Heinz was flustered. He frowned and said, "Are you saying that if I won't get jealous, you would agree to help Sonia in helping Simon?¹'
Grace saw the change in his expression. She smiled slightly and nodded, "Yes, can I help her?"
"No." Heinz's face sank immediately. His gaze was terrifyingly cold.
She giggled, "You actually got angry."
Heinz glanced at her angrily and said, "Are you really going to help them if I didn't stop you?"
"No." Grace shook her head. "I was just kidding."
Heinz was surprised. He didn't expect Grace to say that.
He still frowned and said, "I think you are not kidding at all. That's what you think deep down."
Grace knitted her eyebrows. Heinz had started to act up again. He even got jealous.
Grace sighed and said, "Simon and Marry caused me to be separated from Ernest for so many years. If I forgive them that easily, I would be Virgin Mary. I am human, not God. I don't have such a high tolerance."
Heinz relaxed as soon as he heard her. "I've wronged you then. If you really forgive him so easily, then I would be very angry."
Grace shook her head and with clarity in her eyes, she uttered, "I didn't forgive him. I just don't want anything to do with them anymore."
"Then, why did you come to meet Sonia?"
Grace was taken aback and said softly, "I came to meet her because I didn't want this matter to get too out of hand."
Heinz pursed his lips and shook his head, "I think it's better to have not met her. If our actions don't satisfy her even after meeting her, it's bad on our end too."
Grace nodded. "I agree with you. We shouldn't have met her."
Heinz changed his tone and expression as he heard Grace's words. "In fact, it's right for you to meet her. If you don't meet her, you wouldn't know what her purpose is. At least now, we know what she's thinking. Besides, for someone like Sonia, I think if you didn't meet her today, she will keep looking for you."
"Don't worry about her." Grace said lightly, "I don't really care about what she is doing. I only know that whatever she does, she has to pay the price and be punished."
"Do you really not mind?"
Grace's face darkened as she looked at Heinz and said, "Do you think I can forgive a b*stard like Simon who hurt Ernest and I so easily?"
"I'm relieved then." Heinz's mood turned better in an instant. There was a hint of pride on his face. "When we head to Southland tomorrow, she won't be able to find us for a week."
Grace nodded her head.
"It's just that I don't know if Sonia is really pregnant." Heinz felt a little puzzled about this.
"It's none of our business anyway."
"That woman has guts. She even dares to give birth to Simon's child."
"Once a woman is pregnant, the reason why she chooses to give birth to the child is not because of the man who got her pregnant, but it is because of the child itself. It is because the child has ignited the woman's maternal instinct," Grace said.
Heinz frowned, "What about you? What was the reason that you chose to give birth to the children?"
"A mother's love," Grace answered without hesitation.
Heinz felt a little lonely. "Although I can't refute it, I am very disappointed when I hear this answer."
Grace smiled gently and replied after a long while, "My dear president, you didn't think that I gave birth to the children because of you, did you?"
"I sure hope so."
That was a beautiful thought and wish.
Grace continued to explain, "When I knew that I was pregnant, I did a check- up to get rid of the baby. When I was lying on the hospital bed, I suddenly found that I couldn't do it."
"The doctor kindly told me that they were twins. I was even more reluctant to get rid of them. There were two lives. Of course I would loathe to part with them."
"To be honest, I didn't know who their father was. I didn't know if he was tall, short, fat, or skinny. I didn't even know what was going on when I threw myself at you."
"I gave birth to two children. I lost one of them and I almost died of heartbreak and pain."
"Luckily, Little Gary was still by my side. Otherwise, I might not be able to hold on."
