True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 927

Lawrence was rendered speechless by Grace and he found that she had a very strong sense of contempt towards him. Plus, she had never taken him as her father-in-law.

Lawrence couldn't help but frown, and his gaze became fiery out of anger. He pursed his lips and said coldly, "What do you mean?"

"Are you going to deny it?" Grace retorted without hesitation. "You can deny it, but you can't control other people's thoughts."

"Grace, do you have some kind of prejudice against me?" Lawrence asked with a frown.

"Yes, I am prejudiced against you. Why would I not? Have you done something to alleviate that?" Grace asked back bluntly. She then added, "Frankly speaking, it would be impossible for you to earn my respect."

"And why is that?"

"If you want to interact with your daughter-in-law like a normal family does, or you want your children to have some dignity, you have to be a competent father- in- law and father before anything else. As a father, you've abandoned your son and your wife. You left them to have a love affair, and that's your mistake. With this, it's impossible to have someone to respect you." Grace spoke succinctly, and she said seriously, "Even if you want to earn my respect now, it's impossible. What you have done in the past is what you will suffer today. Luck comes and goes. It's alright as long as everyone knows what they have done."

Hearing this, Lawrence was stunned before his eyes were filled with fury. "You... you are really sharp-tongued."

"Thank you for the compliment. Not everyone would say that, but almost everyone would think so. I am indeed very sharp-tongued. I don't usually speak like this, but when I do, you may not be able to defend yourself." At this point, Grace didn't bother being polite.

She told him all the things that Heinz and his mother had suffered through over the years, as if she had been holding her breath all the while.

Lawrence gritted his teeth and glared at Heinz. He said sarcastically, "So, this is the woman you married? I must say that you've found yourself a wonderful wife!"

"It's none of your business!" Heinz shouted coldly. "What does it have to do with you? It's not like you're married. You're not qualified to judge

Grace." "Am I the one who's judging her? She is clearly judging me instead!" Lawrence reaffirmed his statement by adding, "She has no respect for me, her father-in-law. Heinz, is this how you treat your father?"

"What?" Heinz sneered in response and said, "Are you trying to lecture me about attitude problems? What a joke."

"I'm your father!"

"Lawrence." Heinz bellowed at him again, saying, "The fact that I didn't chase you out is polite enough of me. Do you think that you have the right to be arrogant just because you haven't been thrown out? You have come to me several times, and you're incredibly annoying when you insist on not giving up until you reach your goal. Do you know that I feel disgusted whenever I see your face?"

At that, Lawrence was once again dumbstruck. He gaped at Heinz in disbelief, and the look in his eyes was full of pain.

He was frozen in place by these harsh words aimed at him, and he felt very miserable.

"You brought my mother's photo again today. Why do you want me to look at it? I'll have you know that when I see my mother's photo, I will cry out for her. All the resentment welling up in my heart will flow like a broken dam. I hate the fickle man that you are. What you did to my mother made her die an early death. Yet, you have the audacity to come to us? You are really detestable."

After that, Lawrence was silent for a long time upon being humiliated by both Heinz and Grace. He was infuriated, but he wanted to meet Candace.

He needed to meet Candace.

"I want to see Candace," Lawrence said sincerely. "If you let me see her just this once, I won't bother you anymore."

"You want to see her so badly because you just want to know if she has ever loved you. The truth is, you already know that she never did. You won't believe it, so you want proof. This is actually all simply your self- deception." Grace continued mercilessly, "I don't want you to see her as this regret should be left behind her. Heinz's mother and my father all came to a sorry end. Why did innocent people like them have to pass away in such misery, yet you want to leave without regrets?"

Again, her words instilled greater shock in Lawrence.
