During this period, she learned how to knit a sweater, and she planned to knit one for Eaton and one for Andrew.
Someone was knocking on the door of the room. Andrew walked over and saw Charlie through the peephole. Then he turned around and said to Grace, "It's your ex-husband. Should I open the door?"
"No." Grace refused flatly.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course." Grace didn't even look up.
Shrugging his shoulders, Andrew didn't believe her words. If Charlie stood outside for a long time, he guessed that Grace would allow Charlie to come in.
Immediately afterwards, Charlie called Grace, but she didn't answer his call and continued to knit the sweater.
Then, Andrew's phone rang, and it was also Charlie. Andrew said, "Hello!"
"Please tell her that I'll wait for her outside the hotel tonight until she is willing to see me."
"You’ve beaten me. Do you think it's possible that I will help you? I’m not that kind.”
Without any hesitation, Charlie said directly, "I will let you beat me. Don't worry.
Finally, Andrew agreed and told Charlie's words to Grace. But she didn't look up and continued knitting.
Lazily shrugging his shoulders, Andrew didn't believe that Grace would be so cold. He would wait and see if she would feel sorry in the end.
Charlie stood outside the hotel. Facing the hotel window, he leaned against the car and waited.
Grace did not speak.
