"Puff!" Alice burst into laughter. "My nephew, you are only five years old. What has been bothering you?"
"I have been worried about you!" Little Gary pointed at Alice and said, "Both you and my mother. You two have made me feel very troubled."
"Us?" Alice was stunned and pointed at herself. "Did your mommy and I bring any trouble to you?"
"Yes!" The little one said seriously, "You have confirmed your relationship with Officer Charm for a few days, haven't you? However, you have never gone on a date with him. Instead, you stay at home all day. Are you sure you are in a relationship?"
Alice was stunned. "Who says I want to be in a relationship with him?"
As soon as she asked this, Gary stopped walking and looked up at Alice seriously. His bloodshot eyes were sharp and frightening.
Seeing Little Gary like this, Alice immediately recalled Heinz's imposing manner and couldn't help but shiver.
"Little Gary, don't look at me like that. I'll be traumatized if you look at me like that," Alice said.
"Don't you go out on a date when you are in a relationship?" Gary said, "However, you stay at home all the time. In this way, you're entering the lifecycle of a retiree! Little Aunt, your life hasn't started yet it has already ended."
"I..." Alice thought for a moment and felt that what he said made sense. "Although what you said is reasonable, I think this is also called assurance."
"It's very assuring," Gary sighed, but there was also a hint of helplessness on his cool face. "All you do is go to school, pick me up and go home. That's your life. It's so monotonous."
"That's what I like," Alice said, "You're still young and you don't understand."
"It's true that I don't understand. However, I know that if Officer Charm just comes to our house for a meal and leaves, there would be no improvement in your relationship. If you always ask him to leave after dinner, how would you have the time to cultivate your feelings with him?"
Alice stiffened for a moment.
"I think you're not cultivating feelings with a man. Instead, you're cultivating a glutton!" Little Gary took her hand and walked forward again. "We have been making so much food for our meals recently."
"That's right," Alice said.
She laughed. "Uncle Henley and Jensen are eating at our house. Of course, we have to make more food."
"I hope there won't be more and more people eating in our house in the future," Little Gary had other ideas in his mind. Since Gary had met Heinz in private today, would that man go looking for his Mommy?
Gary couldn't help but frown at the thought of it.
"Are you that troubled all because of such a small matter?" Looking at his bitter face, Alice asked with
a smile.
"All right," Gary said, "I'm lying. In fact, it's not because of you."
"Then, what's wrong with you?" Alice asked.
"I may have done something bad," Gary looked up at Alice guiltily.
"What did you do?" Alice immediately asked worriedly, "Hurry up and tell me. Is it something dangerous? Will it hurt you?"
Seeing that Alice was getting worried, Little Gary felt even more guilty. He carefully observed Alice and said, "In fact, it's nothing."
"No," Alice immediately squatted down and looked at him. "Tell me what's going on. Why do you look so guilty?"
"I met Heinz Jones today," Gary had no choice but to admit it.
He didn't want to lie since he had to tell his Mommy and Little Aunt sooner or later.
"What did you say?" Alice was stunned. "Who did you meet?"
"I met Heinz," Gary said.
"Does he know about you?" Alice asked in disbelief.
Little Gary nodded and said guiltily, "Just by looking at my appearance, he doesn't need a DNA test to know that I'm his child."
Alice's head was blank. After a long time, she came to her senses and looked angry. It must be Jensen who told Gary about this.
Otherwise, how could Gary have gone to see Heinz?
