In the study, Mckenzie and Charlie sat looking at each other. "You can't ignore this matter. I'm not joking. Think it over."
"I know," Charlie said, "but I trust her. She'll never do such things."
Hearing this, Mckenzie was upset. "You trust her that much?"
"She's my chosen wife. I know her temperament and personality. Mom, would you rather trust an outsider than your daughter-in-law?"
Charlie chuckled.
"Whether you like Grace or not, she's my wife and our family. Don't you always say that you're on your family's side?"
At these words, Mckenzie felt better. "But within a day, Jovanny got hurt two times because of her. How can I explain this to Hailee?
"Jovanny is young and ignorant, but Hailee isn’t. I have to give her an explanation anyway. Otherwise, she'll say that the Morgans are unreasonable and bully children."
"It's normal for small children like Jovanny to stumble. They walk fast and don’t pay attention to their surroundings." Charlie poured her a glass of water.
"This is true, but if things like this happen again, what should we do?"
"It's simple. We all need evidence to prove what we say. If it's Grace's fault, she will apologize to Hailee. Besides, you think too much. How can such things happen every
day?"
Mckenzie thought so. "Grace can't have children. What are you going to do?"
This question was unanswerable. Charlie gently coughed, changed the subject, and then left.
After going downstairs, he pulled Grace’s wrist. They strode out of the villa.
