True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 405

Heinz was dumbfounded. He threw Grace a pleading glance.

Gary had left him with egg on his face.

Looking at his helpless face, Grace shrugged, indicating that there was nothing she could do.

Heinz made a pleading gesture again, which made Grace laughing lightly with amusement.

There was a look of frustration on Heinz's face.

"Okay, enough of talking. Hurry up and wash your hands. Let's have dinner. I'll check on the rest of the food in the kitchen."

"Mommy, are you standing on Heinz's side?" Gary complained. "Women are always so irrational when it comes to men!"

Grace squirmed and raised her voice, "Little Gary!" "Alright, let's eat," Little Gary did not care anymore. "I know my place in this house already. No big deal." Everyone burst into laughter.

Ernest, too, was laughing along.

Little Gary opened his mouth again, "Ernest, aren't you going to fight back a little? If you don't, I'm afraid you'll be in a worse position than mine!"

Ernest smiled and said, "I don't mind. It doesn't matter where I stand." "You are so chill about everything," Little Gary sighed. "Fine, I'm just meddling in other people's affairs."

Alice chimed in, "You will live a life full of worries."

She looked at Ernest with a sour face.

Ernest was Heinz's child, and Grace had accepted him just like that. Alice felt aggrieved on behalf of her sister.

Pulling Grace into the kitchen, Alice lowered her voice and said, "Tell me, Grace. Ernest is his child. Can you really accept it?"

Grace shook her head and said in a low voice, "Alice, Ernest is not his biological son. Heinz adopted him, but Ernest doesn't know. Jensen knows it too, you can ask him."

"Not his biological son?" Alice's eyes widened in surprise. "Ernest is really not his biological son?"

"Yes," Grace nodded. "I don't think Heinz has any reason to lie."

"But they look alike," Alice said. "Ernest looks a little similar to Little Gary. You could feel that they are real brothers when you look at them. Anyone who sees them together would say so."

"Maybe it's fate?" Grace sighed. "I feel sorry for this child. The moment I see him, my heart ached. I adore him very much."

"Me too. I like him too. He is more obedient than Little Gary," Alice said. "Even if he is Heinz's biological son, I couldn't bear to scold him or anything. He looks so cute."

"Well, you should change your attitude toward Heinz," Grace said. "You and Little Gary both treat him without courtesy. Little Gary directly calls him by his first name. You, on the other hand, completely ignored him. I'm having a hard time stuck in between the both of you."

"Grace! I am not treating him this way because I hate him. I just feel that it's unfair for you," Alice said with a smile.

"He didn't know it either," Grace began to reason. "It was an accident."

"Alright. I won't be so rude to him from now on," Alice said. "But I don't think I can get close with him either. I don't like him as a person. He is too arrogant."

"Aren't you arrogant too?" Grace said, smiling.

"Me?" Alice was stunned and shook her head. "I'm not arrogant. I'm pedantic."

"Oof—" Grace was amused by her declaration.

Alice stepped forward and hugged her. "Grace, I really wish you well. Most importantly, he treats you well. That's all I could ask for."

"I know," Grace nodded and patted her hand. "What about you? How are you with Jensen?"

"He is taking good care of me in every aspect, no matter how trivial the matter is," Alice sincerely said. "He is a good person, warm and gentle. But I don't know why, maybe I am sensitive, I feel that there's a boundary between me and Jensen."
