Chapter 946

Grace instantly understood what Alex was trying to convey.

She felt bitterness in her heart.

Heinz was probably crying over the injustice against his mother, right?

“Alex, please take care of Heinz."

“Alright, you can be rest assured."

After Grace hung up the phone, she rubbed the space between her eyebrows.

She had just received a call from her younger sister, Alice. She called to inform her that she knew about their mother's death.She was sobbing endlessly throughout the call.

Grace understood that Alice, too, cared about their mother. No matter what, Candace was still their mother.After consoling Alice, she decided to call Heinz. However, Heinz did not answer her call at all.

Grace started to feel anxious. She had a bad feeling about this.

It seemed like he was crying over how unfair it was for his mother.

When Grace heard from Alex that her mother had left him a suicide letter, she roughly understood the situation. It seemed thatthe contents of the letter was what Lawrence needed. However, as for Heinz and his mother, it was very hurtful.

She sighed and looked at the sky. It was already dark and Heinz was still in the cemetery. It seemed that he was in a bad mood.

She felt a little hungry. She made her way to the restaurant to have dinner. However, as soon as she picked up her fork, sherealized that she did not have the appetite to eat.

Yet she forced herself to take a couple of bites.Heinz did not come back for a long time.The clock kept on ticking.

Several hours had passed since he walked out of the door. It was currently 11 o'clock in the evening and Heinz was nowhere tobe seen.

Grace was getting anxious by the second. She decided to call Heinz again. The phone kept ringing but no one answered.Abad feeling welled up in Grace's chest. She felt extremely helpless and decided to give Alex a call.

However, Alex did not answer his phone at that time. This made Grace more anxious and worried.

At that moment.

Alex was standing behind Heinz as Heinz stared at his mother's grave. He had been standing there for more than four hours.Alex watched from a distance. President Jones was like a statue as he stood motionless in front of his mother's grave.

He seemed very downcast.

Alex watched him from afar and did not dare to talk to him. He did not dare to disturb him either. When his phone suddenly rangand he saw that it was Grace calling, he instantly became anxious.

Heinz also heard his phone ringing. He turned around slightly and looked at Alex as he asked, "Is it Grace?"

"Yes." Alex immediately nodded.

Heinz said, "Why don't you wait for me in the car? I'll call her back."

"Yes, Sir."

Soon, Alex left. Heinz retrieved his phone from his pocket and realized that he had several missed calls from Grace.He then returned her call.novelbin

As soon as Grace heard her phone ring, she immediately answered the phone.

"Hello, Heinz?" Her voice was full of worry.

"I'm sorry, Grace." Heinz's voice was deep and low. He was obviously downcast. "| am at the cemetery. | just suddenly felt likevisiting my mother. I'm sorry that | did not answer my phone. You must be worried."

Grace felt her heart tighten. She obviously felt Heinz's politeness and alienation.

She smiled bitterly and said, "It's alright. | was just worried about you. Quickly come home and have dinner."

“I'm on my way," Heinz said. "Why don't you call it an early night? You don't have to wait for me."

Just like that, he hung up the phone.

Grace held the phone in her hand. She was stuck in a daze for a long time and could not snap back to reality for a while.She felt that something was wrong.

Of course, she did not listen to his advice by calling it an early night. As long as Heinz wasn't home, she would not go to bed.

Grace sat alone in the living room. At that moment, Lowell came over. When he saw that his sister was a little dispirited, helooked at her worriedly and asked, "Grace, are you alright? You've been absent- minded since dinner. What happened?"

When she turned around and saw Lowell's concerned face, she shook her head and said, "It's nothing, Lowell. It's getting late,so why are you not asleep yet?"

"I've already washed up and changed into my pyjamas. | was about to go to bed but | suddenly remembered that you seemed alittle off and Heinz isn't back yet. | was a little worried, so | thought I'd come and check on you."

“Heinz will be back in a minute. You can go to bed now," Grace said.

“Are you really okay?" Lowell was still worried. He was reluctant to leave his sister.
