Chapter 178
Heinz Jones frowned. For a moment, his whole chest was filled with anger.
This woman had really pissed him off.
He grabbed Grace Smith's hand by her wrist and pulled her over suddenly.
At this moment, Grace was breaking down emotionally and her emotions exploded into tears the
moment he grabbed her wrist, and her tears slowly fell on his big hands.
Heinz was stunned by the warm sensation on his hand. His whole body jerked and he looked at
Grace's tearful eyes in astonishment.
"Ha!" He chuckled, and his voice was full of sarcasm and anger.
Grace's heart was even more broken. "I know you don't believe me and it's useless for me to explain. If
you believe me, I wouldn't need to waste so much energy to explain like this. If you don't believe me,
it's meaningless even if I explain to you over and over again."
"Then what are you crying for?"
Grace opened her eyes wide in shock with tears stuck in her eyes.
"Why do you look so aggrieved? Was it my fault?" Heinz asked mercilessly.
For a moment, Grace couldn't say anything.
Tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably.
Heinz's pupils tightened and he narrowed his eyes. Looking at Grace's tears, he wanted to lift his hand
to wipe the tears for her, but his pride stopped him.
"Grace, you're really good at acting." He said in a cold voice, his words as sharp as blades, "You can Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
easily win the best actress award in the Oscars."
"Are you still suspecting me? After all that effort that I have put in?" Grace felt unbelievable.
Her heart ached as well.
She felt very wronged at this moment.
Looking at Heinz, she wiped her tears with her hands and smiled gently, which relieved her a lot
instead.
"Heinz, I've explained everything. I said it was not what it seemed to be. Simon was passing my
grandmother's posthumous letter to me. The flower field belongs to my grandmother, and it has nothing
to do with him.
You misunderstood me and I thought that you would understand eventually, but you still do not seem to
believe me.
I'm trying hard to make you understand. I'm trying to make you understand that I'm not that kind of
person. But even after all these explanations, you mocked me and thought that I was acting. I really
don't know what to say anymore.
It's up to you. I don't want to explain anymore. The truth will speak for itself.
I have something to do in newspaper office later, so I have to go first."
After she said that, she withdrew her hand from his grip and walked out.
Heinz watched her retreating back as she left while clenching his fists hard.
Grace left quickly but still felt distressed after she was outside in the streets.
When Jensen Charm entered through the door, he saw that Heinz was sitting alone and he did not look
well. He looked around and asked, "Hey, where's Grace?"
Heinz didn't say anything. He sat down, pulled off his tie forcefully, and threw it on the table.
Jensen was shocked to see him like this. He widened his eyes and asked, "Did you quarrel with each
other? You haven't been angry for a long time. What's wrong with you recently? Why are you so bad-
tempered?"
Heinz remained silent. He sat on the chair and his face looked even uglier.
"Heinz, Grace and I have confirmed that nothing happened between us. She said that she has
evidence." Jensen continued, "I think, judging from my years of experience as a policeman, she was
not lying."
Heinz threw a sharp glance at him.
"It's true." Jensen said seriously, "If you're irritated because of this, I want to explain. I'm really relieved
after knowing that Grace and I were clear. I don't want to lose you, my friend. Grace doesn't seem bad.
Settle down with her if you think so too."
Heinz remained silent.
Jensen continued, "When you said that you don't have a girlfriend just now, I saw Grace's expression
changed. Was it because of this that you both started quarreling?"
"It's none of your business." Heinz said, "Let's go have lunch now."
Jensen was stunned for a moment and he questioned, "Is Grace still going with us?"
"No," Heinz said coldly, and his tone was so cold that it would freeze people's hearts.
Jensen exclaimed childishly, "Oh my God, you're so intimidating. Your voice almost scared me out of
my wits."
Heinz ignored him and strode out.
"Your tie." Jensen grabbed the tie on the table and chased after him. "Heinz, women should be coaxed
gently. You shouldn't be so prideful, or else even the best woman will be scared away by you."
"Shut up."
"As your best friend and brother, I kindly remind you," Jensen thought, "It will be better to eat in the
canteen than to eat with a person who looks so pissed off all the time."
Heinz replied, "No one will think that you're mute if you don't speak so much."
Jensen rolled his eyes.
After Jensen was out for some time, he found a chance to make a call to Grace.
At this time, Grace was waiting for a bus 300 meters away from the police station.
She picked up the phone when it rang.
"Hello?"
"Grace, where are you?" Jensen asked curiously.
"Officer Charm, what's the matter?" Grace asked in reply.
"We have agreed that we would eat together. You're not giving me face if you just leave like this. I'll pick
you up. Don't leave so soon."
"I have something else to deal with in newspaper office," Grace gave an excuse.
"Don't lie to me. I'm tired of listening to ingenuine words every day." Jensen said, "You must have been
wronged. I don't even need to ask to know that it was because of Heinz's bad temper."
Grace was embarrassed. "Officer Charm, I don't want to talk about this."
"Listen to me. You don't need to care about Heinz and just come to lunch. You are my friend. Come
and make him even angrier so that you won't be so upset," Jensen said.
Grace was stunned and hesitated for a while, while thinking of what he had said.
"Woman, don't hesitate anymore. Just come over and don't be so melodramatic," Jensen said again.
Grace thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back."
She thought, "Since I was wrong in the first place, I should take the initiative again. I should make the
effort so that I don't regret it." "Good! I'll pick you up," Jensen said.
"No need." Grace said straightforwardly, 'TH go back now. It's only a few hundred meters away."
"Alright, I'll wait for you," Jensen hung up the phone.
When he came out of the corner, Heinz was ready to cross the road.
He did not chase after him but waited at the entrance of the police station.
After crossing the road, Heinz looked back at him and frowned.
Jensen waved his hand, indicating that he and the others should go first.
Without waiting for him, Heinz left with his colleagues.
After a while, Grace came back and saw Jensen standing there alone when she arrived at the police
station.
"Good job, Grace." Jensen gave her a thumbs-up.
Grace said, "Let's go."
"Lets go."
They went to the hotel opposite to have lunch together.
When they got there, the door of the spacious private room was already filled, there were seven or
eight people inside who had already lit their cigarettes, and they were all smoking.
They were all men, and none of them were women.
When Jensen and Grace entered through the door, several policemen who didn't know the inside story
were very surprised to see them. Some of them joked, "Hey, boss, is this beautiful woman our sister-in-
law?"
