True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 916

Hearing this, Grace frowned slightly, but in the face of the smile in Timothy's eyes, she felt inexplicably sad. They had clearly never interacted before, but when he looked at the children like this, her eyes teared up. Heinz turned his head to look at her. Seeing that she was moved, he reached out and silently held her in his arms. He said, "It seems that Mr. Yarbrough wants to pass on the fatherly love that you never got to the next generation." Perhaps that was the case.

Otherwise, why would he buy so many toys? It looked as if he had bought it wholesale.

She sighed and a trace of sadness flashed through her eyes.

At the end of the day, she could not bear to reject his wholehearted wish to make up for his fatherly love towards the children.

"You're saying you're our grandfather?" Little Gary asked skeptically. "Why didn't I know? I'm pretty sure my grandfather has passed away. Is your surname Smith?"

"It's not Smith, it's Yarbrough." Timothy naturally understood what Little Gary meant. He opened his mouth and explained, "I'm your real grandfather. Anderson is your step-grandfather."

"How can you prove it?" Little Gary immediately followed up, very vigilant. "Why don't I know what you are talking about? When it comes to things like this, you can't talk nonsense." Ernest nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, you can't talk nonsense."

Timothy looked at the two clever children who were so cautious. He was very pleased and smiled more kindly. He said, "Of course I'm not talking nonsense. Your mother should be the one to tell you this, not me, but I was so eager to see you guys. I came here uninvited to see my two grandsons, and also to see your mother. I'm really happy to see you today."

"It's definitely weird for some long lost relative to show up at our door," Little Gary said. "If you say you're our grandfather, then hasn't my grandmother been too casual in replaceing three husbands?" Little Gary gulped down saliva in shock as he spoke. Then, he looked at Ernest.

Ernest's eyes also widened. "Three husbands is a lot. If you're our real grandfather, then Anderson is our step-grandfather, and that old man..."

He suddenly hesitated. Shaking his head, he looked at his brother with uncertainty.

The two children's eyes were wide open, as if they were in a state of stupefaction.

Timothy was also very helpless. "Uh, you guys wouldn't understand the grudges of the older generation, so there's no need to ask."

"Do you have the right to say that? You're the one who found a woman like that, weren't you?" Little Gary was very sharp-tongued, so he wasn't polite to Timothy, whom he had just met. He looked at him and said, "A single woman had three husbands. That is bold! You must be bold as well, as her first husband."

Timothy looked at Little Gary who was in front of him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really hadn't expected him to say such words.

Furthermore, his words were so sharp that he, a middle-aged old man, was unable to cope with it.

However, this was his grandson. He loved all of it, even the ugly parts. He looked at the boy with a smile and said dotingly, "I never married your grandmother. If we had gotten married, then maybe nothing would have happened with those other men." "You mean that you were irresponsible and just messing around with women?" Little Gary was shocked again. "Any relationship that doesn't have the goal of marriage is just fun and games. Don't tell me you did that as well?"

Timothy's expression stiffened. He was lectured by Little Gary to the point where his face turned pale, then flushed red.

He cleared his throat and said, "Children, everyone has their own life. As for how they live it, it's their choice. Things in the past have already happened. Some things are destined, and some are unavoidable in life. Everyone can take the wrong path and make the wrong decision."

"So are you saying all this to shirk responsibility? Or are you trying to defend my 'experienced' grandmother?" Little Gary raised his brows. There was a hint of craftiness on his cute little face. He said sharply and wittily, "Why does it sound to me like you're trying to defend your old flame?"

"Old flame?" Timothy was frozen in place by his words and didn't know how to speak.

Little Gary was too powerful. He could even an old man like him feel like he couldn't fight back.

"That's right. She's not your wife. She's just your lover who gave birth to my mother." Little Gary suddenly came to a realization. "Oh, I know. You abandoned her, which is why she married someone else, am I right?"

Timothy's face was stiff, and he was very embarrassed. "It's not what you think. You're still young and don't know about the adult world."

"Don't use my young age as an excuse." Little Gary continued, "I knew you didn't want to say it or admit it because you actually have a guilty conscience. You didn't want my grandmother, so she had to marry another man. My poor mommy had a stepfather. No wonder she was kicked out of the Smith family. My mommy has had it so hard."

Little Gary spoke, looking downcast.

He frowned with a dignified expression on his face. "Forget it. You can go. I don't acknowledge you as my grandfather. Even if you are my mommy's father, I don't want to acknowledge you." Timothy was stunned again, and felt a little awkward. "Kid!"

He didn't know how to explain himself.

"I really don't know how to tell you that I am indeed a person who hasn't properly taken care of everything. If I had done well, maybe there wouldn't have been so many problems afterward.

At that time, I was certainly not an exceptional person. I matured late, so I wasn't responsible," he said in a very lonely voice; he was extremely depressed. "You are right to criticize me. It's also because I didn't take responsibility that your mother had a stepfather. This really makes me feel very guilty and remorseful."

Timothy apologized, which was beyond Little Gary's expectation.

He curled his lips and snorted, "Am I supposed to forgive you just because you apologized?"

Timothy looked at him, and was full of gratification. He said dotingly, "I don't want you to forgive me. You're very good. I can rest assured since you're like this. You're a smart child and will be able to protect your mommy."

"Of course. If I don't protect my mommy, then should I count on worthless men like you and Heinz to protect her? One of you is an old man who didn't know about his own daughter's existence and is all muddled up, while the other is a half-grown man who didn't know about his own sons. You're all too weak." Little Gary's expression was filled with disdain. "Thinking of how messy the two of you are, I feel very frustrated."

Timothy's expression was extremely rigid. Being criticized and lectured by Little Gary made him feel extremely embarrassed, but he was also filled with satisfaction.

"Little Gary!" Grace, who hadn't said anything all this while, had listened for a long time. Seeing Timothy facing the children and not knowing what to do with himself, she couldn't hold back anymore and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
