Hearing Alice's words, Grace was also stunned for a moment.

Then, she smiled and said, "Thank you for treating me like this."

"She's truly indecent."

"Heinz and I have decided to lock her up. We will no longer let her see anyone, nor give her the chance to act out." While saying this, she looked at Alice. After all, Candace was their mother. She would not make a firm decision without giving Alice a chance to speak.

Alice nodded immediately and said, "Okay, Grace, it's good for you to do this. She has gone too far, never telling the truth."

"You don't blame me?" She looked at Alice and asked.

"Grace, why should I blame you?" Alice shook her head. "I have nothing to blame you for. I know that you must have thought deeply about it."

Thinking of Candace's behavior, Alice's hands clenched into fists. Her eyes were burning with rage towards Candace for forfeiting her duty as a mother.

"That's good." Grace sighed. She knew in her heart that Alice was reasonable.

After seeing that the children were sleeping soundly, she felt a little more relaxed.

She soon went back to Lowell's room. He was lying on the bed, with his eyes closed. Grace stood beside the bed and looked at him. When she was about to leave, Lowell suddenly opened his eyes and met her gaze.

He immediately smiled and said obediently, "Grace, you're back!"

"You haven't slept yet?" She was very surprised. "It's so late. Children should go to bed early to make sure you grow properly, okay?"

"I know, Grace," he said, a little worried. "I didn't know when you and Heinz would be back, so I've been waiting to ask you whether you've seen Mom and Dad. How are they?"

Seeing that Lowell had been trembling with fear since he came clean and could not relax easily, she opened her mouth and said, "Lowell, they may never change their behavior for the rest of their life. Everything they do is for their own sake. I hope that you are a child who can tell what's right and what's wrong."

"I am." Lowell nodded, looking very serious.

She looked at him and nodded too, saying, "That's good, I won't hide it from you either. Just now, I was talking about our mother with Alice. You know that she is ill, and it's quite severe. The doctor said that she still has about two months to live, maybe less. It's hard to say."

"But she doesn't want to stay in the hospital and receive treatment. She's always thinking of escaping from the hospital, so we can only restrict her freedom. First of all, we can make sure she receives treatment. Second of all, we can reduce the harm she will bring to others, since she always hurts others when she's out and about. In that case, we locked her up and prevented her from seeing anyone else. If you have any thoughts about this, just say it directly."

He pursed his lips and worry flashed in his big, clear eyes. However, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Grace, it's up to you. You can do whatever you want. I have no objection."

"It's okay, you can express your opinion. As for whether or not I can accept it, that's my problem, so I hope you can say what you think." She did not want to force him to accept it.

"I'll listen to what you say. I know that you're doing this for her own good, so that she can stay in the hospital and not have to suffer as much. Although she's gone too far, I sincerely hope that she will die without suffering too much in her last moments. You're doing this for her own good, so I support you," he said.

Alice was also at the door. When she heard Lowell's words, she said, "It's good that you listen to Grace. We all have to listen to her because whatever decision she makes is the best, and it's only made after weighing the pros and cons. We're all young, especially you, and it's hard to think that broadly. It's right to listen to Grace."

"Okay, I understand, Alice." Lowell obediently nodded.

"Go to sleep," Grace said to him. "Don't think too much anymore."

"Okay!" Lowell nodded and said. "Good night, Grace."

"Good night."

Grace quickly left. She and Alice went back to their own rooms.

Heinz had gone to see Norman.

In the room, Heinz had a cold expression. He took out his mobile phone, handed it to Norman, and said in a deep voice, "Norman, call Lawrence and tell him that Lowell has returned. Let's wait and see what he says."

Norman was stunned for a moment. He took the phone and asked, "President, aside from wanting to know what he says, do you have any other requests?"

Heinz frowned deeply and seemed to be thinking about something. He stared at the mobile phone in Norman's hand and thought for a while before he said, "I want to know where he is now, and to replace out what he is going to do."

Norman was stunned, but he still nodded and said, "Okay, but Old Mr. Jones is on guard. I'm afraid that if I don't word it correctly, I might expose the whole plan."

Heinz raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were sharp. "Just do as I say!"

Suddenly, the phone rang before they dialed anyone. Looking at the phone, Lawrence had coincidentally called just as they were talking about him.

Heinz frowned. He glanced at the phone and saw that it was indeed Lawrence calling.

Norman didn't dare to answer the phone without permission.

Heinz signaled for him to answer the phone with his eyes.

He quickly picked up the phone. Lawrence's voice came from the other end of the line. "Norman, have you got any news about

Lowell?"

"Mr. Jones, I was just about to call you. Lowell is back, and he is seriously injured. However, I can't see what's going on in the house. I only know that he has already returned to Heinz Jones' house." "Really?" There was some suspicion in Lawrence's tone. "When did he come back?"

Norman immediately looked at Heinz subconsciously.

Heinz raised five fingers. Norman saw it and immediately said, "Five minutes ago. I was about to call you when you called me."

"You have to replace a way to kidnap Lowell tonight. They should not be so alert tonight. Essentially, you have to replace a way."

"Where are you now, Mr. Jones? Where should I meet you after I kidnap Lowell?"

"You don't need to worry about where I am. I have something important to do. In short, their attention today is on me, and I'll be responsible for distracting them. Basically, they shouldn't pay much attention to you, so you have a big chance to kidnap Lowell. I've also sent some men to meet you at the gate."

"Who?" Norman immediately asked. "Will they pick me up the second I leave the gate? How many people are there?"

"Two!" Lawrence said. "I've arranged for two people to be stationed somewhere 50 meters away from the gate. After you get Lowell out, they will see you."
