Charlie couldn't argue with her. It was true that currently, he had no job. He was now jobless, not much different from a tramp.
Seeing Charlie was silent, Grace asked languidly, her eyes blinking, "Now you must regret giving me the company shares, but what's done is done. There's no time machine in this world."
"I wish there was a time machine..."
Charlie eased his voice, his tone softening," If we could go back to the past, I would never make that mistake again."
Grace had subtle amazement. But she was still smiling, "When a man pursues a woman, he always makes those wonderful promises."
"Grace..."
Charlie felt helpless. Grace couldn’t listen to a single word he said. She taunted him, mocked him, and would never believe him.
Grace ignored him. She was feeding Eaton his milk. She didn't look at Charlie.
Charlie came to the hotel every day, and the hotel staff had grown accustomed to him. He always stayed at the hotel all day.
Mckenzie was worried. She couldn't watch Charlie go on like this!
Charlie was a grown man. How could he do nothing all day and not work?
Charlie reassured her, "Mom, think about it. If Dad were still with us, what would he choose between the company and Eaton?"
Charlie's father always loved children.
Mckenzie patted her son on the shoulder," But you can't keep wasting your time like this. And what are you going to do about Bella?"
"I’ve said everything I need to say to her," Charlie said.
"I think you should still keep seeing her. Grace doesn't care about you. How long are you going to wait for her? Bella is a good girl. If Grace won't get back with you, you should take Bella."
