Chapter 1000
Joanna and Grace were deep in conversation.
Darcy walked into the ward with a pile of documents. “The discharge procedures have been completed. We can
leave now.”
“Grace, are you going to Venturas now or are you going somewhere else?
“Why don’t you come home with me?”
Grace shook her head. “No, I want to go home first.
“After Jaydon comes out, we’ll see how it goes.”
“…Alright then! I’ll get Darcy to send you to Venturas later,”
Before Joanna could finish speaking, Darcy interrupted her. “Mrs. Everett, Mr. Everett just called me. I might have to
accompany Mr. Everett on a business trip to Melta.
“I’ve been in the hospital for the past few days. I still have some work to do. I might not be able to send Ms. Grace
to Venturas.”
When Joanna heard this, she subconsciously said, “Oh, then I’ll get someone to send Grace to Venturas.”
“Alright!”
“Carson, you’re in charge of sending Grace to Venturas safely.”
“Yes, Mrs. Everett.”

Meanwhile, Darcy had a solemn expression on his face.
“Bye. Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay.”
“Darcy, don’t you have anything to say to me?”
“Have a safe trip,” Darcy replied stiffly.
When Grace heard this, her little face looked gloomy. She could not help but glance at Joanna. “Joann, goodbye.”
Joanna waved at her with an expression that said, “Leave it to me.”
After Grace left, Joanna and Darcy got into the car and prepared to return to Sherane Bay Villa.

Joanna could not help but ask, “Darcy, Grace just said goodbye to you. Why didn’t you react at all?”
“Mrs. Everett, what’s wrong?”
“It’s been hard on you these past few days. You have to take care of your health.”
“Thank you.”
Darcy looked a little uneasy.
“Darcy, Grace seems to like you. How do you feel about Grace?”
“…” Darcy looked gloomy.
“Mrs. Everett, don’t be ridiculous.”
Joanna smiled gently. “I’m not joking. Grace is very serious. How do you feel about her now? You’re not young
anymore. It’s time to think about a relationship.”
Darcy was silent for a moment. “…Mrs. Everett, Ms. Grace is so much younger than me. Moreover, our identities
are not suitable. The
difference in our statuses is too great.”
“What era are we in now? Why do you still care so much about social status?”
“I-I’m not good enough for Ms. Grace.”
“Give yourself some confidence. You’re so outstanding. You’re very compatible with Grace.”
Darcy’s eyes flickered as he said gloomily, “Mrs. Everett, there’s no need to say anything. I know my own situation.
I… am not worthy of Ms. Grace. I can’t give her happiness.
“I hope Mrs. Everett can convey my intentions. Don’t let Ms. Grace misunderstand anymore.”
“…” When Joanna heard this, she looked at Darcy in surprise.
She never expected this.
Darcy actually refused to accept Grace’s courtship? This was really beyond Joanna’s expectations.
If it were any other man, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams when such a beautiful, cute, and rich
girl chased after him.
“Darcy, are you serious?
“You’re not young anymore. You should seriously consider having a

family. I think Grace is very suitable for you…”
“We’re not suitable.” Darcy refused decisively.
“Why is that?” Joanna was confused.
Judging from Darcy’s reaction, he did not seem to be telling the truth.
Especially since he was more anxious than anyone else after Grace’s accident.
“In short, I’m not worthy of Ms. Grace. I don’t dare to have wishful thinking. Mrs. Everett, can you help me convey
my intentions?” Darcy replied indifferently.
“…” When Joanna heard this, she could not recover from her shock for a long time.
Normally, it would be difficult for a man to successfully chase a woman, but easy for a woman to chase a man.
Unexpectedly…
Darcy had actually hit an obstacle.
A hint of heaviness and hesitation appeared in Darcy’s eyes.
It was not that he did not like Grace.
It was because he liked her too much. It was precisely because he liked her too much that he could not harm her.
In the early years, because of the high physical fitness training, his body had some problems.
Later, during the fight with the criminal, his “special part” was injured.
As a result, there was no way for him to… give a woman happiness like a normal man.
In addition, he was introverted and refused to go to the hospital to see the men’s department. Therefore, no
matter how beautiful a woman he faced, his body did not react at all.
