In Julesburg.
After learning the news of Heinz and Jodie's divorce from Alice, Grace found it difficult to calm her heart down for a long time.
She could not describe this feeling clearly; she did not know whether it was joy or sadness.
She only felt that if a couple's marriage had reached a point where it was in a desperate state, it was really regrettable.
Grace even felt sad because there were only a few possibilities for each person's marriage.
A couple might happily and lovingly live together, completely blessed, and walk hand in hand together for the rest of their lives.
Some couldn't get through it or get along well. In the end, they were like strangers, breaking up and ending the relationship.
There was also another type, where they might not have any feelings for each other. Although they had not divorced, they had no love between them.
Of course, the first kind of marriage was what everyone wanted and yearned for, and the latter two were things that no one wanted.
Grace did not know if she could live a happy life with Heinz if they got back together.
She was terrified that she would be like Jodie, having no part in Heinz’s life anymore in the end.
Therefore, at this moment, Grace's mood was extremely complicated.
She felt relaxed, yet sad. She really didn't want to be another Jodie.
Of course, she also knew that this idea was pessimistic. People should look forward and not think like this.
However, all the possible results could happen. No one could predict what would happen tomorrow.
Knock, Knock! Someone was knocking on the door, and the sound interrupted Grace' s thoughts at this moment.
She came to her senses and immediately went to open the door.
She saw Hermione standing at the door and looking at her with a smile.
"Hermione."
Hermione smiled and said, "Come on, let's get some food!" "I've had dinner on the plane," answered
Grace.
"The food on the plane was bad. Let's eat something delicious now and replenish our energy. We may have to work tomorrow morning so if you want to eat good food, you may not have the time after today," Hermione retorted.
"Sorry, I forgot you didn't have dinner. You must be hungry now. Let's go. I'll go with you." Grace remembered that Hermione ate nothing on the plane.
The two of them quickly went to the hotel's restaurant. They found a seat by the window. As it was a little late, not many people were there.
As soon as she sat down, Hermione handed the menu to her. "Order some dishes!"
Hermione's movements were agile.
She had a domineering pride and forthrightness.
After thinking for a while, Grace smiled and answered, "I'm not hungry. Hermione, what do you want to eat? You should be the one to order it!"
Grace smiled awkwardly and continued, "I'm really not hungry."
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry," Hermione persuaded her. "Grace, take it as your meal allowance. You will get reimbursement, so you don’t have to save the money."
Grace didn't know whether she should laugh or cry when she heard that. "Is it not good to save for you?"
"It's great, but there's no one to accompany me to eat. It's too uncomfortable for me to eat alone." Hermione smiled and said, "Hence, you'd better order some."
"Well, I'll order two dishes." Grace took the menu and ordered two of the cheapest dishes.
Hermione looked at the dishes she ordered and grunted, "Grace, do you know that from the dishes you ordered, I can know your character?"
Grace looked at her in surprise and seemed to have understood something. "Hermione, I seem to understand what you meant."
Hermione took over the menu and continued to order four dishes.
