Mr. Jones Be Gentle (Grace) novel Chapter 108

"Are you arguing with me?" Heinz Jones shouted coldly.

"I don't want to see you." Grace Smith felt aggrieved. "Could you leave me be for now?"

She felt so wronged and confused.

First of all, Jensen Charm's words pierced her heart and instilled extreme fear in her mind.

Then, Heinz was acting all weird.

Besides, she was in the one being admitted to the hospital.

She felt exhausted.

Hearing Grace chase him away, Heinz grew more furious. His pupils shrank sharply, and yelled, "Grace, I'm telling you, I won't leave anyway."

"Well, if you won't leave, I'll go." Grace reached out to pull out her IV drip on her hand. She didn't want to be in the same room with him.

Heinz grabbed her hand and stopped her from yanking her IV out. He shouted, "What are you doing? Don't you dare pull out the needle! I will make sure that you won't leave this room in one piece!"

Grace's hand froze. He looked very stern, which scared her.

At this moment, his arrogance made her fall into fear instantly. She paused and said angrily and sadly, "Heinz, what do you want? Go back to your office and smoke if you want. Don't shout at me like this."

"Oh! So you didn't have lunch today just because I was smoking and didn't pay attention to you? You were so angry, so you abused yourself?" He said as if he had come to an epiphany.

Grace was so furious that she shouted back, "I'm angry? Why should I be angry? I just trusted you too much. I thought you would bring me food today, but you didn't. After eating and drinking on your own, you continued to ignore me and completely forgot that I was not familiar with your place. Eat? How could I have the mood to eat?"

She said so much in one go, and her head was still very dizzy.

Heinz was stunned. He looked at her worriedly, and a hint of understanding emerged in his eyes.

For some reason, the phrase "trusted you too much" made him feel a little better.

However, he also felt displeased in an instant.

Did she mean he had let her down, and that she didn't want to trust him anymore?

"Let me go," Grace said grumpily.

"You promise not to remove the needle again." Heinz was afraid that she would remove the drip.

"I'm dizzy," she said in a low voice. "Let me lie down." "You promise?"

"I promise." Grace said coldly, "I won't fool around with my life, but I won't trust you anymore. Mr. Jones, I will take care of myself in future."

Heinz squeezed Grace's hand slightly, as his heart tightened with pain.

She would never believe in him anymore.

Never.

His eyes darkened while he pursed his lips. He swallowed his words when he was about to speak them.

"I'm sorry about what happened today. I neglected you." He said, "Lester is now buying you some food. You will feel much better after eating."

"I don't want to eat," she said coldly.

Unexpectedly, her stomach growled at this time.

It was very loud.

Embarrassed, she cast a glance at Heinz.

Heinz inevitably heard it, but he didn't want to fault her at this moment. He just said, "You have anaemia. You should pay more attention to your meals in future. Eat on time and take care of yourself when others cannot do so."

Grace didn't say a word.

Heinz too, did not say anything else.

Heinz's pupils contracted violently again, it was too much pain for him. He narrowed his eyes and looked at her. It turned out that she had always felt that she was being harassed. What an irony.

"That would be even better," He said in a deep voice. "Since you're treating it as a form of harassment, it means that you never took us seriously anyway."

Grace lifted the corner of her mouth and said disdainfully, "Yes, I didn't. Mr. Jones, it's not a loss to us at all."

He was so impulsive towards her. He held her in his arms, took advantage of her but he was not serious about her at all. Grace could only endure the disappointment, all of this befell her because she did not reject him anyway.

She would not let him know that in fact, she had been accepting him willingly.

Never.

"We're both adults, and nothing has happened between us. Don't take it to heart. Mr. Jones, take care of yourself, too," Grace said resolutely.

Heinz gritted his teeth, and there was a sharp light in his eyes. He could not help but say her name menacingly, "Grace!"

"Yes, that's my name," Grace said coldly, "Mr. Jones, you don't have to repeat it again and again."

Heinz gritted his teeth even harder.

"You deserve what happened today, with your attitude," He stood up and shouted at Grace in a harsh tone, looking very frustrated.

Grace felt a stab of pain in her heart and also yelled back, "Why are you so hateful?"

Heinz locked his eyes on hers with his eyebrows were tightly knitted. This woman was as stubborn as a mule.

He snorted, sat down again, and glared at her.

Grace also turned away in anger.

What was wrong with her? Why did she act like a child? Why was she so angry with him? It was obvious that they could not continue anyway. Why did she have to do this to herself?

She comforted herself, took a deep breath, and resumed her mechanical tone, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have behaved this way. Let's remain in a cordial relationship. What's more, we haven't started on our interview. Mr. Jones, please understand the circumstances, and I apologise for the delay."
