"You sleep downstairs." Grace said in a cold tone as she threw a pillow and blanket at Jackson. She didn't care about the man's condition because her heart was numb. In the past she would have treated Jackson very well. If Jackson refused to sleep in the same bed with her, she would give in by sleeping on the sofa. However, this time was different; she didn't want to give in at all. Moreover, Margaret already knew their habits, so she prepared a room without a sofa in it.

Margaret thought Jackson and Grace would soften a bit by sleeping together. In fact, not at all.

Jackson stared at Grace with such a sharp look, his forehead furrowed at the woman. He wondered to himself why Grace seemed so different. He was a little uncomfortable with the change in Grace's attitude this time.

"Do you have no conscience at all by asking sick people to sleep on the floor?" Jackson didn't accept that at all.

"My conscience is dead to you." Grace pulled back the blanket, lay down, and closed her eyes. S

    "Let me help you, sir." A man who was Margaret's personal driver ran over. He helped Jackson to step onto the sofa in the front room and set him down on it. Grace and Margaret followed behind and sat on the other side of the sofa.Not long after, Doctor Erick finally arrived with his medical equipment. He did an examination by unbuttoning Jackson's shirt.Grace gulped when she saw Jackson's perfectly formed abdominal muscles. She had never seen those sexy abs so clearly. This was because they lived in different rooms. When Jackson fucked her a few months ago, the room lights weren't on either. So, this was the first time she saw her husband's abs.Seeing those muscles, Grace's mind started to wander. She began to imagine what it would be like if she could touch those abs. As a mature woman thirsty for caresses, her arousal was slightly aroused by that. She began to imagine what it would be like if she made love to Jackson while she was conscious. However, she quickly dismissed the tho

    "I'm glad you can finally come here. I've been waiting for you." Margaret said with a smile. She inhaled the flowers Jackson had given her over and over again. The old woman felt very peaceful every time she inhaled the scent of red roses.Grace was indeed the most understanding person to her. She knew Grace bought the flowers even though Jackson gave them to her. This was because Jackson never came with gifts whenever she visited her."Stay here tonight." Margaret looked at Jackson and Grace in turn. She had a plan of her own. She wanted to make Jackson and Grace's relationship closer and better."I can't, Grandma. I have to work tomorrow morning; I have a lot of files to clean up tonight." Jackson immediately refused without hesitation. He didn't want to be bothered with a full night's work. Especially if he had to stay overnight there, he and Grace would definitely be sleeping in the same bed. He didn't want to spend the night with a woman he didn't like.Margaret turned to look at

    "You eat a lot, so you'll be healthy soon." Jackson said with great tenderness. He put the chicken pieces onto Claire's plate. The handsome man looked so caring and sweet.All this time Grace thought that Jackson had a cold and unromantic personality. However, after seeing what was in front of her eyes, she realized that it wasn't Jackson's personality that was wrong, but his feelings for her. Jackson had never loved her, so he had never been kind to her.Grace sighed harshly. She no longer cared about their relationship. She was numb to Jackson. Her only reason for staying in the house was because of Margaret's request."I'm sorry, Claire. My presence here must have disturbed you. I also didn't mean to take Jack's attention away from you, but I was sick and needed to be cared for." Claire said in such a weak tone. She sounded so guilty. The expression on her face also showed that she felt bad for Grace. However, deep in her heart she felt very happy because she was always the winner.

    "Where are you? I've been waiting for you since earlier. The office will be closing soon, and tomorrow is the weekend. We'll have to wait two more days if we want to come here again." Jackson's tone was full of annoyance. He had been waiting there for four hours. He had sent messages repeatedly, but there was no reply. He had also called dozens of times, only to be answered by Grace on this call."I've thought about it; I don't want a divorce." Grace replied weakly and hesitantly. She really wanted to get out of Jackson's grasp as soon as possible, but she had her considerations. Jackson's grandmother was old, and she only asked Grace to stay a little longer.Perhaps Margaret had a point. If she stayed and was patient for a while longer, perhaps Jackson's attitude towards her would change. She only had to wait a few months for her child to be born. There was no way Jackson's heart wouldn't be touched when he saw his own flesh and blood."Canceled? What do you mean? You asked for this

    "I heard you and Jackson are getting a divorce. Have you thought it through? I don't want to force you to stay, but are you sure you want to divorce him? You didn't even tell me you were pregnant. If Jackson hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known." Margaret spoke with great tenderness. From her tone, she sounded disappointed at the news of Jackson's divorce plans with Grace.Grace sighed harshly. In the Forest family, Margaret was the only one who accepted her so well. The old woman was the only one who considered her family. Jackson's parents would have preferred Claire to be their daughter-in-law, but they couldn't oppose Margaret's arranged marriage. Like it or not, they had to accept Grace as their daughter-in-law.Helena and Ethan were never rude to Grace, but they were very cold towards her. They saw her as an obstacle to Jackson's happiness."I've thought about it, Grandma. Jack has suffered a lot from being forced into a marriage he didn't want. I realized that the only woman h
