Gary Smith paused and put down the fork in his hand. He looked at his mother and suddenly said something that shocked Grace Smith thoroughly.

"That's because my father thought that Mommy would protect herself. He didn't expect her to not only fail to protect herself, but also insisted on giving birth to me. It was a one-night affair, that you and auntie were talking about just now, which made you pregnant."

Alice Smith was also stunned by his words, her mouth hanging. The mouthful of food she was chewing was almost falling out of her mouth.

She suddenly came to her senses and exclaimed in dismay, "My god, my nephew, you understood such a profound truth! You are really my idol."

Gary sat up straight and continued to eat unhurriedly, maintaining the image of a calm and wise man.

On the other hand, Grace put down her fork, and put her hand on her forehead. She sighed. "I don't know if it's a blessing or a misfortune to have such a smart little son!" "Mommy, do you regret giving birth to me?" Gary looked at Grace. His big eyes made him look very innocent, especially when he looked at her like this.

Grace sighed in her heart. This child really knew how to make use of his advantage and pretend to be cute all the time. Moreover, his cuteness gave off a rather cool vibe! "Mommy would never regret it," Grace said. "Just study hard and make money for me. I have not made a lot of money in my life. I can only rely on you, son."

Gary nodded, and a thoughtful and worried look flashed across his cold face. He asked, "Mommy, are you short of money?"

"Yes, Sister, are we short of money again?" Alice chimed in.

"No, we don't lack money for normal expenses, but we don't have a lot," Grace said, "You two, study well and earn money to be filial to me."

Just then, the phone rang.

Grace immediately went to answer the phone.

As soon as she looked at the phone, she realized it was from Heinz Jones.

Grace picked it up and said, "Hello."

"Did your sister go to see you?" Heinz asked directly on the phone.

Grace rolled her eyes and asked, "Mr. Jones, did you call just to ask this matter?"

"Of course," Heinz said calmly.

"No." Grace's eyes flashed a cunning look. "You lost the bet."

"Haha!" Heinz's laughter came from the other side with a touch of irony, scoffing at her lying tone. He said, "Grace, you will become Pinocchio if you lie."

Grace was stunned. This was what she had told him before.

Grace had no choice but to say, "Well, you guessed right. She did come."

"It seems that I won." He smiled more happily.

"Yes." Grace said, "You won."

Heinz asked with a smile, "Are you well-prepared for my winnings?"

Grace's eyelids twitched instantly. She only felt that his request would not be an ordinary one.

It was impossible that he would just want a kiss.

Is it possible that he would just want kissing for three minutes? She thought.

She was silent for a moment and felt stuck. She said, "There is nothing to prepare for. I have excellent skills and qualities, definitely more experienced than you are!"

"What?" He gritted his teeth. He could not believe her playful words.

"I would not mind if you want to call me as your 'Big Sister'," Grace said.

Heinz snorted and said, "In your dreams! You can only be my woman."

Little Gary and Alice were staring at Grace all the while, and it made her a little embarrassed to be on the phone. She coughed and cleared her throat, and her face was still red for no reason. She said, "Well, this is still yet to be confirmed."

"Grace." Heinz immediately noticed and asked, "Is there someone else beside you?"

Grace was stunned and looked at her son and sister. With a flash of light in her eyes, she said, "No."

As for Little Gary's matter, she would have to wait for the results of the test to be revealed. She would decide how to talk about it by then.

If the child was not Heinz's, Grace would have to be careful when she spoke about Little Gary. Being his girlfriend, could he accept that she had given birth to someone else's child?

If the child was his, everything would fall into place.

She just asked herself in her heart, "When did I become so worrisome?"

"Didn't he just walk into my heart in just a few days?"

No.

She should not be so affected.

However, Heinz clearly felt that something was wrong with her. She seemed to be a little absentminded.

"Grace, get ready. I'm looking forward to my winnings tomorrow."

She froze and she blushed again. She replied, "Alright. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

Heinz fell silent and felt sorrowful.

If there was no one around her, would she talk like this?

She was even in a hurry to hang up the phone.

Heinz frowned and asked, "Are you looking forward "No." After she said that, she said coldly again, "I'm hanging up the phone. I haven't eaten yet."

to it?"

"Err, okay." Heinz didn't pester her any more.

Grace ended the call. After a moment of silence, she walked back to the dining table and continued to eat.

Holding the mobile phone in his hand, Heinz listened to the beeping tone after she hung up. There was no romance in her voice, and she seemed to be restrained when she spoke.

He frowned and looked puzzled. He muttered to himself, "If there was no one else around, but she sounded distant and upset. Was it because she was irritated by Marry, or because she was reminiscing about Simon?"

Thinking about how unscrupulous Simon was in front of Grace in his office, Heinz frowned deeply. He thought that his reduction of three percentage points was too few, he should have viciously reduced their profit share to 20%!

He sat down in the study room and looked outside.

The phone rang. He picked up the phone and asked, "What is it?"

Jensen Charm's voice rang out. "By the way, what's Grace's phone number?"

"What do you want it for?"

"Of course, I have something to do with it." Jensen said, "Don't worry. I know I'm not supposed to talk much to my brother's woman. I really have something to ask her."

"What is it?" "I have a piece of news to publish, for a missing person. Although she won't earn much from this, it is still better to let her make the money instead of others." Heinz snorted and said, "That is very considerate of you."

"That's right." Jensen smiled and said, "Tell me her phone number and I'll call her."

They hung up. Then Heinz sent the number to Jensen right after.

After dinner, Grace washed up, and then received a phone call from a stranger. She asked, "Who is it?"

"Grace," Jensen said, "I'm Jensen Charm."

"Officer Charm?" Grace was stunned. "How did you know my phone number?"

"It doesn't matter how. I have something important to talk about." He said quickly.

"Go ahead." Grace said.

Jensen explained the purpose of his call. "Well, come out early tomorrow morning. I live in Hart Villa District. You can come to the entrance of Hart Villa District at 7:30, and I'll give you the material and money, and you can send them to the newspaper office."

"Hart Villa District?" Grace was stunned for a moment. She only felt a buzz in her head. At that moment, her feelings were a jumbled mess!
