Chapter 581


    "Never mind. Don''t say anything. Come back to my apartment." Grace held Charlotte with one hand


    and then took over the suitcase with the other.


    Summer followed her from behind. There were streetlights on both sides of the dark street, but none o f


    their lights could shine into her heart.


    Suddenly thinking of something, she grabbed Grace:" Your apartment? I am not going." She thought of


    something and stopped Grace.


    "Where are you going if not my apartment?"


    "There are many hotels." She could go to any of them and settle Charlotte and herself.


    "My apartment is vacant. Don''t feel that you will disturb Charlie and me. If you still insist on going to a


    hotel, we will no longer be friends."


    Since Grace said her presence would not disturb her and Charlie, she gave in. She said nothing much,


    and was basically silent along the way.


    The environment of the apartment was very good. The only downside was that it was dirty inside.


    It was extremely dirty.


    The dust on the settee covers were almost unsightly.


    Grace gave a little cough, leaning against the settee in her long dress. There was no embarrassment


    on her gorgeous face. "I look gorgeous on the outside but messy on the inside. Could you two please


    clean up the ce, if you don''t mind?” she sounded like it was a matter of course.


    Charlotte turned around and scanned the apartment several times. "Do you live in a sty, Aunt Grace?"


    Grace had no words for what she heard, and she pinched Charlotte''s face. "Do you know what a sty is?


    My apartment is much cleaner than those of others. This is art."


    Summer needed to keep herself busy to divert her attention from the mental pain. Without a word, she


    went to get a bucket of water and started tidying things up.


    "Give your mommy a hand." She patted Charlotte on the hip.

    Charlotte did what was told. Grace watched on and felt sorry for the mother and daughter.


    Her phone rang at this moment. Grace looked down at the caller ID and walked to the balcony to


    answer it.


    "Have you taken them there?” The voice was deep and familiar; it was Mark''s voice.


    "They are here. But then again, why didn''t you ask someone to clean up the ce since you spent so


    much to buy such an up-scale apartment? Do you


    know what Charlotte said? She said I was living in a sty."


    The breathing sound at the other end sounded shallow, and Mark said after a pause, "It is better to


    keep her busy to divert her attention."


    He deliberately found a dirty apartment. Sometimesbor was a form of venting and a means of


    diverting attention. At least, she would not think too much.


    "Uh-huh." As long as it was about Summer, he was willing to do anything for her.


    "She is also my friend. I can''t take advantage of her. I will hang up now."


    "I am worried about her. Stay with her tonight. Thank you," Mark quickly said.


    Grace had never known Mark to be so polite. So she agreed at once. Besides, she was also worried


    about Summer.


    Mark hung up after thanking Grace.
