Chapter 168

Grace Smith could no longer focus on her thoughts. She looked at his handsome face in a daze.

She stared into his eyes. In his deep eyes, there was a reflection that she couldn't understand, and her

face turned red.

It was as if she was slowly blending into his world.

It was a really good feeling.

"Hmm?" Heinz did not wait for her answer and whispered in her ear, "Answer me, are you still looking

for an excuse?"

She was stunned and subconsciously shook her head.

He didn't hold back any longer. "Good girl."

His voice was so husky and soft that it made those who heard it feel good too.

Grace closed her eyes.

It was going to be a long night.

Grace suffered his wrath through the night. By the time they were done, it was already one in the

morning.. They then went to sleep together.

At six o'clock in the morning, Grace suddenly opened her eyes.

She was awakened by the sound of someone knocking on the door.

A voice came from the other side. "Wake up, its time to measure your body temperature."

She suddenly came to her senses. Her waist was held down by his big arm and she could not move.

She could feel her whole body aching and sore.

"Wake up." Grace muttered and pushed him.

Heinz frowned and opened his eyes. His usual sharpness and alertness absent from his sleepy eyes.

He said impatiently, "Knocking on the door this early in the morning?"

"It's already past six o'clock" Grace said.

"So what?" Heinz raised his eyebrows and put his hand over Grace's forehead. "You're not having

fever anymore."

Grace rolled her eyes, "If you can do it with your hands, then there is no need for a thermometer any

longer."

Heinz glanced at her and gave her a good morning kiss before getting out of bed.

Grace sucked her breath in and said, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

"Do you think I mind!" he replied

She was stunned and composed herself. Then she said, "Will the nurses find out that we've been

together the whole night?"

"So what if they find out?"

"Then Nurse Remi is going to prick me twice again, isn't she?"

Heinz frowned. "She wouldn't dare!"

"I hope she doesn't!”

After she got up to freshen herself, she opened the door.

After two minutes, Remi pushed the door open and came in. When she saw her and Heinz, her

expression changed. She said coldly, "Miss Smith, it is time to measure your body temperature."

Grace noticed her annoyance, and guessed that the nurses probably knew that he stayed overnight,

hence the cold shoulder.

Needless to say, the nurse also knew that he pretended to be gay.

"Thank you." Grace thanked her. "For the hard work."

Remi turned around and left without saying another word.

Grace opened her mouth for a moment but closed it back.

She watched as Remi walked out from the room.

Grace measured her body temperature with the thermometer given by Remi.

Ten minutes later, Remi re-entered the room and said, "Your temperature."

Grace took the thermometer out and handed it to her.

Remi looked and it and recorded it without saying anything else.

Grace asked, "Do I still have a fever? What's the reading?"

Remi looked at her with a cold look. Without answering, she turned around again and left.

Grace was stunned.

"What's with that attitude?" Heinz suddenly shouted coldly.

Remi shivered in fear, as she slowly glanced at Heinz.novelbin

Heinz narrowed his eyes and looked at her with displeasure. "Is this how nurses should behave?"

Remi stood there in silence, shock evident on her face. She almost shed tears as she look at Heinz.

"Mr. Jones, what's wrong with my attitude?"

"What do you think?" Heinz asked in a low voice, "Didn't you hear what she asked?"

Seeing that Heinz was so concerned over Grace, Remi couldn't take it anymore. "I didn't hear it. I'm

sorry, Mr. Jones. I really didn't hear it."

"Since you didn't bring your ears to work, then you might as well not be a nurse. You are fired."

"No!" Remi was frightened by his threat. "Mr. Jones, I can't lose my job."

"Then do your job well." Heinz said coldly, "I'm warning you, you ought to fix that attitude of yours."

Grace also felt that Heinz can be quite scary when he is pissed off.

She saw Nurse Remi's expression, she could clearly tell that she still admires Heinz.

"Hey, stop saying that. You are scaring her," Grace said.

"Shut up." Heinz warned Grace with stern eyes and said, "For a person like her who is not serious

about her work, if I don't warn her this time, she will never appreciate her job."

Grace pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Remi's eyes were red.

Looking at him, she felt very wronged and said, "Mr. Jones, I was wrong."

"You'd better remember," Heinz said coldly. "This is your one and only chance. Otherwise, you might as

well get out of Northern City."

He would absolutely not tolerate this kind of attitude towards his woman.

"Yes. Thank you, Mr. Jones." Remi quickly left after thanking him.

Heinz still looked a little gloomy.

Grace said, "You're so fierce. It's really scary."

"You only know how to argue with me. If someone else bullies you, you become a coward." Heinz said

grumpily.

Grace was so embarrassed that she couldn't answer. After she collected herself, she said, "Thank you

for protecting me just now. It felt good to be protected by others."

He looked at her cute blushing cheeks, and said in a low voice, "You're so beautiful."

Grace grinned even wider at his comment.

Heinz said, "I'll go out and come back to have breakfast with you at seven o'clock." "Oh." Grace was

stunned. "Are you going to buy breakfast?" "Yes."

"Okay.."

Heinz soon left the room.

A few minutes later, Remi came back, looked at Grace and closed the door behind her.

She walked up to Grace, took off her mask, and looked straight at her.

Grace was stunned and asked, "Nurse Remi, can I help you?"

"Miss Smith, what is the relationship between you and Mr. Jones?"

Grace was stunned. "Why do you ask?"

Grace did not feel obliged to answer her.

"Mr Jones stayed here with you for the whole night."

"What are you trying to say?" Grace asked directly. "Just say it directly."

"Mr. Jones is one of the most famous bachelors in Northern City. Where did you come from? Why are

you together with him here?"

Grace's lips twitched. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You don't even know where I came

from. Don't you think it's ridiculous to question me here?"

Remi pursed his lips and said coldly, "Mr. Jones is only interested in you now."

Grace was speechless. "And what does that have to do with you?"

"You'd better stay away from Heinz." A sharp light breakfast?" "Yes."

"Okay.."

Heinz soon left the room.

A few minutes later, Remi came back, looked at Grace and closed the door behind her.

She walked up to Grace, took off her mask, and looked straight at her.

Grace was stunned and asked, "Nurse Remi, can I help you?"

"Miss Smith, what is the relationship between you and Mr. Jones?"

Grace was stunned. "Why do you ask?"

Grace did not feel obliged to answer her.

"Mr Jones stayed here with you for the whole night."

"What are you trying to say?" Grace asked directly. "Just say it directly."

"Mr. Jones is one of the most famous bachelors in Northern City. Where did you come from? Why are

you together with him here?"

Grace's lips twitched. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You don't even know where I came

from. Don't you think it's ridiculous to question me here?"

Remi pursed his lips and said coldly, "Mr. Jones is only interested in you now."

Grace was speechless. "And what does that have to do with you?"

"You'd better stay away from Heinz." A sharp light flashed across Remi's eyes, and she ordered, "Stop

pestering him."

Grace looked up at her but didn't say anything. She just looked at her quietly without flinching.

"Did you hear what I just said?" Remi shouted again.

Grace looked at her and said faintly, "You seem to have forgotten what Heinz had just warned you

about."

Remi's eyes flashed and she looked at Grace with fear in her eyes. "You won't understand my

relationship with him."

"Oh?" A glimmer of light flashed in Grace's eyes.

"Your relationship with him?"
