Heinz knew that he had gained the upper hand over his father at that moment.

Because he didn't play his trump card of Lowell's background and he had already seen his father's trump card, he was therefore able to dominate the conversation.

Lawrence couldn't speak anymore.

He lost.

He found his son had indeed made him speechless.

Without telling the truth about Lowell, Heinz would definitely maintain his attitude and he wouldn't treat Lowell well.

Lawrence also found that he was in an awkward position. If he spoke about Lowell's background, Heinz's attitude and rage towards him would make the situation more complicated. At that time, he was afraid that it would be more disadvantageous to Lowell.

Hence, with such concerns, he dared not speak on the boy's identity.

He could only be in a dilemma. He was anxious and sweat dripped from his forehead. He looked at his son and could not say a word for a long time.

Heinz felt even more disappointed by his father, who still didn't mention Lowell's background or his relationship with Candace.

When he saw that his father was lost for words, he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, but at the same time, he was furious.

The father in front of him and Grace's mother gave birth to a child, and they wanted to scheme against him and Grace.

If he and Grace were not kind enough, they wouldn't be able to do anything if they really killed Lowell.

However, Heinz deeply understood that he and Grace weren't that kind of people, thus he could only say those words to upset Lawrence and make him frustrated.

In fact, those were only used to achieve a psychological balance in himself.

Of course, he would not send Lowell to Alsburg, let alone beat him, because he was clear that it was not the kid's fault. He would not vent his anger on innocent people.

Lawrence tried to speak but the words just stuck in his throat. He looked at his son who was in front of him, not willing to leave just like that.

In the past years, he had indeed owed his son..

Thinking about it now, it was merely wishful thinking for him to entrust Lowell to Heinz and Grace.

He was unable to determine his own destiny. It seemed fated that he had to come back when he thought he wouldn't return. Furthermore, he had to ask a favor of his son when he thought he wouldn't need to do so for the rest of his life.

He remembered the state of his wife when he resolutely left home last time.

Thinking of Heinz's mother, the woman whom he had taken advantage of, Lawrence closed his eyes.

His wife was born into a military family. She was fearless, forthright and righteous.

Moreover, she was emulous, competitive, and simple.

Lawrence sighed secretly in his heart. He had betrayed his wife after taking advantage of her.

There were some memories that he didn't want to think about, but it didn't mean that he could be composed. After all, he owed her.

He didn't want to think back to the past at all, but the reality couldn't be avoided.

He owed his wife during those years. Whenever he woke up at midnight or couldn't fall asleep, he couldn't ignore the remorse and guilt in his heart. He was haunted by those dreadful feelings.

The fact that he was with Candace showed they had the same mindset and life experiences. Likes attract after all.

That was because both of them were not in love with their wife and husband respectively, and they both longed to be freed from the shackles of their marriage.

He had always felt that it was not easy for him to be with Candace.

In the past few years, they could understand each other's feelings, regrets, soft spots, as well as how they had hidden their own emotions.

But their love was intolerable in other people's eyes.

Betrayal in marriage, abandoning one's husband, wife or child, all of these were out of line.

Lawrence was a failed father to Heinz whereas Candace was a failed mother to her daughters too.

However, when the two failed parents got together, they fell deeply in love with each other and they had a child.

Their love was intense and they gave birth to a son despite their age.

However, they couldn't raise him. Maybe they thought they had a child because of love, but they were indeed an irresponsible pair.

Lawrence also smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it! I have let too many people down in my life."

Hearing his words, Heinz felt a twinge of anger. He said, "There are truly too many people whom you have failed. My grandfather is still alive. Try to recall what you promised him." Lawrence was dumbstruck again.

He thought of the moment when Old Master Carter took him in during his hardship and allowed him to marry his daughter. However, he had failed to live up to his trust.

He also failed to live up to the love of Heinz's mother.

Those memories would only make him more ashamed and overwhelm him with guilt and apologies. He was even intrigued by Candace, enough to make Grace and Heinz raise his youngest son, Lowell. But now, he realized he was wrong.

He wasn't that smart.

He was afraid that Heinz would take revenge on him. He found that he might not be able to get Lowell back after he sent him to their side. Thinking of that, he was filled with fear.

In the car outside.

Sitting in the car, Jensen looked at the father and son, who were sitting face to face by the window, from a distance.

Through the window, he could still feel that there was an undercurrent of anxiety and hostility between the father and son, who had not seen each other for many years.

That reunion made both of them so unapproachable and unfamiliar with each other, not to mention that it even ignited a new fury in them.

He sighed. It was a pity that the father and son had such a relationship.

But in this world, there were not many families that were truly happy.

And there were not many parents who were unselfish.

How many people could devote themselves selflessly to their children?

All of a sudden, Jensen's phone rang. He picked it up and heard his father's voice, "Jensen, did you get married to Alice?"

"Yes. Dad, something happened between us and Heinz, so I didn't have time to go back and tell you."

Nelson said, "That's not important. Listen to me, you can celebrate at any time you want, but there is an urgent matter that requires your attention right now." "Alright, Dad. Tell me."

"Jensen, your mother still doesn't agree to your marriage and she keeps arguing with me. You and Alice should be careful. Your mother may go to Hart Villa District to replace you." Jensen's mood was spoiled and he turned despondent immediately. He said, "I get it. Thank you for telling me this. Alice and I don't live in Hart Villa District anymore. We moved out."
