True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 678
"You should go back now and ask her to return. We will be going to the Civil Affairs Bureau," Heinz ordered. "In any case, you must bring her out. We have to settle this matter today." "Yes." Lester immediately called a few people over after receiving the order.
At this moment, in the Lawson family home, Jodie didn't say a word as she sat on the sofa in a daze. She stared at her toes and seemed to be lost in her thoughts.
When her parents saw her like this, they were very worried.
Pearlyn noted, "Jodie, are you okay? Don't scare me."
"Have you met Heinz?" Nathan couldn't help but ask.
Jodie kept silent.
"Jodie, say something." Pearlyn sat down beside her daughter and reached out to gently hold her hand. She suddenly cried out in surprise, "Ah, why is your hand so cold?"
Jodie finally raised her gaze and saw her mother's grey hair. Her heart hurt and she shook her head. She bit her lips tightly as she tried to control her emotions.
"Mom, I've signed the divorce agreement with Heinz."
"You signed the agreement?" Pearlyn was shocked. "Why did you sign it so quickly?"
"I had no choice." Jodie shook her head. "Heinz is determined. We were only married for a few months and it was a very short time. Since the two of us have messed up like this, he's probably disgusted and has no feelings for me anymore. He not only doesn't feel sorry that I can no longer give birth to a child, but he is also indifferent about it."
Nathan also sighed worriedly. "He has a new lover and children. How can he fall in love with you again?"
"Dad, Mom, have you met his new girlfriend?" Jodie asked with a flurry, "Have you?"
Nathan and Pearlyn nodded their heads. They wanted to speak but stopped on second thought.
"What kind of person is she?" Jodie asked.
"Jodie, frankly speaking, she is a very good girl. We don't feel like admitting it, but we can't say that she's bad without conscience. However, in our eyes, you are the best. She is not as good as you." Hearing this, Jodie suddenly leaned back on the sofa self-deprecatingly and sorrowfully. "She must be a very good girl. Otherwise, you wouldn't praise her. It seems that Heinz found a very good woman. It's my fault. I don't even appreciate myself, nor do I like myself. How can I ask others to like me?"
"Jodie!" Pearlyn could not bear it anymore.
Jodie didn't say anything, either.
Lester knocked on the door, and he was followed by four bodyguards.
He quickly came in and reached the door of the room.
The door was open. When Jodie's parents saw Lester, they immediately questioned, "Lester, why are you here again?"
"I'm here to bring Miss Lawson to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Both of them are required to be there for the divorce agreement."
"Didn't she sign the contract?" Nathan said. "Do you have to force Jodie like this? We are not going. Look at how tormented my daughter is now."
"Mr. Lawson." Lester didn't like what Nathan said about Heinz, so he said bluntly, "It should be said that she was the one who tormented our president badly. It should have ended a long time ago, yet it hasn't yet. You're not even apologetic, but instead you're also being unreasonable. This just doesn't make sense."
"How can you say that?" Pearlyn was also anxious. "Lester, you can't go against your conscience."
"Madam, we don't do things against our conscience," Lester said. "Miss Lawson, please come with us to the Civil Affairs Bureau quickly. Don't delay the divorce that's supposed to happen this afternoon. If we arrive later, they will be off work for the day. This is a matter that will happen sooner or later so you might as well resolve this matter as soon as possible."
"Lester, I've signed the agreement. What do you want more from me?" Jodie cried, "You asked me to sign it."
"I'm sorry. In that case, you leave me no choice." Lester didn't forget what the President had said. Desperate moments lead to the need for desperate measures. "Guards."
"Yes!" Suddenly, four bodyguards came in, all of whom were strong men, and they soon arrived at the door.
"Bring Miss Lawson along to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Be careful and be gentle with her."
"Yes, sir!"
The four of them barged into the room together, and two picked up Jodie and walked outside.
"This is considered kidnapping!" Pearlyn shouted. "We're calling the police."
Lester stood there, staring at Nathan and Pearlyn, and growled, "Your phone bills were paid by our President. You still have the guts to call the police? All these years, only our President can indulge you like this and take care of you. You are too selfish."
Nathan was so angry that he was trembling.
"You've crossed the line."
"We will only cross the line once, which is today," Lester retorted. "I'm the one who crossed the line. You don't have to blame our President. I can't stand it anymore. I saw how you guys ruined the relationship between him and Miss Smith. She broke up with him because of both of you. She is a woman full of righteousness. Compared to you, you're too petty."
Nathan and Pearlyn turned pale when Lester shot back and were speechless for a moment.
Lester said in a low voice, "You'd better think about it and reflect on it. Over these past few years, would you still be here talking to us and seeing your daughter if it wasn't for the
President? Don't be selfish."
After saying these words, Lester didn't care about the reactions of the old couple.
When they were about to leave, he suddenly saw the housekeeper, Susan.
He pointed at her and said, "By the way, even Susan was hired by our president and she has reached the limit."
Lester was the one who found Susan, and when she saw him, she was very grateful when he said this. His words made her feel embarrassed.
Lester ordered, "Susan, go and get their household register, Jodie's passport and ID card. I will be taking them with me."
"Yes!" Susan quickly went into the house and went to get the things, ignoring the Lawsons.
Not long after, she took them out and handed them over to Lester.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, Mr. Lester." Susan smiled.
"Who told you to give it to him?" Nathan scolded.
"The one who gives her salary is the boss." Lester casted a glance at them before leaving.
Outside, Jodie was shoved into the car. Lester came out and the car left.
In the room, Nathan sat down on the sofa and did not speak for a long time.
Pearlyn was no longer angry.
The Civil Affairs Bureau.
When they arrived, Heinz was already waiting there.
Jodie got out of the car and saw Heinz. Her eyes were full of complicated emotions and fear. She looked at Heinz as if she didn't know him.
He had really changed. He became so heartless that he could not wait another day. He wanted to divorce her and he wanted to do it as soon as possible.
Jodie was very sad. She lowered her head and walked towards Heinz.
In front of Heinz, she looked at him and said, "Heinz, you are really good at playing tricks."
Heinz's brows knitted tightly together.
Lester opened his mouth and chimed in, "Miss Lawson, with the way you wasted the President's time for the past 6 years, desperate measures were obviously necessary."
