Heinz's guilt grew intense as Grace continued to stare at him.
He had been feeling that Grace seemed to know everything. Was it because he had hid something himself? Was that why he felt so guilty?
Looking at his reaction, Grace wanted to say something but stopped herself. She had a lot of things on her mind and also felt that Heinz seemed to be feeling guilty for some reason.
Now that she had known his secrets, she gained a little more sense of security.
She was no longer feeling so anxious, and she was no longer afraid of losing him.
It was clear that Heinz cared about Little Gary. He had intended to make up with her even before knowing Little Gary's background.
That was crucial.
If Heinz had no feelings for Grace, he wouldn't have to lower himself.
Therefore, after experiencing all those things, Grace felt that everything was not as bad as she thought it would be.
Perhaps, everything was perfect.
In many situations, people tended to imagine the worst possible outcomes.
But at that moment, Grace felt that the positives had outweighed the negatives.
Therefore, she decided to be brave.
After a long silence, Grace looked at Heinz's struggling expression and said, "You're not going to talk?"
He immediately shook his head. "No, it's just that I'm too touched."
He was hesitating whether he should tell Grace everything and be totally honest with her.
The more he struggled mentally, the more he felt he had wronged Grace.
Her kindness had only further emphasized how despicable he was.
Heinz was afraid. He was afraid that Grace would turn around and leave as soon as she knew everything about his past.
He couldn't afford to lose her.
Definitely not!
"You're so easily touched." Grace felt that Heinz was really cute sometimes.
"Grace, you are very kind." Heinz was getting emotional, but he tried to restrain himself. "You are really a very nice woman. Thank you for your understanding."
"Anything else?" Grace asked.
Heinz fixed his intense gaze on her, his eyes full of complex emotions. "I won't let you down for the rest of my life."
"Okay," Grace nodded. "Fine, I believe in you."
He still couldn't muster up the courage to tell her everything. Thus, Grace didn't continue asking.
She felt that when the time came, Heinz would definitely open his heart and tell her everything.
Perhaps, for Heinz, it was not the right time yet.
"Don't be so hard on him," she told herself.
She should trust him completely. Life would be easier.
"Thank you,'¹ Heinz said. Then, he lowered his head and searched for her lips again, kissing her passionately.
"Hey, stop that," Grace pushed him away. "I have to start cooking."
"I've told you that Butler Holland would deliver food to us." Heinz did not want to let go. "I can't have you now, and if you wouldn't let me kiss you, I'll go crazy."
"You're bullying me," Grace said.
"Yeah, that's my intention!" Heinz caressed the area around her ear for a long time before letting go and said in an extremely restrained voice, "Ah! Why are you on your period?"
He was frustrated that he couldn't release his desire.
"You only have yourself to blame. You don't have to do this, but you kept on teasing me," Grace said.
