True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)

Chapter 52

Grace Smith looked at the car, but Marry Smith was not there.

Simon Brown was the only one here.

Didn't they just say that they would go shopping together? Why was Marry Smith not there?

Seeing that she didn't reply, Simon Brown pursed his thin lips and said, "I'm sorry about what happened

yesterday, I was too upset."

Grace Smith glanced at him and took a step back to keep a safe distance.

Simon Brown felt embarrassed when he saw this. There was a hint of pain shown through his eyes.

Grace Smith looked at him and said, "Mr. Brown, please keep your distance."

Hearing this, Simon Brown immediately frowned and said, "Grace. I said it was my fault yesterday. I

won't do it again. Don't worry."

Grace Smith was not at ease. She thought that Simon Brown might not be the same person she knew

before. She even knew what he was like now, from what she heard in the VIP room of Heinz Jones's

office.

It was impossible for her not to be vigilant.

"Are you done?" Grace Smith replied, "Goodbye."

Simon Brown frowned and saw that she was about to leave. He instantly stepped forward and blocked

her way.

Grace Smith immediately moved away from him and didn't let him touch her.

Simon Brown saw that she was in such a hurry to avoid him and his eyes were filled with sadness. He

explained, "Don't worry. I just want to ask you where you want to go, and I can give you a ride."

"No need for that." Grace Smith shook her head. "I can walk on my own."

"Grace. Even if we can't go back to the way it was when we were a couple. But I'm also your brother-in-

law. We are still relatives." Simon Brown looked into her eyes and whispered, "You don't have to keep

guard against me like this. I promise I won't hurt you again."

"Sorry." Grace Smith shook her head and said coldly, "I can't believe your promise. I don't want to have

anything to do with you. I'm sorry. Please get out of the way."

A look of shock and pain flashed across Simon Brown's eyes. "We can't even be friends?"

"Never," Grace Smith said in a firm and low voice.

Simon Brown didn't seem to be able to accept it. He frowned and looked at Grace Smith with anger in

his eyes. "Grace, when did you and I become like this?"

"Simon Brown." Grace Smith looked at him coldly and said in a calm voice, "In my opinion, we should

keep some distance. I don't want my ex-boyfriend who is also my brother-in-law to be so close to me ."

"We are just friends." Simon Brown argued, "Besides, back then, it was a mistake." "Since you have

made a mistake, you should bear the consequences. In addition, you thought that it is the best choice

to be responsible for my sister, so continue with it. Don't let my sister down as she's deeply in love with

you." After finishing these words, Grace Smith wanted to leave again.

Simon Brown was agitated and grabbed her wrist.

Grace Smith stiffened all over and said in a serious tone, "Simon Brown, don't disgust me. I will look

down on you."

"Grace." Simon Brown's voice was filled with pain. He said word by word, "I really can't stand you being

so estranged from me like this. Five years ago, you disappeared without a trace. Do you know how I

feel?"

"It has nothing to do with me. It’s my sister's business." Grace Smith's felt sarcastic. A man who just

talked about bedroom matters with her sister was now holding her arm and declaring his deep affection

here. It was really ironic.

"Grace..."

Grace Smith interrupted him rudely, "Mr. Brown, in my memory, you are not the kind of man who cares

about old feelings. Why do you have to put on a show here? I won't give you an Academy Award."

Simon Brown was stunned at first, but then he frowned and said, "Grace, you are really eloquent now. I

haven't seen you for a few years and you've changed a lot."

"Let go." Grace Smith shook his hand away. "Get your hands off me."

Simon Brown struggled to get hold of her. He was shocked and couldn't believe that she was so

determined.

"Grace Smith, I just want to give you a ride. Is there a need to do that?"

"As for that." Grace Smith took a few steps away and said coldly to him, "Simon Brown, I hope you will

always remember that the fact I don't flirt with you and stay away from you, is my respect towards us

and an act of kindness from me. If you do anything to me again, don't blame me if you get on my

nerves."

Simon Brown was startled. He narrowed his eyes in shock.

He didn't expect that Grace Smith would be so determined.

Perhaps five years ago, that night when he made a mistake, she was as precise and determined.

However, why was he so upset?

Simon Brown was overwhelmed and didn't know what to do. He could only watch her slender figure

leaving.

At this moment, Heinz Jones was not far behind him. He was squinting and watching from afar. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Lester, who was standing behind him, was completely confused.

What scene was that?

Heinz Jones frowned and stood under the sun. His chiselled face was dark.

"Lester." He suddenly said in a deep voice. "Yes." Lester quickly stepped forward and said, "President,

what can I do for you?"

"Did you see clearly just now?" Heinz Jones asked.

Lester looked at him blankly. "Yes, I did."

"Did Simon Brown or Grace Smith take the initiative for that?" Heinz Jones asked in his deep voice as if

he wanted to confirm who was the one who started the conversation.

Lester took a deep breath and said, "President, it seems that Simon Brown took the initiative to hold

Miss Smith's hand to stop her from leaving."

"Seems?" Heinz Jones raised his eyebrows, obviously displeased. He did not like these kinds of

ambiguous words.

He liked words to be accurate.

"It was Simon Brown who took the initiative." Lester immediately corrected himself.

Heinz Jones sneered and didn't say anything. He just walked in the direction of Simon Brown who was

standing there silently.

Lester quickly caught up with him.

Soon, they arrived behind Simon Brown.

Simon Brown didn’t notice it at all. He still looked at the retreating figure of Grace Smith and didn't

move for a long time.

"Mr. Brown?" Heinz Jones asked.

Simon Brown stopped gazing and turned to look at Heinz Jones. When he saw him, he paused for a

moment. He then returned to normal and said, "Mr. Jones, you're here."

"Yes, Mr. Brown, you have been watching so intently for a while. Is there a beautiful lady?" Heinz Jones

raised his eyebrows and said.

Simon Brown's face froze and he said, "No, there isn't."

"Oh, no ?" Heinz Jones looked at the direction where Grace Smith left and continued with a teasing

voice, "I thought there was a beauty. Mr. Brown, why are you looking so absent-minded? Perhaps, you

have a very high standard. Ordinary women are not worth your attention at all, and she can't be called

a beauty in your view, right?"

"Mr. Jones, you must be fooling around." Simon Brown said with embarrassment and quickly changed

the topic. "Let's go. My wife should be waiting ."

Heinz Jones glanced at him and said, "Since you're so considerate to Mrs. Brown, how could he be

checking out a pretty woman? I must have been mistaken just now. Am I right, Lester?"

Lester was on the verge of breaking down. He could only smile and did not dare to reply.

Simon Brown could tell what Heinz Jones's words mean.

He pondered for a moment and calmly explained, "Oh, I just met an old friend, not some beautiful

woman. Mr. Jones, you must be joking."
