True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 393

It was Monday.

Grace Smith got up early in the morning to make breakfast. After they finished eating, they went to the entrance of the kindergarten and waited for the children to come.

Little Gary and Ernest only stayed with her for a night that weekend. The children enjoyed the remaining time on their own.

They had grown up to the point where it felt as though they did not need her anymore.

She was waiting for her son and Ernest to go to school. She felt inexplicably empty.

Heinz Jones glanced at her and realized that she seemed a little down. He asked, "Do you miss the kids?"

Grace nodded and replied, "Yeah, I miss them."

"Grace, just move to my place. Let's stay together," he suggested. He stared at her seriously and his tone was sincere.

Grace was a little surprised. She did not expect him to bring it up so suddenly.

Moving to his place would mark the real beginning of their stay together.

In fact, she did not want to live together. Perhaps for women, marriage would be more desirable.

However, he did not mention it.

She lowered her gaze and her long eyelashes fluttered gently. She asked softly, "Do you want me to move to Ernest's place or your hillside villa?"

Heinz was very generous and he answered, "Well, it's up to you. Do you like the city or the hillside villa?"

"To be honest, I prefer the hillside villa. The environment is great. The place is spacious and the air is so much fresher. But, it's too far away from the city."

"I prefer the hillside villa too," Heinz continued happily, "It's great that we have the same taste."

Grace hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is the villa in the city huge too?"

"It's much smaller than the hillside villa and there's a big difference in the space. The hillside villa is a little far away but there's a designated driver to pick up the children, so we don't need to worry about the distance. We could live together on the hillside or we could stay alternately in the city and on the hillside. After all, we own both places."

It was nice to have someone to fetch the children but she still had to work. It was a little inconvenient because it was quite a long journey.

"Should I I pick a car for you?" he proposed, "It'll be much more convenient for you to travel to and fro from work."

She was taken aback and she stared at him with a complicated look. He was very thoughtful.

"If it's possible, I hope that you could just idle around. Go and get some facial treatments, do some shopping, and just be my lovely wife," He stared at Grace and revealed his wishes. He continued, "But I don't think that you'd be happy, so I respect your decisions. I don't mind if you want to go to work and I could take care of you too if you were to quit your job. Just do whatever you like."

"Thank you for understanding and respecting me," Grace said softly and shook her head. "I'd better go to work. I want to get some things done."

She did not want to lose the ability to survive. It was too insecure and the relationship would not last if she leeched on a man like a parasite.

"Then you should work," he said, "Don't turn down the car."

Grace had intended to shake her head.

However, he persuaded her before she could speak. He uttered, "Grace, you have even given me a son but you refused everything that I have to offer, and you don't intend to get even with me either. It's only right for me to compensate you, so don't turn down my kindness, okay?"

She nodded as she thought his words made sense. She agreed, "Alright, I won't turn you down. Just get me a smaller car. Call me when you want to buy it and I'll come along with you."

"Okay." He nodded and suggested, "How about today?"

"Let's do it a few days later," Grace added, "I'm not in a hurry."

"Sure," Heinz respected Grace's decision. He had ought to learn after making so many mistakes in the past.

"We could buy a car later but could you move in today?" he asked. He wanted to bring Grace back to his place immediately so that she would stay in his place forever and never leave again.

"We shouldn't be so hasty about it," Grace explained, "My apartment is very close to the kindergarten. We picked this place in the beginning because it's convenient to go to school."

Heinz was a little disappointed and he pleaded gloomily, "But you've just promised me."
