Chapter 1690


    Grace was back when it was getting dark. Charlie was not in the vi, so Grace asked Andrew.


    But Andrew had no clue where Charlie was because Andrew had been with Eaton. "I have no idea. He may be wandering in the nearby park.”


    Charlie was still not back when Grace and Andrew had their dinner. It was already night and it was very dark.


    Grace sat on the couch with her legs crossed. She looked at Andrew with frowned eyebrows. "The nearby park? Are you sure?"


    Andrew answered with his back against a chair, "Not really. Charlie didn''t tell me where he went, and I didn’t ask him."


    Grace raised her wrist and looked at her watch. It was around half-past nine. She worried about Charlie who went out withoutpany.


    And Charlie lost his walking ability, so he had been confined to a wheelchair. This made Grace more worried


    Grace got anxious. She kept moving her nce between her watch and the darkness outside the window,


    Andrew stared at Grace.


    He took his coat on the couch with frowned brows about ten minutester. "I''ll find him."


    But just as Andrew walked to the door of the vi, Charlie was back.


    Charlie made his wheelchair move with his hands slowly and hardly. Grace looked in the direction of Andrew, who was stunned by Charlie''s sudden


    appearance.


    "Where have you been?" Grace shouted with anger in a grumpy tone


    "I shopped for Eaton in a shopping mall,” Charlie answered.


    “Shopping?”


    Grace stood up suddenly and looked


    at Charliein the wheelchair. Grace’ S


    tone sguinded angry, "You could just


    tell us; couldn''t you? We have been


    wortted about you for as longas you


    hawe been out."


    -Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    "We think you have died out there.


    But as I have told you, you can''t dié


    here inFrance because I don''t. want


    to take-responsibility for that. You


    can.disappear as you want when we


    go-pack to Santabaca. By the way.


    Eaton will not like what you have bought, so don''t bother.”


    Grace kept saying words that sounded cruel to Charlie. After saying these angry words, Grace went upstairs without a nce at Charlie.


    Charlie was stunned while sitting in his wheelchair.


    He had suffered more on this day than he had in all the years before.


    This meant to be hisst meeting with Grace. Charlie tried to make things go well between Grace and him. But Grace’s words were beyond Charlie''s


    wildest imagination.


    “Don''t take it seriously. She has been in a bad mood because of her period.” Andrew told Charlie while shrugging.


    "Well then," Charlie whispered. But


    he still felt pain because of not just


    Grace''s reaction but also Andrew’ a


    close rtionship with Grace. He~


    wondered why Andrew knew Grace''s


    peristh Charlie held the handte of his


    wheelchair tightly. Content belongs


    to  a)


    But in fact, Andrew was just saying. He didn''t know Grace''s period. He said it just to ease the atmosphere.


    And the one Grace cared about was Charlie. Otherwise, she wouldn''t be angry with a man whe had spent half a day outside in his wheelchair.


    Charlie thought it oppositely. He thought there must be something between Andrew and Grace because Andrew knew Grace''s period.


    Several mall attendants behind Charlie moved all things that Charlie had bought inside. One would regard it as housemoving because there were a


    dozen boxes.


    Even Andrew was surprised by the extravagant shopping. "Have you bought a mall?”
