"William Carter!" Mrs. Hudson bellowed and her face was flushed red.

Old Master Carter immediately raised his eyes to look at her. "Yes, Old Lady?"

"You're really good. Your family is excellent." Mrs. Hudson glared at him harshly. William opened his mouth and said, "Yes, they're very eloquent."

"Hmph!" Mrs. Hudson snorted and turned to leave.

Claris followed closely behind. Just like that, they left.

The room was quiet.

There was nothing Grace could do. She looked at Heinz and then at the children.

Little Gary did not apologize. His expression was calm.

Ernest was smiling. Like Heinz, Little Gary's actions made him happy.

Suddenly, the old master's deep laughter echoed in the living room. He laughed heartily.

Everyone in the room looked at him. They didn't know what was going on.

Heinz shrugged helplessly.

Outside the house, Mrs. Hudson, who had taken just a few steps, was wallowing in regret. She had never been defeated before, yet she had just been verbally abused by a child. William, on the other hand, was laughing like a madman.

Mrs. Hudson was treated like a joke.

She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, then she promptly left.

Back inside the house, Grace had no clue why the old man was laughing. She found his behaviour rather odd.

Meanwhile, Little Gary stroked the puppy he held in his arms.

"Good boy," praised William as he slapped the table.

"What a good kid."

Grace looked at Heinz in confusion.

What did Grandpa mean by that?

"Grandpa is laughing in happiness," he explained. "He is sincerely praising Gary. For the past few years, Grandfather has never gained any benefit from Mrs. Hudson. He has always been lectured and nagged at by Mrs. Hudson. Now that Mrs. Hudson has been put in her place by our son, Grandfather is very happy."

"Yes," Old Master Carter couldn't help but smile. "That's exactly it. I've never been so happy in my life. Ah, I'm so glad."

Little Gary looked at the happy smile on Old Master Carter's face and pouted. "So you finally got to release your pent-up hatred."

"That's right," Old Master Carter said in a low voice. "I've been holding back my anger for a long time and now I'm finally able to let loose."

"Well, it's not that you couldn't do it," said Little Gary as he stared straight at the old man. "The truth is you enjoy her warmth and company. At such an advanced age, how can you still smile when you can't even manage something as simple as this?"

Old Master Carter was at a loss for words. "Why are you so infuriating?"

"That's just the way I am," Little Gary said. "If you won't admit it, it's fine."

"Call me great grandfather," Old Master

Carter immediately demanded.

"I'm hungry," said Little Gary, evading his request. "Let's eat. Shall we eat?"

"Let's eat," The old man said. "Of course we should eat."

Little Gary pulled Ernest away to wash their hands.

Old Master Carter watched them leave. Then, he shot Grace a smile. He said sincerely, "You have a good son. He doesn't let anyone bully you and knows when to take action. He's really excellent." Grace smiled awkwardly and remained silent.

After all, being argumentative was not exactly commendable.

"I'll make sure they wash their hands," Grace said and left quickly.

After she left, Heinz opened his mouth to speak, saying, "Grandpa, you made my son clean up the mess you created. Yet here you are smiling and laughing."

"You provoked her too. Claris is your problem," Old Master Carter said. "I might have offended Mrs. Hudson thoroughly this time."

"Does that even matter?" Heinz didn't take it seriously at all. "She won't marry you anyway. Why do you care about her?"

"We have been friends for decades," Old Master Carter said.

"Humph." Heinz snorted, indicating his dissatisfaction with the Hudson family.

"What are you snorting for?" Old Master Carter said, "She's been nice to you."

"It's because of my wealth. Don't you think that she would have turned around and left if I were a beggar instead?" Heinz said.

William thought for a while and sighed, "You're right. Most people are like that, aren't they?"

"So, Grandpa, stop doing such nonsense things in the future," Heinz said.

"Don't worry," William said. "Oh, you should go and take a look at Grace now. It was bad that Grace had to go through what had happened today." "You're aware of it, too?" Heinz asked.

"How could I not know? Women get jealous easily," the old man said. "Go and calm her down."

Satisfied, Heinz smiled slightly. He then walked to the bathroom.

Little Gary and Ernest had washed their hands. Grace was also done. They were all ready for dinner.

Seeing Heinz, Ernest immediately shouted, "Dad." "My dear, you two go to dinner quickly. Grandpa is waiting for you," Heinz said.

"What about you, Dad?" asked Ernest.

Before Heinz could say anything, Little Gary said, "He must have something to say to Mommy. Such a despicable thing just happened, yet he didn't even say a single word. He should apologize to Mommy." Heinz found that his son was simply his nemesis.

With a single sentence, Gary managed to massacre him.

Heinz gritted his teeth. "Yes, I have to apologize to your mother."

Little Gary pouted and said, "I guessed it. Mommy is kind-hearted enough to like a coward like you."

Heinz gasped.

He took a deep breath and said, "Am I that bad? Why do you always mock me like that?"

"Do you get embarrassed when others comment on your inabilities?" Little Gary said. "If you're so great, why didn't you say anything just now?"

"Gary Smith," warned Heinz. He was really shamed by his son's words. Gritting his teeth, Heinz said, "Believe it or not, I'll change your name to Gary Jones."

"Talk to me when that actually happens," Gary didn't seem to care at all. "Ernest, let's go. Give him some space. If he has high blood pressure, it'll be troublesome." "Yeah." Ernest nodded with a smile and said "But I think he'll be fine, his skin is rather thick."

"You can just call him shameless. Why do you have to be so reserved?" Gary said.

Ernest laughed at that.

Then, the two little guys left.

Heinz was speechless.

Helpless, Grace said, "Wash your hands quickly. It's time for dinner."

"Stay with me." He pulled Grace into the bathroom and closed the door.

Grace took a deep breath and asked, "Why did you close the door?"

"I want to relieve myself," he said.

"Why did you pull me in here if you want to use the toilet?" Grace asked.

"I don't mind if you see me using the toilet," he said. "Besides, it's not like you haven't seen it before."

Having said that, he grabbed Grace's shoulder and pulled her into his arms. He held Grace as he relieved himself.

He was really shameless.

He could relieve himself when he was being watched.

Grace felt embarrassed to look at him. She turned her head and looked away. However, there was a sink behind her. The mirror hanging above it reflected the scene.

Heinz was tall and the high-quality fabric he wore outlined his tall and straight figure. The way he hugged her made her heart flutter.

The gurgling sound of the water ceased.

He whispered in her ear, "Why did you turn your head? What else is there to see?"
