True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 764

Grace paused. She did not expect Nathan to say such a thing to her. She stared at him in a daze. As she stared at the old man before her, she thought that he looked extremely sick and exhausted because of his illness, as well as because of his daughter.

"In the beginning, we were very selfish. Despite whoever Heinz marries, we were not happy about the idea. But often, we would feel remorseful about it, and wish that he had someone there for him."

"However, when we woke up in the morning, we would still feel uncomfortable about it. In our hearts, no one could compare with our daughter, Jodie."

"Now, my daughter is back. Our grief is gone, but it brought us new pain and helplessness."

"After experiencing so much, we have understood that in life, we have to endure hardships and karma. We shouldn't ask for too much."

"For us, Jodie being alive is the best thing we could ask for."

"Now that her scandals are out, we feel remorseful about it. Regardless, we apologize for it."

Nathan finished. Then he stood up from his wheelchair.

Pearlyn held him, and they bowed together towards Grace and Heinz.

"We're sorry."

Heinz and Grace looked at each other in dismay. In the end, they could only remain silent.

It didn't make sense to say anything at this moment.

Just then, the press conference began outside.

Queenie stood in front of the microphone behind the conference table. Facing the camera flashlights, she cleared her throat and started, "Hello, everyone. I'm Queenie Stone, Jodie's aunt. I'll take this opportunity to clarify something today."

"That is, Grace was never the third party in their relationship."

"When she was in a relationship with Heinz, my niece was reported to have died in Alsburg, just like what was reported in the news this morning."

"We were in deep grief during that time because she was gone. It would have been hard for any family to endure it."

"Not to mention that she was still very young."

"In the past six years, my cousin, Mrs. Pearlyn Drake, and my cousin- in- law, Mr. Nathan Lawson, were in a state of extreme sadness and grief."

"One of the biggest pain on this planet is to have your child die before you and to have to grieve for them. I believe that some of you in the audience could understand the pain."

"Six years ago, Jodie and Mr. Jones got married. Because they were young, they didn't hold a wedding after they impulsively received the marriage certificate. Eventually, their relationship came to an end."

"Mr. Jones signed the divorce agreement and gave it to his lawyer. When the lawyer gave it to Jodie, she refused to sign it. Without divorcing Mr. Jones, she went to Alsburg."

"Because we were living in sadness and agony, my cousin and her husband did not file for Jodie's divorce."

"We could feel that she might still be alive. We didn't want her to die." "In the past six years, Mr. Jones has taken care of Pearlyn and Nathan like they were his own parents. He brought them to treatments for illnesses and arranged a comfortable life forthem." "You could say that Mr. Jones took great care of both of them. He even hired maids and security guards for them to ensure that they lived well."

"Most people wouldn't be able to do it as well as Mr. Jones did."

"In fact, he has also taken great care of me."

"Before this, he introduced Grace to us. We were selfish and we were worried that Heinz would have his new family soon and that he would no longer take care of us."

"We even said harsh things to her, but she didn't do anything against us. She didn't mind Heinz taking care of us and she asked for him to continue doing so. Therefore, we were deeply touched by her kind-heartedness."

"What I am trying to say is, Grace was never the third party in Heinz and Jodie's relationship."

"She met Heinz six years ago after Heinz and Jodie agreed to sign the divorce papers. The two of them had a child together. They reunited again five years later and confirmed the relationship."

"Therefore, she was not the third person in the relationship."
