Chapter 555

"What are you afraid of?" Heinz frowned. "I don't think it's a good sign that she is looking for you."

"I'll meet her once." Grace looked at Heinz, "I've thought about it carefully. I think it's better for me to

meet her."

"I'll go with you," Heinz said in a low voice. "I'm worried."

"Okay." Grace did not refuse. "I will tell the butler to pack up the luggage for the children. Well go

together."

"That's more like it." Although Heinz was still not satisfied, he did not say anything else as Grace had

agreed.

Half an hour later.

At the entrance of the Classic Cafe, Grace got out of the car, followed by Heinz.

Alex followed from behind and stood at the side of the car. He said respectfully, "President, I've brought

four men with us."

"Alright." Heinz nodded and walked into the cafe with Grace, hand in hand.

"Grace!" She heard someone calling her.

She looked over and saw Sonia waving at them as she stood by the window.

She wore a white blouse and a skirt, which made her look very intelligent and elegant.

It was obvious that Sonia was a little surprised when she saw Heinz, but she calmed herself down.

Grace said to Heinz in a low voice, "Do you really want to go over with me?"

"Of course," Heinz said. "I want to see what her motive in meeting you is."

Grace no longer tried to persuade him and walked over to Sonia with him.

Heinz's glance was very sharp. His stare made Sonia feel uneasy. She lowered her eyes as she did not

dare to look at Heinz.

"Grace, thank you for coming."

Grace smiled faintly and did not answer.

"What coffee would you like?" Sonia asked, "HI treat you to coffee."

Heinz was still staring at Sonia with a cold gaze. He said in a low voice, "Do you think that we cannot

afford our own coffee? Do we need you to treat us?"

Sonia pursed her lips and she smiled awkwardly.

The atmosphere became tense and silent.

Fortunately, Sonia adjusted herself quickly and looked at Grace. She pulled her lips and said, "I'm

sorry, Grace."

"You don't have to apologize." Grace shook his head and said, "Tell me, why did you want to meet

me?"

When Sonia heard this, she immediately looked at Heinz. She hinted that it was inconvenient for her to

convey her motives because he was present.

"If there's nothing to say, well leave," Heinz said as

he looked at Grace.

Grace nodded and said, "Alright."

Both of them acted like they were about to leave.

Sonia could not hold it in any longer. "I'm sorry, Mr. Jones and Grace. I really have no choice. That's

why I'm begging you to help me."

Grace saw that she really had no way out.

"I love Simon." Sonia suddenly looked up and made eye contact with Grace. After a few seconds of

silence, she turned to Heinz and said, "I love Simon very much."

Heinz's face went blank as he realized that Sonia really loved Simon.

He didn't expect that anyone would like Simon.

He looked at Grace and felt that it was better for someone to like Simon after all.

Grace was very surprised, but she understood instantly. Sonia liked Simon; that was why she was

willing to be the mistress.

"I don't want to hide it from you. I thought of separating him from Marry to become Mrs. Brown, but

Simon also told me from the beginning that he was merely playing around with me." Sonia looked at

Grace and said, "I was so mean that I wanted to take advantage of you to help me achieve my wish."

Grace wrinkled her forehead.

"You wanted to take advantage of Grace?" Heinz frowned and his eyes were cold.

Sonia's heart skipped a beat and her back tensed. "Mr. Jones, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to

be with Simon so badly. I just wanted to let Grace know what had happened between Simon and me. I

purposely said some things in front of Grace that day. It was all because of this."

"I see." Grace's voice rang. That day, Sonia's words were extremely suspicious. It was because she

wanted to draw attention for people to suspect them.

"I'm sorry," Sonia said as she sweated. She looked embarrassed as helplessness flashed in her eyes.

"Grace, you know that a person will do anything when they really love someone."

Grace did not respond nor did she refute.

Perhaps, she was right.

She had never experienced that kind of feeling.

She didn't agree that one should hurt others and violate all morality without thinking about the

consequences.

"This is not an excuse!" Grace said, "This is not an excuse for you to ruin someone else's marriage. As

the saying goes, the affection of mankind is still restrained. Not only did you ruin their marriage, but you

also humiliated Marry."

Even if Marry's personality wasn't great, Sonia shouldn't have been involved in Marry and Simon's

marriage.

Grace had always been clear with the things that she should and shouldn't do.

"Yes, you are right." Sonia nodded. "I know what you mean. I was wrong. No matter what, it's my fault."

"If you truly understood, you wouldn't have looked

for me." Grace looked at her. "In fact, you should know that it's useless to look for me."

Sonia was flustered. She gazed at Grace and immediately shook her head. "No, Grace. I came to you

because I need a witness."

Grace was shocked instantly.

She turned around to look at Heinz.

Heinz was also a little taken aback.

"You need a witness?"

"That's right." Sonia said, "I can take the stand to testify against Simon."

"Miss Yeager." Heinz smiled and said, "I'm truly confused as to your real motives of saying this."

"I'm doing it for Simon's sake." Sonia gave a wry smile. "I love him and I hope that he'll be happy."

"You want him to be happy by sending him into prison?" Heinz raised the corner of his lips playfully. It

was the first time he had heard such a thing.

Sonia nodded and lowered her eyelashes. The expression on her face was helpless and bitter. "I'mnovelbin

also doing it for my own sake as well. If he stayed in prison for a few years, he could rethink his life and

start over."

"Your thoughts are really interesting.” Grace said, "But forgive me for not believing your true purpose."

"Grace," Sonia said, "Simon can only grow up and be completely separated from Marry if he was sent

to prison. Once he is set free, I can take care of him. I have the ability, and I won't look down on him.

Moreover, both of you want him to be punished by

what he did as well."

"I do hope so." Grace said slowly, "However, this is not a bargaining chip for negotiation. I think that the

law is fair and no one should interfere."

"If I could take the stand, the process would be smoother. Think about it. There is only evidence that

Simon cheated and abused his wife, but there are no witnesses. Without witnesses, the results won't

be the best. If I could testify against him, he would definitely be imprisoned."

Grace did not like Sonia who seemed scheming.

"Your schemes are great but have you ever thought that Simon will hate you even more when he is

released from prison, because you testified against him?" "He'll hate me." Sonia nodded. "But I'll

accept it."
