True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 679

Upon hearing Lester's words, Jodie felt a little uncomfortable and she looked very embarrassed. She pursed her lips and stared at Heinz.

Heinz's eyes were cold.

"Hurry up. Finish it and Lester will send you back."

Seeing that Heinz was going to shake her off like a hot potato in his hands, Jodie laughed at herself and said, "Heinz, since you can do this to me, I don't know whether you will do the same to your new wife in the future."

His brows immediately furrowed. Heinz's cool breath filled the surroundings and he walked towards Jodie.

In an instant, Jodie's entire body tensed up. She was terrified and she subconsciously took a step back.

"Heinz, what are you doing?"

"So this is your true self," Heinz said coldly. "Even when you can't get what you want, you curse others. It seems that it's the right move to divorce you."

Jodie was stunned and her face paled even more, becoming like a sheet of paper.

She gawked at the man in front of her as if she didn't know him. "When did I ever curse you? I just want to remind you that you are being too heartless."

Heinz stood straight in front of Jodie and his gaze locked with hers. His mood was gloomy because of her. He suppressed the emotion in his eyes and tightened his handsome face. "This matter should have been settled a long time ago. 'Lovers part, but still long for one another'; that has never been my style. I hope you can show some respect for yourself."

After that, he turned around and walked into the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Jodie stopped in her tracks in embarrassment. She looked sorrowfully at the tall figure walking away. There was a hint of sadness and despair in her eyes. "Miss Lawson, please come in." Lester extended his hand and coldly gestured for her to come in. He urged Jodie, not giving her any chance to retreat.

"I didn't bring my ID card," Jodie said as she glanced at Lester.

"I've brought it." Lester replied, "Don't worry, I've brought all the documents."

Jodie's expression grew even more awkward.

Her lips trembled and her eyes reddened again.

"Don't cry." Lester bluntly said, "Miss Lawson, I'm a rough man and don't know how to take pity on women. When I see a woman cry, I don't feel the slightest bit of pity for her. On the contrary, I can't help but get angry and want to hit her, so don't cry in front of me. I'm afraid that if I won't be able to restrain myself and I'll hit you. When the time comes, it's hard to say if you're going to suffer and I'm not going to look good either."

"Lester, you..." Jodie's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at him.

"I am this kind of person." Lester smiled, then immediately retracted it. It was as if he had changed his face in a split second.

Jodie laughed at herself. Without looking at anyone, she walked towards the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Soon, they reached the inner sanctum.

Heinz was waiting for her, and his eyes were unfriendly.

Jodie's longing eyes fell on Heinz's face.

"Hurry up." Heinz motioned in a low voice.

Jodie also quickly sat down.

The staff member got everything ready and began to question them.

"Heinz, are you willing to divorce Jodie?"

Heinz nodded. "We reached an agreement six years ago, but she was kidnapped by the locals when she went to Alsburg. It was mistakenly thought that she had already died. Now, she is back and we're reapplying for the divorce certificate."

It was a succinct and clear explanation. One sentence was enough to explain the whole situation clearly.

The staff member nodded. "Your lawyer has clarified the basis of the situation clearly."

Heinz nodded slightly.

The staff member asked her, "Jodie Lawson, are you willing to divorce Mr. Heinz Jones?"

Jodie hesitated.

She hesitated and did not answer the question for a long time.

The staff member looked at her and asked in a louder voice, "Miss Jodie Lawson, may I ask if you are willing to divorce Mr. Heinz Jones?"

Jodie pressed her lips together and became silent again. She seemed to be at a loss for words.

"Is it hard to answer?" The staff member questioned again, "What are you thinking? Please say it."

"I'm not doing this voluntarily." Jodie quickly added, "He forced me to divorce him."

"Do you mean that someone is forcing you to proceed with the divorce?" The staff members were going through the procedures that should be done. They had to replace out what was going on.

Jodie did not dare to look at Heinz.

This was because she found that Heinz had tensed up in an instant; he became very cold and stiff.

Jodie lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. Her delicate posture made her look like a victim of bullying.

"Miss Lawson, please think about it carefully." The lawyer next to her said, "If you can't talk about it properly now, we can only go to the judicial department. At that time, the divorce will still be mandatory and you don't have to come forward. The court will accept it."

Jodie was stunned and she froze. She pursed her lips.

The staff member also added, "Miss Jodie, this is your right. You have the ability to think independently. Please think it over carefully. Will you sign the divorce, or are you willing to go to court to deal with it on your own?"

Heinz glanced at Jodie and tugged at the corner of his cold lips. His cold voice spoke, "Jodie, must it be settled by the court?"

Jodie immediately tensed up and didn't say anything.

"You'd better consider it carefully. This will happen sooner or later. We made a deal six years ago, but you went to Alsburg and then there was news of your death. I think if we really went to court, we'll be divorced sooner. There's no need to wait for two years."

Jodie was tongue-tied by Heinz's words and could not speak for a long time.

"Miss Jodie, please think it over." The staff member also said, "If you are not doing this voluntarily, you can go to court."

"At that time, I'll also be seeking compensation for the loss of my mental health over these six years." Heinz said coldly, "At this point, I think it's necessary to make things crystal clear." "President, when the time comes to settle the debt of the Lawsons, don't forget to add in the benefit and care they received from you in the past six years," Lester reminded from behind. Heinz remained emotionless but, a look of satisfaction briefly flashed across his face. Lester felt that his input had helped a lot.

"I agree." Upon hearing this, Jodie immediately said quickly, "I agree to the divorce. A signature, leaving my fingerprints, let me know what you need. I agree."

The staff member nodded, took the ink pad, and handed it directly to Jodie. "If you agree, then leave your thumbprint immediately."

Jodie had no choice but to make the thumbprint.

The two of them went to take their individual pictures.

Heinz was cold and grim.

Jodie was pitiful. She really looked like a divorced woman, without a smile on her face.

Soon, they each got a copy of the divorce certificate, which was sealed with a stamp.

Heinz took it and left immediately.

Jodie held the divorce certificate in her hand and ran to the lobby on the Civil Affairs Bureau's first floor. She sat on the chair and began to cry silently.

Lester watched from behind and said to her, "Miss Lawson, if you want to cry, you'd better go back and cry. If you cry here, others will think that you're mourning. Furthermore, it's bad luck for you to cry like that, and it's also bad luck to your parents."

Jodie couldn't help but ask Lester, "Is it wrong

for me to cry?"
