True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 472

As soon as the little fellow spoke, everyone looked at him.

Grace had wanted to stop him several times, but she knew in her heart that Gary was protecting her and Ernest.

He didn't like to see his mother being questioned. Children would often notice if someone was being impolite to their mother.

It was even more so for Gary, who was a sensitive child.

Grace was moved by her son's intentions to protect her. Although she opened her mouth, she didn't say anything.

Heinz smiled and agreed with his son very much. "My son is right."

Mrs. Hudson was not angry. There was a smile on her face as she looked at Little Gary. She insisted on the question she had asked earlier. "Are you two really twins?"

Little Gary looked at Mrs. Hudson and said, "Grandma, you've been asking us if we're twins. Why does it matter?"

Mrs. Hudson was taken aback. She turned her gaze from Little Gary to Ernest. Her mixed feelings were clearly shown on her face. "I'm just curious. After all, you two look alike."

"Well, we have the same father so it's only natural for us to look alike. I've already told you just now," Little Gary said lightly. "It doesn't make any sense to tell you if we are twins or not. Both me and Ernest are separate people. We're brothers."

Ernest, who had been very quiet the whole time, suddenly began to speak, "Gary, Mrs. Hudson has been asking if we are twins. I think she has her reasons."

"I think she just wants to remind our mommy." Little Gary looked into Ernest's eyes. He was very intelligent and had made an acute judgment. "Or perhaps, she thinks that our mommy is not compatible with Heinz. Maybe she thinks that this aunt who only knows how to cry is compatible with him. However, she can't say that out loud. Am I right, Mrs. Hudson?"

No matter how calm Mrs. Hudson tried to be, she began to feel irritated by the two children.

What the hell just happened?

The two children were as cunning as elves.

Hearing what Little Gary said, the mood in the living room worsened.

Old Master Carter picked up his cup of tea and remained silent.

Mrs. Hudson looked at him and said, "William, they're really smart."

"Old lady, they're just children. There's no need for you to take it to heart," Old Master Carter finally spoke.

Mrs. Hudson didn't seem angry; she looked calm. "Yes, it's just a joke. Of course, I won't take it seriously."

"Serve the tea," William ordered the butler.

"Yes, sir!" The butler said.

The butler quickly served Mrs. Hudson and Claris with cups of tea.

"William, we can't take a child's words seriously. However, you're an adult, should we take what you said seriously?" Mrs. Hudson looked at Old Master Carter, her gaze not blinking for a second. The corner of his lips curled into a smile as a thought suddenly entered his mind. "Old lady, I've said a lot. I wonder what you're referring to?"

"What else can it be?" Mrs. Hudson asked. "Of course it's the marriage of our grandchildren."

William was stunned for a moment. He knew that it would not be easy to resolve the matter.

Hearing that, Claris was filled with vigor all of a sudden. Her red, teary eyes lit up.

On the contrary, when Grace heard it, her shining eyes drooped. It seemed that they had really wanted Heinz and Claris to be together. Thanks to her, that marriage could happen.

Alas.

Claris was truly pitiful.

However, although Grace sympathized with her, she was not sorry.

When Heinz saw Grace looking down, he felt a pain in his heart. He looked at his grandfather solemnly. He did not say anything but just looked at him. Old Master Carter knew why Heinz was looking at him.

He smiled and said, "Old lady, we did mention it at that time, but we're in a free society. They can pursue their marriage freely. We naturally have to let go."

"William," Mrs. Hudson laughed lightly with a hint of sarcasm. "Back then, you were the one who suggested this."

"That's true," William couldn't deny it. He admitted, "I was the one who brought it up, but I didn't know what would happen to them. Now, it seems like this cannot happen."

"Oh, I knew you would say that." Mrs. Hudson's eyes swept over Heinz's face. "I came here for the same reason. It's not like Claris can't replace another man, why does she have to grieve like this?" "That's right. Claris is a very good child. She is both decent in appearance and personality," Old Master Carter said.

"Grandmother, I won't let this go," Claris said. She thought her grandmother was about to give up so anxiety flooded her heart.

As she spoke, everyone was looking at her.

Even the children curled their lips.

Mrs. Hudson felt embarrassed.

"Claris," Mrs. Hudson glanced at Claris unhappily. "Can you sit quietly and rest for a while?"

Claris's eyes filled with tears again.

"Claris is a good girl," Old Master Carter said. "I'm so sorry."

"His vision must be poor," Little Gary suddenly said. "Shouldn't we get Heinz's grandfather a pair of glasses if he doesn't have good eyesight?"

"How was she a good child?" He thought to himself. She was simply a girl who was unreasonable.

She was in a hurry to look for a man. In her pursuit, she chased after a man even though it was off limits.

"Heinz's grandfather?" Repeated Mrs. Hudson. She looked at the little guy and said, "Little guy, you have bad manners. What did your mommy teach you? When adults speak, you are not allowed to interrupt, understand?"

Grace was a little embarrassed. Obviously, she was talking about her.

Heinz's heart ached and he frowned unhappily.

Little Gary interrupted her just as Heinz was about to speak. "Mrs. Hudson, since you would like to talk about manners, let's discuss it."

"Sure." A mocking smile appeared on Mrs. Hudson's lips.

"Today, my mommy came to see Heinz's grandfather. Yet you, an outsider, came to him on such an important day. When you noticed the situation, you didn't even try to avoid it. Instead you came in and talked about the engagement between your granddaughter and Heinz. Aren't you the one causing trouble for others?"

"My mommy is kind-hearted enough to ask you to take a seat. Who knew you really would have sat down. Did your family teach you to behave this way?" Gary said.

He looked straight into Mrs. Hudson's eyes.

"Who gave you the right to look down on us? Do you really think that if Heinz didn't marry my mother, he would marry your granddaughter? Since you yourself do not practice proper manners, you shouldn't tell me how to behave," Gary said.

Grace wanted to stop Gary from speaking but she knew he was just protecting her.

Even Ernest held her hand, reassuring her.

"We might lack some manners, but we won't enter without an invitation," Gary reiterated.

Gary didn't speak too fast nor too slow. Every single word hit its mark.

William rubbed his nose and lowered his head. However, he could not hide the smile on his face.

Mrs. Hudson, on the other hand, was furious.

She stood up immediately and was about to retort.

However, Little Gary spoke before her, "Old lady, please don't get up too fast. Even if you're in a hurry to go back, you don't have to stand up so abruptly. Your bones are weak. You may fall down and sustain serious injuries. Besides, you're wearing a nice outfit. Even if your bones turn out to be fine, if you act too rashly and destroy the outfit, it will be embarrassing for your skin to be revealed."
