"Your cousin is pretty efficient."
After hanging up the phone, Heinz, who was next to her, told her, "Just now, they were purchasing a ton of condoms at the supermarket. Looks like they have gotten together already."
"Ah!" Grace was shocked. "Why didn't you share this with me earlier?"
"You didn't ask me about it." Heinz shrugged and looked at his wife with amusement. "How could I have known that you were calling him just now? You weren't very interested in gossiping back then."
Grace was startled. Indeed, she had never been interested in gossiping prior to this.
"There weren't many people whom I could gossip about back then. Now that I have everyone, of course I will show more care towards them."
Heinz smiled and said, "But I still hope that you can allocate more time and attention for me. How long has it been since we were intimate with one another?"
Grace felt speechless.
She knew that Heinz liked this. However, how could she get into the mood when she had been so busy looking after the children?
Heinz remained relentless and held her hand. "You always keep quiet whenever I bring this topic up." "Okay. Let's not focus too much on this." Grace responded seriously, "Those times are certainly enjoyable, but I'm older now and there's only so much that I can handle."
"How old are you?" He immediately frowned. "You're not even 27. How should the other unmarried ladies who are younger than you see themselves if you talk about yourself this way?"
Helplessly, she looked at him and said, "Why must you compare me with the other ladies? Okay, now can you tell me how you found out that Zachary and Yvonne were purchasing condoms together?"
"I asked someone to keep an eye on them since I knew you would be worried about them." Heinz looked smug as he smiled. "Look at how busy they are with that matter. I think it's time for us to relax, sit back, to think, and focus on other matters that will beautify our lives."
She was really speechless at how he was constantly thinking of those things while talking about it in such a discreet manner.
She realized that she probably wouldn't be able to
escape that night.
Heinz had been holding back recently, and it looked like things were going to be pretty hectic soon.
She looked at Heinz and said deliberately, "I don't want to think about it."
"You can't just ignore it like that." Heinz immediately clenched her hand and begged her. "Honey, I really can't bear it anymore. Last time, the children were in your womb. Now that they're finally in the nursery, you can't treat me like this anymore. It's been really difficult for me."
Grace felt more speechless as she smiled at him and asked, "How does that concern me in any way?"
"I am your husband." Heinz said, "Do you really have the heart to make your husband go through such great lengths to wait for you? The night is long. How do you expect me to sleep with such loneliness?"
"Okay, fine." Grace didn't want to talk about it any longer. She smiled and said, "Okay, I promise you that I'll keep you company tonight."
"Really?" Heinz's eyes lit up instantly. He looked at her carefully while his eyes sparkled. "Don't lie to me. Once the children are making noise again, you're definitely going to abandon me to look for
them."
"That's the truth." Grace thought to herself.
Every time she heard any movement from the children, she would check up on them, which was a bummer for him.
"Children are our most important priority." Grace said, "Why must you compete with them?"
"The nanny can take care of them."
"The nanny is not their Mommy though." She looked at him with a smile and said, "So, you have to understand how difficult it is for me as a Mom."
"You're messing with me again." Heinz was suspicious that Grace had no worldly desires at all. He sighed and asked, "Are you trying to become a nun?"
Grace laughed and said, "Okay, go and see where Zachary is now."
Heinz was annoyed at how he didn't manage to convince Grace, but he still made a phone call to find out more about it.
Soon, he got the latest news.
"Your cousin has been wandering alone on the street all night as he got kicked out by Madam Lowe. He has wandered all the way to the outskirts of Northward City." "That far?" Grace was astonished. "Why was he out on his own for so long?" "He took Maria to meet her Mommy and left afterwards. When they returned home, Madam Lowe kicked him out. So, he has been wandering outside ever since then."
"Okay, go ahead." Heinz also knew that she had always been kind-hearted.
She gave him a kiss to comfort him.
Heinz finally let go of her.
Grace then gave Yvonne a call.
It didn't take long for Yvonne to answer her call. Soon enough, she could hear a hoarse voice on the other end.
"Grace."
"Were you crying?" Grace could sense it from her voice.
Yvonne paused, as if she was hesitating.
"I'm sorry." Grace then realized that her question was too direct.
"It doesn't matter. I just couldn't help but to cry." Yvonne didn't hide anything. "Forget it. I deserve it. Is there a reason why you're calling me?"
"Yes." Grace said bluntly, "I don't know what you feel about Zachary, but I just want to do my part for Maria. He's currently alone around the Northward City. He drove himself there and hasn't left yet."
"Alone?" Yvonne was shocked.
"Yes, he was kicked out by his mother. So, he has been wandering around on his own."
"Ah?" Yvonne sounded anxious. "Then, why don't you ask him to return home? Will something happen to him in such a state?"
"It's better for you to call him." Grace merely smiled. "You sound as if you're very concerned about him."
Yvonne hesitated for a bit, and then she said, "Send me his location. I'll go and look for him now."
