True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 376

Initially, Grace wanted to pass her house key to Heinz so that he could sleep upstairs. However, she was afraid that he would still be asleep when she returned from grocery shopping. If that happened, she would not be able to enter the house. So, she decided to bring Heinz up first before going to the store.

That was why she didn't pass the key to him.

Heinz took a deep glance at Grace and then got out of the car.

His legs were a little numb, so he staggered and almost fell.

Grace supported him quickly and asked, "What's wrong?"

"My legs are numb," he replied in a hoarse and tired voice.

The strong scent of cigarettes encased him.

"Let me help you," Grace said. "Walk slowly."

He grunted in reply and shifted his body weight onto Grace. When he smelled the faint fragrance on her, his heart warmed.

"When did you arrive?" Grace asked him again.

"Half-past four," Heinz said. "It was too late. I was afraid that you would be sleeping, so I didn't go up."

"Don't do this next time," Grace said. "Don't sleep in such an uncomfortable position. You either knock on my door or go back to sleep at your place."

Heinz nodded and hummed in agreement. He replied, "I understand."

Grace lifted her gaze and both of them stared into each other's eyes again.

Heinz locked his eyes on Grace's eyes. He stared at her with a gaze as deep as the sea.

Grace was shocked and asked instinctively, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," he replied while shaking his head. "Come on. I'll go upstairs to take a bath and sleep."

"Okay," Grace agreed and helped him walk forward. His tall body was hugging her body and both of them went upstairs together.

They went upstairs and entered the house.

Grace said to him, "You can take a bath and go to sleep. I'll go and buy some groceries. Oh, there are leftovers of spaghetti and mashed potatoes in the fridge. Do you want something to eat?"

"I don't have an appetite," he said.

"Did you eat dinner last night?" Grace asked.

"No." He shook his head and said, "I only drank a bottle of water since I left here yesterday."

"Then, you should take a bath first. I'll prepare some food for you. After you have finished eating, I'll go out to buy groceries," she said.

"Okay," he agreed.

Heinz wanted to hug her again, but when he thought of the smell of disinfectant on his body after his hospital visit, he decided against it.

Then, he removed his shoes and quickly went to take a bath.

Grace went into the kitchen to heat up the leftover food, and she cooked a simple dish for him.

He hadn't eaten for a whole day. He must have struggled a great deal.

She wondered how Mr. Lawson was doing now. 15 minutes later.

The door was pushed open.

Heinz came out half-naked, wearing nothing but a pair of trousers. His chiseled chest was exposed, making him look exceptionally strong.

His hair was still dripping with water, making him look sexier.

Grace glanced at him and immediately closed her eyes, saying, "You can easily catch a cold if you don't wear a shirt."

"I'm fine," Heinz shook his head and said. Then, he walked over to her and lowered his head to look at her.

Grace didn't look at him. The moment she came into contact with his muscles which radiated heat, she quickly turned her face away.

She took a clean towel and handed it to him.

"Dry your hair. It's still dripping with water," she said.

"Help me," he requested before he sat down at the dining table. He looked at her and said, "Grace, I'm very tired."

She was startled for a moment and felt a little helpless, but she still dried his hair for him.

On the table were a plate of spaghetti, a bowl of mashed potatoes and a vegetable dish.

There was also a cup of warm water next to them.

He picked up the cup of water and drank it all up.

Grace wiped his hair with a towel.

His hair had grown longer, about three centimeters. She wiped it dry slowly.

She even wiped the water droplets on his body.

'TH get you a shirt," she said and was about to turn around.
