True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 766

Heinz looked at Grace as he held her in his arms and said, "I hope that after this crisis, everything unpleasant will vanish and we can be happy together."

"Everything will be fine," she replied as she gazed at him with tenderness. She felt that the experience this time around really calmed her down a lot.

"In that case, shall we get our marriage registered tomorrow?" Heinz seized the opportunity to lay out his cards on the table. This was what he worried about the most; the fear that she would not want to marry him, so much so that it had him feeling anxious.

Stunned, Grace recollected herself then, and responded, "We're in no hurry to get married. Why are you in such a hurry?"

How could Heinz not be anxious? They have almost registered their marriage last time, but alas, what happened, happened. It is only understandable why he was worried that Grace would leave him.

With that, he decided that it would be wise to have her officially bound to him. What binds two people more than a marriage certificate right? The marriage was just like a lock, one that would bind her to his side.

"I can't wait any longer," said Heinz. "I just want to be with you and never be separated from you again."

"Heinz." Grace called out to him to catch his attention. "The divorce certificate indicates that you and Jodie have just gotten divorced. It's far too soon for us to get married now."

"Are you really bothered by this?"

"Of course it does. I don't want to be the talk of the town again. Besides, everything is happening too quickly, hence I'm very worried.

I don't think it's appropriate for us to get married now," she explained.

"When do you think would be appropriate for us to get married then?" Pressed a rather anxious Heinz.

"Let's wait and see."

Although he was very disappointed with the outcome of the conversation, seeing that it was Graces' wish, he nodded in agreement and concluded their conversation.

In the Lawsons' place.

Halfway through their journey to the hotel, Lester, who had been entrusted to drive Nathan, Pearlyn and Queenie, was requested to detour to the Lawson family home. They had a change of mind and wanted to see their home for themselves.

At first glance, several fire trucks were seen surrounding their house. Jodie, on the other hand, was handcuffed by the police moments after they had arrived.

"What the hell is going on?" Nathan roared as he walked over.

When Jodie saw her parents, she smiled sinisterly. "You old b*stards, how dare you stand against me and try to destroy me? Since you're out for my head, I'm going to destroy you too. I'm going to make it impossible for you to live here once you're old," she cursed.

Hearing Jodie's words left Nathan stunned in his tracks as he felt a pang of fear creep under his skin.

"Jodie, how did you become so unreasonable? Do you know how painful it is for us to see you behave this way?" He asked as he looked at her with incredulity in his gaze.

"Why didn't you just die of pain, you old b*stard?" Jodie cursed at him. "You didn't even die when you got admitted to the hospital. You were only admitted for a night and then discharged from the hospital to hold a press conference, kissing up to Heinz and Grace. You're behaving more like their father than mine."

Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke. She then went on to wail loudly.

Nathan lowered his gaze and looked at her. There was such a mix of emotions that he couldn't put his foot down on what he was feeling through all the complications.

He sighed as he looked at Jodie and apologized, "Oh Jodie, it's all my fault. I didn't educate you well, and on top of that, I couldn't understand your feelings," he sighed as he looked at Jodie and apologized.

"I'm so sorry, Honey. You should be someone else's daughter in your next life. As it turns out, we are indeed unqualified to be your parents. We do not deserve you."

The police officers, who had overheard the entire conversation between him and Jodie, were instantly displeased and they voiced out their criticism. "She's almost thirty years old. She won't reflect on what she has done if you speak to her in this manner. You really don't know how to educate your offspring, and that is exactly what caused her to behave like a savage today."

Nathan felt pathetic. The policeman was right. He did in fact not know how to raise his daughter right.

With a self-deprecating smile, he looked at the police and said with sympathy, "Officer, it's my fault for not educating her well and causing you trouble, but regardless of the mistakes made, she is still my daughter. Please take her away. I may not have much time left, so please educate her for me. Otherwise, I won't rest in peace."

The police officers could see through Nathan's emotion. They knew this family's affairs too. Therefore, they sighed and replied, "Jodie must be taken away. This is arson, thus she must be sentenced. We'll check if the other residents are affected now. The rough estimate of losses and damages will be announced later. By that time, your family will definitely have to compensate the neighbors."

"Compensate?" Nathan was stunned and his countenance changed. They did not have much savings.
