"Heinz, I want to see you now. I must see you immediately." Jensen Charm's tone and attitude were so aggressive that it was hard to refuse.
"What do you mean?" Heinz Jones felt his heart skip a beat, and he suddenly had a bad feeling about this. "Tell me!"
"Oh, I can't explain it clearly now." Jensen wailed. "I feel that... Ah, don't think about it, it is quite complicated... I must see you. I have to see you to tell you properly what it is."
"What's wrong with you?" Heinz frowned.
"It is about Grace,¹¹ Jensen said in a low voice, "Come, I must talk to you personally."
Heinz suddenly froze. "Okay, I'll come see you."
"Do you want to come over or do you want me to go over?" Jensen asked.
Heinz glanced at Grace Smith. He let go of her, walked back to his desk, and said, "I'll go over."
"I'm at Hart Villa District. Come here quickly. I haven't slept for a whole night, and now it's even harder for me to fall asleep." Jensen's voice seemed to be constricted by a painful struggle. "I'll wait for you."
"Got it."
After hanging up the phone, Heinz glanced at Grace and said coldly, "I'm going out. About the bet, I'll settle it with you when I come back."
Grace was stunned, but a hint of relief flashed in her eyes.
Heinz soon left.
Grace was left alone in the spacious President's office.
In the empty luxurious space, she felt extraordinarily lonely. She hugged herself, pursed her lips, and sat down on her seat. She leaned back and there was a hint of pain in her eyes.
At Hart Villa District.
Soon, Heinz arrived.
He entered the house immediately, after keying in the password.
As soon as he entered, he saw Jensen was lying on a luxurious sofa, sprawled out like the shape of the letter "X". As soon as he heard the door opening, Jensen instantly sat up and saw Heinz coming over.
"Well, I haven't been to your house for such a long time, but yet I still remember the password.” Jensen said, "Hey, I'm afraid that I will become a pig, living here in your magnificent duplex apartment. My salary from being a policeman is really not enough for me to pay the rental here!"
"I'm letting you stay here for free. Who's asking you for money?” Heinz said in a deep voice,as he went to the sofa and sat down opposite Jensen.
"Even if you are asking for money, I can't afford it." Jensen spread out his hands and said, "I am a poor policeman, and I depend on you to survive."
"It doesn't matter if you're poor, but you're poor and yet you think it's cool!" Heinz glanced at Jensen. Raising his eyebrows, Heinz said, "Your eyes are bloodshot. Haven't you slept at all?"
"Yes, I haven't yet, and I can't fall asleep now." Jensen looked at him very hesitantly and said, "Heinz, as soon as you heard that it is about Grace, you came here under 20 minutes. Don't you think you're quite serious about her?"
"No, I'm not," Heinz said with a forced tone.
He didn't want his inner feelings to be known so soon.
"You're not serious about her?" Jensen said, "That's great then. I was worried that you are serious about her, then you might get hurt."
"What do you want to say?" Heinz glanced at Jensen, frowning, "Just say it. Don't beat around the bush with me."
Jensen joked, "It turns out that you like to go straight to the point. Heinz, that's no good. You can't get a girl this way. Girls tend to be reserved, you need to pursue them slowly."
"Don't talk nonsense. Let's get to the point." Heinz was losing his patience.
"The point is," Jensen stroked his hair, then looked at Heinz, and quickly said, "Since you are not serious about Grace, then good. Don't continue with this."
Heinz frowned and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
"Give her to me." Jensen looked into Heinz's eyes, he was serious this time.
