True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 1062

Zayne wasn't upset when he heard Eamon's rant. Instead, he smiled faintly and agreed with his words.

Looking at his brother, he uttered, "Little Eamon, you finally said a useful sentence this whole early morning."

"Don't call me Little Eamon." Eamon immediately shouted, "And I did not only speak a sentence but several sentences."

Zayne shrugged and said, "A paragraph."

"That's more like it," Eamon nodded. Suddenly, he frowned again and said, "I don't understand at all. What happened? Why are our parents like this? I don't even know them anymore."

Zayne sighed, "Who would be able to fully understand another person in this world?"

Eamon frowned and looked at his brother in confusion.

"Even couples who have lived together for many years may not be able to understand each other fully. To figure out a person, one will need to be observant, tolerant, and most importantly, patient.

If you don't have enough patience to accept another person, it is better not to get married." Zayne explained.

Zayne's words confused Eamon.

He looked at his brother as his brows twisted into a knot, "What is going on with you Zayne? You're sounding like my philosophy teacher. Can you be more straightforward?"

"Fine, I'll be straightforward." Zayne said, "Dad doesn't love mom enough, but mom loves dad too much. They don't have tolerance for each other. This drama called life is never-ending, so they might as well separate, understand?"

"How come we're talking about love now? Isn't Grace's appearance the reason?" Eamon was even more confused, "You guys are confusing me. What is the reason for the divorce?"

"Because of love," Zayne answered softly.

"You mean, dad doesn't love mom?" Eamon asked.

"Do you think he loves her very much?" Zayne asked him back.

"Maybe," Eamon said, "I don't think he doesn't love mom."

"But does he love her deeply?" Zayne asked again.

"Isn't it the same for other families?" Eamon looked at his brother and said, "I think they have a good relationship. Besides, Dad is very courteous to Mom, and Mom also respects Dad very much. Isn't this a good husband and wife relationship?

We've lived together for so many years and I have always felt blessed living in this family. So I think the divorce is caused by Grace's appearance in addition to Mom's anxiety lately." Eamon explained. "What does it have to do with her?" Zayne replied rationally, "Grace is just a trigger."

"Then it's still because of her," Eamon said.

"External factors do not play a role in the change, it's the internal factors that are the key to determining the development of things. What are you doing in philosophy class?" Zayne muttered. "This is about our family. How is it related to philosophy?" Eamon was puzzled.

"Eamon, your life has been smooth sailing, so you won't consider too many factors and think the best of everything." Zayne pointed out.

"I am living a very happy life and I feel that we are a happy family. Don't you think your life is the same too?" Eamon asked.

"That's because you're not the eldest son, so you don't have to bear the responsibility of this family," Zayne was still rather patient, "The real problem is their marriage, not because of Grace. If they loved and believed in each other deeply, things wouldn't end up like today. There is already a problem existing between themselves, that's why they decided to divorce."

"If my guess is right, Zayne, you're trying to put a good word for our sister who we've never met, aren't you?" Eamon assumed.

"I'm merely stating the facts." Zayne lowered his voice, "No matter when, don't become hysterical when the decisions you made changed their course or didn't turn out as you wish; don't vent your anger on others because your choices didn't happen as you expected.

Especially, don't do anything to harm others just because things didn't go your way. An unscrupulous life like that will only make you look very ugly and unbearable. Life is made up of hard work, and happiness is obtained with sincerity. If you don't have a strong heart, then don't get married, don't fall in love."

"Brother, are you lecturing me?" Eamon asked with a surprised frown.

Zayne stared at him for a while and said, "No, I'm probably lecturing a pig."

Eamon's eyes widened, "Zayne, how dare you. Are you calling me stupid?"

Zayne was speechless. He felt that calling his brother stupid now had become an insult to the word.

"You're not stupid, you're simple-minded," Zayne said as he patted him on the shoulder.

Eamon immediately pushed his brother's hand away and protested, "Don't think that I don't know simple-minded means stupid. You're still trying to say that I'm stupid."

Zayne laughed as a glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, "If you can understand this, then you are not that stupid after all."

"I'm not stupid," Eamon said, "I just don't want our parents to divorce, and I don't want to be a child whose parents are divorced. I know the reason you said so much is so that I won't hate Grace. I never did. I just don't understand why our parents would divorce after she appeared."

"Mom is not smart enough," Zayne said, "She wants too much."

"But all she wants is Dad's love." Eamon defended his mother. He felt that his mother really loved his father, so doesn't she deserve his father's love in return?

"To ask a person who is stingy with love to give all his love, that itself is not a wise choice," Zayne said.

"Although I don't want to admit that what you said today is meaningful, Zayne, I have to agree that it is true. Alright, I won't care anymore." Eamon sat down on the side of the bed and said, "Marriage is a matte between them. I only hope that Mom and Dad will not be hurt."

"A beautiful wish, but the reality is cruel." Zayne once again dispelled his thought, "If you don't want to be hurt, you have to make yourself strong. If you're weak, harm will come knocking on your door. You can't blame anyone but yourself."

Eamon said, "You're saying everyone deserves it?"

"That's right," Zayne answered.

Eamon retorted, "You deserve a beating, Zayne."

Zayne frowned.

"I want to slap you right now, right in the face." Eamon's eyes were red. "They are our parents. How can you be so calm?"

Zayne remained silent.

He had seen enough acting, enough scenes of them respecting each other like they are guests. He just felt that his parents needed disengagement.

All he could do was to help.

Give each other a space to figure out what they needed. Only then they could understand themselves better and live a better life.

However, his little brother could not accept this.

He thought that he could not deprive his younger brother of his rights, either. What Eamon wished and desired was for his parents to be together. "Eamon, it's up to you. You have your rights. It's your choice to do whatever you want." Zayne said.

After saying this, he turned to open the door and saw his mother standing there, staring blankly.
