"You're still too kind. You have to know that you can't make it in this world without a little skill, especially when you're going to the Sunny Group in the future. You can control the whole Smith family from the inside," Jensen said seriously. "You can't make it without a little skills. Not to mention that it hasn't been that long. Have you forgotten how my mother used to bully you?"

Alice was at a loss for words. He actually reminded her of this.

"Look, you're on her side even now. This won't do. You're too kind. You can't be obedient like you're some tiny rabbit. I can't let my wife get bullied. Even if that person is my mother, it won't do. Do you get it?" She did not know whether to laugh or cry hearing him say that. "Since when has it been that scary? I'm not a tiny rabbit. I also have a temper, and it's not good."

His hand combed through her long hair and held her little face. His handsome face got close to her, and his eyes were full of determination and love.

"It's right to have a temper. If you don't have a temper at all, you'll only get bullied, especially by people like my mother, who only dares to bully people weaker than her. That's why you need some skills in order to be successful in society and in the company in the future too. This way, I won't be so worried."

"Is it that scary?" Seeing how frightening his words were, she was worried that she would be unable to make it in the real world.

"After being a policeman for so many years, I've gotten used to many people and seen all kinds of people. I know about everything. Anyway, you will slowly come to understand how dangerous society is." He lectured her like a big brother, telling her the basic qualities to have when going into society for the first time.

She pulled his hand, and at that moment, the door of the bedroom opened.

She immediately bounced away from him. She saw Rosalie standing at the door with a blank face, looking at them.

"Mom!" Alice immediately cried out.

Rosalie nodded slightly and didn't look at Jensen. She walked towards the kitchen instead.

Jensen raised his eyebrows and said, "Mom, since I'm with Alice right now, you go to the kitchen and help Dad. We're newlyweds, so I hope that you can be considerate."

She didn't even bother with him as she turned and entered the kitchen.

Alice also immediately got away from him and followed Rosalie into the kitchen.

Jensen took a deep breath from behind her. "Why are you going?"

"To help!" Alice said. "I'll help Mom, and Mom will help Dad."

"Then shouldn't I help you?"

"No need, it's enough to have me and your parents in the kitchen. You can do whatever you want." Alice blinked at him and went into the kitchen.

Hearing her words, Rosalie's cold expression softened a little. When she saw her enter the room, she said, "There's no need for you to help." "It's okay, Mom. I don't have anything else to do. I can cook simple dishes. When I'm not busy, I'll cook for you." As Alice spoke, she busied herself.

Jensen was left alone outside, and he felt bored.

The phone rang, and he immediately looked at it. When he realized that it was Heinz calling, he immediately picked up. "Heinz?"

"How's it going? How's it like after moving back home? Aunt Rosalie hasn't made things difficult for you, has she?" Heinz's voice came from the phone.

Jensen immediately looked at the kitchen door, turned into the bedroom, shut the door, and said in a low voice, "She didn't, and neither did she make things difficult for Alice. It's obvious that there's been a great change, but now it's my father and I who are making things difficult for my mother. Alice is actually getting close to my mother."

"Is that so?" Heinz smiled playfully. "Is that yours and Uncle Charm's strategy? Are you making things difficult for Aunt Brooks to shift her focus away from Alice?"

"How smart." Jensen started laughing. "That's indeed the case. The results are decent."

"That's good," Heinz said. "I'll immediately tell Grace about this so that she won't worry about Alice all the time."

"I don't think Grace is very worried. Those two sisters are very optimistic. On the contrary, you're worried that if something happens, the baby in Grace's womb will be affected, right?"

Heinz laughed heartily. "You're the only one who gets me, Jensen!"

"Of course. After all, we've been good friends for many years."

"Alright, I hope you're happy back there. I'll hang up first. That's all."

"Goodbye!"

After hanging up, Heinz immediately looked at Grace and said happily, "As you expected, Jensen's mother is treating Alice decently."

"I told you that you didn't have to ask, but you insisted on it, and ended up seeming petty. Alice is an adult and knows how to defend herself. Even if Jensen's mother tries to bully her, she won't have it easy. Alice is not someone to be provoked."

"I know," Heinz said. "Isn't this just me being worried about the baby in your womb? I'm worried that it would affect your mood, so I asked about it."

"Heinz, you know, it's not my first time being pregnant. The first time, I had to wander from place to place, and I could still calm myself down. This time I'm very happy, so I can do it again. Don't worry about me," Grace comforted him. "In short, everything is good. Be at ease."

She looked at Heinz who was completely worried and nervous. He did nothing else but stay with her at home all afternoon. When she woke up, he would be looking right into her eyes, full of tenderness. She was helpless, yet she found it quite funny.

"No, I can't be at ease. Last time, I couldn't accompany you throughout the most important parts of your pregnancy. This time, I have to stay with you throughout and give you my full attention. Even after you give birth, I'll be by your side throughout the recovery."

"You have to deal with the company," she reminded him. "I have people to take care of me. You don't have to worry about it."

While they were talking, the butler's voice came from the door, "Mr. Heinz, Madam Grace, Mr. Timothy is here."

Heinz was stunned and immediately said, "Invite him into the living room. We'll be there right away."

"Okay." The butler quickly went to comply.

Grace and Heinz looked at each other. "Why is Mr. Yarbrough here?"

"He just found out that you're his daughter, so he's naturally excited. He stayed up late and didn't sleep well, but still insisted on seeing you. I think he didn't come just to see you, but also the children." Heinz's deduction was right.

When they came out, Timothy was sitting in the living room and talking to Little Gary and Ernest.

On the floor of the living room, there were more than a dozen big boxes, all of which were filled with building toys.

Grace and Heinz were both stunned. They watched from afar and did not rush forward.

Timothy looked down at Little Gary and Ernest with a kind smile in his eyes. "Kids, I'm your grandfather."
