True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 61

"That's my private business." Grace Smith said in a low voice.

Seeing that she resumed her arrogant unyielding attitude, Heinz Jones's eyes flashed with pity. He said in a low voice, "Take a seat and be reasonable."

Staring at Heinz Jones, Grace Smith wanted to find out whether he was lying to her or was plotting something against her.

But he did not have such intentions.

His dark eyes were filled with sincerity.

It is said that an earnest man is the most attractive.

Grace Smith could not help to be drawn to his serious countenance, which made him even more handsome.

She took a deep breath and took a seat.

Heinz Jones said, "First of all, Entertainment Daily is losing popularity day after day. Jones Estate is one of the top-performing corporations of Northern City and has much potential for growth. I won't let my company advertise in a low-end tabloid. It will ruin the branding of the company."

This was a stern attitude on his part.

Grace Smith could see that Heinz Jones was implacable in this regard.

It is said that one could discern another person's character from the depths of the eyes.

Grace pursed her lips, and without speaking, waited for Heinz to give a further explanation.

"Also, I think you have seen the behavior of Director Chen. It's really nothing to shout about. Why do you still work for him? If you shifted to another more high-end newspaper publication, instead of trying to promote this company which is low class and produces printings which are a dime a dozen, maybe I will consider collaborating with you by sponsoring a lucrative advertisement." Heinz explained.

Grace was stunned, and there was a touch of surprise in her eyes.

Heinz glanced at her and asked," So what are your thoughts? Are you going to resign?"

"I am bound by contract. Lorenzo Chen had someone draw up the terms and conditions in the contract for me." Grace explained.

Heinz frowned. "What are the binding conditions?" He asked.

"A compensation is required if I end up the contract now," Grace answered.

"I'll cover them for you. Do consider a change in jobs!" Heinz said.

She pursed her lips, and after some careful thought, said: "What would be your conditions?"

Heinz sneered and asked, "Didn't you just say that you're going to give it to me, and now you ask about this. Isn't that rude and flaky?"

Grace was stunned by his words and looked a little embarrassed. "Previously, I was willing to bet that you wouldn't continue. I guess I won."

Heinz gave her delicate little face a meaningful glance and chuckled. "You have great confidence in me. It is my honor, Miss Smith." He said.

"Mr. Jones, why do you want to help me?" Grace Smith asked.

"I told you, I like you." Heinz Jones looked at Grace Smith and said. "With this, I will help you. Is this an acceptable reason?" Heinz Jones asked.

Grace was still very nervous and whispered, "I learned from young that everything has a price in the world. I really can't bring myself to accept your assistance."

Heinz glanced around and asked in a deep voice, "What if you slept with me once?"

Grace glared at him when she heard it.

Heinz Jones smirked at her. Seeing her animated expression, he couldn't help chuckling.

"Grace, you just stated that you're not promiscuous. Why do you need to put yourself in such a moral dilemma?" Heinz Jones asked.

Grace felt a surge of emotion in her heart. It was indescribable, this sense of pulsating heat, coursing through her.

She looked up, staring at Heinz, her emotions in a whirlwind.

Heinz Jones locked his gaze on her, penetrating her, as though his eyes could blaze through her and discern her deepest thoughts.

She felt herself slowly losing her sense of judgment, almost losing control and descending into chaos. She lowered her gaze to hide her conflicting emotions, willing herself not to give away the depth of her distress.

Seeing her in this state, Heinz looked away, The corner of his mouth curled and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Shall we eat?" Heinz asked.

There was a deep male voice sounding close to her ear, Grace only felt a gentle sensation from it, leaving her intoxicated.

"Sure." Grace Smith answered.

"Do you have anything that you don't eat?" Heinz asked.

Grace immediately shook her head and said, "There is no taboo on my part. There is only desire and loathing."

"Do you crave for meat?" Heinz asked again.
