True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 987

Heinz sneered and retorted, "Do you have the money to cremate her? You can't even afford to process the formalities, can you? What legal evidence do you have to prove that you can be responsible for the body?"

"I loved her." Lawrence said, "Is this proof good enough?"

"You loved her?" Grace sneered, "You love her so much that you wanted to kill her. After she died for you, you still let her die in vain. Don't you think you are in no place to make this request?"

According to Heinz, Lawrence no longer had any money left in his hand. He didn't even have enough cash to stay at a hotel. He was in huge debt.

"Grace, this is your mother's last wish. She may just want to be with me!" Lawrence argued again.

"She wants to be with you? Haven't you two already been together? Isn't the past decade more than enough to prove it a tragedy? If you think that she wants this, then make her tell me herself," Grace replied coldly.

"You know that's impossible." Lawrence was very

depressed.

"Since she didn't say that, then I have nothing to say." Grace pointed to the door and said, "Please leave."

"Your mother's suicide letter proves that she loved me." Lawrence did not leave. Looking at Grace, he desperately tried to reason out with her. "She loved me. You said that she committed suicide because of me. She would rather commit suicide than let me go to jail because of her. She loved me, but I have truly let her down."

"If that's the case, why would you even think of making the request? How many people have you let down? Take a look at Heinz, and then look at your eight-year-old son. Who do you feel sorry for? You've not only disappointed Candace and Heinz's mother, but even more so for Old Master Carter's trust in you. You probably haven't done anyone right over the years, have you?"

Lawrence was rendered speechless.

Heinz did not know what to say either.

At this time, Nerissa came over and said, "Master Jones, let me introduce myself as Grace's aunt. I'm not very clear about the details, but I also feel that your request is very inappropriate."

Lawrence looked at Nerissa.

She added, "You can't be too selfish and focus only on your feelings. There are too many people who have been hurt by you. If you insist on your own way, you will hurt more people. In my opinion, people can't come back to life after death, so you don't have to worry about it. Let each other live in peace. Who knows if Candace wants to be with you in the afterlife?"

Lawrence was stunned and immediately rebuked, "She loved me."

"She loved you, but she may not necessarily want to be with you," Nerissa said. She looked at Lawrence and continued, "What's more, who knows if there will be an afterlife? Even if there is, how can it make you happy after making so many mistakes in this life?"

Lawrence kept quiet.

"In this lifetime, you both only had an ill- fated relationship." Zachary chimed in, "Aunt Candace had committed countless bad things for you. As it turned out, this was indeed an ill- fated relationship. You will not be together, so why do you have to worry about her ashes?"

Lawrence laughed self-mockingly and said, "I can't argue with you all since all of you are against it. You only argue that Candace and I were not legally married." "Master Jones," Nerissa spoke again. "It has been more than ten years since Grace's father, Anderson, and Heinz's mother had both passed away."

"You and Candace had been widowed, but you didn't legally marry her. I don't think you love her as much as you claim."

"You are probably only feeling guilty. If you really loved her, you would have married her a long time ago."

"If Candace had been legally married to you, it would be acceptable for her to be buried in the Jones family's ancestral grave. However, you didn't marry her. You can only accept this consequence."

Nerissa's firm words left Lawrence speechless.

He looked at her and was at a loss for words for a long time.

"Heinz, give your father some money," Nerissa said as she looked at Heinz.

Heinz was stunned.

She explained, "Just let him have a meal and a place to live. That would be enough."
