True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 473

"William Carter!" Mrs. Hudson bellowed and her face was flushed red.

Old Master Carter immediately raised his eyes to look at her. "Yes, Old Lady?"

"You're really good. Your family is excellent." Mrs. Hudson glared at him harshly. William opened his mouth and said, "Yes, they're very eloquent."

"Hmph!" Mrs. Hudson snorted and turned to leave.

Claris followed closely behind. Just like that, they left.

The room was quiet.

There was nothing Grace could do. She looked at Heinz and then at the children.

Little Gary did not apologize. His expression was calm.

Ernest was smiling. Like Heinz, Little Gary's actions made him happy.

Suddenly, the old master's deep laughter echoed in the living room. He laughed heartily.

Everyone in the room looked at him. They didn't know what was going on.

Heinz shrugged helplessly.

Outside the house, Mrs. Hudson, who had taken just a few steps, was wallowing in regret. She had never been defeated before, yet she had just been verbally abused by a child.

William, on the other hand, was laughing like a madman.

Mrs. Hudson was treated like a joke.

She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, then she promptly left.

Back inside the house, Grace had no clue why the old man was laughing. She found his behaviour rather odd.

Meanwhile, Little Gary stroked the puppy he held in his arms.

"Good boy," praised William as he slapped the table.

"What a good kid."

Grace looked at Heinz in confusion.

What did Grandpa mean by that?

"Grandpa is laughing in happiness," he explained. "He is sincerely praising Gary. For the past few years, Grandfather has never gained any benefit from Mrs. Hudson. He has always been lectured and nagged at by Mrs. Hudson. Now that Mrs. Hudson has been put in her place by our son, Grandfather is very happy."

"Yes," Old Master Carter couldn't help but smile. "That's exactly it. I've never been so happy in my life. Ah, I'm so glad."

Little Gary looked at the happy smile on Old Master Carter's face and pouted. "So you finally got to release your pent-up hatred."

"That's right," Old Master Carter said in a low voice. "I've been holding back my anger for a long time and now I'm finally able to let loose."

"Well, it's not that you couldn't do it," said Little Gary as he stared straight at the old man. "The truth is you enjoy her warmth and company. At such an advanced age, how can you still smile when you can't even manage something as simple as this?"

Old Master Carter was at a loss for words. "Why are you so infuriating?"

"That's just the way I am," Little Gary said. "If you won't admit it, it's fine."

"Call me great grandfather," Old Master

Carter immediately demanded.

"I'm hungry," said Little Gary, evading his request. "Let's eat. Shall we eat?"

"Let's eat," The old man said. "Of course we should eat."

Little Gary pulled Ernest away to wash their hands.

Old Master Carter watched them leave. Then, he shot Grace a smile. He said sincerely, "You have a good son. He doesn't let anyone bully you and knows when to take action. He's really excellent."

Grace smiled awkwardly and remained silent.

After all, being argumentative was not exactly commendable.

"I'll make sure they wash their hands," Grace said and left quickly.

After she left, Heinz opened his mouth to speak, saying, "Grandpa, you made my son clean up the mess you created. Yet here you are smiling and laughing."

"You provoked her too. Claris is your problem," Old Master Carter said. "I might have offended Mrs. Hudson thoroughly this time."
