"I guess so." Grace felt that family bond was indeed an amazing thing at times.
Alice got a little excited. "Grace, when I touch your belly, I am reminded of the times when Gary and Ernest were still in your womb."
When Grace recalled those memories, she could not help but to smile and nod. "So many years have passed since then."
"That's right." Alice looked towards Leah and Celeste. "Look, the two little guys who were in your belly back then have their own girlfriends now, and they are both so beautiful too. I must say that we have really gotten old."
"Little aunt, you and Aunt Smith are not old at all," Leah immediately said, "I think that the best age to live in is yours and Aunt Smith's age. We are still too young. Even though we are energetic, there are still a lot of things in life which we don't know about.
As for you two, little aunt and Aunt Smith, you two have seen a lot of things in your life at your age, and you two know what you really want. You are more certain about your life goals, and you are not lost in life anymore.
So, I think that you two are living the best age for a woman. What's more, Aunt Smith, you still have two babies in your womb, so you are really not old at all. If I have to say, I would say that you two are at the right age."
Upon hearing Leah's words, Celeste nodded and said, "Yes, I agree with Leah's point of view."
"Leah, Celeste, you don't need to comfort us." Alice smiled and said, "Everyone will eventually get old, and it can't be avoided. The two of us can accept this fact."
"No, little aunt, we're not comforting you. I really think that women over 35 years old is at the time that they live their lives the best way, because women at this age will really be able to see through a lot of things." Celeste said, "Seeing through things in life, and being aware of what they want, and then only will one's life be marvellous."
"That's true, I also think that my life is a lot better than before." Alice nodded. "Even when I am in an argument with Jensen, I will quickly forget why we are quarrelling. Besides, I won't really get angry anyway."
"That's right, little aunt, you are living your best life now. We may be in our twenties, but without the experiences of life, we are more prone to act impulsively." Celeste explained, "Once we act impulsively, we might do a lot of wrong things."
Upon hearing the children's words, Alice and Grace looked at each other again. Alice said with a smile, "It's all right, you don't have to comfort me or Aunt Smith, we are both people who have gone through a lot. We don't mind being called out for being old by other people. Look, your future mother-in-law is pregnant at such an old age, isn't she? She still wants to give birth to another pair of twins even when she's already at her age, as if she's following the trend. Grace could openheartedly admit that she is still able to get pregnant at such an age, so we don't have to care about if we are actually at an old age now."
Both Celeste and Leah were stunned. They looked at her and were rendered speechless.
Alice smiled again. "However, it doesn't matter. I am thick-skinned, so I won't admit it. I will always be 18 years old at heart."
The topics that women had were always so magical. Perhaps it was because they shared some same opinions, they were able to draw closer to each other, and they were very happy.
What's more, their relationship was very special.
When Ernest arrived at the company, he sent a message to Leah at once.
"Leah, don't be nervous, and don't be afraid. My mother is an easy-going person. She will definitely like and support the woman that I like.
My family doesn't have any other requirements for a marriage, as long as we love each other."
When Leah received the message, she could feel how worried Ernest was. She secretly replied Ernest, "I am fine. Don't worry, Aunt Smith is a nice person, and so is little aunt. The same goes for Celeste."
After receiving the message, Ernest looked at it for a while before he relaxed himself.
He then went to look for his father.
Inside the president's office.
As soon as he entered, he saw his father and Gary there.
When Heinz saw Ernest, there was a smile on his handsome face. "Oh, my son is back. Have you finally woken up from your intimate love life?"
Upon being teased, Ernest smiled and glanced at his father. "For a man who can get a woman pregnant at over 40 years old, it doesn't seem right for you to dupe someone else."
Heinz was stunned. He looked at his son and sighed. "Can't you just let me tease you? Why
must you retort?" "I must." Ernest looked at his father calmly. "I have a girlfriend too. I even brought her home. If you make fun of me, how would I look in front of my girlfriend?"
