True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 836
Life was full of jokes.
Alice found out that the two five-year- old children were more open-minded than her.
She sat there in a daze and she did not move for a long while. However, her face was extremely pale. Little Gary and Ernest's words suppressed her anger and made her reflect on their relationship.
If it was in the past, she might have flown into a rage, but now, after all the experiences that she had gone through, she knew that her sister might be the saddest and the most embarrassed person among them at the moment. She felt sorry for her sister and brother-in-law from the bottom of her heart.
She was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses. She looked up at Lowell, who had been staring at her uneasily.
She stood up and walked out without saying a word.
Little Gary quickly stopped her and asked, "Aunty, where are you going?"
He was a little worried that his aunt would do something impetuously.
She did not respond and continued to walk out.
He caught up with her immediately and said in a low voice to her, "Aunty, Mommy is still calm. It means that she is able to put up with it, therefore you'd better not cause more trouble. Otherwise, it would be a bigger problem. You can ignore Lowell's feelings, but you have to consider my mommy's feelings."
Perhaps his words that were too righteous, which made Alice stop.
She looked at him composedly and said, "I'll go back to my room and call Jensen."
He heaved a sigh of relief in an instant. His tone was gentler as he said, "Take it easy!"
Alice glanced at him and said, "You are right. Your mommy is having a more difficult time than I am. We should think about her feelings."
She left in haste and went back to her room to call Jensen.
As soon as the phone was connected, she asked straightforwardly, "Jensen, have you called Heinz today?"
He was perplexed and replied, "Yes, why do you care about this? I often call Heinz."
She tried to remain collected, wondering if Jensen would tell her about that matter. She said, "I know. What did you say to him? He didn't look good after the call."
"Nothing," he said. He thought about telling Alice after he came back. After all, it couldn't be explained clearly through the phone.
Alice was despondent when she knew Jensen was not going to tell her.
Little Gary and Ernest also refused to tell her the truth in Lowell's room just now. She pondered, "Am I really that unreliable? Why is everyone afraid of telling me?" She began to doubt herself.
Sensing that there was silence on the other side of the phone, Jensen instantly asked, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly stop talking?"
She replied in a low voice, "To you, am I really an impulsive and mindless person?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this question?" he asked. Alice's appearance immediately came up in his mind. "Is she acting on impulse frequently?" He wondered. Jensen thought for a moment, but before he could reply, she had already said in low spirits, "It seems that I am really that kind of person. Fine, I will accept it." "Alice, what's wrong with you?" He asked. He knew there was something amiss. He could tell that she was in a pensive mood and might have encountered some difficulties. He comforted her right away, "You have always done everything properly, Alice."
In her view, Jensen's words were more like a perfunctory encouragement to her. She said, "Alright, let's end the call here."
Jensen looked at the time and said, "Well, we will have a good talk later. I'll be back soon, so wait for me."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Alice sat morosely on the edge of the bed, contemplating, "I'm so worthless. It seems that I can't help. What's worse, everybody is worrying that I would mess it up." She was upset that she was not steady enough, but at the same time, she was concerned about her sister's mood. She wondered how her sister was doing.
Alice took a deep breath and patted her face. She decided to go out and spend time with the children. She thought it would be better to allow Grace and Heinz to make a decision on that matter.
She didn't want to cause more trouble.
Grace and Heinz were having unspeakable feelings at the moment. Both of them looked at each other and remained silent for a long time.
She looked at Heinz, whose face was darkened, worrying about him. As for herself, she had cooled off a lot after the initial shock.
Because of the challenges that she experienced in the past, she had grown accustomed to all the ups and downs in life. At the moment, his condition perturbed her greatly.
After a long time, she finally opened her mouth to ask, "Heinz, are you okay?"
He nodded and said, "I'm fine. Let's go."
She paused slightly and nodded afterward.
As soon as they were about to go out, the phone rang.
He took a look, and he was downcast at once.
She was puzzled, and she asked, "Who is calling?"
He paused for a moment before replying, "That d*mned old man."
After being stunned for a while, she realized that he was talking about his father.
She reminded him, "Heinz, don't be rash. We still don't know what he is going to do. Usually, we will lead ourselves to a dead end if we provoke a showdown with our opponent too early. We have to discover more information first."
Everything came to his mind. He took a deep look at Grace before he nodded and said, "I know, you can rest assured."
He picked up the phone and he heard Lawrence's voice, "I am back at home. Will you come out to welcome me, or should I go in directly?"
Heinz chuckled and said sarcastically, "Home? I thought you would be unfamiliar with that word."
It seemed to be embarrassing for Lawrence. After a pause, he said, "Nonetheless, let's meet. We haven't seen each other for so many years. We should have a nice chat and talk about the old days." "Yes, we should talk about the old days," he held back his emotions and said in a very restrained tone.
Seeing that he tensed up, Grace could tell that he was furious, but he curbed his temper eventually.
She felt gratified and sorry for him at the same time.
She understood his feelings. Perhaps she
was the only person in this world who could understand his feelings.
Lawrence didn't expect Heinz to see him so soon. He was a little uncertain and asked, "Do you mean that we can meet now? Are you willing to see me?"
He sneered, "I guess I would be harassed by you several times daily until I meet with you. Since that's the case, I might as well see you. It's just that you have to prepare some antihypertension medication for yourself, because I might not say anything nice."
Lawrence laughed and said, "Hahaha! Well, son, I'm glad that you are willing to see me. To me, that's news worth dying for. Tell me, where do you want to see me? I know you won't make me go to your house."
Heinz sneered even more. "That's great. Let's meet in front of my mother's grave."
