True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 73

Heinz Jones frowned with displeasure. "I'm not in the mood for jokes." Heinz Jones said.

"Ha, so you would prefer to bottle up your frustration. Anyway, it's your fault. Why are you so obstinate in this matter?" Jensen Charm laughed and said. "Flattery works better on women." Jensen Charm added.

Heinz Jones curled his lips and looked towards the door, but there were no signs of movement.

Grace Smith rushed down and went straight through the door, only to see that the door was surrounded by two well built henchmen, and that there were another two inside. One was gripping Lilian Ross tightly.

She had on only a sheer nightdress, nothing else underneath. It was clear what had transpired in such a situation. Such a pitiful state of affairs.

Grace Smith sighed in her heart. It broke her heart to see her tortured as such. It was a shame when a woman does not value her own worth, but would rather just be the mistress of another woman's husband.

As she peered in the room, she spotted Lorenzo Chen on the ground only having underpants on. He was silent and fearful.

Four henchmen, lead by a woman, confronted this repulsive duo.

Mrs. Chen, leading this inquisition, had a round figure and was dressed in a silk gown. She was elegant yet gave off a slightly volatile air, and the shimmering pearl necklace she was wearing added to this impression even more.

Grace Smith did felt that Mrs. Chen would tolerate no nonsense despite her elegant demeanor.

One could see that Lilian Ross had been slapped till her face was swollen, blood trickling down the corner of her mouth.

The two henchmen were taking turns to repeatedly strike her, without intention of stopping.

Grace Smith shouted in agitation, "Stop hitting her!"

The sudden interruption caused all eyes to fall on her. Mrs. Chen, at the forefront, frowned. She felt provoked and was incensed.

Grace Smith could empathize with Mrs. Chen's plight. This cruel expression stemmed from fury and a need for retribution.

She wasn't bad looking, with her round eyes, well proportioned nose and lips. She had aged slightly and had a little more weight on her, but apart from that she was still captivating indeed.

The fact that Lorenzo Chen was cheating on her seemed inexplicable. He probably was just bored, going after someone new just for the sake of variety. Such a terrible person.

"Who are you?" Mrs. Chen asked, she was icy in tone. "This is a private matter, what right do you have to intervene?" Mrs. Chen added.

Grace Smith was impressed with Mrs. Chen's self control in this situation. Even after discovering this infuriating situation she still could remain calm.

In contrast, looking at Lilian Ross, who had a meek and subservient expression, made her feel nauseous.

"I am Lilian Ross's colleague." Grace Smith explained, "I'm shocked to see this." Grace Smith added.

Mrs. Chen glared at Grace Smith, the disdain clear in her eyes. "Oh really? You're her colleague? Oh wow, don't tell me that you just happened to be passing by at this time." Mrs. Chen said.

Grace Smith realized that Mrs. Chen was sharp and shrewd.

She had to be on guard with her words and actions, or she might find herself getting even more entangled in this situation and getting both of them into more trouble.

"Nice to meet you.” Grace Smith nodded and said. "Mrs. Chen, is that right?" Grace Smith asked.

"Yes, I am Lorenzo Chen's wife." Mrs. Chen spoke calmly. "Since you are here, you probably already know what is happening." Mrs. Chen continued.

At this moment Lorenzo Chen, who had been squatting on the ground, became animated.

"Honey, this woman is a liar. She is awful. She doesn't have good intentions. She tried propositioning me, but I ignored her." Lorenzo Chen spoke to Mrs. Chen while gesturing towards Grace Smith. "She is definitely here as part of a plot to take me down." Lorenzo Chen added.

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen narrowed her eyes, and her expression turned lethal.
