To be honest, Grace felt very proud when she saw the happy expression on his face after he finished her pumpkin soup.
In fact, her cooking skills were not bad.
Charlie felt very comfortable after taking a hot bath.
Grace insisted that she wouldn't let him have sex with her last night, but he wouldn't let her go today!
However, his move was gentle and tender, without being reckless or rushed.
They made love to each other...
Early the next morning.
Charlie could go to work late in the
morning, so he planned to go out with Grace after she got up. And he could drop her off at the restaurant.
He had been hearing her say that her legs had been hurting for the past two days, so he thought it would be best if she didn't drive.
However, it was already 7:30 a m. Grace didn't look like she wanted to wake up at all. She was still sleeping peacefully.
She would have woken up by this time to start putting on her makeup and freshening up.
Having no choice, he gently pinched her nose. "Sleepyhead, get up I’ll drive you to the restaurant."
Grace opened her bleary eyes and raised her eyebrows. "I'm not going to the restaurant."
Charlie raised his eyebrows slightly and was confused. "Does your leg still hurt?”
"My leg hurts a little but not that bad. It’s just that I don't like what your mother said to me yesterday. As long as she apologizes to me, I'll go to the restaurant."
She didn't think that was too much to ask!
"Well. It's just a minor issue. Don't be mad, okay? Besides, I don't think you can wait for the day when my mother apologizes to you."
Grace looked displeased.
"Why is it impossible? She's the one who did something wrong. And I can't be the one to compromise and apologize to her every time. She should apologize to me too!"
Charlie instantly felt that he was in a particularly difficult position. He couldn't mess up with his mother and his wife, or he couldn't criticize them either.
