At that moment, Heinz's mind went blank. He could not hear anything.
He held his cell phone without saying a word. He didn't know what to say either.
Jensen asked in concern, "Heinz, are you alright?"
Heinz still didn't speak. It seemed that he had lost the ability to speak and he was rooted to the spot.
Little Gary and Ernest sensed that something was wrong with him because a heavy silence fell upon the room all of a sudden.
Noticing the change in Heinz's expression, Little Gary secretly peeped at him. He wanted to know what had happened.
He saw that Heinz's face had darkened. Moreover, he heard him mention a man named Lawrence.
Who was Lawrence?
Little Gary was puzzled. He looked at Ernest and asked in a low voice, "Do you know who Lawrence is?"
Ernest nodded and replied to him in a low voice too, "I know, it's Heinz's father, our grandfather."
Little Gary froze and looked at Ernest. He spat and said, "Lawrence is your grandfather?"
Ernest pointed to him and said, "He is also your grandfather. Although you refuse to admit it, it's still a fact."
Little Gary continued to say, "Lowell Jones, did you hear him say that name?"
Ernest nodded and said, "I heard it, 'Lowell Jones' and 'Lawrence Jones'. That's what he said."
Little Gary's eyes widened and he figured it out in an instant.
"Lowell's last name is Jones; that is exactly the same as yours and Heinz's. Is it possible that Lowell is also Heinz's son?"
Ernest instantaneously shook his head and said, "How is that possible? Didn't you hear that Lowell called us his 'nephews' and he called Dad 'brother'?"
"Then, is Lowell the child of Lawrence?" Little Gary pondered. That idea immediately came to his mind. He tried to interpret the information they had got like a little detective.
Ernest was also stunned. He thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be possible."
When they looked at Heinz again, he had already stood up with a gloomy expression.
He walked towards the bedroom without saying a word. Apparently, he didn't want Little Gary and Ernest to listen to the conversation.
However, his leaving aroused their curiosity even more.
Little Gary instantly frowned and said, "It seems that the genes of the Jones family are very strong. Lawrence leads a dissolute lifestyle and so does Heinz. He is a two-timer. Being a fickle man, he just can't live without women."
