True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2224

Sure enough, Heinz had caught Sebastian's weakness. Heinz asked, "From what you said, you haven't encountered any problems with your studies, so does it mean that you're having problems with something else?"

Heinz smiled as he spoke. The smile on his face was profound and meaningful, and it made Sebastian even more shocked.

Sebastian's heart lurched as he stared at Heinz. He had not expected that he would fall for his father's tricks.

However, Sebastian did not panic. Instead, he laughed and said, "Dad, why do you say so?"

"Am I wrong?" Heinz blinked, a shrewd glint in his piercing eyes.

Heinz knew that Sebastian was faking it. Did Sebastian not understand that Heinz would be so much more experienced than himself? Heinz thought to himself.

"Dad, I've been staying at home for nearly a month. What problems could I possibly have?" Sebastian remained calm as he continued, "I don't lack any necessities, nor am I starving. Naturally, I wouldn't face any problems." "If you don't face any problems in your everyday life, what about your emotional state? Are you facing any problems in that aspect?" Heinz asked.

Sebastian raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you mean by that, Dad?"

Heinz could not help thinking that Sebastian was indeed quick-witted. Sebastian was just as sharp and intelligent as Heinz was. Heinz thought to himself, full of admiration for Sebastian.

Sebastian and Sylvia were so smart that it was not easy for Heinz to play any tricks on them.

But Heinz was in no rush. He merely smiled slightly and said, "For example, kids your age tend to fall for each other. Are you in love with someone?"

Upon hearing that, Sebastian raised his eyebrows and stared at Heinz for a moment. A gleam flashed across his eyes, but he said calmly, "You mean, am I in a relationship?"

"That's right. Spring is the season where everything blooms, a season for fresh and new beginnings." Heinz smiled and continued, "How about you? Do you have any girls that you're interested in?"

Sebastian shook his head, gazing calmly at Heinz. "I have no interest in that. It's not something that's on my mind for the time being."

"You're really not interested at all?" Heinz asked in a tone of disbelief.

Refusing to give up, he looked at Sebastian mischievously and said in a tempting manner, "Sebastian, even if you fall in love at such a young age, it's all right. I believe that you're someone who can plan everything well. Moreover, you're excellent in all aspects. I believe that even if you do fall in love with someone, it won't affect your studies at all."

"Dad, I don't know where you got the confidence to think so highly of your youngest son."

"Why wouldn't I? I've always had plenty of confidence in you." Heinz smiled, gazing at Sebastian meaningfully.

Sebastian knew that Heinz was probably suspecting him of something. Knowing that there was no point in trying to avoid Heinz's questions, he decided that it was better for him to just face them head-on.

Therefore, he looked at Heinz and said frankly, "To me, I think it's not possible that having a relationship won't affect my studies. Furthermore, my priority now is to focus on my studies. I'm a senior in high school, so it's my responsibility to study hard. I assume you haven't forgotten the fact that I'm still in high school." "If you're worried that I might stop you from being in a relationship because you're just a high school student, then you can rest assured that I won't. I'm not such a busybody. Your mum and I aren't that type of parents either. We're both very open-minded, so don't you worry about that," Heinz replied, still trying to persuade him.

Dumbfounded, Sebastian looked at Heinz suspiciously. He felt that Heinz was acting very strange.

"Whatever it is, I have no intention of doing so."

"Sebastian, you don't have to work so hard."

"I'm not working too hard," Sebastian said bluntly. "Why would you say that?"

"Aren't you tired?" Heinz's face was full of suspicion. Clearly, he did not believe Sebastian. He smiled and said, "I noticed that you've been looking miserable. That's why I thought that you had encountered some problems. At your age, I think there shouldn't be anything that would make you that upset apart from relationship problems."

"Dad, I'm not such a shallow person," Sebastian replied.

Heinz did not respond to Sebastian's remark. Instead, he pressed on by saying, "All right. I can understand if you don't have a girlfriend. Then, are there any girls that caught your attention?" "Not at all," Sebastian answered without hesitation.

"Aren't you answering me a little too quickly?" Heinz asked with a smile, "You answered me so quickly. Either you've already thought about how to reply to such a question, or you're deliberately trying to avoid it."

"Dad, you're really making me a bit speechless. I don't know how to answer your questions. You don't even believe me when I tell the truth. Could it be that you want me to lie?"

"It's because your words are too insincere. You're just like how I was when I was young," Heinz replied.

Stunned, Sebastian pursed his lips. There was an inevitable hint of defeat in his gloomy expression.

"Dad, why don't you just ask me directly? Which aspects do you think that I'm having a problem with? Or perhaps you're thinking that I'm in a relationship with someone? Just say it."

"No. I really can't tell who you're in a relationship with, so I'm worried about you." Of course, Heinz would not admit his doubts.

After all, it was all nothing but a wild guess.
