Chapter 45 That was her one month's salary

Grace briefly embraced him for a moment, then released Jovanny and smiled at him, saying, "Let's go home."

Jovanny stared at her blankly for a while before coming back to his senses and asking, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, you've worked hard at work. Go home, I'll make something delicious for you when you get back," Grace handed him the helmet, with a bright smile on her face.

He must be feeling very down now, we shouldn't discourage him.

Jovanny furrowed his brows as he realized that he was becoming more and more unable to understand this woman.

He took the helmet and sat on Grace's electric bike.

Grace went back to the market and bought a lot of delicious vegetables. She cooked a table full of food, and Philip thought there must be something good happening.

When Jovanny went to the bathroom, Philip grabbed Grace and asked with a smile, "Did something good happen for you to prepare such a sumptuous dinner tonight?"

Grace glanced in the direction of the restroom and whispered to Philip, "Grandpa, I heard someone say that Jovanny failed his interview, so when you talk to him, try not to be too serious, so he doesn't feel worse."

Philip had just taken a sip of tea when he heard this sentence and immediately spat it out.

Grace hurriedly gave him a pat on the back, "Grandpa, are you okay?"

Philip's face turned red, he put down the teacup, waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

After a moment's pause, Philip asked, "Who did you hear it from?"

"Our colleague from our company, her boyfriend works at Jovanny's company, and he asked about it at work."

Philip touched his nose and looked particularly strange. "Oh, I see. Grandpa knows now."

"We two should be the only ones who know about this matter. Don't mention it and hurt him."

Philip couldn't hold back his laughter anymore and nodded, "Hmm, hmm, okay, I won't tell him."

Grace sighed and said, "But I believe that he is so excellent, he will definitely find a better job, so Grandpa, don't worry too much. Besides, I have a job now, and the money I earn is enough for us to spend."

Philip coughed and said, "Hmm, hmm, you are such a good child."

Grace heard his praise and smiled shyly.

After Jovanny came out, Grace conscientiously avoided discussing this topic and stayed with Philip for a while before going back.

Jovanny was about to leave when Philip suddenly called out to him.

"Jovanny, wait a moment."

Jovanny paused and turned around to look at Philip.

"Come over here, I have something to tell you."

Jovanny fell back again and sat down beside him, "What's the matter?"

Philip was a little hesitant and hesitated for a while before speaking, "Jovanny, when did you go to see your dad?"

Before Jovanny could speak, Philip said, "If you don't go see him, he might come looking for you. You don't want anyone to know about your marriage to Grace, and you don't want her to know about your identity. But if your father comes, he will definitely meet Grace. Let's see how you handle that situation."

Jovanny was originally going to refuse, but upon hearing Philip's words, he suddenly fell silent.

Philip patted his arm and urged, "Go and see him, after all, he is your father. You can't avoid him forever, can you?"

"I got it, I will make time to go there."

"That's right," Philip's face finally relaxed, but then he seemed to think of something again. He sighed, "Grace is a good girl, you must hold on to her."

"Grandpa, you told me ten sentences and praised her eight times. What is it about her that makes you value her so much?"

Philip said, "You can feel it yourself slowly. Even if I tell you, you won't believe it. But let me tell you, do you know why she cooked so many dishes tonight?"

"Why?"

"Because she didn't know where she heard it from, she wanted to make a delicious meal to comfort you, as she heard that you were laid off by the company. She even told me not to mention this matter to you, as she wants to support you."

Jovanny's mouth twitched slightly as he finally came to his senses. He felt upset that she had given him a hug and bought so much delicious food as soon as they met today.

He thought it was her plan that had been approved, and he wanted to celebrate for her.

"Okay, I got it. I went first."

Philip laughed when he heard the words, "You, kid, couldn't catch up before, and now you're so aware?"

Jovanny paused for a moment, lost in thought, and then returned to the next door.

Before entering the door, Lily also came back. It seemed like she had gone shopping, as she was carrying big and small bags in her hands.

"I'm exhausted." Lily threw those things onto the ground and collapsed onto the sofa.

Laurie walked over upon seeing the situation and awkwardly asked, "Lily, what did you buy?"

Lily smiled at Laurie upon hearing her words, picking up the things from the ground and placing them on the table. "I bought a few clothes. Isn't it almost winter? Auntie, do you think this piece of clothing looks good?"

She gestured with the clothes on herself, it was a brown coat.

"Looks good, looks expensive, right?"

"Not expensive, only 800 dollars. Is this one nice-looking?"

Lily was busy showing off her clothes and didn't notice Laurie's disappointed expression. "How can a piece of clothing be so expensive?" Laurie thought to herself. After all, her monthly salary was only 900 dollars.

Laurie had little education and worked as a laborer with her uncle at the construction site. She earned 900 dollars a month, while her uncle earned over 1,000 dollars a month when things were going well. However, during the tough times, they would go for several months without any work.

In Lily's eyes, 800 dollars didn't seem expensive, but in Laurie's eyes, it was her monthly salary.

Lily took out all those clothes and showed them off. They were all bought for herself, not a single one was bought for Laurie and them.

Grace sat there, holding a water cup in her hands, stealing glances at Laurie's expression.

Laurie maintained an awkward smile on her face, even though she was unhappy with Lily's behavior, she didn't dare to say anything.

Who made Lily a college student, and her own son is a loser who is already in his thirties and hasn't married a wife yet. She doesn't dare to say anything.

"So all these things together don't amount to ten or twenty thousand? Lily, where did you get so much money?"

Lily paused for a moment and chuckled, "Of course, it was given by my dad. He cares about me, what's the matter?"

"No, it's nothing, I'm fine, the clothes look nice," Laurie turned around and sighed sadly.

Lily caught sight of Grace over there and waved at her, saying, "Cousin, come over here."

Grace quickly put down the water cup and asked, "What's wrong, sister-in-law?"

"What do you think of the clothes I bought?"

"It looked quite nice, very tasteful."

Lily smiled and glanced at her, "Can you do me a favor? Help me bring it back to the house. I need to go out later."

Grace exclaimed, "You're going out so late?"

"What time is it? The nightlife has just begun, don't you want to go together? I can introduce you to a few sisters."

Grace's smile became a little stiff as she listened to Lily's destination, "Where are you going?"

"Bar, you haven't been there, have you?"
