True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 356

Lester held the mobile phone and looked at the kitchen again. He saw that Heinz was peeling the shallots with a serious look on his face and his head lowered.

Lester then took a video of the scene.

"What should we do?" He asked the butler and Alex, "What should we do now?"

"Won't Miss Smith call to persuade him?" Alex asked him.

"No, she won't," Lester said. "Our president must have offended Miss Smith, so she doesn't care about him anymore."

"Don't worry about it then. Let's just wait," the butler said. "Well take turns to wait for him. Well switch people after each hour."

They were happy with that decision.

With that, the three of them waited in turns for Heinz to finish.

In the end, Heinz stayed in the kitchen until it was two hours past midnight.

The three of them were shocked by his perseverance.

When Heinz came out of the kitchen and saw the three of them at the door, he frowned and asked, "Why haven't you gone to bed?"

"President, are you tired?" The butler asked as he looked at Heinz's red eyes, which were a little swollen. Obviously, it was caused by the shallots.

"I'm fine," Heinz said. Although Heinz looked a little embarrassed, he seemed to be in a good mood. "Well, go and cook the shrimps. I'm hungry. Let's make it our supper. I'll go take a bath first, tell me when it's done."

With that, he left. His back seemed to be straight and he looked very tired.

As soon as the butler entered the kitchen, he saw that all the shallots had been peeled, and the rubbish had been put into the garbage bag. The shallots were neatly placed and the kitchen looked immaculate.

In the sink, there was a big basin of washed shrimps.

The butler sighed and said, "Sure enough, he's an outstanding man in both his work and household chores. It's incredible."

He quickly sorted the ingredients and went to steam the shrimps.

Upstairs, Heinz turned on the tap, filled the bathtub and planned to take a bath.

He was so exhausted. His hands were white and wrinkled because they were soaked in water for too long.

His hands stank. It turned out that it was so hard to do house chores.

Heinz gazed at his hands and lathered them with scented soap repeatedly. However, he could still detect the fishy smell and the stench of shallots. The most annoying thing was that his eyes were red as if he had cried.

By the time he had finished taking a bath, it was almost three o'clock.

Lester, Alex, and the butler immediately brought the shrimps to him when they saw him coming down from the stairs.

A large pot of steamed shrimps was served on the table, and the butler had also made a bowl of soup.

"Let's eat," Heinz said and began to eat.

This time, he didn't say anything else but ate a lot. After eating, he wiped his mouth and said to the butler, "Go to sleep now. You can wash the dishes tomorrow."

"Yes," the butler obliged.

All of them were ready to go to bed.

Heinz changed his clothes and went downstairs.

Lester looked at him and couldn't help asking, "President, where are you going?"

"I'm going to find Grace," Heinz glanced at him. "By the way, did Alice return to their house?"

"No," Lester replied. "We've stationed our men downstairs. They reported that Miss Alice never went back."

"Is she safe?" Heinz asked.

"She went back to Hart Villa District with Officer Charm," Lester reported.

Heinz then said, "That's good. Let's go. Send me to Grace's place."

"Now?" Lester asked hesitantly.

"Of course," Heinz simply nodded.

"It's quite late, won't your visit bother Miss Smith?" Lester asked again.

"Since I can't sleep, I think she won't be sleeping either," Heinz said confidently. "I'll accompany her."

Lester was extremely baffled.
