True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 771

"Jodie and her father had an altercation right after the arson and he passed away. I've just arrived at the lock-up and am about to pay her a visit," Heinz answered.

"Dead? There has been no news about that yet," said a very surprised Zachary.

"Oh, it'll be plastered on all the news channels soon enough," Heinz reassured him. "What's up?"

"Grace's mother is back and she's hurt her pretty badly. I'm giving you the heads up so you can be prepared for it," Zachary replied.

"Grace's mother is back?" Heinz asked, not being able to suppress how surprised he was. "She's back and has hurt Grace badly? What do you mean by that?"

"You have no idea, do you? Aunt Candace said a lot of hurtful things to her," explained Zachary.

"Got it," Heinz replied. "I only know that her mother has not been there and caused a stir during the time she left. Many people said that Mrs. Smith didn't care about morality and loyalty and left Mr. Smith alone. Since then, Sunny Group has been in crisis. Mr. Smith, on the other hand, was unable to recover from that setback and passed away shortly after."

"Yes." Zachary supported his brief. "I don't know why Aunt Candace is coming back now. She wanted to meet Grace and Alice, but Grace refused. Then, she requested to see you and asked me to ask you out. I refused her as well, but I'm afraid that she will come to you."

"I'll meet her," said Heinz as he frowned.

"Wait, you want to meet her? Why?" Zachary, who was taken by surprise, asked.

"I want to meet Madam Lowe to get a clear picture of her exact intentions. If she wants to hurt Alice and Grace, I will not sit back and watch. However, if there is anything more to her sudden appearance, I can acknowledge them as well. Grace has suffered a lot for me. It is right that I do something for her as well." Heinz went on to explain himself.

"Are you sure you can bear this matter?" Zachary asked, rather worried. Heinz also seemed a little worried. "I always felt that it's not so easy for you to deal with this matter. You don't know much about Aunt Candace's character. She actually came back and ordered Grace around after having left them for so many years as if nothing has happened," Zachary explained.

"She ordered Grace around?" Heinz couldn't hide his somber tone. "Then I should take care of it all the more," he said.

"Are you sure?" Probed Zachary after pondering for a moment.

"Please ask Madam Lowe out for me. I would like to see her," Heinz requested. "Make it in an hour and I'll leave the venue up to you."

"Let's make it at the Smith family's home; it only seems fitting. Perhaps the setting might just touch her in a way to soften up to her family," said Zachary.

"Alright, it's up to you," Heinz acknowledged the suggestion and hung up shortly after.

Jensen, who was right next to him, looked at him and asked, "Did you just say that Grace and Alice's mother is back?"

"Yes. Here's a thought, why don't we both go together and meet our future mother-in-law?" Heinz suggested.

Jensen nodded and replied, "As far as I know, Alice doesn't accept this mother of hers at all."

"She probably wants to see me because she's yet to get to know you. Let's make use of this opportunity to get to know each other better," Heinz suggested again.

"Okay." Jensen agreed. "Let's go. I want to meet this great future mother-in-law too."

Heinz looked inside the lock-up. Jodie was now cuffed and locked up in there. A crime of arson called for the perpetrator to be taken into custody as well.

Heinz's gaze became much sharper. He said in a low voice, "I'll meet Jodie first. Keep your eyes on her at all times." His gaze was as sharp as an eagle.

"Roger that."

Two minutes later.

Heinz sat at the table in the visitor room as the door inside opened with a clatter. The heavy wooden door gave off a deep and distant sound as it was opened.

Heinz was still surprised to be hit with this question.

After they registered for marriage, they became less and less intimate with each other.

He did not seem to have any interest in it anymore. In fact, he regretted having registered their marriage too soon.

Therefore, after the registration, he turned a cold shoulder to her.

Perhaps the reason why he was reluctant to hold a grand wedding with Jodie was because he was avoiding her.

As it turned out, Jodie was indeed not his wife. It was just a moment of passion that they were together.

From this point of view, he felt very sorry for her.

That was because he knew deep down that he didn't really treat her well.

However, the reason he began feeling disgusted towards her was because of the fact that she started changing after their marriage was registered. She was very pretentious, getting frustrated for no reason and constantly sulking, which all led up to Heinz distancing himself from her. Moreover, she had not been straightforward.

When he thought about it, he finally understood that any divorce was actually long-premeditated.

Their day- to- day behaviors had decided whether the two of them would be bound together or stray apart.

"Heinz," Jodie roared when he didn't speak and just stared at her. She blamed him, "If you treated me well and did not turn a cold shoulder to me, I would not have sought out Aaron." "No!" Heinz shook his head and argued, "Jodie, you would not have been satisfied even if I treated you well."

"In fact, even if I did so, you would have asked for more."
