Female Novel
Chapter 985
Heinz looked up at Zachary with a bitter smile and said, "Thank you for understanding."Zachary stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, but he did not say anything.Perhaps at this time, what Heinz needed most was silent companionship and support.
Just then, the phone rang again.
When Heinz looked at it, he found that Lawrence was calling again.
He chuckled under his breath and said to Zachary, "Look, he is a madman. If | don't answer his call, he would keep calling until |do."
Zachary frowned and said, "You don't have to answer it."In such a situation, it was useless to say anything.
Lawrence proposed his request without taking into account Heinz's feelings or anyone else's. He was only focused on achievinghis own goals and completely ignored everyone's pain.
His love was supreme, and no one was comparable.Therefore, Zachary thought that Heinz should not pick up the phone. Heinz hung up the phone again.
But the phone rang once more. Heinz glanced at it, and as expected, it was still Lawrence. This time, Heinz hung up the phonesilently.
"Alex, let's go," Heinz instructed.
"Yes, sir." Alex immediately started the car.
“Let's go and find Jensen," Heinz said.
Alex started the engine and drove straight to the police station.They did not say anything along the way.
In the interim, Nerissa had arrived at the Smith family's home.
She came to see Grace and Alice. The three people were sitting in the living room and chatting. In the middle of theirconversation, the butler came in and reported, "Mr. Jones is here and he said that he wants to see you."
Grace paused for a moment and asked, "Mr. Jones? Are you talking about Heinz's father?"
The butler nodded and replied, "Yes."novelbin
Grace was very surprised. Why had he come at this hour?
The butler saw Grace's hesitation and he cleverly asked, "Why don't you give Mr. Jones a call andask him how to deal with his father?"
Grace shook her head and said, "No, Heinz is very busy. Let him come in."
Grace thought that it had been two days since Candace's death, thus the meeting was necessary. She had to meet Lawrencesooner or later, so she felt that there must be a reason why he took the initiative to show up.
After giving it a thought, she nodded and told the butler to bring him in.
Before long, Lawrence was brought in by the butler. When he saw Grace, Alice, and Nerissa, he did not hesitate to ask, "Grace,do you have time for a talk?"
Grace stood up and said to him, "Sit down, please. Butler, please serve Master Jones a cup of tea."Lawrence stood still. She did not call him father but Master Jones instead. It seemed that she hadn't accepted him.
Having Grace kept addressing him as Master Jones, there was a touch of gloom in his eyes. He lowered his head and sighedwithout saying anything. Then, he sat down on the sofa next to her.
The butler then brought a cup of tea and put it on the table. He said to Lawrence, "Master Jones, please have a cup of tea."Lawrence did not respond.
Grace also sat down on the sofa and looked at him, asking, "Do you have something to say to me?"
Lawrence did not look up or speak, but she knew that he had her question.
He was trying to find his words.
Alice did not have a good impression of Lawrence, especially since Candace died because of him. Thus, she was really not keento see Lawrence.
Alice held back for a while before she spoke, "Master Jones, since you came to see Grace, just say what you want to say. Stopkeeping quiet.”
Lawrence raised his gaze to look at Grace and Alice, and then at Nerissa. Finally, his gaze fell back on Grace.He said, "Well, I'll cut to the chase and tell you why I'm here.”
“Hurry up and tell us what happened," Alice urged.
She thought that wasting people's time was equivalent to robbing them of their health and wealth.
“| want to bury your mother's ashes in the Jones family's ancestral tomb."
Hearing this, the three women were all shocked.
They stared at Lawrence in disbelief while their expressions were filled with astonishment.
Grace's first thought was that his request was absolutely out of the question.
"| don't think | can agree," Gracerefused directly. She looked atLawrence and said, "The relatibetween oth of you simply lovers.Yooitt weren't even married, andmy mother absolutely has no reasonto be buried in the ancestral grave ofthe Jones family. Moreover, it is veryunfair to Heinz and mymother-in-law." Please read theoriginal content at NovelDrama.Org.
She had refused without hesitation.And Lawrence had never expected this.
"Well, then tell me, where do you want her ashes to be buried? She is dead now. Do you still want to make a fuss over a deadperson?" Lawrence replied in an accusing tone.
His tone made Grace and Alice feel very uncomfortable.
Grace answered, "I can't agree with what you have done. According to the rules, | shouldn't say this to you, but since you cameto me, | don't think you would agree even if | don't say anything.”
Lawrence frowned, feeling puzzled.
"Master Jones, both you and Momwere not legally married. When youleft home with her, yau had rereWe tes Se) divorced.ou have no right to arrange mymother's cremains. If you forciblyhandle the matter, we will call the
police." Please read the originalcontent at NovelDrama.Org.
"| just want her to be buried by my side. When I pass, | can be buried with her," Lawrence spoke firmly.
Grace responded impolitely, "People like you who are disloyal to a married family have no right to do this. | don't know if youhave mentioned this request to Heinz, but | do not agree to it, and Alice will definitely not agree either."
Alice nodded and said indignantly, "Of course, | won't agree. How could I? It's too much.""Why not?" Lawrence said, "I'm doing this for Candace's own good."
"Because you're the cause of herdeath, because you two were notmarried, and because we arelegal rela vgs vito we Hightfully dealtht . You are not qualified in anyway." Grace stood up and looked athim, saying, "No matter what Heinzthinks, | will not allow you to hurt himand his mother any more than youdid." Please read the original contentat NovelDrama.Org.
At that moment, Heinz and Zachary had just returned from the police station after finishing their business.They stood at the door, and Heinz's body shook violently.From a distance, he stared at Grace who had refused Lawrence's absurd request. Heinz felt very relieved.
She had defended him.
