True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 930 Throwing Up Blood

Outside the room, Grace had heard Timothy defending her and talking about how he felt sorry for how Candace had criticized her. The tears in her eyes couldn't help flowing out. Heinz, of course, felt sorry for Grace as well. Seeing the grievance and sadness in Grace's eyes, he felt as if a knife was plunged into his heart and twisted ruthlessly. He silently held Grace in his arms.

Grace took a deep breath and shook her head to show that she was fine.

Heinz sighed and said softly, "Let's go over there. We'll enjoy the scenery and get something to eat, okay?"

"I'm not hungry," Grace replied as she shook her head.

It hadn't been long since they had lunch, and she really wasn't hungry.

She didn't know if it was Candace's words that made her lose her appetite or something else.

She peered at Heinz and asked, "Heinz, have you given Lawrence a call?"

"Lester did. He's on his way here," Heinz said. "Let's go sit over there and rest for a while."

"Okay."

They walked to the carved stone table and Heinz immediately ordered the servant, "Get a blanket for Grace and put it on the stone bench."

"Understood."

Before long, the servant came with a blanket and laid it on the stone bench for Grace.

As soon as Grace sat down, Lawrence arrived.

He got out of the car with a gloomy face and approached Grace and Heinz.

Standing in front of them, he asked slowly, "Where is Candace?"

Heinz glanced at him and then gestured at Lester. Lester immediately arranged for people to keep a close eye on the situation.

After that, Heinz turned to Lawrence and said, "She's inside the house, but Mr. Yarbrough is speaking to her now. If you want to see her, wait until he comes out."

"Are you doing this on purpose?" Lawrence questioned almost immediately with suspicion. "You purposely arranged for Timothy to come, didn't you?" "Yes, I did. However, this is something between the three of you. You should clear it up. It's much better to talk to each other in person. If you want to know, you can go in and ask now," Heinz spoke nonchalantly. "I don't care about your trivial matters. You're being all lovey-dovey at such an old age, but you don't even feel embarrassed for neglecting your children."

For a moment, Lawrence was rendered speechless. He gazed deeply at Heinz and then looked at the door from a distance.

He was in no hurry to go in because he was well aware of the situation.

This was a trap that Heinz had set for him. If he were to go in there now and calmly faced the issue, he might not get the answer he wanted. Nevertheless, if he didn't do so, he might get a fake answer. What he wanted was a real and genuine answer. Even in front of Timothy, he still had to replace out Candace's thoughts and feelings.

Therefore, Lawrence inhaled a deep breath before walking toward the door.

When he reached the door, he stood still and did not push it open.

Timothy's voice could be heard from the inside.

"Why? Do you think that you don't have to see Lawrence just because you don't want to?"

"I don't want to see him. You can't decide for me," Candace replied.

"You no longer have the freedom to say these. This is the result of your own actions. You have to bear it yourself."

"It was you who let Lawrence listen to the recording. You guys are horrible. You're worried that I'll live a good life with Lawrence, so you told him that I don't love him. You guys did it on purpose."

"Then tell me, do you love him?" Timothy raised his voice and asked succinctly, "Why don't you reach into your conscience and ask yourself if you love him?"

"I don't love him, I never loved him," Candace yelled in agitation. "It's not like I'm scared to admit it. You don't have to provoke me. If this is the answer you want, then I'll tell you frankly. Timothy, I've only ever loved you, but what did you do? You ruined me for a lifetime!"

Standing by the door, Lawrence staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Even though he had heard Candace's words very distinctly, his heart was still riddled with holes.

Although he had already mentally prepared himself for this, he still couldn't help but feel upset.

He stood frozen by the door and did not enter.

Timothy looked at Candace in shock. He couldn't say make a noise for a long time.

On the other hand, Candace did not hide anything from him. She continued to confess, "I love you and nobody else. I only love you with all my heart, but I've received nothing in return. Now, I only have hatred toward you."

"You only love yourself," Timothy finally spoke. "Your love is selfish. You didn't love them, so why were you with them?"

"I was desperate!" Candace roared at him. "I liked the fact that they love me and can't leave me. I simply enjoy how cheap they are. Do you know how it feels to be cherished? Do you know that feeling?"

"You don't!"

"Because you don't love anyone. You never treated me like this. How could you ever understand what it feels like to be cherished? That is love's ultimate form. Do you understand?"

Frankly, Timothy hadn't expected her to be so direct.

He was speechless for a long time.

Then, Candace's gaze shifted to the door. She looked at the tightly shut door as if she was looking through it and at somebody else.

Soon, she retracted her gaze and added in a loud voice, "I enjoyed the feeling of a family that Anderson gave me. Not everyone can become his wife. He cherished me for a few years, and that feeling was wonderful."

"But because of Grace's existence, you took the initiative to come and tear apart this beautiful and peaceful life of mine. Hence, he began to hate me because I lied to him and said that Grace was his child." "But you know that Grace is your child, so he was no longer good to me. He would beat me up, scold me, and abuse me. I lived my days in misery."

"I longed to feel what it was like to be loved and cared for, so I got together with Lawrence again."

"Lawrence was desperate for love too, but he loved me more."

"Whoever falls in love first suffers most. That's why from the moment I fell for you, I decided not to fall in love with any other man ever again. I only enjoyed the good feelings that they gave me, and I wouldn't offer them any genuine feelings in return."

"We could have an intimate relationship like husband and wife, but I would never give them selfless love from the bottom of my heart. I wouldn't. Even if I have to bear their child, it would simply be the product of temporary passion between a man and a woman. It wouldn't be the product of love."

"You... How can you do this?" Timothy couldn't believe that Candace had ended up like this. He looked at her in astonishment and asked shakily, "If you don't love them, how can you have a child with them?" "Can't you tell that it's because I have no choice?" Candace asked back. "Can't I be with someone when I'm desperate for a man? You can't fulfill my needs either. Why blame me?"

"Candace!" Timothy angrily rebuked. "You're shameless!"

She snorted and said, "Timothy, honestly speaking, Anderson wouldn't do and Lawrence even more so. I missed you the most. You were a vigorous young man at that time, and you couldn't get enough. You weren't like Anderson, who was middle-aged, or Lawrence, who's reaching his golden years."

This was undeniably an insult to men, which was simply unbearable to the ear. Timothy went manic as he listened to her.

Meanwhile, outside the room, Lawrence threw up a mouthful of blood.
