Timothy originally thought that his wife might have some prejudice towards Grace. Thus, he didn't want Quinn to pay much attention to her. That was because Grace's existence was a kind of reminder of the past feelings in his heart.

He felt so sorry for his daughter, and he didn't want her to be disturbed by anyone.

He just wanted to take care of her, love her, and not cause trouble for her.

As such, he hadn't introduced his wife, Quinn, and the two children to Grace all this time. He thought that she might not be eager to meet them.

It was just that Quinn had always been very generous and had always taken the initiative to talk about his daughter with him. At first, he had been very worried, but recently, he found that his wife really cared for her, and he started to waver.

If they could accept each other, it would be great for everyone.

He nodded and looked at his wife, "Well, I'll talk to her this time. After her pregnancy is stable, let's go to see her together."

"Alright, I won't go with you this time, but I'm also very eager to see her. She is going to give birth soon but there's no support from her mother's side; it must be tough for her," Quinn sighed. "Maybe I can help with the prenatal preparations when I go over."

Timothy squinted his eyes.

The two words "mother's side" really stabbed his heart deeply. He felt very guilty and lowered his head. He sighed, "She gave birth to two children at a very young age. We can't imagine how strong she is." "That's why I don't want her to suffer again this time," Quinn looked at her husband. Seeing him being so distressed, she smiled and her face was slightly pale.

"Let's wait a little longer," he said. "We can't be hasty."

"Okay, whatever you say." She sighed, not knowing whether it was intentional or not.

He didn't care.

He was about to leave.

She stopped him, "Timothy, don't go first. I bought a lot of fruit for our sons. Since you are visiting Grace today, bring some for her. She should eat something good." "No need." He shook his head. "I'll buy some myself." "Of course you have to buy some. These fruits are my blessings. Bring them with you as well," she insisted. "I'll pack them for you."

She packed a large basket of fruits, which was perfectly wrapped.

Timothy was stunned. Seeing his wife carrying the fruits into the car, he was very touched.

"Go ahead." Quinn wiped the sweat on her forehead and said, "Go greet her. Tell her to walk carefully and don't fall down. Always be in a good mood. The children born will then be healthy." "Thank you." He was still very emotional. Perhaps people at his age appreciated understanding and support.

"You, don't be so polite with me," she laughed. "Go ahead."

"Okay." He then drove off.

She watched her husband leaving, deep in thought.

At the Jones family home.

Timothy arrived, and the butler went to the door to greet him personally.

He brought a lot of food for Grace, all of which were premium supplements and imported fruits.

The butler ordered the servants to carry them into

the house.

Timothy went to the living room with her.

The butler placed the fruits in the pantry and instructed, "Report these to Madam Grace, No one is allowed to move these things."

"Butler, the president told us not to eat anything that anyone sent. Are these really for Madam Grace?" The servants asked.

"No, the food given to Madam Grace has to be carefully selected so that there won't be any problem," ordered the Butler. "Without my permission, no one is allowed to touch the food here."

"Yes!"

Soon, the butler served tea for Grace and Timothy.

Since she was pregnant, she couldn't drink tea. Hence, the butler ordered someone to make her some fruit smoothie.

Timothy drank the tea and said to her, "When I came, Aunt Quinn was particularly concerned about you. She brought you a basket of fruits and told me to remind you to be careful and not to fall down!" She was taken aback for a moment, and she nodded immediately, "Please thank Aunt Quinn for me. I will be careful."

"I also bought you some tonics. I don't know what you like to eat. There are a lot of fruits. I think you would like them."

"Thank you," she thanked him again.

She was always so polite that Timothy did not know how to start a topic. He gazed at her in silence.

The father and daughter, who had never really had much interaction before, were in an awkward situation. It felt like something was missing.

Grace did not have much to say to her father either.

At last, Timothy broke the silence. He looked at her and said, "I heard that your sister has already taken charge of Sunny Group, and she is doing quite well. Now that Sunny Group is a lot more stable, your sister has gradually proved that she has the ability to take over the company."

Yes, Alice had been managing Sunny Group for two months. With the help of Heinz, she had adapted slowly.

"She's still learning," Grace stated softly. "She's been so busy that she hasn't had the time to come over. It's been two or three weeks since her last visit, and she looks exhausted."

"She's doing much better than Marry." He looked at her and said, "I heard something about your sister yesterday, so I came to share it with you." "My sister?" She was a little surprised and worried, "What's the matter?"

"It's not something bad," Timothy said. "Your sister has won the hearts of the old management staff in Sunny Group one by one. More than half of them are siding with her now."

"Oh, I really don't know about this," Grace smiled. "Heinz and Alice don't really tell me about these things. Maybe they don't want me to be worried."

"Did I make a mistake, telling you this?" Timothy became a little anxious. He came here to share happy news, thinking that he could give her some peace of mind. After all, her sister had done a good job. It was obvious that he was really worried about her. She shook her head and comforted him. "I'm not as fragile as you think."

"They were right to worry about you. You're now pregnant, so the most important thing is taking care of the babies in your tummy," he realized and regretted that although he had tried to be considerate, he wasn't attentive enough.

"I want to know how my sister is doing. It's great that she can take charge of everything by herself. What I worry about is that there is too much assistance from Heinz. If she relies on him too much, will she be able to stand on her own in future?" Grace also really wanted Alice to be independent, "She has sacrificed too much to stand out in the business field."

"You can rest assured," Timothy said. "Heinz is helping her, and so am I. And there is Jensen. He is a policeman with high alertness and defensive capabilities. Alice is not alone now."
