Chapter 1321


    Arge pair of hands had wrapped themselves around Grace''s waist, followed by Heinz''s deep


    voice.


    "Honey, what''s wrong with you? Why did you chase after Cindy? Is she worthy of you doing that?"


    Heinz''s tone was full of protest andint. He feared that she would be tricked by Cindy.


    Grace found it funny seeing how he looked so nervous.


    After so many years, Heinz was still so in love with her.


    He had always been anxious about her, bringing her along with him wherever he went.


    Even if Grace had to stay home to look after the children, Heinz would video call her several times a


    day if they were separated.


    It was because of these small details that their rtionship had yet to face any bumps along the


    way.


    Grace was very well aware of all these.


    Moreover, she was about to turn forty. She had no time for doubts.


    She was sure of many things, and she had the ability to discern the truth.


    She was not like how she acted when she was in her twenties, where she could just be indifferent


    and do whatever she wished.


    "Say something, honey."


    Seeing that Grace was silent, Heinz was anxious, "Did Cindy do something to you? What did she


    say to you? Listen to me, don''t believe whatever she says. This woman is malicious."


    "Silly," Grace shook her head and chuckled, "It''s been years. Do you still think that I''ll be provoked


    by just a few words?"


    "That''s good to hear," Heinz looked at his wife with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, "Are you really


    fine?"


    "Of course," Grace replied firmly, "I just went to remind her that she has to deal with that email. If it


    is really leaked, then it might crush her."


    "It''s fine if it''s leaked. What does it have to do with us? After all, we''re not the ones who did it.


    Besides, she''s the one who blundered. You don''t have to remind her."


    Grace shook her head in disagreement and said, "She''s still Celeste''s aunt. She''s adopted Celeste


    and raised her for so many years, so whatever happens to her will definitely affect Celeste."

    Heinz frowned and instantly understood what his wife meant. He sighed, "But don''t you think that


    people like Cindy should reap what they sow?"


    "She''s someone who once adored you, so are you willing to see her life''s achievements crumble in


    front of you?" Grace looked at him, her eyes sparkling.


    "Yes, I just want to see her crumble. Everyone loves to see women like her get what they deserve,"


    Heinz was ruthlessly straightforward, "It''s all because of you that I feel bad. Didn''t you just say that


    you wouldn''t be affected by her words?"


    "I''m not affected," Grace replied with a smile, "It wouldn''t matter if she is not rted to Celeste. I''m


    just worried that the media will catch wind of how Celeste used to be adopted by Cindy. I''m afraid


    that Celeste might be affected by this andizens might make a huge fuss over the guardianship


    issue."


    "Why are you so worried about Celeste?" Heinz protested, "I am a little envious. Do you know why?


    You have never been so concerned about me."


    "Look at yourself! You are envious of a little girl," Graceughed, "Do me a favor. Go and find out


    who is messing with Cindy." "Don''t ask for too much," Heinz warned her.


    Grace couldn''t help butugh again. She helped him sort out his cor and looked at him.


    "What if Celeste actually bes our daughter-inw? Won''t she be rted to us then?"


    "That''s not necessarily true," Heinz shook his head, "Gary and Ernest haven''t made up their minds


    yet. Perhaps they might have a change in taste."


    "Okay," Grace felt helpless and added, "Even if she''s not our daughter-inw, she is still our son''s


    ssmate. Wouldn''t the news affect her future? I''m not doing this for Cindy''s sake, but for Celeste


    and her future."


    "That''s also part of her destiny. It''s not necessarily a bad thing," Heinz uttered.


    "Are you going to do it or not?" Grace''s tone grew more solemn.


    Heinz immediately pursed his lips and looked at his wife. He protested silently, but was soon


    helpless after a while. He sighed, "Yes, I''ll go check it out now."


    "That''s more like it."


    Grace was amused by his exasperated look. She looked up at him with a smile in her eyes.


    The two of them exchanged nces. Some timeter, they burst intoughter.


    Meanwhile, Cindy, who was in the courtyard next


    door, saw this scene through the fence.


    She had calmed down, and self- mockery had tainted her gaze.


    It was true. Heinz and Grace were a perfect match. No one would be able to get between them.


    They were so eye-catching. It made her feel so envious.


    Cindy looked at them for a while, tears slowly brimming in her eyes.


    "Cindy," Katherine reminded her as she also cast her nces at Heinz''s house.


    With that, Cindy turned around and didn''t look back.


    Soon, they arrived back in the vi.


    Cindy shut herself in the room. She picked up the phone and called the director with whom she had


    a one-night stand with.


    "Hello, Mr. Hond, pleasee to London. I''m in big trouble."


    "What''s the matter?" The tone from the other end sounded very impatient, "I''m busy. I don''t have


    time for you."


    "The two of us were photographed," Cindy said.


    "When?" Mr. Hond was also taken aback. He couldn''t help but raise his voice and asked, "Who


    took it?"


    Cindy pursed her lips and admitted, "I did!"


    "Cindy White," Mr. Hond was so mad that he took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth,


    "What do you want?"


    "I took the photos because of the role in the film, but I didn''t expect that someone would actually get


    their hands on them. Now they are ckmailing me, and I fear that it will affect you."


    "D*mn it," Mr. Hond cursed angrily, "Are you trying to get me in trouble?"


    "I didn''t do it on purpose. You have to help me no matter what. I''m really in trouble this time," Cindy


    pleaded.


    "Ask your agent Monica to handle it," Mr. Hond refused, "She is the only one who is capable of


    doing so."


    Cindy pursed her lips and was reluctant to tell Monica about this.


    "Why don''t youe to London and bring along an expert," Cindy requested, "We have to know


    who it is first. Only then can we deal with this."


    "I don''t have the time," Mr. Hond scoffed, "Even if it''s really leaked, you are the one who suffers


    the blow. If your public rtions team can''t handle this, I don''t care if it''s really exposed."


    "How could you say this?" Cindy felt that her only glimpse of hope was disappearing.


    "In fact, I want to f*cking kill you," Mr. Hond shot back, "If you don''t tell Monica, I''ll tell her."
