True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 380

"I don't want to be this emotional either," Pearlyn Drake said, feeling slightly embarrassed. "But my body just responds like this. It's worse when I see them. Heinz is the one who has arranged all these for us. If it weren't for him, Nathan and I would have been helpless since long ago."

"Mom!" Heinz Jones said, "Don't mention it. This is my duty."

"I just can't accept it," Pearlyn sighed again.

Jensen Charm glanced at Heinz. He could understand why Heinz had addressed her in that way, but he was also worried about it. As Heinz's woman, would Grace be able to accept his way of addressing Pearlyn?

In fact, any normal person would mind such a situation.

Humans were usually narrow- minded, especially when it involved the relationship between a man and a woman. It would be difficult to be tolerant of this kind of matter.

If Grace were to hear Heinz addressing another woman's mother as his own, she would probably feel very uncomfortable.

Jensen could only conceal his worries. At that moment, he couldn't say anything.

After all, Heinz was Mr. and Mrs. Lawson's only pillar of support at the moment.

"Mom, I'm going to visit Dad now. I'll come to see you later," Heinz said when he saw the caregiver getting Pearlyn some soup. He was also concerned about Mr. Lawson.

"Go ahead," Chief Stone said, "You will feel more relieved after checking on him. I'll keep Pearlyn company, so don't worry."

"Okay."

Heinz and Jensen then left together.

The moment they left the ward and entered the elevator, Jensen couldn't resist asking, "Are you not planning to change the way you address her?"

Heinz nodded and said, "Yes, I don't plan to change it."

"What do you think will happen if Grace finds out about it then?"

"She knows about it. I didn't hide it from her. However, she thought that Jodie was a man, so she doesn't mind me addressing Jodie's parents as my own," Heinz said. His gaze was deep and slightly melancholic.

"But, once she knows that Jodie is a woman and that she was your—"

"That's why I feel conflicted," Heinz replied, seemingly to be at his wits' end, "Previously, she had insisted on breaking up with me over a small issue. If I tell her the truth now, she might be even angrier."

"Then, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to have another baby with her," Heinz replied, with his eyes closed, "But, her health is not good at the moment. She shouldn't get pregnant for the next year. Even after a year, nothing is certain."

"Heinz," Jensen was shocked, "Isn't your method too risky? If Grace knows that you are planning to bind her up again with a child, I'm afraid that she might leave you."

"Tell me what I should do then!" Heinz shouted in annoyance, "Right now, I'm afraid to tell her the truth. Even when I keep it a secret from her, I'm still worried."

Jensen's mouth twitched as he shouted back, "Why are you shouting at me?"

After all, Jensen was not the cause of his suffering.

Heinz let out a long restless sigh.

Jensen could understand Heinz's dilemma completely. He too was afraid that Alice would realize that he was the one who had hurt her back then. Therefore, he didn't dare to tell her the truth.

Therefore, Jensen felt that Heinz and himself were in the same boat.

Heinz fell silent once again.

His handsome face was extremely gloomy.

Jensen sighed again. When he saw how helpless his good friend was, he couldn't help but sympathize with him.

Some words would cause trouble no matter if it was left unspoken or if it was out in the open. At that moment, it was as if they were walking through a landmine. They could only take a step at a time.

"Look at us. We once lived so freely. Yet we have to be so careful now," Jensen said and sighed.
