True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 819

Gary's shoulders instantly drooped hearing what his mother had said. He looked at her with a sad expression and his bright eyes flashed with unwillingness. He pondered, "How could Mommy speak to me in this way? She's so fierce!"

He curled his lips and lowered his head to eat silently. He wasn't going to say anything more.

Regardless, he still refused to call Heinz 'dad'.

Seeing him turn despondent made Grace realize that she might have made him anxious with the way she spoke to him. However, she didn't like Gary's attitude one bit.

Therefore, she did not speak further nor did she attempt to persuade him. She simply ate her own meal in silence.

Ernest, who was next to Gary, leaned over and whispered, "Gary, what's wrong with calling him 'dad'? It's not like we're asking you to call a man who has no blood relation to you as your father, are we? I really don't understand why you are so stubborn and refuse to even call him 'dad'."

Gary said coldly, "What do you know? Stop trying to talk to me about this and keep your focus on what you really need to get done."

Jensen and Alice both turned to look at him.

When the two of them saw that he was not willing to give in despite being outcasted, they sighed and neither of them spoke again.

Of course, no one had forced him to do so since then.

In the study room.

Heinz answered his father's call.

His attitude towards his father became all the more indifferent the second he stepped into the study room. "It's been two years since you last called me. Who or what reminded you of me, Dad?" He asked in a husky disinterested tone.

The man on the other side didn't know how to respond to him.

Heinz chuckled and said in an even colder tone, "I really don't know why you're calling me now. If you need me to do anything, just say it directly. Don't waste our time on the phone."

"Are you married?" His father asked.

Heinz received a call when he was getting his marriage certificate in the courthouse the other day. Now that his father had called again, his expression changed drastically. He asked furiously, "How do you know? Are you spying on me?"

"What do you mean by 'spying on¹ you? You speak so harshly. Is it wrong for me, as a father, to care about my son's marriage?" The old man's faint voice came from the other end of the phone with a hint of displeasure, as if he was blaming Heinz for his outspokenness.

Heinz sneered and said, "We haven't cared about each other for so many years. Why do we have to start doing it all of a sudden?"

"And your concern at this moment makes me feel very uncomfortable. I don't need your care. I don't need any of it."

Heinz thought about his father leaving, "What has he contributed since? Nothing!"

When his father left, everything had come to an end. He hadn't seen his father for many years.

His father smiled gently and continued to say, "Well, even if you are angry because of what I have done all those years ago, to me, you are still my son. Over the years, I have been worried about you all the time."

"Really?" Heinz asked sarcastically. Of course, he wouldn't believe it, because if his father

really cared about him, he wouldn't end up like that and his mother wouldn't have left him with such hatred.

Therefore, Heinz would definitely not believe the so- called 'concern' his father suddenly had over his well-being.
