He carried Grace Smith up and threw her on the bed. She looked at him standing next to her, his figure looming above her in condescension. She felt every ounce of her dignity slipping away.
She felt bitter and wronged.
Heinz placed her on the bed. Seeing her struggling against his touch, he frowned and thought, "Is she that against it?"
He straightened his body, and his expression turned shallow.
He did not speak and appeared to be deep in thought.
Grace didn't say anything, but there was a hint of disdain in her eyes as she looked at him. "What is he trying to do? It doesn't matter how special he is, he's the same as every other man."
He glanced at her, "Have a good rest."
Grace was stunned.
Heinz didn't explain further - his tense expression cloaking his handsome features. He picked up his coat and turned to leave.
The door opened.
His silhouette slowly disappeared.
Grace was stunned, "Did he leave just like that?" she thought.
He seemed to be very upset, his vibes warning
others not to come close.
Grace frowned, "Hum, it's better if he left. I need to have a good rest anyway."
At the other side of the door, Heinz stood with a gloomy face.
He heard Grace's words.
She really wanted him to leave.
"Am I really not welcomed?"
He paused for a moment, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
"This woman is really one of a kind. She is the only woman in this world who would treat me as such."
Heinz looked at his watch and it was eleven o'clock. He turned around and went downstairs.
Just as he passed by the nurse station...
Every nurse at the station noticed him. They lowered their heads and tried to peek at him, as if they were just talking about him
Heinz frowned his eyebrows and quickly walked past the nurse's station.
"Mr. Jones!" Nurse Remi came out of the nurse station.
When he heard the voice, Heinz stopped and looked up at her. His expression was faint and he did not say anything.
Seeing that he was so indifferent, Remi Walter pursed her lips and felt a little embarrassed. "Mr. Jones, what Miss Grace said just now..."
She was too embarrassed to continue, she had hoped Heinz understood what she tried to say.
Heinz raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "It's true."
Remi was stunned and widened her eyes. "Mr. Jones, that lady-"
Heinz looked at her and said, "You can go and find her if you want to."
"Ah?" Remi shook her head. "No, no, Mr. Jones, you misunderstood. I'm not that kind of woman."
"Does it make any difference?" Heinz asked nonchalantly. He looked at Remi and said in a deep voice, "What does it have to do with me?"
She was stunned and widened her eyes, shocked.
He turned and left without saying another word.
Remi looked on as he ignored her and coldly moved away from her. She felt sorrow creeping in her heart as his tall silhouette slowly disappeared into the wall.
A man like that would not care about a nameless woman like her.
Grace slept for two hours. It was a good nap, only to be awakened by the sound of her stomach rumbling.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that man sitting in front of her.
She was startled. She rubbed her eyes and looked at Heinz's cold face.
"Why... Why are you back?" She said in dismay, "You'd better leave now."
This woman was really pushing him to the edge.
Could she not see just how fortunate she was?
