Chapter 112


    Grace Smith could not determine why Heinz Jones asked her such a question.


    But she didn''t want to get involved in this. The cooperation between Sunny Group and Jones Estate


    had nothing to do with her. It was not appropriate for her to attend such a meal. What''s more, she didn''t


    actually want to go.


    So Grace followed her heart and said, "I''m not feeling well, so I won''t go. I''ll go home after packing up


    my things."


    Heinz’s eyes shed and he looked at her with a meaningful look. Before he could say anything, Marry


    Smith took the lead,


    "Grace, let''s go together. It''s boring if you don''t join us."


    "I''m tired," Grace replied faintly. "The cooperation between Jones Estate and Sunny Group has nothing


    to do with me. I don''t have to attend." She continued.


    "Grace, how can this be?" Marry immediately said to Grace, "You stay in Mr. Jones''s president''s room.


    If we don''t let you go, it''s also a disrespect to Mr. Jones. You have to show us some respect no matter


    what."


    "I don''t think it''s necessary." Grace didn''t want to reciprocate her sister''s fawning attitude, so she just


    said lightly, "Marry, I don''t feel well, so it will only bring trouble if I have this meal with you. It''s none of


    my business whether Mr. Jones decide to go or not. I am a nobody to Mr. Jones, we are just


    colleagues. Marry, don''t misunderstand us."


    "Grace." Marry was very embarrassed. "Sorry, I know that you are in poor health. I''ll ask the driver to


    send you back to restter, okay?"


    "You don''t have to do that." Grace was toozy to entertain her.


    Marry''s face froze. She looked at Grace, as if she was thinking about something. "Are you working in


    Mr. Jones''s president''s office? Is it true then, what your brother-inw said, that you are working in the


    newspaper office?"


    Grace did not answer.


    Simon Brown felt ufortable when he saw Grace being so rude. The cold encounter he had


    suffered from Grace in the past few days made him feel quite uneasy.


    Simon immediately said to Grace grumpily, "Grace, your sister is being kind. Since you''re not feeling


    well, let''s eat something and we will take you home. It''s meaningful for us to have a meal together."


    "Sorry," Grace said coldly, "I don''t want to waste my time on such things."


    She didn''t like the way Simon was speaking, she felt very sad.


    She used to think that he was the best man ever. He was the Prince Charming in her heart.


    But when they met again, when she saw Simon, he fell short of her expectations. She felt that he was


    not the perfect candidate for the Prince Charming in her heart.


    Grace said this in front of Heinz and Marry, Simon felt a stab in his heart and said coldly, "Why do you


    have to be so angry with me and Marry? You are being so ignorant."


    Grace instantly straightened her back. If she had still a choice, she would turn around and leave now.


    However, in the elevator, she had nowhere to go.


    Her eyes were a little red. She took a deep breath to stop her tears from flowing. It was not worth it for


    such a person.


    Grace looked at Simon and felt disgusted.


    Her eyes were cold, and she didn''t give Simon any respect at all. "Mr. Brown, I am angry with you and


    she? Who am I to do that? I don''t think I have any rights to be angry with you guys. It''s not like I have

    just been ignorant for a day or two. It''s none of your business anyway! Don''t you think you''re trying to


    poke your nose into other people''s business?"


    Simon was stunned. A look of embarrassment and anger appeared on his face. He didn''t expect that


    Grace would be so rude.


    "Ah, it''s been five years since west met, and you''ve be so unreasonable. Fortunately, I married


    your sister back then," Simon said coldly.


    Upon hearing that, Grace felt a stab of pain in her heart. It was not for Simon, but for her immature


    youth.


    Her sharp eyes fell on Simon''s face and she said word by word, "Then what are you nagging about in


    front of me?"


    "You—" Simmon shivered with anger.


    "Simon." Marry immediately reached out and pulled Simon. "She''s angry. You''re her brother-inw. Just


    give in."


    Simon pointed at Grace and said to Marry, "Marry, did you see that? She''s cold- blooded now and


    doesn''t care about Sunny Group. She''s selfish."


    "Don''t say it." Marry immediately shouted, "Grace will be upset if you said like this."


    Looking at the couple, Grace suddenly smiled sadly.


    She didn''t want to say a word, but it turned out to all be her fault. They were so annoying. Why was it


    her fault for not wanting to join their meal?


    Didn''t she have any freedom at all?


    She squinted and looked at Simon, her eyes were full of stubbornness. "Who says I am feeling bad? I


    don''t deserve to feel bad for such a self-righteous guy. I''ve seen narcissistic people, but I''ve never seen


    someone like you."


    "Grace, why are you behaving like this?" Marry immediately said, looking at her with sadness in her


    eyes. "I am your sister. I''m very sad to see you this way. Do you know that?"


    Grace frowned. She was really speechless.


    "Marry, don''t talk nonsense with her." Simon said coldly, "We are all kind- hearted, but she doesn''t


    appreciate it. It''s up to her. Whether she likes it or not, it''s up to her."


    "Can''t you just stop?" Marry chided Simon. She then tried to persuade Grace again. She turned to


    Grace and said, "Grace, I''ll ask you again. Do you want to have a meal with us?"


    "No." Grace refused unceremoniously.


    Marry''s face froze and she looked at Grace with a frown.


    Grace turned her head away.


    Marry''s eyes fell on Heinz''s face, but he looked as if it had nothing to do with him.


    Simon suppressed his anger and said to Marry, "Marry, we can''t afford to treat this big reporter from


    Entertainment Daily. Why do we have to make trouble for ourselves?"


    Marry still looked at Grace. After a long time, she sighed helplessly and said, "Well, if you don''t want to


    go, then forget it. Well go to have our meal and celebrate with Mr. Jones after signing the contract. You


    can go back to rest. Call me if you have any trouble. As your sister, I will definitelye to see you."


    Grace turned her face away and frowned. Sister?


    This form of address was extremely sarcastic to Grace right now.


    "There''s no need." Grace said coldly and lowered her head. She looked at her toes and took a deep


    breath. She didn''t want anyone to see her weak.


    Heinz calmly looked down at Grace, only to see her lowering her head with her bangs hanging down.


    Silky and smooth, her hair shrouded her face.


    It would be nice if her temper was as soft as her hair.


    Looking down again, he suddenly saw two streaks of tears falling on Grace''s feet. He grew tense, and


    his eyes shed with a vicious light.


    More tears began to drip down.


    Only then did Heinz confirm that it was her tears.


    But quickly, Grace took a deep breath and regained herposure, she refused to be weak.


    She raised her head, and Heinz saw that she was no longer crying, but her reddened eyes gave away


    the truth.


    His sharp eyes nced at Marry and Simon. He then smiled maliciously and said in a deep voice, "You


    two, I don''t seem to have agreed to have a meal with you, have I?"
