Heinz was once again dumbstruck.
Almost in an instant, blood rushed into his head. He was so speechless that he couldn't even defend himself from the little fella.
"Old fool, you've been bullying my mommy. If I don't show up today, are you going to continue to look down on us?" Little Gary got angrier as he thought about it. His face was also very fierce. His piercing eyes stared at Heinz and he retorted, "What can you do other than bullying my mommy?"
Heinz widened his eyes and thought, "This child is indeed my son."
Gary was full of confidence and there was no doubt about it.
Heinz squinted his eyes at the child in front of him, and he sighed in his heart. He too spoke arrogantly, just like this child spoke before him.
He didn't have a mirror before, but that moment as he looked at the little fella, it was as though he was looking in the mirror.
"You're right, I'm a fool," Heinz said in a booming voice. "But kid, according to your words, am I really your father?"
"Do you still have to ask?" said Little Gary.
Heinz replied, "Of course, I have to ask. There is a child who looks so similar to me and suddenly appeared out of nowhere. So, yes. I have to ask." Gary looked at Heinz. The man in front of him was so unconfident. What a coward.
Gary looked at Heinz scornfully and said, "You are so unconfident. How can you still be alive? Why don't you pee and take a look at yourself through the reflection?"
"Uh!" Heinz felt choked by his words. He raised his eyebrows, scowled again, and his face almost crumpled into a lump.
This child's tone of speech was truly infuriating. He simply regarded Heinz as a fool.
"What?" Gary asked with disdain, "Are you such a coward that you don't even know who you have slept with? And that you have a child?"
Heinz froze. He looked at the child again and replied, "I'm going to find your mommy now."
"Don't," Gary waved his hand. "To be honest with you, I've found out about who you are some time ago. When my mommy took me to do a gene test, I already knew that my father was a coward.
During this period, when my mommy and you were in a relationship, she tried to be with you. She tried very hard to reconcile with you for my sake.
But the fact was that you had made her cry countless times.
So, don't look for her. When she sees you, she will be annoyed. You probably think that she likes you very much, right?
Let me tell you this, stop dreaming. My mommy said that she would not be with you.
You'd better give up."
After listening to Gary's words, Heinz understood instantly what Grace’s actions were all about as of late.
It turned out that she already knew that the child was his.
She was the woman from that night. Heinz should have thought of it when he was misunderstood by Jensen, but he was careless and didn't think much about it.
Thinking about it at this moment, everything seemed to make sense now.
He felt that this was really unexpected.
Grace turned out to be the woman who had spent the night with him six years ago. It was no wonder that he felt differently about her as soon as he saw her.
In fact, after that night, he seemed to have caught a disease and had no temptation towards women. Therefore, when Cindy seduced him, he did not respond at all.
However, when he met Grace, he had an instinctive reaction.
He was extremely shocked and could not accept it. Everything was so puzzling. Now that he thought about it, it turned out that his body had already recognized Grace as the woman from that unforgettable night.
And he was so silly that he couldn't remember it.
