Heinz panicked in an instant. He quickly asked Grace to lie down and said softly, "Are you very tired? I'll give you a massage. It's my fault. I was too entangled in the affairs of the children that I neglected you."
Fortunately, Heinz did not continue to worry about other things. He immediately massaged Grace's legs, and his restless heart felt much better too.
"I'm glad you know that," Grace said to Heinz. "I'm so tired. I can't give birth when I'm this old. It's hard for me to even breathe, let alone walk."
Grace stroked her lower abdomen. She was only four or five months into the pregnancy, and her belly was already slightly bulging. In a few more months, it would be bigger.
That was especially so since she was pregnant with twins, her belly would definitely be even bigger.
Looking at his wife's belly, Heinz wished he could go through the difficulties on behalf of his wife.
"We really won't have anymore babies after this,"
Heinz said as his heart ached for her.
"I won't give birth to another child anymore no matter what you say. After giving birth, we still have to raise the children. Although we have the money and are capable, there is no way to replace the love you have to give to a child." Grace knew very well that raising a child was not easy.
They already had four children. Even though they had given birth twice, they had twice as many children as others. As Grace was pregnant again then for the third time, there would be even more children.
"After giving birth, take good care of yourself. I'll find the best babysitter, the best confinement lady, and will have the housekeeper to take care of the children," Heinz said.
She looked at him and said, "There is going to be another girl. Based on my understanding of you and how you are treating Sylvia, do you think you can leave her to the babysitter and the housekeeper?"
Heinz was stunned. He didn't know how to answer the question.
Grace knew he would react that way.
Fortunately, she was mentally prepared. That time, perhaps Heinz would dote on that girl even more.
"Heinz, let's make a deal. This time, the girls will be treated equally as boys, and we can't treat them differently," Grace reminded him.
"Of course." Heinz immediately agreed.
"If you can't do it, I will leave the child to Alice," Grace said.
"No." Heinz shook his head as soon as he heard that. "Alice doesn't know how to take care of children at all. Even her own children had all become left-behind children by her."
"Nonsense." Alice looked at him and said, "Alice is at home every day. Although she works from nine to five, she still tutors her children on their homework every day. In the beginning, she also helped me with Gary."
Heinz pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, "Exactly, it was not that successful."
After hearing that, she immediately looked at Heinz and asked, "What did you say?"
Heinz shook his head quickly. "I didn't say anything. I didn't say anything."
Grace had already heard it. He glared at Heinz and said, "If you have any opinions, you should keep them to yourself because you are not a successful father either. It's only now that Gary called you dad. I'm afraid this is not only the result of our education, but also the embodiment of your lack of personal charisma as a father."
Heinz was embarrassed. He looked at his wife and twitched his lips. "However, now, he calls me dad, doesn't he? Does my personal charisma show now?"
"That's the child's benevolence. He doesn't want you to be teased by Simon," Grace replied in annoyance. "Hurry up and massage my legs. Don't stop massaging when you speak."
Heinz was stunned and smiled again. "Honey, I don't want to trouble Alice. She is now taking care of her two children. It's not easy for her to have to run Sunny Group and do all these at the same time. Besides, Jensen is very busy and can't help Alice much. We don't need to bother Alice any further."
She smiled gently and said, "What you said makes sense, but I am old and can't bear to see you spoil our child. What to do?"
"I'll change my behavior," Heinz said, "I promise to get rid of these bad habits."
"What if you can't?" Grace asked.
"I'll get a vasectomy," Heinz said.
"A vasectomy won't do. If you can't do it, you should castrate it," Grace said.
Hearing that, Heinz couldn't help but to tighten his legs and looked at his wife with horror. "No, we don't have to be so bloody, do we?" "If a man doesn't keep his promise, he can't even be regarded as a man. Why should he keep the distinguished features of a man?" asked Grace.
Heinz opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time.
Grace looked at Heinz's expression as he was speechless, and silently smiled. She just wanted to give him the lecture to know that he couldn't spoil their child.
That time, no matter what, things had to be done properly, and they would be treated equally.
Heinz massaged Grace's legs. The strength he exerted was perfect. It was not too hard, but also not too soft.
It was just right.
The blood flow and muscles were relieved, and she felt much better. She felt sleepy and wanted to sleep.
