True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2166

Heinz was rendered speechless by his wife.

He felt humiliated being dissed by his wife before the children, not to mention in front of his grandfather.

Perceiving the sulkiness on Heinz's expression, William gave a grin and said, "Well, Heinz, you've never been so attentive to Grace, have you? Especially after you managed to trick her into saying yes."

"C'mon, Grandpa, you can't say that." Heinz gazed at his grandfather immediately. "How can you still try to make mischief here when you're already getting on in years?!"

Grace had already expressed her disapproval toward him, yet his grandfather still added fuel to the fire. It was so infuriating.

"Then you should be more attentive to your wife," William said.

"I have," Heinz replied. "I'm not an artisan, and my way of conveying my love for my wife is not so superficial." "Well, I wouldn't call it profound either." William continued to find fault with everything Heinz said.

With her eyes on the hair comb, Grace let out a sigh again. "Sylvia, put it away."

Sylvia kept it in the box; she was in two minds whether or not to return it to Chigo.

Sebastian, who had been silent all this while, also said, "I'm on Chigo's side too, Sylvia."

Gobsmacked, Sylvia couldn't believe it had only been less than an hour when nearly her entire family had decided to side with Chigo.

Was Kendrix really that unappreciated?

On their journey home, Sylvia asked Sebastian secretly, "Sebastian, what did you mean by what you said to me in Great-grandpa's house earlier? You don't support Kendrix and me anymore?"

"I did at first." Sebastian replied, "But, his words during that dinner on the mountain left a bad impression."

"Even so, you can't change sides just like that. I'm not an animal who'd be with just about any of my kind."

"Chigo's a family friend, no?" Sebastian remarked, "Also, didn't you say you wanted to marry Chigo after you grew up when you were a child?"

"How can you take the words during my childhood seriously?" Sylvia argued.

"Chigo has." Sebastian reminded her, "And he's so attentive of you. That alone has won me over."

Sylvia furrowed her brows at that. In the end, she didn't return the hair comb to Chigo.

Her mother advised her to mull over it even if she intended to return the gift.

At last, Sylvia brought the hair comb back with her.

In the evening, she stared at the hair comb motionlessly for a long time in her room.

She'd be lying if she said she wasn't touched.

No guy had ever been this attentive to her before.

However, Kendrix would came to her mind uncontrollably.

To her, he was visible but unattainable.

She was tempted to look for him, but at the same time, it had knocked her sideways.

Probably, those unobtainable would be the most precious.

Hence, she felt that her mind was still on Kendrix, and it had never changed. Maybe she had truly been attracted by Chigo when she was a child, but it more like a children's friendship rather than a romantic relationship between a man and a woman.

And now, she had grown up and was no longer a child.

She thought she might not be mature enough, and things might change in the future, but she was sure, at the very least, her heart wasn't on Chigo at the moment.

However, the hair comb had to be returned sooner or later.

After making up her mind, she put the hair comb away.

Sylvia shut herself in her room the entire night. Her already quiet mind was thrown into turmoil the next second.
