A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1491

Charlie was still asleep. Grace took off her shoes. She was so tired that she didn’t even take off her clothes. She collapsed on the bed.

Early the next morning, Charlie woke up. He went to the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out of the bathroom, he saw that Grace was still asleep and that she showed no signs of waking up.

He stood some distance away from her. He did not go up to her. When he saw Grace, Charlie always remembered that Mckenzie had called him several times before, and how he had pleaded with Grace in a soft voice, but Grace had resolutely rejected him every time.

Then he thought of his mother, who was lying in bed at the moment, in a comma. His brows furrowed, his Adam's apple rolled, and he walked out of the room.

His mother had brought him up and always given him the best. But he hadn't been able to give her anything. He only gave his mother loneliness.

When his mother and Grace argued over whether they should to go back to the Morgan family’s villa or stay in their apartment, he took Grace’s side.

Also, when his mother called several times saying that she was not feeling well and that she could not move both her legs, Grace said his mother was lying, and he still took Grace's side and ignored his mother.

When Charlie thought about these things. he felt upset and depressed. He checked on his mother, went to the attending doctor's office, and then he went to the office.

When he entered the lobby of the building, he saw many people in line, and they were all new faces.

Charlie didn't stop, but he casually asked,' Why are there so many people here?"

The assistant replied, "Sir, we're on recruitment. These are all college graduates applying for jobs."

Then Charlie remembered it. He nodded and asked the assistant, "What else is on the schedule today?"

Looking at the schedule, the assistant answered, "No, there's no schedule today. All is scheduled for tomorrow."

Charlie unbuttoned his suit, and his white shirt was exposed.

The assistant knew that since Charlie didn’t have a schedule today, he was going to the interview himself. At the company's annual recruitment, there were always some people getting through the interview via personal contacts, and Charlie was trying to eliminate such things.
