True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 1081 Unable To Be Courteous
There was really someone who would provoke Little Gary and not mind making a big deal.
Little Gary glanced at Ernest and said, "Forget about it. You will never be able to change this fact in this lifetime. You can only be my younger brother, and I will always be older than you."
Ernest laughed and said, "Are you angry, Gary? Why are you so angry over such a small matter?"
"I'm done talking to you." Little Gary really ignored him this time and left.
At the hospital...
Timothy brought Alice to the hospital. In the corridor, he stopped dead on his tracks.
Alice almost instantly understood Timothy's anxiety.
She looked at him and said, "Mr. Yarbrough, might as well go in and see my sister."
"No, I've already visited her before. I'm afraid I'll upset her if I go in now. I don't want to do that." Timothy particularly blamed himself for this. The guilt he had for his daughter was indescribable. "My sister is a very tolerant woman. She won't be so upset with you," Alice said. "How about this, you wait here for a while. I'll go in and assess the situation first, and then I'll tell you later." "Alright, you should get going." Timothy nodded. He was very appreciative of Alice's courtesy. "Do help me comfort Grace. I really feel sorry for her."
Alice didn't say anything more and she quickly made her way towards Grace's ward.
When the bodyguards saw her, they knocked on the door to report her presence.
"Mr. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Miss Alice is here."
"How did Alice know?" Grace asked Heinz in surprise, "Did you tell her about it?"
"Perhaps Jensen did," Heinz said. "I didn't tell Alice personally, but since Jensen knew of it, he must've told Alice."
"Jensen also knows?" Alice happened to step in and heard Heinz speaking. "I can't believe he didn't tell me. The whole world but me knows my sister has been hospitalized."
Alice dashed in, leaving the bodyguards behind. She frowned as soon as she saw Grace.
"Grace, you've gotten thinner." Alice walked to the side of the bed and looked at Grace with bloodshot eyes. "What exactly happened this time?"
Immediately, Grace reassured her, "I'm fine now. Don't worry."
"I want to know the truth." Alice looked at Heinz again. "Heinz, what on earth is going on?"
"Didn't Jensen tell you?" Heinz said.
"Jensen didn't tell me anything. I've been missing Grace, so I went to visit her and the kids. It was only then I found out that she was hospitalized." Alice said. Heinz still explained the whole story to Alice.
Taking everything in, Alice was also very shocked. "No wonder Mr. Yarbrough said this had to do with him. He is indeed involved."
"You've met him?" Heinz asked.
"He's at the door." Alice then looked at Grace and whispered, "Grace, do you really blame him for this?"
Grace shook her head and said, "I don't. He didn't mean it anyway. It's just, I don't know how to face him sometimes."
"I understand." Alice looked at her slightly protruding belly. Being pregnant with twins made her belly slightly bigger than other normal pregnancies. "How are the children? Are they hurt?" "The doctors gave us two results, but I don't think it is a big deal," Grace said. "My contractions haven't been affected, nor are there any signs of miscarriage. There should be no issues, but I'm not entirely sure that they weren't hurt at all."
"So now, Mr. Yarbrough's ex-wife has turned herself in, I guess she is owning up to her actions? But, I think even if she wants to take responsibility, there's nothing much she could do. If she really did cause major damage, wouldn't the consequences be irreversible?"
"Yes." Heinz said in a deep voice, "Who doesn't want her to be responsible? She should pay for what she has done. Otherwise, everyone in the world can hurt and trample on other people's lives at will." "Heinz, Mr. Yarbrough looks very pitiful. I think he is probably very upset and blaming himself over this. After all, he doesn't want to hurt my sister," Alice said. "Let him come in and see her again." "Alice, why do you think the same as Jensen? He also wants to be the peacemaker." Heinz looked at Alice and said resentfully, "To be honest, I don't want to see anyone right now."
"But Mr. Yarbrough means a lot to Grace. Although she wouldn't say it aloud, Mr. Yarbrough is still her father. Heinz, do you really know Grace?" Alice looked at Heinz.
She knew that what she and her sister had in common was that they both longed for familial affection. Mr. Yarbrough didn't do it on purpose, therefore no matter how many mistakes he had committed, it was still worth forgiving him.
Heinz subconsciously turned to Grace. She looked down and didn't speak. In an instant, Heinz felt as if his heart was being strangled by something. He gasped and didn't move for a long time.
He understood that Grace longed for family, thus he sighed and said softly, "Alright, let him in!"
Alice looked at her elder sister.
Grace also raised her eyelids and looked at Heinz immediately.
Heinz said, "Alice and Mr. Yarbrough will accompany you. I'm going out. I'll be back soon."
"Heinz," Grace called out to him in concern.
"Don't worry. I'm going to attend to some affairs." Heinz patted Grace's hands. "You know what, I'll call him in."
"Alright," Grace said.
Soon, Heinz walked out of the ward.
He saw Timothy standing in the corridor facing the wall, looking pitiful as if he was punished to face the wall and recall his actions.
In the face of such an old father-in-law, Heinz also felt pitiful but when he thought of what had happened to Grace, he still felt a bit spiteful towards Timothy.
As soon as he approached, Timothy immediately noticed something. He quickly turned around and saw Heinz's cold expression.
Taken aback, he stammered, "Heinz."
"You should go in," Heinz said, "I'm heading out."
"Huh?" Timothy was surprised, but then he nodded. "Alright."
Heinz didn't say anything else and departed quickly.
Timothy stood at the door for a while before he approached and knocked on it, only entering after getting permission.
Grace looked at him as he looked at her.
Neither of them spoke.
Alice was afraid that the atmosphere would turn cold, thus she said, "Mr. Yarbrough, please have a seat. Let's talk about Madam Berkeley. Should we file a lawsuit?" Timothy was astonished. He said, "I have no objections to whatever you decide on."
"Even if she turned herself in, I still think what she did was horrible," Alice said. "I don't think I can be courteous towards her if I meet her." Timothy nodded and said, "I understand."
"No, Mr. Yarbrough, you don't. You don't understand how important my sister is to me," Alice said. "I don't want to see her being bullied." Timothy felt even more remorseful.
Alice also couldn't bear to continue.
Timothy was about to say something when he received a phone call.
It was from Jensen.
"Mr. Yarbrough, this is Jensen Charm. Madam Berkeley is throwing up blood. She is on the way to the hospital now."
