"Don't just start leaving like that first." Little Gary immediately pushed her towards the bed. "Sit down. Let's have a chat first."

"Weren't you exhausted just now?" Maria asked. "You don't seem to enjoy talking very much since you didn't like to answer my questions, so let's replace my daddy first. I really can't wait to see him." "Just sit down," he said in a serious manner. "Don't be so impatient."

"Of course I'm feeling impatient." she sounded anxious. "I can't wait to replace my daddy as I've never seen him before."

"The problem is that I don't know who your daddy is," Little Gary shouted as well, "Can you stop being so impatient?"

"Why did you lie to me just now if you didn't know who he was?" Maria stared at him with her eyes wide open, "You just said you knew him."

"Did I say that?" He felt like he was about to faint, "I didn't say that, did I?"

"Yes, you did." She sounded confident.

"Did I say that, Ernest?" Little Gary looked at him.

Ernest nodded and said, "You said you knew her daddy must still be alive."

"What?" Little Gary slapped himself on the forehead and looked at the ceiling while talking to himself, "All I've said were those words, but I didn't say anything else. All I did was guess that he didn't pass away yet, but how would I know who he is? Furthermore, wouldn't your mommy be the one who knows who he is instead of me?"

"Little Gary, can you please talk properly? I don't understand a single thing you just said." Maria frowned and complained.

He was speechless again. "I didn't say anything just now okay, and yet you're trying so hard to torment me now. Maria Attwood, did I owe you in our previous lives, and that's why you've come to torment me in this life?"

"Little Gary, don't bring in matters regarding our past lives when we haven't sorted out our current lives," she frowned again. "So do you know where on earth my daddy is?" "No, I don't know," he replied.

Maria was startled as her eyes reddened, "Why does no one know about my daddy's whereabouts?"

"That's either because your mommy herself doesn't know who he is, or she doesn't want you to know who he is," Little Gary tried to analyze.

Just like how his own mommy didn't know who his father was previously.

Only after she noticed the similarities in their looks and conducted some DNA testing could they finally confirm it.

"So does my mommy know about it or not?"

"I'm afraid you'll have to ask your mommy instead of us."

Maria thought about it seriously and stared at the ceiling with her eyes that were still red.

"My daddy must be a coward," Maria finally came to a conclusion after a long time. "The same goes for my mommy."

"You're right," Little Gary exclaimed. "Yeah, they must be the same kind of person. Similarities help people get attracted to one another, get it?"

"What did you mean by that again?" Maria began asking another one of her many questions again.

"That just means they're all stupid." Little Gary was losing his patience already, "I'm done with this question."

"That's because you don't know how to answer me, isn't it?" She complained, "That's why you should stop pretending that you're so smart and capable in front of me." He rolled his eyes.

Ernest also couldn't help but laugh, "Gary, Maria is starting to look down on you already."

"Maria!" Little Gary yelled.

"Why are you so loud?" She yelled back at him, "Did you really think that yelling at me would increase your capability?"

Eavesdropping on their conversation, Grace almost choked on her lamb skewers. After waiting for a while, she heard Little Gary shouting, "Your daddy is probably just as blur and stupid as Old Heinz." "Why?" Maria asked straightforwardly.

Ernest took over this round of questioning. "Because for someone like Daddy, it's too stupid for him to not know about our existence. My brother is probably against addressing him as 'daddy' due to this." "Then why did you address him as daddy?" Maria asked him as she was confused about it, "I heard it just now."

"Because I grew up by my daddy's side ever since I was young!" Ernest replied, "As for my brother, he grew up by Mommy's side. In fact, we actually just started living together not long ago."

"Then isn't your mommy idiotic as well? Little Gary and Ernest, I pity you two so much since both of your parents are so stupid!" Maria stared at them pitifully as she sighed. "I can't believe you two were split up since twins are meant to be raised together. That's so stupid of them!"

Outside, Grace was triggered to the point she started coughing, but she quickly covered her mouth to prevent the children from being able to hear her.

Heinz patted her back gently to let her breath properly.

After she finally calmed down, she whispered to him, "Their conversation is so infuriating."

He merely shrugged it off, "I'm already used to it."

"Aren't you upset at all?" She was very shocked.

"Is there a point in getting upset? It's not like I can start beating him up, but I really do feel triggered to do so if it wasn't for the fact that I did not raise him up for the past few years," Heinz knew better than to act on his impulses.

"Even if I allowed you to, do you really dare to lay a finger on him?" She frowned.

Heinz's heart skipped a beat and thought to himself, "Did I just upset this woman?"

He immediately answered Grace who no longer looked pleasant, "Of course not, even if I could beat him, I wouldn't have the heart to do so either."

She finally calmed down slightly, "Heinz, it's fine to be stern when you want to discipline the children, but you can never hit them. Do you understand me?" "Yes, my dear wife, I understand," he quickly responded. "Don't be angry, it was just a joke."

"You're always joking. Has there ever been a point in your life where you weren't so carefree?" Grace asked him indifferently.

"Just like what our son said, he didn't want to start calling me "dad" since I'm stupid," Heinz laughed about it.

Grace instantly lost her temper. She sighed, but just as she was about to say something, she overheard Little Gary talking again.

"I know right, isn't my mommy stupid?" He sighed, "If Mommy was smart, she wouldn't have been late and let someone else take over her spot."

"What did you mean by that again?" Maria would never stop asking.

He directly ignored that question.

"Ernest, please answer me instead. I know that Little Gary is not as smart as you." she decided to change her target.

Ernest said, "It meant that someone else was earlier than my mommy. Maria, I hope that your daddy is not a player like our dad, otherwise that would be embarrassing for you. Let's hope that your mommy will quickly bring you to go meet your daddy."

Outside, Heinz felt so done with life.

He couldn't believe that both his sons, even Ernest who was always so well-behaved, despised him.
