True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 945

Heinz checked the caller ID and realized that Alice was calling. He quickly answered the phone. "Alice?"

"Heinz, is my mother dead?" Alice's trembling voice sounded over the phone.

Heinz was stunned. "Who told you?"

"Jensen's mother," Alice said. "My mother-in-law."

Heinz had a feeling that it wasn't Jensen who told her, so how did Aunt Brooks know about it?

It seemed like Jensen might have told her. Then again, it was not the time to pursue that matter now.

Heinz could only tell Alice the truth. "Yes, your mother has passed away."

"Uh!" Alice took a deep breath. After a slight pause, she calmed down. However, she still sounded a little emotional. "Heinz, does my sister know about this?"

"Yes, she knows," Heinz said. "Alice, don't worry. I understand your feelings. Your sister is afraid that you will be sad, and that is why she didn't dare to tell you. There is no way to bring someone back from the dead. I'm sorry for your loss." "Heinz, my mother died miserably, didn't she? Was she murdered?" Alice asked again.

"No." Heinz said, "She committed suicide. You can ask Jensen. Jensen already has the results. I have no idea how or where Aunt Brooks heard this. Don't listen to the rumors. If you want to know more about it, you should ask Jensen."

"Alright!"

After Alice hung up the phone, Heinz hurriedly called Jensen. As soon as the call was connected, Heinz immediately asked, "Jensen, what's wrong with you? Aunt Brooks found out about Candace's death and told Alice about it. Now Alice knows about it. She even asked me if Candace was murdered."

Jensen's heart thumped in his chest. He was shocked. "My mother must have overheard the conversation I had with my dad. Oh, cr*p! I told him to take care of Alice's feelings."

"You should not have told him," Heinz said. "At least, you should have personally told Alice. She shouldn't hear it from someone else."

"I did not expect her to find out this way. I'll call her right away." Jensen also realized the seriousness of the problem. "Don't worry."

"Alright."

Heinz hung up the phone and turned to look at his father. He was quite emotional right now. He held the letter given by Candace in his hands while tears streamed down his face. He was incredibly upset.

Heinz sighed and said, "Now that you know the truth, don't give up on yourself. She wants you to live well. She hopes you will spend your remaining years in peace and comfort. You don't have to be depressed."

"I shouldn't have," Lawrence muttered. His voice was restored, but he felt extremely regretful. "I shouldn't have treated her like this."

Heinz smiled bitterly and did not say anything.

He should not have done this. He should not have done that. Whatever was done, was done.

There was no way to turn back time.

He turned to look out of the window, his eyes full of regret and unwillingness. He felt a little unfair for his mother who had died of depression.

She was married to a bad husband.

It was a lifetime of regret.

"President Jones, where are we heading?" Alex was driving. He had no idea where he was suppose to drive Lawrence. Should he send Lawrence home?

"I want to get down from the car." Lawrence said, "I think I should head back to the hotel. Why don't you stop me by the side of the road?"

Heinz thought for a moment and finally said to Alex, "Why don't you drop him off at the hotel?"

"Alright!"

The car soon arrived at the entrance of the hotel. Heinz was the first to get out of the car as soon as it stopped.

Lawrence got out of the car as well. The father and son stood outside the hotel, face to face. Lawrence looked at Heinz with tears in his eyes and said, "I..."

He opened his mouth, but the words were stuck in his throat. He did not know what to say.

After all, he had made a lot of mistakes in the past. Lawrence felt guilty when he came face to face with his son. When the words were about to come out of his mouth, he just did not know what to say.
