True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 1077

Little Gary's calm demeanour turned grave when he heard that. In a solemn tone, he questioned, "This was sent by my grandfather?"

The butler forced himself to nod, slightly terrified by the young master's imposing expression. He was so young, yet his attitude exactly resembled Mr. Heinz's.

No!

Compared to other boys at his age, Little Gary was indeed much more exceptional than any of them.

He was astute, quick-witted, and blunt. No way could anyone beat him in anything.

The butler could only look at the child and nod meekly, "Yes."

Little Gary let out a scoff before he turned around and walked away. "I thought parents would never harm their own children. Grandpa is so full of surprises. Did he really intend to hurt Mommy and the babies in her belly?"

"Who knows?" The butler shook his head as he spoke. "We don't know what's going on either.

We're just afraid that it might not be what it seems. I really don't think Mr. Yarbrough is that kind of person. I think that's why Mr. Heinz doesn't want everyone to know about this, let alone have news spread around in case it was all a misunderstanding."

"Didn't Heinz tell you what happened? Or are you still deliberately keeping something from me?" Little Gary narrowed his eyes, his gaze piercing the butler like a dagger.

Anxious, the butler hurriedly defended himself, "Young Master, I'm telling you the truth. How could I lie to you? Please stop staring at me like that, it's making me feel very uncomfortable. There really aren't any other secrets I'm keeping from you. I'm honestly still shocked that you found out about this. All this time, I thought I've been careful hiding it."

"There's a proverb, the day has eyes, the night has ears. Don't do it if you don't want to be found out." Little Gary said, refusing to avert his gaze from the butler. "Don't try anything funny with me. I'm not someone who you can afford to mess with."

The butler remained silent.

"I hold grudges," Little Gary reminded the butler. "I'm very, very good at holding grudges. I can hold a grudge forever, do you understand?"

"I understand," The butler nodded. If this boy was willing to call his own father by his name, what else wouldn't he do?

"Are you hiding anything else from me?" Little Gary asked once more.

The butler shook his head and then nodded.

"Are you admitting or denying? What are you trying to say? Tell me now," Little Gary asked aggressively.

The butler had no choice but to explain. "I heard that it was Mr. Yarbrough's wife who asked him to bring the fruits to your mother, so I think Mr. Yarbrough might have been framed."

"This is important information. Why didn't you just say it just now? I really thought Grandpa was trying to hurt Mommy." Little Gary exclaimed.

Tve only just heard about it," the butler admitted. "I don't really know what's going on exactly."

"Alright then, that will be all. Get on with your work," Little Gary ordered. "I'm going to call Mr. Yarbrough now."

"Yes!" The butler said as he wiped the sweat off his forehead. As if he had just been reminded of something, he added, "Milord, if you call Mr. Yarborugh, wouldn't you be exposed?"

"Then you go make the call. Invite Mr. Yarbrough over, I want to speak with him." Little Gary's face darkened, taking on a stern tone as he spoke.

The butler could not help but stutter as he asked, "Milord, if you invite Mr. Yarbrough over, what should we do if Mr. Heinz finds out?"

"What can he do? He couldn't even protect Mommy properly, he should be responsible for all of this. What right does he have to question my actions? Hurry and do as I say. Go invite Mr. Yarbrough over here. Tell him to come as soon as possible," Little Gary said.

"But what if Mr. Yarbrough doesn't show up?" The butler asked reluctantly. He wanted to talk Little Gary out of this.

However, Little Gary had already made up his mind. In a deep voice, he replied, "Relay my thoughts to Mr. Yarbrough. He'll definitely come running after that. If he doesn't, he'll find it difficult the next time he wants to come over."
