True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 443

Grace could hear the complaints coming from Aunt White, which made it seem like a failed blind date.

She was very surprised.

Although Laney had an unhappy expression on her face, she still did not say anything.

Professor Brooks was not as angry as Aunt White.

Chuck was also shocked.

Aunt White didn't seem to be satisfied. She looked at Grace with doubts in her eyes.

"Grace, since you already have children, why are you still being so close to men?" Aunt White said.

Those words were like a knife to Grace's heart; she felt insulted.

"Julia," Laney spoke again, "Don't talk like that."

Aunt White reached out and patted Laney's hand. "Laney, it's not that we're looking for trouble. It's Miss Smith who has always been treating Tyler like a fool. I think she's used to taking advantage of a man just to get what she wants."

Grace's eyes widened. She was shocked to hear what they were saying about her.

What did Aunt White mean by Grace taking advantage of her relationship with a man?

She never thought about it that way.

"And you, Chuck, you also heard it, didn't you?" Aunt White looked at Chuck and said, "Be careful or you will get used by her too."

"Auntie White," Grace opened her mouth and said, "I don't know where you got that idea from. I don't even know why you would say that."

"Did I just blurt out what was on your mind?" Aunt White said coldly.

"Aunt White, you're mistaken," Chuck also explained, "I'm Grace's colleague. We're here for an interview."

"Ha," Aunt White snorted and said, "She's just using her relationship with men in every possible way."

"Julia," Laney raised her voice, "Stop talking."

Julia noticed Laney's anger. She opened her mouth but did not say anything.

However, there was still a hint of anger and hatred in her eyes when she looked at Grace.

"Professor Brooks," Grace stood up, looked at them and said, "May I ask what I did to cause this misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding?" Julia couldn't help but shout again, "Aren't you in a relationship with Tyler?"

Grace frowned and said again, "Aunt White, who said that I'm in a relationship with Tyler?"

"If both of you are not in a relationship, why would he do so much to help you?" Julia rebutted, "If you don't have such a close relationship with him, why would he help you?"

Grace was speechless.

She stared at Aunt White, who seemed to be indignant, and said, "Aunt White, I don't know what you mean. I don't even know what your relationship is with Tyler."

"Tyler and I are just friends. I'm very surprised that you think I'm taking advantage of him. Does that mean that your friendship with Professor Brooks is not sincere? Are you just taking advantage of her?" Grace continued.

"You," Aunt White looked angry. "What a glib tongue."

"I do speak well," Grace said, "Both you and Professor Brooks are elders, and also the elders that Tyler introduced me to, so I respect both of you very much."

"However, there must be some misunderstanding that made Aunt White misunderstand my relationship with Tyler."

"Let me repeat myself."

"Tyler and I are just friends."

"I'm sorry but I don't think I can continue today's meal," Grace said.

Laney was startled. As she looked at Grace, there was a glimmer of light in her eyes.
