“You are so gorgeous.” Kern said.
She was stunned by his words.
Now she still held his hand.
Kern quite enjoyed this moment so he would like to be held hands by Grace longer time. Her hands
were soft enough to spread his joy to all over the body. He even felt much better than being done a
Thai massage.
Grace said, “Pardon me? Mr. Lo.”
Kern repeated it with great pleasure, “You are so gorgeous.”
Grace looked annoyed with his answer and said, “Get off the car.”
“Ah?”
She ignored it and extended her hand to open the door at Kern’s side of the car. “Get off.” she said
calmly.
Kern was confused with her response; he supposed all women should be excited with appreciation.
Or at least be a little bit shy?
Hum…
Grace asked again, “Will you get off or not?”
Kern kept shaking his head…get off? Impossible.
Grace did not talk more, just said, “Ok. I am getting off.”
Kern looked at her opening the door to get off the car… “Hey! You really do it?” He tried to hold on her
hands to keep her in.
Yet when he saw her eyes, he knew she would do it for sure.
Grace watched Kern to say, without any emotion, “Mr. Lo. Let me go.”
At the beginning, Kern was some of heartbroken by her unconcerned look. Soon later, he turned to be
angry with her. At last, he pulled her back to the seat instead of letting her go.
Grace did not expect it and hit on Kern’s chest by such a strong force. Now she was so close to him
that could felt his breath.
Kern asked, “Boss, I don’t know what you are angry with? Definitely, I think you are beautiful. It annoys
you? That doesn’t make sense.”
Grace refuted, “Are you kidding me? Mr. Lo. You like to date with lots of different women? I already
forgot what happened before. But now what are you doing?”
He was the weird one.
She was beautiful?
What kind of beauty?
She knew very well about her appearance.
Grace had fringe in the early years to block her wound on the forehead. After she opened Memory Inn,
her fringe grew longer which she combed in the back. There was a long wound…beautiful?
He should be a born play boy who got used to dating every woman he met.
Otherwise, he was not serious with her at all. She hated either way.
Kern said, “Who says? Who says I like to date a lot of women?” He believed Grace only loved Caden
Shaw so that any other man admiring her would be a lecher to her.
Just now, he truly considered she was extremely charming.
In fact, he did not realize he started to be envious.
Grace kept trying to leave Kern’s arms, but he pushed her back to the seat and said, “If you think I am
not serious with you, now listen, Grace, I am in love with you. Don’t you know?”
“…” Grace did not say anything but froze for a while.
Kern was badly envious about Caden but could not mention the name to her, “I would like to stay with
you; I think you are really beautiful. Am I wrong?”
He rushed to tell Grace he loved her because he saw how she was indifferent to him. This was his first
time to do this. He did it in this way for the first time in all of his life, but she would not like to accept
him…she could not fall in love with anyone else in the future?
Kern did not understand why he felt heartbroken for the time being. This was also the first time for him
to have the type of feeling.
Grace sighed and said, “Mr. Lo. Stop joking me.”
“This is not a joke. Never!” Kern did not talk more. He cuddled Grace in her arms and kissed her hard.
He tried to catch Grace’s sweet and soft lips, yet soon…
“Hoo…”
The miserable Kern yelled at the hurt and loosed her a little; right now, he did not expect to be pushed
down by Grace to the ground outside the car.
Sitting there, Kern did not believe Grace did that to him and trembly pointed to her… she was certainly
a badass!
She bit him and pushed him out of the car.
Grace sneered at him. Before Kern stood up, she closed the car door and locked it.
“Hey! Hey!” Kern kept yelling.
Grace swung down some of the car window to say, “Mr. Lo is always energetic. You can walk home.”
After a sneer, she swung up the window again and drove away in front of Kern, leaving him with wide-
opened eyes there.
When knowing what to do, he hurried to chase her car, “Hey, Grace! You really leave me here? Wait for
me! Wait!”
“Hey! Grace, can you drive? Your hurt leg.”
“Grace. Stop…”
Poor Kern ran to follow the car not driving so fast; even this, he would be totally exhausted to catch up
her.
Grace glanced at her own legs and thought for a couple of seconds, suddenly accelerated the car.
Finally, the car turned in a corner to leave Kern behind.
Under a tree after the corner, Grace used an APP of her phone to call a driver.
She waited on the back seat of the car for a few minutes. Someone knocked at the window to ask,
“Hello, you call a driver?”
She answered, “Yes, I will go to Erhai. Get on the car.” and unlocked the door. As soon as the driver
was ready to get on, somebody squeezed in the car before him.
Kern took out of breath and stared at Grace, “You are not aware of danger? Call a stranger driver. You
never read the news about illegal drivers? You did not check his license, just let him get on the car. You
are nothing to yourself?”
Speakers talked about something by accident, but listeners paid great attention.
Grace had a look at Kern standing here.
Then she saw his hairs which some sweat flew through to the neck…she asked, “You…ran here?”
Grace should know it, still asked such a silly question. Kern could not do anything but get his wallet to
pay the driver. Unluckily, there was no money left. It occurred to him that he spent all of his money in
the tea set shops just a moment ago.
He was so generous that took off his watch to give to the driver, “Keep the tips. No need to drive for
us.”
Then he got on the car and closed the door.
“Grace…” Kern turned back to say, “Grace, my fault.”
Grace thought twice and nodded with seeing him like this, “Ok. No more.”
“Yes.”
It was true that he should not be in a rush; he should make it step by step.
Grace said, “Don’t amuse me anymore. This is a not funny joke to me.”
Kern loved to admit his mistake now and said, “Yes. I see. It’s not funny at all.”
Of course, not funny. This was not his joke at all…
Grace did not think more since Kern asked for her forgiveness with great sincerity…Let it be. He was
just a guest of Memory Inn who was not different from all the other guests there. He would stop
temporarily and surely left her life soon.
Who would remember her or be remembered by her after leaving the Memory Inn?
Who would care about the happenings on those days?
