Female Novel
Chapter 55
At 5:30 p.m.
A high-end Bentley raced across the bustling street.
"Lester, how's the relationship between Simon Brown and his wife?" A low and deep male voice asked.
"President, everyone says that they're a sweet and happy couple," replied Lester who was sitting in
front.
Heinz Jones frowned.
If their relationship was good, why did he treat Grace Smith like that? It was not a gentleman's behavior
to mingle around with his ex.
"Who do you find more beautiful, Grace Smith or Mrs. Brown?" Heinz Jones suddenly asked.
Lester felt a little stunned. He turned his head and stole a glance at Heinz Jones. Seeing that Heinz
Jones was staring back at him, Lester hurriedly said, "President, Miss Smith is more beautiful. She's a
natural beauty even without makeup. Mrs. Brown's makeup is exquisite, her office wear is also
branded."
Heinz Jones's frown soothed. The woman he had taken a liking to would surely be adorable.
Once Lester saw the president's mood improve, he immediately said, "Miss Smith wears decent outfits,
but her clothes are not from luxury brands. It seems that her lifestyle cannot be compared to Mrs.
Brown's. After all, Mrs. Brown is the head of Sunny Group, her identity and status are not ordinary."
"Humph." Heinz Jones snorted sarcastically.
Lester had no choice but to stop talking.
Heinz Jones finally opened his mouth and spoke in a disdainful tone, "No matter how well-dressed she
is, she's still missing some brain cells."
"Ahem, ahem, ahem-" Lester was almost choked to death by the president's rude words.
He was speechless. The president's words were spiteful, but it made sense.
"Lester, cough again and you'll get out of the car." Heinz Jones's threat made Lester stopped coughing.novelbin
However, Lester felt so uncomfortable and wanted to cough.
Heinz Jones glanced at him and said, "Now, I want to know about Grace Smith's situation."
"Yes!" Lester immediately made a phone call.
After a while, a message came in. "Miss Smith is detained by Director Chen in Entertainment Daily and
is not allowed to get off from work. It is said that Lorenzo Chen fell twice in the toilet today. He
suspected that Miss Smith was behind it, so he didn't let her leave."
"What the hell?" Heinz Jones lost his composure in an instant. "Go to Entertainment Daily now. I want
to see what's going on."
"President, didn't you say that you will wait for Miss Smith to find you?" Lester reminded him kindly.
Heinz Jones rolled his eyes at him. "I can't wait any longer. Do you have any objections?"
"Uh, no." Lester immediately shook his head. He did not dare to give any opinion.
The car rushed to Entertainment Daily.
It was already six o'clock when they arrived.
Lorenzo Chen's accident in the toilet for the second time was worse than the last. He lost his temper
and unleashed his rage on Grace Smith.
"Grace Smith, I dare you to say this is not your fault!" Lorenzo Chen said.
Grace Smith looked at the fuming Lorenzo Chen and said calmly, "Director Chen, I'm sorry that you fell
down. However, you fell down twice in the same place. You want to blame me for your carelessness?
Isn't this ridiculous? You're a director, yet you say I set you up. Isn't this too childish?"
It was really surprising that Lorenzo Chen fell again. This time, however, it was more embarrassing
because he was drenched with urine.
There were still yellow urine stains on his face, which made him look terrible.
Everyone did not say anything, but there was a hint of suspicion in their eyes when they looked at
Lorenzo Chen.
"It's his own carelessness but he blames others for it. That's going too far." Everyone thought.
"Nonsense." Lorenzo Chen said coldly, "I saw you come out of the men's bathroom, yet you said you
are not the one responsible for this?"
Grace Smith glanced at him, "Director Chen, I did enter the men's toilet just now but it with a purpose.
Based on what you said in the room before, you suspected all of us. I took a look from the door to see if
it was someone who tried to frame you."
"What garbage," said Director Chen. "You're obviously trying to harm me."
"Director Chen, since you want to act like this, then I won't say anything else. Since you were sure I
was trying framing you, why did you still not careful when entering the toilet? Did you fall and lose your
mind, or is there something wrong with your brain?"
Lorenzo Chen was rendered speechless by her blunt words.
He was ashamed and resentful. He pointed at Grace Smith, raised his hand, and slapped her in the
face.
A slap landed on her face and
a handprint immediately appeared on her skin.
Grace Smith covered her fair face, looked up at Lorenzo Chen, and said word by word, "Director Chen,
you slapped me in the face out of shame. We do not have to discuss this anymore, let's just call the
police."
Lorenzo Chen was more infuriated at her words. He raised his hand and wanted to slap her again.
Suddenly, a loud shout sounded in the office.
"Stop!" shouted Heinz Jones.
Grace Smith's body stiffened.
An inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.
Heinz Jones's voice seemed to be mixed with anger, it made her felt weird.
Why was he here?
Grace Smith did not look back. She straightened her back and shut her lips.
The sound of quick footsteps echoed, and soon he was already by her side. A black shadow flashed in
the corner of her eyes.
She was stunned.
The next second, her wrist was held firmly by his hot wide palm. His fingers were long and slender,
even the joints were clearly seen.
She pursed her lips and was forced to look up. Her eyes met with his, which were filled with worry.
Heinz Jones's eyes scanned her face. After looking at her for a while, he asked, "Does it hurt?"
Somehow, at this moment, her heart felt warm.
His concern was like the gentlest feather that could easily smooth away her scars.
Words could not come out of her mouth.
She was not a fragile person, but all she wanted now was to cry.
Seeing her like this, Heinz Jones's intimidating eyes glanced through Lorenzo Chen, as if piercing his
heart with sharp daggers.
"You dare hurt my selves. I guess you're really tired of living."
Lorenzo Chen was shocked. He thought that Heinz Jones was just toying with Grace Smith and would
ditch her as soon as he was bored with her. However, Heinz Jones didn't look like he cared nor did he
provide the sponsorship. Sadly, Lorenzo Chen must have been deeply mistaken.
Lorenzo Chen took a step back, fear flashing in his eyes.
"Didn't I give you my number?" said Heinz Jones in a gentle voice. "You called me this morning, but
now you don't call me when you're in trouble. Grace, are you treating me like a stranger?"
