Female Novel
Chapter 295
The sudden kiss without warning made Grace's heart beat wildly.
Her first instinct was to fight back. But according to her understanding of Heinz, she knew that it would
be in vain as he would only be even more forceful if she had struggled.
So, Grace stood rooted to the ground. No matter how he kissed her, she made no response and didn't
move a muscle.
Heinz, who had kissed her with a mix of fury and frustrated passion, could feel the nonresponsiveness
from her. He felt a pang of sadness.
"Grace?" Tyler's voice resounded from outside. "Are you in the restroom?"
Grace remained stationary. When Heinz heard Tyler calling out for her, he became even more agitated.
He was reluctant to let go of Grace.
He was in a state of panic, that once he had let go of Grace, she would slip away from his grasp, and
he would lose her forever.
That feeling sent him on edge and he was unable to accept it.
He could only kiss her fiercely and wait eagerly for her response.
However, Grace stayed motionless.
He was in a fury that he bit her lip.
There was a faint metallic taste in his mouth. It was the taste of blood.
Grace felt a sting on her lip. But she remained still and her brows drew together.
Realizing that his plan was not working, Heinz finally let go of her.
Grace stared at him coldly.
Heinz was appalled and his body froze. Fear flashed through him as he felt the absence of warmth in
her eyes.
In an instant, his anger dissipated.
Outside of the restroom, Tyler was still calling out for Grace. "Grace, are you in there?"
Grace did not make a sound. She looked at Heinz, her eyes were even colder.
Heinz frowned and opened his mouth, but no words came out.
At last, Grace raised her voice and said, "Tyler, I'm in the toilet. Wait a minute."
She reached over and placed her hand on the door handle.
Heinz swiftly grabbed her wrist almost subconsciously. He did not want to let her go.
"Tyler, just a moment," Grace said again in a deep voice.
Heinz tightened his grip on her as if he wanted to crush her wrist bones. He squinted at her with a deep
look in his eyes.
Grace ignored his existence and did not turn to look
at him.
He was holding her left hand, so she opened the door with her right hand.
Heinz could feel a dull pain in his heart. He had never known this side of her, so headstrong and
arrogant.
He couldn't believe that he had been given the cold shoulder from her.
He felt as if his heart was being stabbed with a knife.
"You have no respect for me at all. When it comes to relationships, you are just a fool," Grace lowered
her voice and said.
Heinz was taken aback and he looked at her in disbelief.
"What did you say?" he said.
Grace fixed her cold gaze at him and replied, "You know exactly what I meant. You accused me of
playing with your feelings and called it quit in the first place. And now you're here begging for more?
Why are you so shameless?"
Right after saying that, she shook off his hand forcefully.
Heinz was stunned.
But he finally loosened his grip and let go of her hand.
At that moment, he felt a pang in his heart. It left a void that could not be filled.
He felt a deep sense of frustration. He was so used to having his cards right in the world of business,
but when facing her, he couldn't help but to feel like a failure.
He was a loser.
Grace pushed the door open and left without looking back.
Still in a daze, Heinz was frozen to the ground. The sound coming from outside jolted him out of his
trance.
"Did you fall into the toilet?" Tyler teased Grace as soon as he saw her coming out of the toilet.
"Let's get out of here," she nodded at him, giving away no emotion in her voice.
However, Tyler's eyes fell on her face. There was blood at the corner of her mouth, and her lips were a
little swollen.
It took him by surprise.
He turned to look in the direction of the restroom with a sharp gaze.
At the same time, a tall figure walked out.
A moment of realization struck Tyler.
He did not acknowledge Heinz. Instead, he put his arm around Grace's shoulder and said, "The dishes
have been served. You've been away for so long and I was getting anxious."
"I'm fine," Grace said. Her mind was all over the place and she did not notice Tyler's hand placing on
her shoulder. "I've told you that you can start eating first." "It'd be rude if I don't wait for you," Tyler said.
Grace asked, "Are you being courteous to me?"
"Not really. I'm just being respectful to women," Tyler replied.
"Well, you did a good job," she gave a half-hearted response.
Respect?novelbin
Heinz stared at their backs coldly as they left.
Failing to have Grace under control, he was burning with rage.
Seeing that she was treating him cold-heartedly, she had clearly moved on from him.
Heinz did not know what to do.
"President," Alex walked over quickly. He realized that Heinz was standing in front of the female's
restroom. "The banquet has begun. Shall we take a seat?" he reminded him.
Alex was afraid that Heinz would be misunderstood as a rogue by loitering near the female's restroom.
Driven to distraction, Heinz stood frozen to the ground.
In that moment, a few women came to the restroom in a group. They gaped at Heinz who was still
standing in front of the female's restroom as if he was a pervert.
However, Heinz did not move an inch. His eyes looked cold and empty.
"Such a handsome man. But what is he doing here?" one of the women exclaimed.
Alex felt embarrassed.
"Is he a pervert?" another woman asked.
"President!" Alex immediately called out to him.
Heinz came to his senses and was suddenly aware that a group of women were fixing their eyes on
him.
Startled, he immediately bowed his head and left in haste.
One of the women said, "Oh my God! Such a good looking man. And he actually came out from the
ladies' toilet. He must be out of his mind."
"Probably. But I heard that guy called him President. I wonder what kind of President he is!" another
woman chimed in.
"A rogue President, no doubt!"
Alex threw them a cold glance and the women immediately held their tongues and rushed into the
restroom.
"President," Alex said. "The banquet has begun. Would you like to join us?"
Heinz nodded.
After that, he remained silent. He was too distracted to utter a word.
No one dared to speak.
Alex looked at him, stepped forward and said in a low voice, "President, do you want me to invite Miss
Smith over?"
Upon hearing that, Heinz frowned and cast a cold glance at him.
Alex was startled.
"That's not necessary," Heinz said in a deep voice.
Since Grace had been turning her back on him, why would he bother to lay up trouble for himself?
Alex looked at Lester, who shook his head in response.
He did not dare to speak anymore.
After having dinner.
When the reception was over, they bumped into Grace and Tyler again in the parking lot.
It was almost as if it was destined to happen.
When Lester saw Grace and Tyler, he could only greet them. "Hi, Mr. Henley, Miss Smith."
