"Mr. Charm, what do you mean by 'wait and see'?" Zayne asked faintly, "How should we wait and see exactly?"
Jensen blinked his eyes and said, "We just have to observe Simon and Marry and see if they've really changed to be better. If they did, then things would be fine, and there would be no more threats."
"In my opinion, it's a risk," Zayne said in a low voice. "There's a low possibility for people with criminal records to change to be better. Also, why should we be obliged to wait and see if they've changed? Why don't we just make sure they will never cause trouble again?"
"And how, may you suggest?" Jensen asked as he looked at Zayne. "I believe as long as they're alive, there will still be a chance for them to cause trouble. Are you suggesting that we should kill them then?"
Seeing that Jensen was being so defensive of Heinz, Zayne was no longer being polite either. "We can cripple them."
Jensen was speechless.
He immediately looked at Heinz.
Heinz was also feeling helpless.
He felt that what he did had somehow offended Zayne.
Not only was Zayne mocking him, but he wasn't paying him any respect either.
He sighed and said, "Simon is already crippled. One of his ears is damaged."
Zayne chuckled lightly. "How is that a disability?"
Heinz and Jensen were both startled. Was he really that ruthless? Simon already had one ear that was damaged, and he was already scarred. He had also spent so many years in jail, yet Zayne still wanted more.
"What do you consider a disability then?" Jensen couldn't help but to ask. He wanted to figure out what was on Zayne's mind.
To Jensen, Zayne was handsome and rich, yet he wasn't married yet, despite already being in his thirties. He was curious to know why as he found it strange.
"To be a vegetable," Zayne answered.
Heinz's lips twitched.
How cruel! Jensen thought.
A person in vegetative state could only lie in bed and definitely would stay out of trouble.
Timothy was helpless too to hear that. He noticed the awkwardness in Heinz and Jensen's expressions.
Timothy was the elderly after all.
He said to Zayne, "Stop talking about this. Heinz knows what to do and I believe he will get things done. Zayne, your sister told me herself that she's fine and not affected at all. She's just worried about you."
Hearing that, Zayne stiffened and was a bit bashful.
Jensen immediately exchanged a look with Heinz, a glint of light flashed across their eyes.
Both of them understood that Timothy knew how he could stop Zayne from lashing out.
As expected, Zayne did not say anything more and remained silent.
Heinz smiled and said, "Yes, Zayne, your sister is also worried about you. She was worried about your personal life."
As he spoke, he glanced at Jensen.
Jensen immediately understood and said timely, "That's right. She has been talking with my wife about how you should settle down already. If you are still not getting into a relationship, your dad would be so worried."
Zayne's face fell again, and then he looked at Jensen and Heinz. They were clearly putting up a two-man act against him.
Heinz and Jensen didn't feel anything at all as he looked at them.
They were even smiling at Zayne, and Heinz even said, "Zayne, considering how close you are with Grace, she is really concerned about you and Timothy. You should lessen her burden soon so that Timothy can also be rest assured."
Zayne glanced at Timothy helplessly as Heinz said that.
His own father was working along with those two to tease him.
He was just trying to warn Heinz to not always sacrifice on Grace's happiness and ignore Grace's feelings, yet Timothy betrayed him and was helping them instead.
Did Timothy really have to do that?
He sighed in his heart.
After a long while, he said, "I'll talk to Grace about that. Heinz, when do you plan to turn Simon and Marry into vegetable then?"
