True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 928

Lawrence had an indignant expression, but he was the one asking for help. Looking at Heinz's arrogant attitude, he gritted his teeth and agreed in defeat, "Okay, two o'clock is fine. Where should I meet you?"

"We'll talk about it when the time comes," Heinz replied indifferently. "At two o'clock, someone will look for you. You don't have to ask."

Heinz didn't show much tolerance or patience when it came to Lawrence, and his tone was as chilling as the winter breeze.

Hence, Lawrence could only endure it. He didn't dare to provoke Heinz further, in fear that he wouldn't be able to see Candace anymore.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for your call."

At this time, the butler came and said, "Mr. Heinz, the food is ready. Would you like to eat, Mrs. Jones?"

The butler was afraid of delaying meals for a pregnant woman like Grace. When it came to preparing her meals, he dared not dawdle for even a moment.

Hearing this, Lawrence looked at the butler with hope in his eyes.

He had heard that Timothy had dinner here last night. As Heinz's biological father, he hoped that they would intend to have him stay for dinner.

"Alright, let's eat," Heinz said to the butler. "Grace, wait for me in the dining room."

"Okay." Grace nodded. As she walked toward the dining room, she heard Heinz say to Lawrence, "You can leave now. There isn't any food for you here."

Lawrence took a deep breath at this. He frowned while looking at Heinz and asked, "Timothy was allowed to dine here, but I, as your father, isn't allowed to?"

"Of course not," Heinz answered curtly. "Do you think you can compare to Mr. Yarbrough?"

"Why can't I?" Lawrence was in disbelief at Heinz's attitude.

"Mr. Yarbrough didn't know about Grace's existence. Once he found out, he immediately gave her his full care and attention. However, you abandoned your wife and son to have an affair. The two of you are the complete opposite."

However, Lawrence didn't listen to Heinz's words at all. He just sneered and said, "It looks like you're just sucking up to Timothy. I'm telling you, I'm your father. If you don't treat me well, it will affect the reputation of the whole Jones Estate."

"That's my business." Heinz said plainly, "To the general public, my father has long been missing, and no one knows if he's dead or alive. There is no difference as to whether you're there since people don't even know who you are. Even if they knew, you can only say that you're Old Master Carter's son-in-law. Nobody would ask who Lawrence is. Your previous reputation was also the reason why Grandpa was proud of you."

"Heinz!" Lawrence was about to combust from rage.

Heinz turned to look at him casually and repeated himself, "There no food for you here. Hurry up and get out."

"This is the Jones family's mansion." Lawrence couldn't outwit Heinz, so he had to bring up his claim over the house.

"This is the Carter family's home, and it's under my mother's name. It was transferred to me before she passed away," Heinz argued. "What does it have to do with you?"

"Did you pay for it?" Heinz interrupted Lawrence and asked, "Do you have the deed?"

Lawrence knew that he couldn't win this argument. His face was contorted with anger and he was incredibly annoyed. Nevertheless, he tried again. "Can't you let me just have a meal?"

"No," deadpanned Heinz.

"You're cruel, Heinz."

"I'm tame when compared to you."

In the end, Lawrence failed to convince him, and so he could only leave in disappointment.

He left quickly, and he looked despondent as he walked out.

Meanwhile, Heinz glared icily at Lawrence's leaving figure without saying a word.

When Lawrence disappeared in the distance and was out of sight, Heinz turned around and walked toward the dining room.

Grace was standing by the door and looking at him. Only when he got closer did she ask, "Do you think we've crossed the line?"

"What's done is done. Don't dwell on it," Heinz replied. "Let's eat."

Grace saw that he was in a bad mood, hence she didn't say anything more.

The two of them ate in silence.

After they finished their meals, Heinz went to make a phone call.
