True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)

Chapter 192

When Grace Smith saw her good attitude, she felt utterly sorry for her.

"Sister, actually, a lot of things happened that day. I played with you and thought that you would be with

Simon. We had so much fun that day. But then, Marry came and gave us the drink," Alice Smith

recalled.

Of course, Grace remembered. She would never forget that night, not even in her dreams.

"On that day, you even stopped me from drinking the wine that Marry gave me. You said that I was

below 18 years old, still underaged, and was, therefore, I was not supposed to drink," Alice said, tears

welling up in her eyes.

She wiped the tears and continued, "But Marry claimed that it was light so I drank it and unexpectedly

got drunk after that."

"Uh." Grace suddenly recalled. "I didn't see you after that." "Yes, I went to my own tent to rest. I wanted

to come out after a while. However, as I was sleeping, it got hotter and hotter and was really

unbearable."

Grace's heart suddenly tightened and she felt distressed and guilty.

At that time, she did not notice this detail that Alice had been hurt.

"Was there a problem..." Grace's voice was a little

restrained."... with the wine?"

"Yes." Tears rolled down Alice's cheeks. "I felt so hot and wanted to cry for help, but I didn't know what

happened... When I was about to crawl out, someone hugged me, and then-"

Alice lowered her head and her hair draped down, covering her eyes.

Her shoulders were shaking slightly and she looked so fragile.

However, within the next second, she wiped her tears and continued,

"Sister, it hurt. The man was so strong and I couldn't see him clearly. I tried to cry for help, but the

words were stuck in my throat. I remember that my sensibility signaled for me to shout and refuse, but I

just couldn't control my body, so I eventually surrendered."

Grace felt sorry that she had not noticed these details. At that time, she was caught up in her feelings

for Simon and could not extricate herself from them.

After the incident, she was overwhelmed by the sadness of losing Simon. Furthermore, she got

pregnant. She lost herself for no reason and then she got pregnant. Eventually, she found out that she

had twins.

At that time, Grace was definitely not in the mood to care about Alice, let alone learn about her issues.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had neglected her younger sister, who was

still so young at that time.

She looked at Alice apologetically. "Alice, it's my fault. I didn't notice that you were bullied."

"Sister, it's not your fault." Alice shook her head. "I was really scared at that time. After what happened

with the strange man, I sobered up around midnight. I was very scared. I was only 17 years old and

didn't dare to tell you about it because I was afraid that all of you would look down on me. So, I left at

4:30 am."

After dawn, Grace couldn't find her.

That explained it.

Alice had left early in the morning.

No wonder Grace couldn't find her.

"Even after I got home, I didn't dare to look at you. I actually wanted to tell you, but I suddenly

discovered that you had lost your wits. Marry slept with Simon and he became our brother- in- law. I

didn't dare to say anything as I was worried that you all would blame me if you knew that what

happened to me."

"Alice." Grace stretched her hand across the table to hold her sister's hand.

Alice's hand was very cold. Talking about all these now still made her anxious.

Grace's heart hurt. "It's my fault. It's all my fault. If I didn't take you there to the banquet that night, such

a thing would not have happened. It's my responsibility."

She blamed herself, but what could she do to heal her sister's wound?

"Sister, I don't blame you," Alice shook her head and said. "That night was a nightmare for you too. You

lost your own first time, got pregnant, and even lost your first love. All that was a strong blow on you

too."

"That's my own fault." Grace sighed. "I was blind."

"But sister, Heinz is Little Gary's father and that is something to be grateful for. At least he is not a bad

old man." Alice took a deep breath, smiled, and regained her optimistic spirit.

Grace's heart ached for her younger sister even more. What a silly girl!

"Alice, do you want to know who that man is?" Grace guessed that the man was most probably Jensen

Charm.

"No." Alice immediately shook her head. "Sister, I don't want to know who that person is at all."

As she spoke, she even shrank a little.

"After all, I'm not interested in relationships between a man and a woman." Alice pouted. "One mistake

can ruin my entire life. I don't want a man anymore."

It hurt so much.

It was so painful that it became annoying.

"But, that man may be looking for you," Grace said after seeing her resistance, thinking that the

experience had traumatized her. After all, she was still so young then.

Jensen had mentioned that the person was quite young and he even suspected that she was

underaged at that time.

They could almost know each other.

She wanted to tell Alice.

"No, sister, I don't want a man."

"What if that man comes looking for you?"

"I'd rather not know."

"He may be very handsome, not a bad, old man," Grace said patiently. "Don't imagine him to be an

unbearable geezer."

Alice hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head. "I don't want to see men. I'm afraid of men."

Grace was stunned and her heart ached even more.

For a moment, she couldn't hold back her emotions. She sobbed and said, "Alice, if you go on like this,

I'll be very worried about you."

If the encounter with the man had cast a shadow over other men for the rest of her life, what would the

future hold for her?

She still had a long way to go.

This was only the beginning of her life.

Alice being this way only added to Grace's remorse.

When she thought of her younger sister being this way, she felt unbearable grief.

"Sister." Of course, Alice could sense Grace's worry. "Sister, I know you're worried about me, but I'm

still young. I really don't want to have anything to do with a man. At the very least, I don't want a

relationship with a man now. Simon is a scumbag, so is our father. Heinz even looked down on you,

which subverted my impression of him.

Therefore, all men are assholes. Why should I find a scumbag to make myself unhappy?" "Alice?"

Grace was shocked. It was not only just from the experience, but also the shadow from her childhood.

Grace did not expect the image of men as scumbags to leave such a shadow that it would affect her for

the rest of her life.

"Sister, don't worry about me." Alice was comforting Grace instead of the other way around. "I'm fine,

really. I think I'm very happy now."

Grace knew that the fact that Alice had the courage to talk about all these had already undone a knot in

her heart. Therefore, Grace shouldn't rush the process.

Grace had to patiently guide her instead of forcing her forward in a hurry.

"Sister, the pasta is becoming sticky. Let's eat." Alice looked at Grace with a smile. "Let's eat, shall

we?"

Grace lowered her head slightly with tears in her eyes.

She felt really sorry for her sister.
