True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 958

Grace was taken aback. "Wouldn't this mean that I did not keep my word? I'd be going back on what I said."

She was only worried about Alice's safety when she made her promise. As long as Alice was safe and sound, she was willing to compromise for everything else.

Now that Jensen said this, Grace knew that he was being rational. He was a policeman and it was only right for him to do so.

This was his duty.

However, she had promised Xavier to persuade them not to pursue this matter. What should she do now?

Jensen looked at her and said, "Grace, I understand what you mean. At that time, you had no choice but to agree to his request. If you didn't, Alice wouldn't be safe. It's just a matter of time." "But if you arrest him, wouldn't it contradict our future plans?" Grace said, "I know that he has taken extreme measures to stand up for Marry, but he did not harm Alice. That was why I felt that we could talk things out."

"No." Jensen was very persistent. "Grace, if we let them go this time, they might think that we are afraid of them. What if they strike again?"

For a moment, Grace did not know what to do.

She hesitated as well before replying, "But, I... I promised him. You see, he also kept his promise. He released Alice and dropped her off at our gate. Otherwise, he might have really kidnapped her and used her to threaten us. If so, he wouldn't send her back so soon."

"Grace." Heinz spoke, "Listen to me. I agree that Jensen is being very reasonable. We can't be too tolerant. If we treat this kind of behavior too leniently, they will only take advantage of us in the future."

"Heinz, Alice is my sister. I care more about her safety than anyone else. I know Jensen is just doing his job and I fully understand that, but I have promised Xavier. I hope that you will not arrest him before anything bad happens to either one of us." Grace was a little anxious as she requested, "You'd better tell your men to stop now."

As soon as Jensen was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang.

He answered the phone.

"Boss, we've arrested Xavier."

Jensen immediately said, "Okay, I'll come over now. I want to interrogate him myself."

"Yes sir!"

Grace felt her heart skip a beat. "They caught him?"

"Yes." Jensen decided not to conceal the truth.

After thinking for a while, Grace looked at Alice and asked, "Alice, what do you think?"

Alice hesitated for a moment, then pursed her lips and responded, "I think Jensen is right."

This time, she was on Jensen's side. She told Grace, "In fact, even if we let him go, Marry might still cause trouble for us as she will be released soon. It seems that they are well-prepared, and we have no idea what they have up their sleeves."

Grace did not expect Alice to agree. She glanced at Heinz suspiciously, and then at both Jensen and Alice. She couldn't help but wonder if she was worrying over nothing.

However, she still felt that she should keep her promise.

"I'll be off now." Jensen said to Alice, "Stay here and get some rest. Do not go anywhere for the time being."

"Okay." Alice nodded and ushered, "You should go."

Then, Jensen left.

Grace and Heinz also decided to let Alice rest before they went back to their room.

The moment they returned to the room, Grace asked Heinz, "Heinz, do you think that I was wrong for wanting to keep my promise?"

"No." Heinz shook his head. "You were right. You made a promise and you should follow through."

"I know what you mean. Jensen is also right. It's his duty." Grace reasoned, "However, I am afraid that Xavier would retaliate because I promised him on your behalf that we would not pursue this matter. In the end, I broke my promise."
