In the Emerald Apartment.
After washing the dishes, Grace spent some time with the children. The two little guys knew how to entertain themselves, so they were not attached to her at all.
She left and the children were soon playing games with each other.
"Coffee or tea?" Grace asked Heinz, who was sitting on the sofa, with a smile.
The tall man on the couch raised his eyes, looked at her, and said, "Coffee!"
"There's no coffee left," said Grace as she shrugged her shoulders.
Heinz was dumbfounded. "Then why did you ask me?" he asked in a helpless tone.
"I just suddenly remembered that there's no coffee."
"Grace!" Heinz thought of the pot of coffee she had previously made at Tyler's and felt very jealous. "When do you want to move in with me? I have everything we need there, we can drink whatever we want."
Grace raised her eyebrows and said, "Am I the kind of person who would be tempted by a mere drink?"
Heinz was stunned. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Then do it for me. Come with me."
Looking at him, she smiled slightly and said, "Heinz, let's wait until you trust me completely."
When that happens, she would move to his place.
Heinz was stunned. After all, he had been involved in many business deals over the past years. He could easily tell that Grace had a hidden meaning beneath the words she had just said.
Heinz felt that her words were rather frosty.
"But, what does that mean?" Heinz asked himself.
Was he thinking too much, or did Grace know something?
He was not being completely truthful in their relationship. For the moment, Grace could partly overlook that. However, to completely resolve the matter, it would require Heinz to open up his heart.
After all, Jodie had already passed away.
Grace looked at Heinz with a gentle smile.
Heinz was frozen. He said softly, "Do you think I don't trust you?"
"Yeah," admitted Grace frankly with a smile, "I think, you don't trust me completely. I am a woman, and my sixth sense is pretty accurate."
The sixth sense?
Was she just suspecting him? Did she really know something?
Heinz looked at Grace doubtfully and quickly came to his senses. He said, "I trust you very much. If you say I don't trust you completely, that may be correct too. I am afraid that if you know that I am not a perfect man, you will immediately run away and ignore me. After all, I am very worried."
Grace smiled again and said, "But I am not a perfect woman."
"You're fine," Heinz shook his head and said seriously. "Grace, I don't want to lose you."
Grace looked at Heinz. The meaning behind his words was profound as well.
She nodded, saying, "Heinz, as long as it does not contradict my morals, I will not leave you."
"I think that we have gone through a lot, and we have Little Gary too. We will all work hard to face the problem together and solve it!"
Heinz nodded, got up and held Grace in his arms, sighing.
Grace thought that Heinz had sighed because he was still hiding the truth about Jodie's parents.
"I'm going to make tea," Grace patted him on the back, indicating that he should let go of her.
Heinz nodded and let go of her.
The two of them drank a pot of fragrant tea. The aroma of the tea filled the room, making it extremely warm.
The next day.
After sending the children away in the morning, Grace went to the newspaper office. At noon, she had a task. When she went out, she also found a chance to meet Jensen.
It just so happened that Jensen was at work.
