True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 617
Heinz smiled and said, "Lester meant that you can make your own judgment on the matter. Alice, there are some things that you should not say even if you've seen through it, otherwise there's no fun in it." Alice naturally did not believe it. "What fun?"
Heinz replied, "There are some things that will affect your reputation if you're not careful and say them out loud."
Alice came to a sudden realization. "He is afraid that our cousin's actions would be discovered and the police would go looking for him?"
Heinz praised her with two words, "Smart girl!"
Alice looked at her elder sister.
Grace joined in, "You don't have to ask. The result is that Eva has gone mad. Whether she wants to be or not and whether she really is or otherwise, she must have gone crazy."
Alice was still confused by her sister's words and asked, "Grace, I don't quite understand what you're saying. If she didn't want it, who could drive her crazy?"
Grace smiled and said nothing.
Alice froze for a moment before coming back to her senses. Suddenly, she seemed to have understood something.
She looked at her sister. "Grace, you all have a plan. You all know about everything, don't you?"
Grace was still smiling without saying a word.
Heinz smiled faintly. "It's a tacit mutual understanding. Let's just sit and watch the clouds lift."
Alice sighed and said something that made everyone feel very emotional, "That old woman is so hateful, not letting go of her anger even if she is crazy. But life isn't something you can hold on to, anyway. Perhaps it's good that things are this way."
In Lowe Villa.
As soon as they returned, they received notice that the Old Master had forced his way out of the hospital and said that he'd come to Lowe Villa.
When Madam Lowe informed them of that, Grace was a little surprised.
"Why was he in such a hurry to leave the hospital?"
"Generally, the culture here is that when an old person is about to die, they want to spend the little time they have at home. Perhaps the Old Master knew that he would not be able to live too long, so he came back early to prepare himself."
Grace was stunned. A kind of inexpressible sourness welled up in her heart.
Time passed quickly at the end of a person's lifetime.
All grudges might really dissipate with the passage of time.
Grandma's life would come to an end and the Old Master's as well.
Their lives had been filled with loneliness and bitterness for decades. They had been lonely for half of their lives, but they were also the ones who had suffered the most. After thinking about it, Grace gained a deep understanding.
Perhaps life should be settled a little earlier than that, not to wait until the last moment to have irredeemable regrets. Sadness and sorrow could never be taken away. Thinking of that, Grace looked at Heinz quietly.
"I hope that both Heinz and I will appreciate and support each other for the rest of our lives and progress till old age together," she thought.
When Grace looked at Heinz, he also turned around and looked at her with tenderness in his eyes. He stared at her and smiled.
The two of them looked at each other and laughed.
Soon, the Old Master came back by ambulance. He went straight to Lowe Villa. He got out of the ambulance, accompanied by nurses and doctors to monitor his physical condition. It was only then that they were relieved and the ambulance left shortly after.
The Old Master was helped into the lobby but Donald didn't come. Perhaps it was the Old Master's order that his third son was not allowed to be there.
After the group of people sat down, the Old Master turned to Zachary with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Zachary frowned when he saw that look.
"Grandfather, why are you in such a hurry to leave the hospital to come here? What's the matter?"
The Old Master did not conceal his intention of going to the villa. "I want Marilyn's ashes. When I told you that last night, you did not object to it in any way."
Zachary said, "Yes, I didn't object, but the last time you snatched the ashes away, you made grandmother's ashes turn to dust."
The Old Master's face turned pale and there was a hint of shame in his eyes. He then said, "Yes, that's why I came to you all. I just want to stay here for a while with Marilyn's ashes, and then I'll leave." "Grandfather, all the ashes have been sprinkled. How much do you think we could pick up?" Zachary asked with a burning glare.
The Old Master's face was pale. After a long time, he said, "As long as there was a little bit left, even just a little bit, I hope that you could give me some time. I really have a lot of things to say but I am afraid that it will be too late soon."
Zachary frowned.
Suddenly, a deep female voice rang out. "Give it to him."
Everyone looked up and saw Grace standing behind him. Her eyes were calm and no longer as cold as before.
Her words stunned everyone as she looked at everyone calmly. Finally, her gaze landed on Master Lowe. She said composedly, "He has been alone his whole life, which was already the cruelest punishment. When he reached old age, with the family's misfortune and the death of his most excellent son, he clearly knows how the rest of his life will pan out."
"He used his whole life to prove that it was a wrong choice to drive my grandmother away."
This was a joke."
"He proved by his actions that his three children whom he had taken pains to protect were just a joke to him in his life. So, if he wants to see my grandmother's ashes, then, you can show it to him, Zachary. If he has the shamelessness to face my grandmother in heaven, then let him be."
Master Lowe's face froze and he slowly looked at Grace who was speaking. In front of so many people, the Old Master did not refute it but the loneliness in his eyes grew more intense. Grace turned away.
Zachary was stunned for a moment and said seriously, "Grandpa, since Grace has agreed, I will get it for you."
Then, Zachary went upstairs to the study room to get the urn.
After a while, Zachary came out of the study with Marilyn's cinerary urn in his arms. This was the real one. Inside, were Marilyn's ashes.
As soon as he saw the urn, the Old Master's gaze suddenly froze and he subconsciously looked at everyone.
No one spoke a word.
Master Lowe seemed to have understood something.
Zachary gave him the ashes.
The Old Master took it and held it in his arms. His body was trembling. He was very frustrated and annoyed, yet at the same time, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in his eyes. Zachary instructed him, "Grandpa, hold it properly. This time around, if it's sprinkled all over the place, there's no way to put it all back together anymore."
The Old Master nodded.
He looked at Grace. "Could you, could you all go out first? I have a few words to say to this girl."
Everyone was stunned.
Zachary looked at Grace.
Grace had her full attention on the matter and stood up quickly. Her voice was light but very powerful. Her dark eyes were full of clear light. "I have nothing else to say to you."
As soon as she finished her words, everyone's eyes were on her.
Grace took a deep breath and said, "You'd better talk to my grandmother."
After saying that, Grace left.
The Old Master suddenly said, "I have one of your grandmother's relics here."
Grace's steps suddenly stopped. She froze on the spot for a while, then slowly turned around and looked at him.
The Old Master shouted, "Housekeeper!"
The housekeeper came forward holding a wooden box.
