Chapter 114

Grace Smith was shocked and looked at him with her eyes wide open. There was an indescribable

shock in her beautiful big eyes.

Heinz Jones lowered his head and looked at her. Grace's eyes were so clear after they were moistened

by tears. They shone brightly, which were as beautiful as the peach blossoms of March.

Her long eyelashes fanned out alluringly. Even without makeup, she could be so beautiful. It could be

said that she was truly, a natural beauty.

Grace felt embarrassed to be stared at by him like that. She lowered her head slightly in

embarrassment and said, "Why should I dirty my hands? Besides, he's not even my ex-boyfriend."

Heinz raised his handsome eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curve up.

Not her ex-boyfriend?

"Then why did Simon say so?" Heinz still asked.

"It was an almost," Grace argued, "I really liked him at that time. I liked him so much that I could

abandon the whole world, he was the only one for me. But when I really lost him, I am able to let him

go. So I guess I didn't really like him that much."

"There are many things in life that I can't predict. After experiencing the most sorrowful things,

everything is no longer so painful." Grace thought.

She raised her eyes. Her clear eyes met the deep black eyes of his, and she smiled slightly.

That smile made Heinz's heart tingle. He felt a little pain.

Her smile was like the most beautiful flower on the edge of the cliff. After going through the wind and

frost, she still did not waver. She was incomparably stunning.

He blinked and twitched his eyes, then he looked away and cleared his throat. He said in a low and

hoarse voice, "What kind of things have you experienced?"

Was it the loss of a child? Heinz thought.

Grace wanted to say something, but she didn't say it out. She just looked at him and said, "The pain ofnovelbin

losing your loved ones."

He was stunned and speechless.

The two of them looked at each other.

Heinz said, "Next time, if he makes you upset again, you can directly slap him."

Grace smiled and said, "No, it's not necessary. Fighting is a useless."

"Then give a call to..." He paused for a moment and said, "Jensen."

Grace was surprised for a moment. There was a flash of astonishment in his eyes when she looked at

Heinz. Then she said in an unnatural tone, "It's alright, it will be a waste of time for a police officer. I'll

just ignore Simon."

Heinz noticed her change of emotion when she spoke about Jensen Charm.

"I'm afraid it's impossible to say that it doesn't matter." Heinz thought.

Heinz's eyes flashed, and he went back to his chair. He sat down, looked at his watch, and found that it

was almost time to get off work.

"Let's pack up and go back. Tomorrow, let's formally interview each other." he said.

Grace paused for a moment and nodded. "Okay."

They did not argue with each other anymore. Instead, they were very silent and packed their things to

get off work.

After packing up, Grace carried her bag on her back and said to Heinz, "I'm leaving, Mr. Jones."

Heinz nodded and said, "Okay."

Grace walked out.

Heinz saw her open the door, walk out, shut the door, and left without looking back.

He suddenly stood up and went straight outside.

Grace walked through the corridor, headed to the lift, and pressed the button to go downstairs.

The lift hadn't come up yet, so she could only wait for it.

Looking down at her feet, she took a deep breath and felt a warm bitterness in her heart.

Suddenly, a pair of leather shoes appeared in her eyes. She raised her eyes slightly. It was a pair of

long legs, belonging to Heinz.

Grace was stunned and looked at him. "Mr. Jones?"

"I'm off work, too. Let's go," Heinz said. "I'll send you home on the way."

"No, I can go home by myself." Grace shook her head.

Heinz was rendered speechless.

The lift came, and they entered.

They were the only two people there.

He was still as silent as ever.

No one spoke.

Soon, they reached the ground floor of the building. Grace walked out, followed by Heinz.

When they walked out of the building, they suddenly saw that Simon Brown was quarreling with Marry

Smith at the entrance.

Simon shouted at Marry, "So what if I don't do this deal? I never thought about doing this deal anyway.

Doing any business with him is humiliating. Without him, there are still a lot of people out there who

would cooperate with us."

Marry did not shout, but whispered something back to Simon instead.

Simon roared, "It's up to you."

Marry looked at him and turned away.

She didn't go to the car, but went towards the main road.

Simon shouted, "Marry!"

Marry did not look back but strode away.

Simon stomped his feet in anger. He turned around and saw Grace coming out of the building. He

immediately became furious, and went straight to

Grace.

Grace frowned.

Heinz quickly stepped forward and stood by Grace's side, in case of any emergency.

Simon quickly reached Grace, with anger in his eyes. He looked at Grace, then at Heinz, and said

coldly, "Grace, are you satisfied now?"

"What does it have to do with me?" Grace asked back.

"It's all because of you. You ruined our deal, and you ruined the relationship between your sister and I.

Why did you come back? You shouldn't have come back."

"Have you gone nuts?" Grace said coldly, "If you can't control your emotions, please see a doctor."

"You're saying that I'm insane?" Simon roared in a low voice.

"You act like you're out of your mind," Grace said in a cold voice. Then she left.

Simon reached out and blocked her way. "Let's make it clear."

Grace didn't move, but Heinz stepped forward and stood between Simon and her.

Heinz was slightly taller, so he looked at Simon in an imposing manner and said in a low voice, "Mr.

Brown, it's really your own problem if you can't afford to lose."

"What does it have to do with you?" Simon couldn't cooperate with Heinz anymore, so he decided not

to be polite to Heinz.

"Ha." Heinz smiled coldly and said, "What do you think it has anything to do with me?"

Simon met Heinz's sarcastic smile, and there was a hint of unwillingness in Simon's eyes. He looked

into Heinz's eyes and said, "Mr. Jones, you don't know the true relationship between Grace and I. If you

want to be with Grace, you'd better understand her past."

Heinz's eyes flashed with anger. He said, "Mr. Brown, your behaviour towards is really horrible and

disrespectful. It's really a shame to see a man who is so ungracious."

A look of embarrassment formed on Simon's face. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't. He

could only glare at Grace, who was behind Heinz.

Grace stepped forward. She looked at Simon and said in a low voice, "Simon, what does my past have

to do with you? What does it have to do with you who I am with now? Don't worry, I won't look at you

even if all the men in the world are dead."

"You!" Simon was furious. He pointed at Grace and said to Heinz, "Heinz, don't regret this!"

"Ha." Heinz chuckled again. "What does it have to do with you?"

"She's a promiscuous woman! Whore!" Simon pointed at Grace and shouted again, "You take her as a

treasure. You probably don't know her at all."
