"My mommy's elder sister," Little Gary answered.
Old Master Carter's brow creased as he glanced at Grace with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Why did almost all the big families have such fights among them?
How could sisters frame each other like that? This elder sister of hers was too vicious.
There was a delayed hesitation in the old man's eyes as he glanced at Grace.
Grace didn't answer him, but her tacit expression confirmed everything.
Little Gary had spoken a little too fast. Even Grace felt that it was too embarrassing to say something like that.
Old Man Carter had experienced a lot in life, thus he had encountered all kinds of situations. He could notice Grace's helplessness for having her scandal being mentioned in front of elders.
"That's why." The old man added, "When I first saw Ernest, I felt that this child was like Heinz, but he said otherwise."
"Grandpa," Heinz stopped him. "This is already a done deal. We just need to do the test again. We've arranged for another day for Grace and Ernest to confirm their relation, just in case."
"You don't have to," Old Man Carter said in a low voice. "I have already asked the butler to send all the cups you've used for the test. The results will be out soon." "It has already been delivered for the test?" Grace was shocked. "When did it happen?"
Heinz narrowed his eyes and recalled carefully. Suddenly, a memory flashed across his mind.
It was the day when he received Ernest's report when Grandpa's butler went to the genetic lab. That day, he sneakily brought a black bag. Hence, it turned out that he had this plan.
B*stard.
Grandpa was the one who did it.
He glanced at his grandfather's butler.
The butler lowered his head as soon as he met Heinz's eyes. He didn't dare to look at him again, fearing that Heinz's glance would kill him there and then.
Heinz frowned and glared at the butler unhappily for a moment. Then, he reverted his gaze at Old Master Carter. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
"Old man, if you wanted to test it, you should have let us know. What kind of gentleman are you?"
"I don't care about my reputation," Old Master Carter said gruffly. "What I care about is whether Ernest is your son or not."
"You still can't do it sneakily," Heinz used a strong approach, and his tone was very dissatisfied.
"Would you cooperate with me if I don't do it discreetly?" Old Master Carter glanced at Grace, "Besides, if I bring it up and Grace doesn't want you anymore, you'll find trouble with me again."
Heinz was flustered for a moment. There was a possibility that that would happen.
"Look, you know it very well yourself." The old man spread out his hands, saying, "Grace, look at his face. In fact, he seems to be frightened."
Grace didn't know what to say, thus she just grinned.
"You are really an officious old man," Heinz said in a deep voice.
"You have to thank me," Old Master Carter said. "Right now, I'm checking your genes. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for a long time if you request it now."
"That's true." Little Gary echoed. "Old man, you've finally done the right thing. I'll remember what you did this time."
"Call me Grandpa." Old Master Carter corrected Little Gary's appellation, "Do you think it's appropriate for you to address me as Old Man?"
"Why would it be inappropriate?" Little Gary snorted as he glanced at Heinz. "He also calls you that. It runs in the family so don't blame it on me."
What he meant was to blame it on Heinz.
Both Old Master Carter and Heinz were stupefied, looking slightly embarrassed.
Grace had no choice but to stop him, "Little Gary, don't be rude." "Yes, Mommy." Little Gary nodded but added, "But I think he likes it this way."
