Lester went back to Heinz to report what had happened.
Heinz was at the entrance of the newspaper office at that time. He had just gotten into the car when he received a call from Lester.
"President, when the Lawson family's two elders heard that you were going to marry Miss Smith, they were very disappointed. They didn't cooperate and we have to deal with this matter ourselves."
"They still won't cancel the account?" Heinz asked.
"Affirmative." Lester said, "They said that they don't want to cancel the account, so they'll let us deal with it ourselves. President, I think you should begin the procedures, starting from the police station."
Heinz frowned. "I should cancel the account?"
"President, you are technically still Miss Lawson's husband. This is indeed valid if you come forward and provide proof that Miss Lawson has been dead for six years."
Heinz was displeased. "Can't you handle this
yourself?"
"President, I can do it for you. If you agree, then I'll start with the procedures," Lester said.
"Then do it." Heinz said, "Contact Jensen. Tell him to contact the household registration department and provide us with a certificate to sell Jodie's house."
"Yes!" Lester was given the green light and immediately went to perform his duty.
Heinz rang Grace once more, but her phone was still turned off. He was still worried.
It seemed like this woman really wanted to calm down completely.
He had no choice but to drive away.
This time, he was bored and did not know where to go. He felt so annoyed and depressed.
Before he knew it, he had reached home.
The bedroom was filled with memories from the previous night's intimacy and pleasant feelings.
But now, Grace wasn't here, Heinz's heart was filled with sorrow.
He laid on the bed, feeling exhausted.
Half an hour later, Lester called. "President, the Department of Household Registration said that without the signature of the parents and the proof of death, you cannot cancel Jodie's account."
"D*mn it." Heinz said angrily, "How can you fail to accomplish such a simple task?"
"I'll go to the Lawson family to work on it." Lester knew that the President wasn't in a good mood and was venting his anger on him.
"No, I'll go by myself." Heinz felt that he had to do it in person.
He got up from his bed and drove towards the Lawson family home.
No matter what, he had to settle this matter that day.
In any case, he had to cancel Jodie's account. Only in this way could he get his marriage certificate with Grace.
Heinz was very remorseful now. He was so careless that he did not manage to get things ready for the wedding.
He quickly arrived at the Lawson family's house entrance and got out of the car. His handsome face showed an indifferent expression and there was even coldness in his eyes.
He felt that at this moment, the Lawson family's parents were making things difficult for him.
At the hospital, he had said everything that he had to say.
He had also done a certain amount of things for the Lawson family. Five years was enough. Right now, for the Lawson family, there was no reason to stop him and Grace from getting married.
From Heinz's point of view, refusal was a barrier.
He pushed the door open and entered the garden. At a glance, he saw a woman's handbag, a large travel luggage and a purse.
The suitcase was pink.
It was Jodie's preferred color and the bag looked really familiar, as if he had seen it before.
He frowned and his heart began to beat wildly for no reason. He was very surprised.
The sound of people speaking came from the living room. It wasn't very clear, but there was excitement from the sound of it.
Heinz's frown deeper and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
