True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 923

After careful consideration, she got up and followed him to the study room.

As she arrived at the door, she heard Heinz ask the butler, "What on earth is going on?"

The butler explained nervously, "It's all here, Mr. Heinz. Look at these photos. There are so many of them, and they're in every book. The more I cleaned up, the more fell out. There are more than 500 of these photos."

Heinz's eyes were filled with anger and he cursed, "D*mn it. She's haunting me. How did her photos appear in my room?"

"The books from the Hart Villa District are all here. We didn't pay attention to them when we were packing them up," the butler explained further. "We didn't dare to touch anything when it comes to your belongings."

"You should have checked them." Heinz was infuriated. If they had checked them in the first place, perhaps they would have found out. Then, he would have dealt with it so that Grace wouldn't come across them.

The butler also felt helpless. He lowered his head and asked, "What do we do about these photos?

How should we deal with them?"

Heinz's brows furrowed as he bellowed, "How else? Of course, we'll burn them!"

The butler was surprised. "Burn them? Are you sure?"

"What kind of question is that? Do you think I'm in the mood to joke around with you now?" Heinz was worried that Grace would be jealous. And if that happened, he was afraid that it would affect the fetus and her own health.

The butler nodded immediately. "But Mrs. Jones knows has already seen them. Should I inform her beforehand?"

Upon being reminded, Heinz was at a loss and felt incredibly frustrated. He frowned deeper and asked the butler, "Has she seen all of them?"

"No." The butler answered truthfully, "Mrs. Jones has only seen a small part of it. Should I tell her that I didn't find anything else?"

"That is, of course." Heinz immediately ordered, "Tell Grace that there are no more photos, just those few that she found. Clean up all this garbage. Don't let her see them, or else she would feel bad."

"Got it!"

"Wait!" All of a sudden, Grace's voice came from the door.

She stepped into the room and gave Heinz a look.

What a b*stard. She couldn't believe that Heinz wanted to burn the photos and keep her in the dark about them, in fear of making her feel bad. He was a liar.

Heinz's body stiffened at her appearance. He turned around and looked at Grace with worry in his eyes, saying, "Grace, y- you... why are you here?"

"Mr. Jones, why are you stuttering?" Grace fixed her gaze on him and spoke unblinkingly, "I was here to check on how the butler has sorted out the photos when I heard you say that you were going to secretly burn them."

Startled, Heinz felt a little embarrassed. The shame of being caught red-handed rendered him speechless.

Meanwhile, Grace had walked up to the butler and glanced at the thick stack of over 500 photos in his hands. At this rate, it could measure up to several sets of books.

Grace took a closer look at the photos and her gaze turned colder.

The butler was so afraid that his hands were numb. He didn't dare to look at Grace, thus he looked at Heinz instead.

Heinz was frightened too. He looked at Grace worriedly and said in an attempt to please her, "Grace, please listen to me. I really don't know where these photos came from."

"That's also because you allowed Jodie to put them in. I don't believe that she could have done it by herself, she must have received your permission. Besides, she had put so many photos at once. Take a look at what kind of photos they are." Grace glanced at the butler and ordered, "Put all the photos on the desk. I want to look at them one by one."

Hearing this, Heinz immediately panicked. He quickly covered the photos with his hands and hurriedly said, "Don't look. I was wrong; it's all my fault. Don't look at them, okay?"

"I wasn't planning to, but seeing how agitated, flustered, and guilty you look, it has piqued my interest. I want to see them," Grace uttered with a smile. "Move your hands away."

"Grace, listen to me, I'm sorry." Heinz was truly afraid of provoking Grace. "It's my fault, it's all my fault."

"It is indeed your fault." Grace smirked and dragged her words out a little, saying, "So what? I never said it's not your fault. I just want to look at the photos. Are you going to let me look at them?"

Heinz fixed his stare on Grace. There was no warmth in her eyes, and she looked very calm. She only stared back at him, which made him feel extra guilty.

Heinz replied awkwardly. "I'm really embarrassed.

Grace, can you please not speak to me like this? I'm scared."

"You're scared?" Grace smiled gently. "I can't tell."

"Grace, please don't speak to me so mockingly..."

"Then why did you do this? There are so many photos. You wanted to burn and destroy them, and you think that I can pretend nothing has happened and play along with you. Am I right?"

"T-Then, tell me how to deal with it. These are all things of the past, anyway. I know that you're a generous woman. I'll deal with it however you want me to, okay?"
