Female Novel
Chapter 462
Old Master Carter's words sent a ripple through Heinz's heart.
"Did Grace love him?" He wondered.
Heinz was lost in thought.
Grace's face appeared in his mind and he thought of the scenes of them getting along with each other
everytime.
It seemed that she hadn't said that she loved him.
Moreover, Grace's magnanimity was indeed very surprising.
That kind of magnanimity that could tolerate Jodie's parents was something that most people would not
be able to do.
When Heinz thought about it, he felt very surprised.
This was not the behavior of a typical woman.
This was something that only a great heroine would do.
Old Master Carter's words had smashed heavily into Heinz's heart.
Seeing the expression on his grandson's face, Old Master Carter narrowed his eyes slightly, "Looks like
you're also suspicious about it."
"Suspicious?" Heinz's brows furrowed tightly. "The child is already born. What do I have to suspect?"
"You don't have confidence in her feelings for you," The old man said lightly. "It's clear that you are not
so sure, either."
"Don't alarm me with your words," Heinz said in a low voice, "You don't know Grace. I'm clear about my
woman's heart."
"I didn't say anything. I just feel that she doesn't care so much about you." The old man reminded, "You
know who you are and how much money you have. Do you know how many women would want to be
your wife?"
"I don't think she's that kind of person," Heinz said firmly, "Don't worry about it."
"That would be the best." The old man was not angry. "Okay, let's not talk about useless things. Let's
talk about the matter where you will send the child to play with me for two days.”
"I won't bother telling you that it's useless," Heinz said. "I suggest that you find an old companion to
keep you company and spend your days together."
"No." The old man was extremely resolute. "Don't do anything useless."
Heinz looked at the old man who was still in high spirits. His thin face and figure were like a soldier's,
but he'd been lonely ever since his grandmother's death.
Heinz knew that it was better for his grandfather to find an old companion.
"Are you sure?" Heinz asked again.
"Yes."
"You can't get Mrs. Hudson no matter what," Heinz reminded kindly. "Old Master Hudson is still in good
health."
The old man sighed. "It has been a long time. Do you really think I could forget her?"
"You're the only one who knows whether you have let that matter go or not."
"Then, what about Jodie?" Old Master Carter's eyes were sharp as he stared at Heinz. "You're also
thinking about her, aren't you?"
"We're talking about you. How did I get involved in this?" Heinz asked with a frown.
"It's the same," Old Master Carter said, "A long time has passed. Our feelings were lost with the time."
Heinz was stunned and said nothing.
When the old man saw him stand up, he was also displeased. "Are you leaving now?"
"Yes." Heinz nodded. "I'm very busy."
"What the hell are you busy with!" The old master made it clear that he didn't want him to go.
"I'm different from you, Grandfather," Heinz said in a low voice. "I have to raise my child, date a woman,
and run my company now. I'm not like you. You're retired."
Hearing that, Old Master Carter frowned, a flicker of desolation in his eyes.
Heinz was stunned. He paused for a moment before saying, "How about this? I'll ask Grace to come
and have dinner with us when she's free."
The old man's eyes lit up. He looked up at Heinz and put on a noble attitude, "Why should I have a
meal with that woman? I want to eat with my greatgrandson."
"If you don't respect the mother of your great-grandson, do you think he would come and relieve your
boredom?" Heinz asked.
The old man said, "Heinz, sit down first."
Heinz could only obey. "What do you want to talk about now?"novelbin
"I'd like to tell you something seriously."
"So you weren't serious before?"
"Don't joke around with me," the old man said in a low voice. "Let's be serious."
"Fine."
"Let's be clear on this: I'm already very old and likely won't live for much longer," Old Master Carter
said.
Heinz, of course, knew this. However, when the old man brought it up, he still frowned and said, "Don't
say such things. You're going to live for a long time so that you can pester your great-grandson."
"I want to do that," Old Master Carter said, "But everyone's life span is limited, so I may not be able to
live that long."
"Grandpa, don't think like that."
"I'm not talking about my life. I'm talking about something else. Don't interrupt me," Old Master Carter
said.
"Then go ahead."
"Who do you think will be able to protect you in Northern City once I'm no longer around?" Old Master
Carter looked straight at Heinz.
Heinz's brows knitted tightly together.
"Don't deny it. Without me, your business wouldn't have been so smooth-sailing." The old man said,
"You know what those people think."
Heinz naturally understood.
Although Old Master Carter had retired, he had lived a glorious life and had a good foundation.
Heinz felt that he had a good business, but the world was cruel and many people had ulterior motives.
He understood what his grandfather meant.
It was undeniable that his grandfather's existence had given him a form of silent support and
protection.
"Grandpa, what do you want to say? Just get to the point.”
"When I'm gone, do you think your father will support you?” Old Master Carter asked.
"I don't need him."
"He should also be able to protect you." The old man said with disdain, "My daughter wasted her time
being with your father."
"Grandpa, my mother is a smart woman."
"She was also the apple of my eye," Old Master Carter said proudly, "She's the daughter of the Carter
family, so of course she's smart like I am."
"Grandpa." Heinz steered the conversation back to the topic, "I know what you want to say. I am not the
same as I used to be. They can't hurt me that easily."
"Young man." Old Master Carter looked at him.
"Don't be too arrogant."
"Grandpa." Heinz stared back at him very seriously, "I know what you are worried about."
"No, you don't."
"Didn't you ask Claris to be my future wife because you wanted to rely on the Hudson family to protect
me and the Jones Estate?" Heinz said.
The old man was stunned, his eyes fixed on him.
Heinz knew that he had correctly guessed his grandfather's thoughts.
"Since you understood, you should know that the woman you're looking for may not be of much help to
you," Old Master Carter said.
"Grandpa, I don't need my woman to help me," Heinz said in a low voice, "I just want her to be my wife.
I don't need her to have any background."
Old Master Carter didn't say anything.
Obviously, he was worried about the future.
"Let's make an appointment and meet one day," Old Master Carter said.
"Fine."
"Make it as soon as possible," Old Master Carter added.
"What's the rush?" Heinz smiled. "I have to talk to her first."
"Look at you. You look like you're afraid of her," Old Master Carter couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.
"Useless." "It's none of your business." Heinz didn't take him seriously. "I'm willing to favor my woman.
You have no say in this."
The old man snorted. "You've fallen into the love trap and can't get out anymore."
As they were talking, the phone rang.
