True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 877

"Where are you going?"

Zachary asked in a deep voice.

"I want to go!" Candace hesitated and said, "In any case, I have to go first. If Grace replaces me.

I won't be able to go."

"Then, tell me all your secrets!"

"What secrets do I have?" She retorted in a low voice. "You're really strange. What kind of secrets are you on about?"

"Do you have anything to do with the news about Grace and Heinz? What role did you play behind the scenes? Hurry up and say it. Maybe Grace will agree to let you go wherever it is you want to go, or maybe she won't interfere with what you do in your last moments, be it receiving treatment or waiting for death like this." Zachary ignored her words.

From the looks of it, she did not intend to come clean.

He was not in a hurry. He stood there, looking down at Candace without saying a word.

She could not help but frown under his sharp gaze. She was very irritated and wanted to struggle, but she really had no strength. She looked at him with pleading eyes.

However, he remained unmoved.

He continued looking at her with calm eyes and said plainly, "Aunt Candace, don't struggle any more. You should just tell us everything. What is the relationship between Henry, Jodie and you guys?" "There isn't any relationship. I don't know them at all," she said.

"Then do you know that Jodie hurt Grace? You're willing to let them treat your daughter like this?"

"Zachary, Grace has to go through hardships in order to grow as a person. Why don't you understand? You fought alone, and so did Grace. She must become strong on her own, otherwise, it will be difficult for her to gain a foothold in this world. That's why these minor hardships that she's gone through are beneficial to her."

"Aunt Candace, do you mean you want Grace to mature by going through these things? In other words, in my opinion, you also played a part in fabricating the news, making Grace's reputation plummet and causing her to suffer the whole world's scorn?" "No, I didn't. I didn't. Do you think I have nothing else to do? I told you, I don't know!" She denied it directly.

"Aunt Candace, what's the point of hiding it now? Just say it. I don't want my cousin to be hurt like this. If you tell me, I might consider letting you go," he said in a deep voice.

"Zachary, will you really consider letting me go?" She asked with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

"A man keeps his word. If what you say is true, maybe I will consider it," he said patiently.

"Alright, I'll tell you then. The news was schemed by me, with the purpose of letting Grace know that not everything in this world is smooth- sailing. She can only become strong if she can come out victorious in the face of a storm."

Zachary frowned and said, "Aunt Candace, this is not enough to persuade me!"

"What do you mean?" She frowned.

"Aunt Candace!" He shook his head. "A reason like this can't convince me. You said that Grace would become more confident after going through these hardships, but I don't believe that at all. On the contrary, I think that you have an unspeakable goal."

"What goal could I have? I've told you the truth, yet you don't believe me. If I don't say it, then you would doubt me!" She gave a helpless gesture.

"Aunt Candace, you say that this is for Grace's sake, but I think this is ridiculous," Zachary said in a deep voice. "You're not the kind of mother who would do things for their children's good. Why are you giving me such an honorable reason?"

"I've said it, but you don't believe me. What goal could I have?" She asked again.

"I know what goal she has." All of a sudden, Grace's voice came from the doorway.

Both of them were stunned.

Candace instantly frowned and her shoulders collapsed. She was exasperated. If Grace was here, then what would happen to her freedom?

Zachary looked to the door. Grace stood there with a cold face, and she looked at her mother icily. Behind her was Heinz, who stood tall and strong, looking like her guardian.

Grace looked at Candace coldly and said in a deep voice, "I know what your goal is. You want to break me and Heinz up. You just don't want me to be with him."

This was also the reason why Candace said that she and Heinz were not compatible at the start. It was because she wanted to break them up from the very beginning. When she found that she couldn't break them up, she changed her strategy.

"What a joke!" Candace said, "The reason why I said you two aren't compatible and wanted to break you two up is because the both of you really aren't compatible. Why would I have any other goal? All of you are truly funny. I tell you all the truth but you don't believe me. Aren't you guys too paranoid? I think you are mentally ill."

"You're the one who is mentally ill!" Grace said coldly. "Don't think that I don't know your real goal!"

"Alright, tell me what my real goal is then!" Candace reprimanded in a deep voice. "Don't you dare lie."

Grace looked at her thoughtfully and narrowed her eyes. She felt that it was time to say it, so she turned around and glanced at Heinz. "Heinz, should I say everything?"

"If you want to say it, you don't have to ask me. You can do whatever you want!" Heinz gave her his complete trust.

"Then I'll say it all, so that this woman won't keep protesting," Grace spoke word by word. "And after I say it, she will never be free again. From now on, she shouldn't even think about wanting freedom. She will be confined until the end of her life."

Candace's entire body turned cold, and her brows knitted together.

Without freedom, what could she do in the future?

Grace turned to look at Candace with a sharp and cold gaze. It seemed that she was sure of her mother's thoughts and knew her real goal. Her eyes were so calm that it made Candace a little flustered. "The reason why you want to break up Heinz and I is because you think the relationship between all of us is very complicated, so you want to sacrifice Heinz and my happiness. Of course, you want to sacrifice the happiness of my two children more, because you want to protect the reputation of someone else."

Candace suddenly panicked. She looked at her in shock and listened to her every word. "That person is Heinz's father, Lawrence. You gave birth to his child, and that child is Lowell. You want Heinz and I to raise him for you."

"But you dare not admit that he is the child of you and Lawrence, and that he's Heinz's and my brother!"

"You're the one who dares not admit what you've done. It's you who is mentally ill, and Lawrence, not Heinz and I."

"We've always been frank. You can have your own lover, and we can have our own too. We have nothing to do with each other. You did all this out of selfishness and irresponsibility, yet you still say it as if it's something honorable. It's ridiculous to the extreme!"
