Chapter 1068

Heinz nodded, "Okay, you go ahead and rest. Don't think too much. I'll send Mr. Yarbrough off and have a few words with him.It also happened that Heinz had something to say.

Timothy stopped, turned around, and stared at Grace as a trace of reluctance flashed across his eyes.

The child whom he had once lost and finally found, yet he could not protect her.

He was very remorseful.

Grace was looking at him as well. After sending her another smile, Timothy turned back around and made his way out.

As he walked, Heinz followed after him. Once they were in the corridor, Timothy immediately told the man, "You don't have tosend me off further. Take care of Grace for me and you can call me anytime."

Heinz only nodded. He looked at Timothy for a moment and said, "Mr. Yarbrough, | can see that your concern for Grace is reallygenuine. | know you had good intentions despite how it turned out."

"Thank you for your understanding." Timothy laughed bitterly and continued, "If something happens to the children in Grace'sbelly, I'm not sure how I'm going to cope. | will never be able to forgive myself."

Heinz nodded, "I understand. It's not just you, | feel the same.""This is all my fault," Timothy replied apologetically.

Heinz didn't want to talk about this anymore. It was meaningless to throw blame around anymore. After all, the damage hadalready been done.

"Mr. Yarbrough, divorcing Madam Berkeley just like that... Do you really think Grace will be fine?"Timothy was dumbfounded. He didn't know where Heinz was going with this.

Heinz continued to explain, "Although Madam Berkeley was obviously the one in the wrong, both your sons and MadamBerkeley will think that Grace was the reason she was brought to the police station. To be honest, | don't want to add any morefuel to the fire. I'd rather not interact with them anymore."

“Leave them to me," Timothy assured, "I'll take care of it and make sure Grace won't be hurt everagain.”

Hearing this, Heinz just smiled coldly and asked, "Can | really believe that, Mr. Yarbrough?"Timothy froze. He understood Heinz's implication in an instant. The man did not trust him at all.

"You can choose to believe me, or you can choose not to. | know that | have lost all of my credibility, but my hands are honestlytied here. Trust me, | won't let things worsen from this point on. I'll be sure to keep a close eye on Quinn,” Timothy promised.

Heinz frowned at that and replied, "It's not that | don't trust you. | just feel that some things are not as optimistic as we imaginethem to be. | have done my best to protect Grace from harm regardless, but something still happened to her. | hope you'll beextra cautious from here on out. I'm not accusing you, Mr. Yarbrough. | just want you to be more cautious."

Timothy nodded and said, "Thank you for the reminder. | understand what you mean. | will be more cautious. Take good care ofGrace."

"Then what about Madam Berkeley? Are you going to let her turn herself in just like that?" Heinz asked.

"It's what's right. | don't think I've ever treated her unfairly. It's just that she was asking too much from me, and | couldn't satisfyher requests fully." Timothy looked at Heinz and continued, "She should be responsible for her actions."

"That's what your son said as well," said Heinz.Timothy was startled, "You guys mentioned that Zayne took his mother to turn herself in, right?"

“Well, it was Madam Berkeley who agreed to get the police involved first. When Zayne heard her, he immediately insisted oncalling the police. Madam Berkeley was shocked," Heinz recalled what had happened, still surprised by the development, "But |get the feeling that Madam Berkeley doesn't really want to go to the police station.

Zayne was the one who insisted that she turn herself in and he even sent her over to the station personally. I'm not sure why hedid all that so readily.

To tell you the truth, I'm still puzzled. How can someone just turn their mother in like that? | would never have expected such anoutcome," Heinz confessed.

"You're not the only one. I'm also very surprised,” Timothy said. "Zayne has always been righteous ever since he was a child. Hewas never very talkative but he has always been smart. | think his strong sense of justice and responsibility made him willinglyturn his mother in."

Heinz nodded at that. "Yes, | think you're right. He did say he wanted to have a clear conscience."Heinz had hoped that was the case.

"Perhaps that's the sole reason. He must have already realized the issues me and his mother were facing. When | proposed thedivorce today, he actually supported it. | guess I'm just really out of touch with the kids," Timothy sighed, "I really don't knowwhat's going on in Zayne's mind most of the time. | feel bad for my children as well. Especially Grace, then Zayne and Eamon."

“Well, Mr. Yarbrough, perhaps you can try getting to know them from now on. Let's end the discussion here. | don't want to wastetoo much energy thinking about this. But if Madam Berkeley tries anything next time, I'm not going to be as forgiving," Heinzstated firmly. He didn't want to spend too much time on this matter anymore.

Don't worry, the same goes for me as well," Timothy declared his stance.

"Grace was the one who didn't want to hold a grudge against all of you this time. | respect her decision as well because shereally cares about you." Heinz said. He understood Grace's desire for familial love.

"Grace is a good child. It's all myfault,” Timothy felt remorseful, "I'msorry. | owe Grace far too much.""You do, Mr. Yarbrough. |'m afrai

that you won't he-gbletbSnake'up forif your liketime. Her feelings for youare also very complicated. She can'tbear to cut off contact with you,however, you did say you were goingto visit her less often in the future. I'msure we all know this decision is idealfor everyone involved, but | can seethat she's actually struggling andunwilling to part with you. Pleaseread the original content atNovelDrama.Org.

After all, Grace is the kind of person who can even take in the children borne by my father and her mother. What's more, you areher father." Heinz elaborated.

Timothy's eyes narrowed at that, shining with unknown emotions.

After Heinz finished speaking, he gave Timothy a quick nod and proceeded to head back to the ward.Timothy stood motionlessly in the corridor for a long while.

After a long while, he eventually came to his senses, turned around, and left.

In the ward, Grace was sitting on the bed dazedly. It seemed like her mind was preoccupied with something, but no one knewwhat she was thinking.

Just as Heinz was about to speak, the doctor came in with a report in his hand.

"Mr. Jones, Mrs. Jones," the doctorgreeted, "The results came out thismorning. We have performed a aacomprehensive gnalysidsandhavecopeladed that the fetuses haveremained unharmed and largelyunaffected. Looks like some doctorshad been overly worried.

"That's great," Grace said.
