Charles warned himself that after a month they would go a separate?way, so he wouldn't look into everything about Grace.
He doesn't care about her. Why he should investigate her?
Grace slept with Charles at his villa every night, and neither of them asked about each other.
Grace would hide from Charles and send a message to the doctor. Charles pretended not to see it. but on several occasions, he saw Grace delete the message after she read it.
If it's not an unusual relationship, why should her delete?
He was so curious that every time when he wanted to check her phone when she was sleeping, he failed. Because she turned it off to sleep, and you needed code to turn on. He couldn’t turn it on with only fingerprints, he could only turn off her cell phone again.
It was just strange that since Grace came back, even if the stress of work has been so great and Charles forgot to take sleeping pills, he could fall asleep.
And slept till dawn.
Grace got up before him and never disturbed him.
Charles wanted to get up earlier than Grace to see what she would done after she got up. But when he woke up, there would be no one around.
He felt something was wrong with his mind. He wanted to spend this month happily, but occasionally he began to worry when he thought that the time was passing day by day.
What if Grace was still short of money?
It would be good if she didn’t gamble. When gambling, money would be lost without bottomless. If she lose all the money, would she sleep with other to offset the debt?
Charles lost sleep again when he thought of the problem.
He finally knew when did Grace get up. She was brushing her teeth, washing her face, dressing herself. She came towards the bed and stood next to him. He felt her approach, her lips kissed on his forehead, "Good morning."
She turned around and left.
He lay stiff in bed, motionless.
Was that how she left every morning?
The heart was tight, stuffy and painful.
Grace had not returned to Charles's villa at ten o'clock the night before the one-month deadline.
Charles was a bit upset. He wanted to call her but he felt that it would be degraded.
It was almost 12. Charles was about to call when the lock on the door was unlocked.
Today, Grace wear casually. She wore flat shoes and walked in,slowly.
She brought some vegetables here and went into the living room. She saw him sitting on the sofa watching the news on his cell phone. She smiled and said, "Not sleeping yet? I bought some vegetables. How about cooking night snack for you? "
Grace never cooked for him in this month.
She took everything out of the green bag. It was very sumptuous.
This was not the night snack. This is the last dinner.
It turned out that she was pinching time too.
Charles did not say a word. He stood up and went upstairs, "I don’t eat the night snack."
"It's all right. I’ll make it. You can try it tomorrow. If you don't like it, you can dump it."
Her voice, as always, was so light that you could not even felt a little reluctance.
As she washed the vegetables, she said to herself, "Celery leaves and scrambled eggs, haven't you eaten? I heard from my cellmate in prison. I have never made it. Try it. "
"Tomato is good. If anything doesn't taste good, just put it in and it will taste good."
"You should eat more beef. It is rich of calcium."
"I’ve heard from my cellmate that crucian carp should be fried and the soup cooked with it will be milky white and be more fragrant."
Charles didn't leave. He was immobile as if he had been fixed. He watched Grace cook the dishes one by one and then put them on the table one by one.
She was poor at cooking. Some dishes are too salty and some are too light, but he also ate a lot.
While lying in bed, instead of crawling on Charles's body as usual, Grace lay still today. Charles got on her and she didn't be coquettish as usual. She said, "I’m not feeling good today. Please do it softly."
She spoke as if she were protecting something.
Charles did not want to sleep, but this month he slept quite well. He got a feeling?of?security.
Grace got up carefully.
She brushed her teeth and washed her face, and dressed herself. She looked at herself in the mirror with her palms touching her stomach.
Pregnant, she finally got pregnant. She could save Doudou.
From now on, they went on a separate way.
Grace walked to the bedside of Charles. This time, she was no longer kissing his forehead like every morning, but looking at his handsome face. Her eyes went moist.
"Charles, I’ll never see you again!"
When Charles woke up, subconsciously he touched the bedside and only to find emptiness.
He sat up quickly and got out of bed. This month, Grace's toiletries were put here, and the servant also prepared slippers for her.
And now these things were gone.
The toothbrush and the cup were taken away.
It’s been a month. It was over.
He thought that when the day came, his mind would not be disturbed. He just had to work as usual. But as the time went on, his mind grew more and more confused.
Unable to sleep at night, he had to find out his sleeping pills and took them again.
The money he gave her could be squandered for a while. He knew that she was generous and would come back to him when she had no money.
But she didn’t. She hadn't called him for three months.
Sitting in the CEO's office, Charles looked at his assistant and said, "Did Grace contact you?"
"No."
"Are there any news about her?"
"No, sir. The money you gave her last time was enough for her to buy a car, a house and live a good life. You don't have to worry."
"If she gamble, no matter how much money are there, she will spend all of it. Check to see if she gamble recently, or be with other people?"
Charles himself refused to admit that his biggest concern was that if Grace had found another backer.
A woman like her, not to mention the ability to work, with her perfect appearance, how can no man be willing to spend money on her?
Half an hour later, the assistant walked into Charles's office. "President, Grace left the city three months ago. No news about her."
Charles stood up quickly.
What do you mean by no news?
Gone forever?
His back sweat. The robust body could not help shaking. He clenched his fist on the table, "OK, don’t check her anymore. I don’t care whether she is dead or alive!"
Charles walked out of the office and felt as if he had stepped in the clouds. He had not felt so serious even if he had sent Grace to prison.
The car drove all the way to the prison. Charles got off the car, looking at the iron gate wall. Two years and seven months, the woman stayed inside for his father atonement.
That was what they owe him!
He didn't have to feel guilty!
What kind of man slept with her? He had to kill him!
Charles spent?every?ounce?of?energy and failed to find out who had slept with Grace. But he found out that Grace gave birth to a baby girl in prison. The medical record at the time of the caesarean section was written that a kidney was missing.
It was supplement that the kidney was transplanted at the age of 23.
The object being transported was...
