True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 311

Heinz looked at Hermione, and there was a trace of guilt in his eyes. However, due to his ego, he held himself expressionless and said in a low voice, "Editor Lowe, haven't you got off work yet?"

He didn't answer her question.

Hermione's lips twitched and she said, "Mr. Jones, what do you take our newspaper office for? How can you bully someone like that?"

Seeing that she was not willing to let him off the hook, Heinz retorted, "The person involved didn't feel bullied. Why would you as an outsider be so nosy?"

Hermione's eyes widened.

Grace, who was lying her head on her desk, stood up quickly, pointed at the door and screamed, "Get out, Heinz!"

For a moment, Heinz was stunned. He then smiled and walked over, saying, "Alright, stop making a fuss. I'll send you home."

His attitude hadn't changed, and this greatly disappointed Grace.

She opened her eyes wide and bit down the corner of her lower lip hard. Her face was pale and full of despair. In front of Hermione, she said bluntly, "Heinz, do you think that after you raped me, I wouldn't say anything? That I would let you off easily?"

Heinz stood in front of her desk and looked down at the shorter woman. He didn't say anything and just squinted at Grace.

Grace was unfazed by his gaze and remained determined.

"Editor Lowe, can you leave us for a while?" Heinz said in a deep voice.

Hermione subconsciously looked at Grace, then at Heinz. She opened her mouth and muttered, "Mr. Jones, what you did was disrespectful and a disgrace to women. I'm sorry, but I can't put Grace in danger."

Heinz turned his head and gave her a piercing look, "I want to say a few words to Grace, but I'm afraid that she will be embarrassed if you are present."

Upon hearing this, Grace was stunned. She was sure that Heinz had nothing good to say.

She gritted her teeth as anger filled her eyes, "I don't want to listen to anything you have to say. Editor, do you need any changes to the draft? If not, I'll be heading home."

"No, I don't need any changes." Editor Lowe said, "I've just finished editing it for you, only some minor details."

"Alright then, I'll be going back now." Grace picked up her bag and was ready to go out.

"I'll send you," Hermione took the opportunity to say.

"Okay," Grace did not refuse.

"Lester!" Heinz suddenly shouted.

"Coming! Coming!" Lester said as he hurried in from the outside, followed by Alex. It seemed like he had just arrived.

When the two of them came in, they looked at Heinz and said respectfully, "President, is there anything we can do for you?"

"Send Editor Lowe back." Heinz ordered in a clipped tone, "Send her to her house safely and come back here."

"Yes," Lester and Alex nodded immediately.

Hermione was shocked and said, "Mr. Jones, you can't get anywhere from being this hasty."

"I can't wait any longer," Heinz replied. He then turned to the two men and uttered coldly, "Lester, Alex, go."

"Yes, President." Lester and Alex stepped forward. One on each side, they held Hermione and brought her out.

Grace trembled with anger. This man was shamelessly breaking the law. The more she tried to reason with him, the more unreasonable he became.

Grace was desperate. She sat on the chair and purposely avoided looking at Heinz. She lowered her eyes nonchalantly, clenched her fists on her sides, and sunk her nails into her hands.

Heinz was still standing there, looking at Grace.

Grace and Heinz were the only two people left in the huge newspaper office.

The atmosphere crackled with tension.
