True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1881

"Really?" Sylvia asked in disbelief.

"Of course." Grace laughed and continued, "I wasn't angry with you. I'm just strict with you because I'm worried that you'll go overboard and hurt yourself. I hope that you can one day understand that you're an outstanding individual. You don't need your dad or your father to succeed in your future career. That's why I've been so strict. Perhaps I made some mistakes educating you, but I always mean well. Are you able to understand that?"

"I know. Mr. Trevino explained it all to me." Sylvia continued, "Mommy, I know you have good intentions. I know you're doing this for my own good. I lost my temper today, that was my fault. Mommy, can you forgive me for that?"

Grace was surprised once more. Sylvia had mentioned Mr. Trevino again. It seemed that the man was a much more prominent influence than the head teacher.

Mr. Trevino's charm was sky high. It only took him a few days to capture his daughter's heart. Grace thought that he must be really amazing to have earned so much respect from Sylvia.

"Silly girl, I've told you that I wasn't angry with you." Grace laughed again.

"But Dad said you were crying."

"Don't listen to your dad. He was spouting nonsense," Grace said, "I didn't cry."

Sylvia asked with uncertainty coloring her tone, "Really?"

"Of course." Grace assured her daughter. "I'm fine. Don't worry. I'm really not angry."

"That's a relief, then." Sylvia smiled. "Mommy, I promise to not upset you in the future."

Grace let out a warm, pleased smile at that. "Sylvia, if you like living in the school dorms, you can feel free to live there. You can come home if you don't like it there. I'm going to lift the restrictions I set for you."

"Mommy, will you still be angry at me if I listen in on my brothers' conversations?" Sylvia asked with a chuckle.

After a short pause, Grace replied, "I don't think you'll be doing that anymore. It's not like they are talking about anything interesting these days."

"You're right. I'm not going to eavesdrop on them anymore," Sylvia said with a soft chuckle. "Mommy, I'll never eavesdrop on my brothers again." "That's good. Alright, let's end our conversation here. Didn't you say something about buying books with Mr. Trevino? You should focus on that." Grace was worried that she would waste Sylvia's time with the call.

"Mommy, you're so great." Sylvia smiled and continued, "Then I'll hang up first. Don't worry. I'll go straight back to school after I finish buying the books with Mr. Trevino."

"I'm not worried. Mr. Trevino is a criminal investigator. I know that he is very reliable." Grace smiled.

"Yes, Mr. Trevino is great." Feng laughed. "Goodbye, Mommy."

The phone call ended after that.

When she looked up, she saw that Heinz was staring at her with eyes full of sadness. He looked upset.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Grace frowned.

"Honey, you're so good at reflecting. After what you said, Sylvia's tone seemed to soften," Heinz said.

Grace didn't know how to react. "Why? Are you jealous?"

Heinz nodded. "Yes, I am. I'm really jealous."

She had no idea how to handle this man. How could he be jealous of his own wife?

She looked at Heinz and said, "She's fine. Mr. Trevino must have told her to call me. Otherwise, based on my knowledge of Sylvia's personality, she would not have called me so quickly. She would probably wait till the end of the day."

Hearing this, Heinz nodded his head. "Yes, that girl is as stubborn as you."

She was stunned and thought to herself, 'This guy is too much. Why did he suddenly drag me into this conversation?'

She took a deep breath, glared at Heinz, then walked out.

"Where are you going?" Heinz asked from behind.

"I'm going for a walk in the garden," Grace said.

She felt the weight from before lift off her shoulders. She was not so worried anymore. As such, she felt like taking a walk outside to ease her mind. She wanted to bring the two babies in her womb out for a stroll with her.

"I'll come with you," Heinz said hurriedly. "Wait for me. I'm going to change. I don't want to wear a suit out, it's getting a bit uncomfortable."

Grace glanced at him and said, "You should have it on. You look more stylish like that."

Heinz leered at his wife and said, "I think I look better without it."

"You're shameless," Grace said. Then, she opened the door and went downstairs.
