Chapter 1040


    "Forget it. You should take a good rest. But you''re young and strong. I think you''ll recover soon.


    Promise me that if I get sick in the future, you must take good care of me!"


    Charlie nodded, "You have my word."


    At this moment, Billy wriggled on the sofa and looked very ufortable.


    Charlie nced at him and said, "Are you ufortable?"


    Billy nodded, "It''s hard to describe. Sometimes I feel pain."


    Charlie said, "You should also go for a checkup."


    Billy shook his head, "Not now. I''ll get it checked out when I go back to Santabaca. As long as we''ve


    reached the contract agreement, I''ll have plenty of time for it."


    "We''re in the hospital now. You can ask a doctor to check you. Besides, this is A thana. It doesn''t


    matter if your condition is exposed. No one is interested in it. It''s different from Santabaca. This


    hospital is very famous. I think the doctors are as skillful as Dr. Zack." While saying that, Charlie


    directly asked the nurse to find a doctor for Billy.


    Billy agreed helplessly. Afterwards, he went to the examination room with the doctor.


    It didn''t took Billy long to have the checkup, but he had to wait for the result. He went back to


    Charlie''s ward.


    Charlie asked, "How is it?"


    Billy said, "I will get the result in a few hours."


    Charlie said, "As the saying in Santabaca goes, ''A bad person lives long.'' You will surely live a long


    life since you are such a bad person. I believe there is nothing serious with you."


    Billy frowned, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Thanks, but you don''t have to try to make me feel


    better."


    "Well, you may be heartless, but believe me, there must be nothing serious with you." Charlie


    comforted Billy by patting his shoulder.


    In Santabaca.


    There was still no news about Merlin. Kingsley had Lee keep an eye out for the transportation she


    took every day.


    Kingsley was busy all day at his newpany. He wanted to run apany that dealt in children''s


    products in Santabaca.


    Sherman was at home. Grace went there.


    Sherman asked, "Did you have a fight with Charlie''s mother?"


    "We haven''t quarreled these days. She''s been busy with worktely, so she doesn''t have time to


    pay attention to me," said Grace. Sitting on the balcony, she sipped her coffee in the sun.


    Charlie''s mother opened a restaurant in Santabaca a long time ago. It was very popr, and many


    people went there every day. Some of the secret recipes were ancestral to her own family. Since


    she didn''t want them to be exposed, she could only cook food herself.


    Sherman thought that it was probably for the best in that there would be less conflict between Grace


    and Charlie''s mother. Therefore, Grace wouldn''t be in a bad mood and go out for drinks.


    Sherman didn''t mention the woman they had met in the restaurant.


    Grace felt very bored with life. Sherman asked her to g o to work. But she didn''t want to be


    constrained. She liked free and creative work.


    Both Sherman and Grace felt a bit bored, so they went shopping. They didn''t buy anything but


    wandered around and ate something.


    In the afternoon, Kingsley called Sherman and asked where she was.

    Sherman told him about it. After a while, Kingsley drove the silver Mulsanne there. With a slight


    smile o n his thin lips, he said, "Hi, Ms. Livingston."


    Grace beamed from ear to ear.
