grace frowned, "Are you criticizing me?"
