Timothy took a deep breath and looked at Candace. Unexpectedly, he couldn't speak. After a long while, he actually laughed, which he didn't have much energy left for, anyway.

"You are still the same. There's no logic in what you say. How can you forcibly twist logic to such an extent?"

"You are afraid and are unknowingly nervous. Everyone will be afraid, because no one will think that this is a happy thing. You have not been completely honest with your current wife, have you?" He looked at her and smiled bitterly. "It's up to you. Now, I know what's going on. I won't let it go on like this!"

She frowned slightly and said, "You promised me you won't tell Grace that the child is her and Heinz's brother. You know very well that if she knows, she would be in a bad mood. Don't you think that I'm not thinking about your daughter? Since you owe Grace a favor, you should reconsider her feelings."

"Of course I won't tell her about it, but I can't just stand by and watch as she raises your child while she is kept in the dark. I'll look for Heinz's father." "I advise you not to do that. He doesn't know about your existence, and I don't want him to know about our history. If he knows, he will probably suffer a lot."

Timothy stared at her and said, word by word, "That's because you never told him that the person you really love is me, right?"

She didn't say a word.

He continued his victorious pursuit. "The person you love now is still me. In your life, I am the one you love the most. You have been with three men, but you still love me the most, right?"

She opened her mouth. In the dark, her teary eyes were flashing.

He stared into her eyes and said without flinching, "Don't you? You don't dare admit it?"

"Why wouldn't I dare to admit it?" She chuckled as she replied.

"Then just admit it. Tell me that you love me. Do you dare to say that you still love me?"

"Why should I tell you that? What's the point of you forcing me to tell you?"

"Of course it means a lot to me."

She stared at him silently.

The phone rang, disturbing the peaceful moment.

Timothy pursed his lips and took out the phone. When he saw the caller ID, he found that it was Heinz's phone number, which he had just saved.

He was stunned and came back to his senses, saying, "It's Heinz who called. They may have found out that you have gone out with me."

She was slightly stunned. She frowned and said, "If they know, my good days will also come to an end, but I really don't want to go back to the hospital. Call them and tell them that I don't want to go back. Tell me if you have something to say. That's it. Can you help me this time?"

He frowned and said in a low voice, "But I think it's best for you to go back to the hospital now. Your body can't bear it anymore. If you continue to exert yourself like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to go on for a month, let alone two months."

"Even if there is only a week left, I don't want to die in the hospital. I still have some unfulfilled wishes. I have to finish them." She said earnestly, "Timothy, help me!"

He hesitated and said, "Let me have a try."

He picked up the phone.

"Hello.' "Mr. Yarbrough, it's Heinz," Heinz's low and deep voice echoed from the phone. "My mother-in-law ran away from the hospital by climbing out of the window. She left the hospital. My men found out that she got into your car and left the hospital. I want to know where the both of you are now."

He didn't try to hide anything. He directly told Timothy not to lie, because he partially knew what had happened.

He didn't know what to say, so he could only admit, "Yes, she's with me."

Heinz muttered, "What do you think we should do?"

"We are talking about what happened in the past and we spoke about Grace," Timothy said.

"Where are you?" Heinz asked in a deep voice.

"Outside."

"Tell me the address. If you don't want to tell me, I will replace out soon. I will not let her slip away," Heinz said in a deep voice, with determination in his tone that could not be refused. "We will replace you immediately so give me the address."

Timothy paused slightly and said, "Can you give us a little time? Give me another hour. I need another hour, please?"

"Mr. Yarbrough, I really want to show my respect. If she runs away an hour later, or you conspire in her escape, you may lose Grace," Heinz reminded him.

Timothy hesitated a little and said, "I know. I will keep my promise."

"Well, I'll call you in an hour," Heinz said, and hung up the phone.

Grace looked at him. She frowned and asked, "Didn't you ask for the address?"

"No." He said, "He needs an hour and he needs to talk to Candace. It seems that they need to reminisce. We should take this opportunity to investigate. I'll call Jensen and ask him to send someone to locate Mr. Yarbrough's cellphone."

"That's a good idea."

He called Jensen promptly.

He was sitting in the car with Grace.

"Don't worry. Jensen said that he will soon locate the place. We will replace out where they are and catch up."

She nodded.

Both of them didn't speak for a while. She sat in the car solemnly and didn't say a word for a long time.

Heinz comforted her, "Don't worry."

"I'm not in a hurry." She shook her head. "It's an indescribable feeling."

"They haven't seen each other for many years, so they likely have a lot to talk about."

"What's there to talk about?"

Heinz said, "I have no right to judge, and I'm not a person who will stick till the end. You, Alice, and even Jensen can do it."

That was because the three of them had been together from the start.

Grace knew that he was talking about his marriage with Jodie. She glanced at him and found a sense of helplessness and selfmockery lingering in his eyes. She was embarrassed and said, "I wasn't talking about you."

"I'm guilty." He was very honest. "What I've done was not ethical."

As they were talking, his phone rang.

He picked it up, and Jensen's voice came from the other side. "Heinz, Timothy's cellphone's position shows that he is in the flower field by the resort in the high mountain." "Grandma's flower field?" Heinz was very surprised.

"Yes, do you need me to go there?" Jensen asked.

"There's no need. Take good care of the children. I'll bring them over with Grace," Heinz said.

"That's good. I'll be waiting for your news.'
