Mr. Jones Be Gentle (Grace) novel Chapter 1307

Ernest still remained silent and just stared at Liam. He wanted to judge for himself if Liam was on Celeste or Cindy's side.

Before that, he would not rashly answer questions.

Liam frowned and looked at Ernest, questioning, "You still don't trust me?"

With this sentence, Ernest shook his head and explained, "I just don't want to take any risks. After all, we don't know whether you came here on your own or if it was Cindy that asked you to come here."

"I came here all by myself," Liam interrupted.

Ernest smirked. He let down his guard and explained, "Liam, since you are so straightforward, then I will be frank. We have only one motive, and that is to have Cindy sign the official documents to relinquish her position as Celeste's guardian. If she doesn't wish to do that, then she will continue to be her guardian until Celeste turns eighteen. Our priority is to ensure Celeste continues her studies."

Liam nodded and replied, "There's no doubt that the priority here is to ensure Celeste gets to continue studying."

"I'm very glad you agree with us. Liam, my dad doesn't want Cindy to know the whereabouts of Celeste for these few days," Ernest added, "We're planning on letting her cool down and figure out what she wants."

Liam was also a very smart person. With just one sentence, he was aware of what to do.

He nodded and said to everyone, "Well, I respect your decision, but I am involved in this matter. The reason why all of this turned sour is partially because of me. I am sorry for that, and if you all need my help, I'm always willing to lend you a hand."

"We just need you to not tell Cindy Celeste's whereabouts," Ernest reiterated.

"Consider it done," Liam nodded and continued, "Let's pretend I never came here. You guys can contact me anytime."

After finishing his words, Liam looked around, this time, more sincerely.

Ernest nodded and said, "Liam, you should go back and rest. You can rest in my room if you wish."

"I still have class after this," With that, Liam left very quickly.

Maria and Ernest saw him off, but Celeste did not go downstairs.

"Mr. Robinson, can you please give me an autograph?" Maria pleaded when Liam was about to leave.

Liam stopped and stared at Maria. Thinking of what she just said just now, he paused. He did not reject it nor did he agree.

Maria looked at him nervously and felt a little disappointed.

Was he going to give her an autograph or not?

Just then, Liam opened the car door. He took out a book from the car and gave it to Maria.

Maria was dumbfounded. She found that the book in his slender flingers was an album.

This was Liam's latest photobook.

There was an autograph on it.

Maria raised her eyes in surprise and met Liam's gaze, gasping, "Is this for me?"

Liam nodded.

Maria quickly took it over and thanked him, "Thank you, Mr. Robinson. I'm so happy! I'll be your fan forever."

Liam chuckled and muttered self-mockingly, "Your performance just now was far worse than a fan of mine."

Maria was a little embarrassed.

Then, Liam got into the car and left quickly.

Soon, his car left the premises.

For a long time, Maria was spaced out.

Ernest interrupted her trance, "Let's go back. Don't be a nymphomaniac."

Maria came to her senses and pouted, "What's wrong with being a nymphomaniac? He's my idol."

Ernest sighed, "I wonder if Liam will tell Cindy."

"Of course not," Maria denied, "He's not that kind of person. He's my idol, and I have absolute faith in him."

Ernest didn't pay much attention to her. He just took a glimpse at her and quickly went back.

Meanwhile, Liam returned to his own room without contacting Cindy. After taking a shower, he went to class.

When he came back in the evening, Katherine called him, "Liam, have you found Celeste yet?"

"No," Liam's tone was cold and distant.

"She's still missing?" Katherine was dumbfounded, "Did she not leave any traces?"

"Yes," Liam replied, "I've been looking for her all night. I have a class to attend during the day, so I went to class. I couldn't find her."

"Then why didn't you inform us?"

"Who should I report this to? Have you all been looking for Celeste?" Liam shot back.

Katherine was stupefied and felt a little embarrassed. She tried to explain, "Cindy doesn't allow me to look for her, and I can't just leave."

"Same here," Liam replied indifferently, "I have classes the next day so I have to go to sleep. Good night."

After that, he hung up the phone.

The car drove around the neighborhood and Cindy was seated inside the car. She squinted her eyes and stared at Heinz intensely.

"Stop the car," She suddenly said.

The driver had to stop the car.

Katherine lowered her tone and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I haven't seen an old friend for a long time. Of course, I have to come down and greet them," Cindy raised her chin slightly, looking very proud.

Katherine sighed, "Don't stir up trouble."

Cindy ignored her and got out of the car.

Just then, Heinz and Grace looked up and also noticed Cindy standing by the car outside the fence.

Grace was stupefied for a moment, hesitation flashing through her eyes. She asked Heinz softly, "Isn't that Cindy White?"

Heinz also saw Cindy. His sharp gaze narrowed as he watched Cindy silently for a few seconds.

Then, he looked away as if he didn't recognize her. Instead, he reached out to hold Grace's slender waist and said to her gently, "Honey, are you tired?"

"A little," After such a long shopping trip, she was indeed slightly exhausted.

Heinz hugged her tightly and tapped her nose intimately, saying, "Let me carry you back to the house."

As he spoke, he was about to carry Grace.

Just then, Cindy called out, "Well, well, isn't this Mr. Heinz Jones?"

That d*mn old hag.

Heinz cursed silently and turned to look at Cindy.

"I'm Cindy White," Cindy said as she walked into their compound without invitation right up to them.

Heinz shrugged. His gaze was devoid of emotion but his tone was full of disgust as he said, "Oh,

Cindy White?"

He pretended to recall her.

Cindy stared at him and smiled slightly, "Yes, I haven't seen you for several years. Mr. Jones, you look more handsome."

"As for you, you have grown so old that I almost couldn't recognize you," Heinz insulted her calmly, "At first glance, I was wondering who this old hag was. I didn't expect you to be Cindy White."
