Chapter 1647
Deeply touched, Charlie hugged Mckenzie tightly. He had so much to say, but when he opened his
mouth, only one word came out. "Mom!"
"Don''t get too excited. I must warn you at the outset that I''m not making concessions to her. I''m
doing this for Eaton''s sake, but I still have a lot of grudges against her."
"I''m positive she’ll grow on you. Actually, her bark is worse than her bite. You''ll see that once you
get more acquainted with her.
Mckenzie made no reply to his words.

"You were married to her for several years. How could I not have gotten acquainted with her well
enough? You don''t have to put in good words for her. Nothing will change my opinions of her.
"Also, Be''s a good girl. Since you''ve made up your mind, you should stop wasting her time. I''m
saying this because I don''t want her to wait for you in vain any longer."
Charlie opened his mouth and was just about to speak when Be walked inside, bags in hand. She
brought a lot of gifts with her.
The look in Charlie''s eyes flickered. He nced from Mckenzie to Be before he said candidly,
"You need to stop visiting this ce."
Be''s smile froze on her face at his words.
Even her slightly bent upper body stiffened. She couldn''t understand what he meant.
"Like I said, nothing can stop me from getting back with Grace. I''ve never thought of giving up, and I
should never have said any of those words to you. Please allow me to apologize to you.
"If you keep doing this, she''ll misunderstand. In these circumstances, I can’t afford to allow any
misunderstanding or ident to happen between me and her. Also, you and I should put an end to
the mistake between us."
Charlie put it in an explicit and blunt way.
Be didn''t speak. Instead, she looked at Mckenzie.
"You''re a good girl, and it''s indeed not Grace but you who''s my favorite, but my son''s made up his
mind, and then there''s also Eaton. It''s true I don''t like Grace, but the odds are still in favor of her.
"Previously I kept thinking of letting you stay by Charlie''s side, for if he failed to get back with Grace,
he''d still have you, but now I''ve realized it''s indeed very unfair to you.
"A misfortune has befallen on your mother''s leg, and your father''s in reduced circumstances too.
Yesterday 1 saw your parents. I don''t have the heart to keep being so cruel to you, so please go
and find your own path. Let go of your obsession."
The speaker was Mckenzie.
"I love him. I''m not afraid of waiting. I can wait as long as it takes. I really can!" Be was insistent.
"There are circumstances in which you need to know where the limit is. It''d be best if you know
when to let go, but if you don''t, I''ll show you I have my own ways of dealing with things."
Be felt a throb in her heart as if it were being ripped apart. Was it really necessary for them to put
it this way?
"Women can''t afford to wait that long, and women''s youth is too short, so you need to understand
why I''m doing this, Be, though I also hope you''ll wait and my son will change his mind.
"But there''s no telling if any of those will happen. It all depends on the divine will. If your paths are
meant to cross again, you two will be together—"
Mckenzie still wanted to smooth things over.
But Charlie interrupted her, "It''s gettingte. I''ll have my chauffeur drive her home."
With that he grabbed Be by the arm and strong-armed her out of the Morgan family''s vi.
His chauffeur was already waiting outside. Charlie shoved her into the car. "I was indeed wrong to
give you hope. Now I''m going to shatter all the hopes you''re holding on to. I have no feelings for you
whatsoever. Just go, and don''t evere back!"
Although Mckenzie hadn’t consented to it yet, she was swayed.
And Grace''s attitude towards him had softened a little as well. He couldn’t afford to make even the
slightest mistake at this crucial juncture!
Eventually Be was forced into leaving by the chauffeur.
The chauffeur locked the car doors, and she couldn’t open any of them, no matter how hard she
tried. Her face contorted with
anger.
Charlie always arrived very early to pick her up. He would buy her her favorite breakfast and then
wait in the car. His care and concern for her could be deemed scrupulous.
He always kept in mind her favorite foods and favorite beauty products, and he would buy them all
and deliver them to her whenever he had the chance.
Every day he bought a bouquet of flowers and put it on her desk.
The expression in Grace''s eyes flickered as she looked at the flowers on her desk. Out of the corner
of her eye, she sneaked a nce at him...
Now Charlie could take almost everything into consideration. He was meticulous. No matter
whether Grace could think of it or not, Charlie always covered all the bases.
Be had called in sick, and she hadn''te to thepany for four or five days. She had been
sleeping at home all along, and she hadn''t even been eating.
Her mother pushed open the door of Be''s room and called Be''s name in a low voice, a frown on
her face.
Be ignored her mother and pulled the quilt over her head to block out her mother''s voice.
Nobody could get through to her, and she didn’t want to hear anybody''s voice. All she wanted was
to stay in her room alone.
"You can''t stay at home away from thepany forever, can you?"
"Why should I go to thepany?"
This time Be abruptly threw back the covers and sat up. "There''s deep enmity between the new
president and me. How am I supposed to work in there when he keeps harassing me?"
Her mother stiffened. She hadn''t bargained on hearing about this. After giving it some thought, she
said, "Did Charlie call you in the past few days?"
"No."
Be''s chest was heaving in and out. There hadn’t even been a text message from him, let alone a
phone call.
"He''s always been a good entrepreneur, hasn’t he? And he''s quite business-savvy too. Now that
you can''t stand working in thatpany, you might as well go and start a business with him." "Start
a business?" A grim smile touched Be''s lips. "His mind ispletely upied by Grace. He''s
been working as a babysitter and a chauffeur for her at the same time. He''s rushed off his feet.
There''s no way he can spare a thought for something like this."
Her mother furrowed her brows. "He''s given all the shares in the Morgan group to Grace and her
child, hasn''t he? Is he not anxious at all? That''s a huge enterprise. He''s really okay with that?"
"He''s totally okay with it, and he doesn''t care at all. The other day I was worried that he might be
upset about hispany, and I suggested starting a business with him, but he’spletely
uninterested."
After hearing her words, her motherpsed into silence.
"I''m not afraid of suffering hardships or setbacks, as long as he puts his mind to it, but he has no
intention of doing that whatsoever, so no matter how hard I try, all my efforts will be in vain." Be
was really heartbroken.
