"I'm not as rich as you." Jensen laughed. "When it's time for me to quit, I'll work with you. Don't forget to give me a job then."

"Stop talking nonsense," Alice said hastily. "Now, let's think of a way to take care of Marry. Otherwise, she won't get the full punishment even if she receives her sentence."

"Well have to punish her ourselves then." Heinz's voice was low and deep. He was confident that he would do it that way. His gaze was firm as he looked at Grace and said, "Grace, do you have anything else to add?"

Grace saw that Alice and Heinz were both determined to get their revenge on Marry, so she nodded and said, "Sure, you guys go ahead. I don't mind."

Heinz was slightly taken aback.

He hadn't expected that Grace would agree so quickly.

He had thought that Grace would stop them.

"Are you sure you're not going to stop us?"

"What's the point of stopping you guys when the both of you would get angry?" Grace replied flatly. "Although I think that people will always get what they deserve, it would be my fault if you guys get mad over someone like her." "So, I don't care what you guys do. I believe that you

guys know your limits."

What a cunning woman.

She knew that he wouldn't cross the line. At the very least, Marry's life would not be at risk. Although he longed to strangle her to death, both morale and law would not allow him to do so.

Heinz cheered up instantly as Grace didn't have any intentions to stop him.

Jensen saw that even Grace had relented on the matter; he alone was left fighting against it.

"Hey, you guys should at least think about my job. Would it be appropriate for a snake to show up in the police station?"

"That's your business." Heinz glanced at him. "Do you need me to teach you how to replace an excuse?"

Jensen was left speechless. "I made the wrong friends."

"Forget it," Heinz chuckled lightly. "I should be the one to say that. You should be considered lucky to be friends with me."

"Hey!" Jensen was bewildered. "Whatever. No matter what I say, you'll still do what you want. You can do whatever you like. I'll go play with the kids."

"Go ahead." Heinz put his arm around Grace's shoulder. "I'll go eat with Grace."

"Heinz, haven't you guys eaten yet?" Alice glanced at her watch. "It's already ten o'clock."

"No." He yawned. "I slept late and woke up late too."

"Didn't you hear what Little Gary just said?" Jensen looked at her. "Come here and play with the

children."

"Grace, Heinz, go ahead and have your meal first."

"You can join us if you feel like having a bite," Heinz said.

"It's alright. We ate before coming here."

"Okay, let's go and eat first."

In the dining room.

Grace sat down and saw the feast served on the table.

There was even caviar, lobster, and other dishes. Although each portion was small, there were still many different types of dishes. There were also cute and delicate pastries, which were made to fit the children's taste buds.

"Have a taste of what Ernest eats everyday," Heinz said. "This is one of the arrangements I made for him. He gets to enjoy different dishes every single day.

Grace took a few bites.

She was impressed and she looked at Heinz who was gazing at her.

His eyes were intense as he watched her, waiting for her to comment.

There was a strange feeling in her heart.

She bit her lips and said, "Heinz, the life that you give to Ernest is much better than what I could ever give to Little Gary."

Heinz's eyes narrowed. He thought of how she had to take care of her children even before marriage. Having to raise a child alone must have been tough for her. On the other hand, what he could give to Ernest was nothing to him.

He fixed his gaze on Grace and felt deeply sorry.

"Grace, what I've given was nothing to me. You've given your everything," Heinz's voice was slightly raspy as his heart ached for her.

What Grace had given to Little Gary was her everything. For someone like her, it was already extremely valuable.

"It's my fault. I left you a note without my name, only a phone number," Heinz said. "Otherwise, you could have found me much more easily."

"I thought it was humiliating initially. I was afraid because what happened that night was unexpected. Then a month later, my period was late. I went to check and found out that I was pregnant with twins." Heinz took a deep breath. "You're very brave for being able to give birth to them."

Grace looked down slightly, her long lashes fluttering over her eyes.

"I've also asked myself many times, why did I insist on giving birth to these children?"

"I thought of getting rid of them at first. However, I couldn't do that to them. It was my fate."

"So, I plucked up my courage and was about to go back to look for the note that you left. However, the note in the drawer was gone when I went back."

"I went to Hart Villa District to replace you, but I didn't know who you were, and there were no clues to start with. After that, I was heartbroken because I really thought that I lost the children. I was afraid that something might have happened to Little Gary, so I left the Smith Family behind for my children."

Heinz clenched his fists under the table.

There was a flash of heartache in his eyes. Grace had to go through such difficulties because of his selfishness. He didn't write his name at that time because he didn't want to bring troubles to himself. However, he hadn't expected that they would meet again, and she had given birth to two kids for him.

Guilt and frustration filled his heart. If he had known that this was the result, he would have written down his name no matter what.

In that case, Grace could have found him earlier instead of going through all those sufferings.

"I'm sorry," Heinz apologized. "It was all my fault. I didn't expect this."

"Why are you apologizing?" Grace shook her head. "This was what we experienced. Everything was fated."

"I'm so grateful for you, but I also feel guilty at the same time," Heinz replied slowly. "Grace, I'm sorry."

He stood up, walked to Grace, and squatted down beside her.

Grace turned her body to the side and looked at him. "Please stand up. We've found the kids and everything is getting better now. We should be happy."

"I'm delighted," Heinz said. "But I blame myself too."

"I understand," Grace replied. "I'm very grateful. You adopted Ernest in a flash and gave him a good life. Ernest was fortunate to have your care under that kind of situation."

"I felt a pang of strong guilt for him. However, when I tasted the food that you prepared for the children, I know that you've put in effort for them."

"On the other hand, what I've given to Little Gary wasn't much. I feel sorry for him."

"Silly girl." Heinz held her hand. "From now on, I'll give my best to you and our sons. In the past, I didn't give much care to Ernest and I didn't spend much time with him. So now, I want to be with all of you and we will not separate for even a day."

"Okay!" Grace laughed. "Sit down and eat. I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Sit down first, then well talk."

Heinz returned to his seat and looked at Grace. He urged, "Hurry up and tell me."
