M —ary's words made the Gracy stop in her tracks, and turn to look at her.. She hurriedly put the big and small bags on the tea table and was about to pour her some water.
Gracy glanced at her bedroom. Her son seemed to be asleep on the bed, so she didn't go in to disturb him and sat down on the sofa.
Mary ran to the kitchen to wash the cups.
Gracy looked inside the bag she was shopping in, and then her eyes fell on a small bag that was specially made for her. She casually took it out and looked, and her expression immediately changed.
Mary washed her hands and walked out of the kitchen. Just as she was about to pour water for her, she suddenly saw that Gracy was holding the medicine that she had just bought, and her entire body froze.
"You take this every day?" Gracy's tone was full of mockery as she threw the medicine onto the table. "You're still young, so you should know a little about this matter."
Mary's mind was momentarily blank. She forced herself to smile, and still went to pour Gracy a cup of water. Walking over, she placed it in front of her, then quickly kept the medicine inside her bag.
"Auntie, please don't judge me." Mary self-deprecatingly lowered her head.
"Your mother and I can be considered to have grown up together. I have no objections to you two, mother and daughter, but you really shouldn't have pestered my son. Mary, honestly, I was too surprised. Gracy raised her cup and took a sip of water, a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
Mary nervously pinched her fingers. Maybe she was too young, and was afraid of the elders unconsciously.
"Gracy I really like him. Can you give me a chance..."
"I'm sorry, I do wish for my son to get married and have children as soon as possible, but I really cannot accept someone who hasn't even reached the age of marriage. Do you want my son to wait for you for a few more years? I don't know how your mother feels, but I really can't take it." The determination in Gracy's tone caused Mary's beautiful face to turn pale.
She bit her lower lip, trying hard to suppress the sadness that welled up in her.
"Leo is asleep, I will go out!" Mary suddenly said softly, after that, she picked up her bag and left.
Mary leaned onto the elevator wall weakly, her mind was in a mess. Gracy's words were like a slap to her face, making her feel extremely embarrassed. That's right, she wasn't even old enough to get married yet she was already living with a man. She clearly didn't say any curses, but why did she feel so uncomfortable listening to them? Had she really done something wrong?
Mary's eyes started to tear up, she tried her best to hold back her tears, she just couldn't extricate herself from liking a man, what was wrong with that?
Leo woke up around 11 PM. His hangover made him dizzy. Instinctively, he shouted, "Mary, give me a glass of water!" Just as he was feeling dizzy, a glass of water was handed to him and he took it.
"Drink it, you still have the strength to fight back!" The voice of the Gracy above him woke Leo up from his shock. He held onto the cup tightly, and his intoxicated eyes quickly widened.
"Mom?" He could not believe that the person who poured water for him was his mother. The next second, he quickly pulled the blanket up to his chest.
Gracy laughed mockingly: "I'm your mother. Don’t be shy."
Leo's handsome face was full of awkwardness as he asked with a flushed face, "Mom, why are you here? "Where's Mary?"
"Oh, she has left!" Gracy replied indifferently.
