True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 220

Alice Smith was surprised.

She was touched by his words.

She was looking at Jensen Charm with her big round eyes. Her eyes were so beautiful.

They were looking into each other's eyes.

Alice realized that she was consumed in her own thoughts.

She came back to her senses. She gave a wry smile and said, "My sister is always like this. She doesn't tell me anything. She'll always shoulder the burden. While I am the one who always creates trouble."

Seeing that she was blaming herself, Jensen comforted her softly, "This is not your fault. Please don't worry. I have sent someone to investigate it. We will look at the CCTV footage as well. We'll return the money to you soon."

"Really? And you think you'll be able to return the money to me?" Alice looked at him doubtfully and asked.

"I'll definitely refuse to pay for it. But, Heinz insisted on paying for it." Jensen said.

"Do you mean that Heinz, that coward, pretended to be generous and paid for us?" Alice asked.

Jensen was shocked. Then, he nodded his head and said, "Yea, he's a kind person, but a coward. He's afraid that the condition of the patient will get worse if the treatment is delayed."

"But, what does this have to do with me? Why is he poking his nose into other people's business?" Alice said.

"He's just trying to be kind to that person. It's important to let the person get treated." Jensen said.

"But, both of the guys were so annoying. They were the ones blocking my way." Alice argued. All of a sudden, she stopped arguing and said, "Ah, forget it. There will not be so much ruffian if police can really control them."

She was very dissatisfied because the police would not punish the ruffians heavily.

Jensen understood what she was thinking. He said, "I know it's really not reasonable for them to receive such light punishments. But, the police can only arrest the people. It's the duty of the prosecutors and judges to decide on the punishments."

"Well, this means that police don't play an important role at all," Alice said while standing up. Then, she continued, "I know it's not your fault. There are some defects in the system. Also, the system is catered for so many people. They are afraid that someone might use this system to seek vengeance, just like what you've said."

"It's good that you have thought this through. You're really a reasonable girl!" Jensen stood up and looked into her eyes.

Alice was flustered when Jensen was looking at her so lovingly.

Alice said, "Thank you, Officer Charm. Please don't tell my sister that I know how much the medical expenses were."

Jensen nodded his head and said, "Okay. Let me give you a ride. Where are you going?"

Alice shook her head and rejected him politely, "It's okay. I'll take the bus. It's more convenient."

"Please just let me give you a ride," Jensen said again.

"You really don't have to do that. It's out of your way anyways." Alice said seriously. Then, she turned around and left.

She didn't give Jensen any chance to speak at all.

Jensen didn't go after her. He was afraid that he might have scared her.

She was really petite.

He was staring at her as if he was staring at prey.

He realized that he had found his prey. He was just waiting for the right time.

Sooner or later, he wanted to have her by his side. He wanted to be responsible for her.

This was the kind of responsibility that a man should have.

Then, he would not feel guilty.

He wanted to live up to his reputation as well.

Heinz Jones was waiting for Grace Smith to get off work.

It was past five o'clock.

Grace came out of her company's newspaper office and saw a familiar car.

'Has he been waiting for me here all afternoon? Or did he leave and comes back again?' She thought.

Heinz got out of the car and walked towards her when she was consumed in her thoughts.

Grace frowned. Heinz had a really domineering demeanor.

She sighed, "Why did you come back?"

Heinz felt disappointed when Grace was not happy to see him here.
