True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 371

Although Grace did not know what was going on with Heinz, she did not want to be dragged by him in such a way. Her bumpy stomach was very painful and unwell.

Heinz's body stiffened as he looked at Grace.

At first, he was a little surprised. But when he saw the cold sweat that coated Grace's forehead and the tiny dew- like beads on her delicate nose, he was shocked and instantly came to a realization.

Heinz's eyes reflected his apologetic feeling immediately. He walked up to Grace until he was standing close to her, then he pulled her into his embrace and said softly, "I'm sorry, I was too distracted earlier."

Grace struggled slightly in his embrace.

But when he exerted his strength, Grace stopped struggling.

Heinz held her in his arms with his back facing the others in the elevator. Then, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Does your stomach hurt?"

"Yes." She nodded and said, "It hurts a little."

He felt even more apologetic in his heart. He tightened his grip on her waist and said, "Lean on me."

She genuinely felt unwell, so she allowed him to pull her into his embrace and leaned on him.

The elevator kept descending. People came in and

left as they pleased.

After remaining in that position for about three minutes, they finally arrived downstairs.

Everyone went out like a swarm of bees, but Heinz was not in a hurry.

They were the only ones left, and more and more people were waiting to get on the elevator.

Heinz quickly bent down and carried her in his arms.

"I can walk by myself," Grace called out again.

"Let me carry you," Heinz replied in a deep voice.

Grace clutched Heinz's clothes tightly with her tiny hands and buried her face in his neck.

Heinz carried her and walked to the parking lot. His face was still very grave. When he had just taken a few steps, he heard a voice all of a sudden.

"Heinz?" the voice called.

Grace immediately felt Heinz's body become stiff and tense up.

She thought that the person might be someone he was familiar with.

She looked up subconsciously and saw a greyhaired lady standing not too far away from them. Judging from her appearance, she must have maintained herself well. However, her gray hair made her look tired, pale, and old.

The lady looked at Heinz with shock and disbelief in her eyes.

Grace struggled immediately to get down from Heinz's arms.

Heinz also let her down in an instant.

However, that lady shifted her gaze from Heinz to Grace. She looked at Grace with her eyes full of shock, surprise, and panic. Later, those were slowly replaced by disappointment and doubts.

Grace was also startled to see all these emotions in the eyes of a stranger.

"Heinz." The lady said in a painful voice, "Have you found yourself a girlfriend?"

Heinz was astonished but his face was solemn. Then, he took out the car key from his pocket and handed it over to Grace. He said, "Grace, please get in the car and wait for me."

Grace was dumbfounded. She felt his action of asking her to leave was a little strange.

Why wouldn't he introduce her to the lady?

Nevertheless, Grace still took the key and nodded slightly to the lady out of courtesy. After that, she left in a hurry.

She walked very fast, but she could still hear the lady's voice. It was slightly emotional and a bit intense.

"Heinz, have you really found yourself a girlfriend?" the lady asked.

"I'm sorry." Heinz apologized, "Mom, I want to move forward."

Grace did not hear Heinz's reply as he spoke quietly as if he was deliberately suppressing it.
