The butler was shocked when he saw them holding hands as they walked down the stairs.

They had just gone upstairs not long ago, so the butler looked at Heinz Jones with a doubtful look on his face.

Heinz felt strange when he looked into the butler's eyes. He thought, "Does he think that I am impotent?'

"That's why I came back down so quickly."

Heinz flashed his butler a cold stare.

However, the butler said boldly, "Sir, are you coming back today?"

Heinz frowned and looked at him.

"I meant for dinner. Are you coming back for dinner?" The butler explained. He continued, "I'll need to start preparing for dinner soon if you're coming back."

Heinz glanced at him. Then, he looked at Grace Smith and asked, "Will you be coming back after work?"

Grace shook her head and said, "No, I have to go back and spend some time with my sister today."

Heinz said, "Then, when are you going to have time for me?"

Grace was stunned by his question. Seeing that he was being so shrewd, she was speechless. She

said, 'TH let you know when I'm free."

Heinz said, "I want an answer now. Who is more important to you? Your sister or me?"

Grace rolled her eyes and said, "Mr. Jones, my sister is more important."

"Excuse me?" Heinz gnashed his teeth and said.

"We might not be together forever. But, my sister will always have my back no matter what happened. So, she's more important." Grace said. She found it funny when he was jealous. She continued, "Some divorced couples might end up as friends. Some of them might end up as strangers. But, my sister will always be my sister. Isn't it true?"

Heinz was consumed by anger after hearing what she said. The butler was stunned as well.

But no one could refute it.

"Also, you're not my husband yet. So, please don't compare yourself with others. You'll just destroy our relationship." Grace continued.

"Grace, are you trying to provoke me?" Heinz gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes," Grace admitted. Then, she said, "Look how angry you are right now."

"You-" Heinz did not know what to say. He looked at Grace with deep affection. He felt angry and funny at the same time. He was very helpless.

The butler looked at Grace and said, "Miss Smith, please come over for dinner tonight. I'll prepare tonic soup for our President. It'll definitely boost up his strength."

Grace shook her head. She felt there was a hidden meaning between his lines.

Heinz sensed it as well. He looked at the butler angrily and said coldly, "What do you mean? Why do I need tonic soup?"

The butler knew him very well. He said, "Sir, you seem a little weak. It'll give you a lot of nutrition. Miss Smith will be satisfied if you have a stronger body."

Grace looked at the butler in shock. She really felt that there was a hidden meaning between his lines.

Heinz was speechless as well. He said, "I'm fine. I don't need to drink any tonic soup."

The butler immediately said, "Yes, you're right. You're in good health. Well, I'm just concerned about you. I want to improve your stamina."

Heinz and Grace were stunned.

Grace looked at the butler in shock.

"You don't have to do that," Heinz said. Since when did he need the aphrodisiac? He didn't have the chance to have sex at all. Grace had rejected him. Would it not be worse if he had drunk the aphrodisiac and he still did not get to sleep with her?

The butler lowered his head and said, "Miss Smith, please come over and have dinner tonight. I'll ask the servants to prepare some nutritious soup for you as well."

"Please go!" Heinz ordered in a deep voice.

The butler left immediately as he did not want to provoke him any further.

Grace was blushing.

Heinz saw her blushing and said angrily, "How could they simply make their own decisions? This is so annoying!"

Grace was stunned as well. 'How can the butler provoke the master?' She thought.

"Your butler really cares about you. Well, you should come back and drink the soup tonight but I won't be coming over." Grace said softly.

"Grace Smith!" Heinz gritted his teeth.

Grace burst into laughter and said, "Your butler is so cute."

Heinz said in a low voice, "He's not cute! He must have thought I have bad stamina when he saw that we had come down so quickly."

They have been upstairs for around twenty minutes only. This was really fast for a couple who had just fallen in love deeply with each other.

Grace giggled and thought, 'The butler must have mistaken him for having bad stamina.'

Heinz said annoyingly, "How dare you laugh! It's all because of you. He'll not laugh at me if you had agreed to sleep with me just now." Grace corrected him. "No! He's not laughing at you, he really cares about you."

Grace laughed after finishing her sentence.

Heinz pulled her into his arms and carried her into the car.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the newspaper office.

Grace said goodbye to Heinz and walked into the office.

Seeing her leaving without looking back, Heinz got out of the car. He put one hand on the roof of the car and the other on the door of the car and asked loudly, "Are we really not going to meet later?" Grace turned around and said, "Yes, really. We'll make plans for later this week."

Heinz was stunned. He said, "What do you mean later this week? We'll have to meet tomorrow night!"

Grace thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it later. I'm running late. Goodbye."

Heinz was speechless when he saw Grace leaving without giving him a definite answer yet.

In the end, he could only get into the car and gave Jensen Charm a call.

"Did you take the person away?"

"Yup. I've already returned to my unit."

"The Quell family might put pressure on you."

Jensen smiled and said, "Don't worry. They might have a good plan, I have an even better plan."

"I knew I could always count on you," Heinz said.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it," Jensen said. Then, he asked, "Hey, how are you and Grace? Have you returned the card to Grace?"

Heinz froze for a moment. He reached out his hand to touch the pockets of his trousers. Then, he realized that the card was in the pocket of his other shirt.

"You haven't returned it?" Jensen asked. Then, he said, "Please be a gentleman. Grace is a sensitive person. So, please don't always try to show off your social status."

Heinz was stunned. Grace returned the money to him because she cared about her dignity. She was a sensitive person indeed.

"I know." He responded.

"Well, I'll hang up the phone then. I'm busy now." Jensen said.

"Okay," Heinz responded.

After hanging up the phone, Heinz gave Lester a phone call. He asked Lester to get the card for him.

He didn't leave. He was waiting outside the Newspaper Office while listening to some music.

Half an hour later, Lester sent the card to him.

Heinz put it into his pocket. He didn't want to leave yet.

Jensen was taking Jason Hudson to the police station. Jason was being detained without any interrogation.

Once they walked through the door, Jensen told his subordinates, "Please detain Jason Hudson for 23 hours. I'll interrogate him after that." "Yes, sir."
