True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 847

Little Gary narrowed his eyes instantly when he saw the bodyguard walking towards them. Even though tears were welling up in his eyes, there was also a flicker of guile in his eyes.

Looking at the bodyguard who came up to ask them, he thought of what Heinz had told him just now, which was that they had to cry out like that and see if anyone would come up to question them. It turned ou that someone really did come over to ask.

It could be seen that Heinz had some foresight.

Little Gary and Ernest exchanged looks. Both of them were very clever.

They immediately pretended to be innocent. Little Gary sobbed out pitifully, "Daddy and Mommy are hitting Lowell. We are afraid!"

Ernest also embellished the story, "Yes! They have been beating him so hard that he's now bleeding. They even tied him up before they hit him. Just like this."

As he spoke, Ernest demonstrated the way Lowell was being tied up. "Like this, Uncle. They tied his hands with a rope and there's even blood on it."

When the bodyguard heard this, he was slightly taken aback and then asked, "Why are they hitting Lowell?"

Little Gary lowered his head and looked pitiful. He said, "Perhaps, they are unhappy! Most people usually hit their children when they are unhappy, don't they?"

The bodyguard frowned and asked, "Then, why didn't they hit you but only hit Lowell?" It seemed that the bodyguard was concerned about this matter.

Ernest gave a shrug and said, "Uncle, your question is so strange. We are their biological sons, but Lowell is not. Lowell is my grandmother's child, thus he is of course the one to be beaten. Besides, my grandmother hasn't been nice to my mommy and aunt, of course they would hit him. However, we think that Lowell is too pitiful. After all, he is innocent, don't you think so?"

The bodyguard was astonished and said, "You are right. I don't know what to say either."

Staring without blinking at the bodyguard with his penetrating eyes, Ernest asked, "Then, why do you ask us? Are you worried about Lowell?"

The bodyguard was dumbstruck for a moment and there was a flash of guilt in his eyes. He shook his head and said, "No! It's not that I'm especially concerned. I just can't bear to see a child being abused." Ernest said, "Uncle, you are really kind. There are not many good people like you. You are a good man who cares about other people's children. I'll ask Dad to reward you. What do you think?" Hearing this, the bodyguard was bewildered and panicked. He shook his head right away and said, "Don't tell Mr. and Mrs. Jones. It's our duty to care about you. You don't have to tell them, okay?" Little Gary had already known that the man in front of them was an impostor.

He was sent here by an outsider. According to Heinz, that bodyguard should be a spy assigned here by their grandfather or grandmother.

Especially when he saw the look of the bodyguard when he stopped them from reporting it to Heinz, he knew that he was guilty.

Little Gary looked up at the bodyguards and didn't say anything else.

Being stared at, the bodyguard was mystified and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Ernest continued to say, "Uncle, don't be so humble. I will definitely tell Dad about this. We will reward you when the time comes. It's not easy for you to work so hard after all."

"There's really no need for that. I'm serious," the bodyguard insisted. He looked at both Ernest and Little Gary and continued to say with some embarrassment, "I'm just concerned about you guys, that's all." Little Gary said, "Come on, Uncle. It's really rare for us to have such a dutiful bodyguard like you to care about our safety. It indicates that you are a virtuous person! People like you should be assigned to an important position. Don't you think so?"

The bodyguard felt that he couldn't answer anything, but he just felt that there was something amiss.

Only when he looked at the two children in front of him did he realized that they were no longer crying.

He pondered, "What's going on?"

"When did they stop crying?" He thought about it in his mind.

He was a little surprised and asked directly, "Boys, why aren't you crying anymore? Are you not afraid anymore?"

Little Gary was dumbfounded, but he kept a composed expression and explained, "We were a little terrified earlier, but with you around, we feel much more at ease since you care about us. It's all thanks to you, Uncle. If Dad was to hit us, you must help us!"

The bodyguard said perfunctorily, "Of course. Is Lowell getting beaten very badly now?"

As he spoke, the bodyguard stretched out his head and looked into the house. His duty was based at the courtyard and he was not allowed to enter the house, therefore he could not see the situation inside. Ernest nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I just saw a lot of blood. He's really pitiful."

The bodyguard furrowed his brow again.

Ernest looked at Little Gary and said in a serious tone, "Why don't we go in and have a look? What if Lowell is really injured?"

"Fine, we have to be righteous! Let's go and take a look!" Little Gary replied. He cast a glance at the bodyguard and was about to return with Ernest.

"I think you'd better not go in. You are still so young and it's not good for you to see such a bloody scene. Why don't you go out with me? I'll take you to eat something delicious," the bodyguard suggested patiently.

Upon hearing this, Little Gary became completely alert. It seemed that the impostor was going to take action and lure him and Ernest away.

Moreover, Ernest instantaneously reached out and grabbed the corner of Little Gary's clothes to remind him nervously.

Little Gary held Ernest's hand calmly. He looked at the bodyguard and said with a slight smile, "Uncle, what kind of delicious food do you have? Where do you want to take us to?"

The bodyguard was filled with excitement at once. It seemed that they were baited. After all, children had no resistance to food.

He thought for a moment and said, "I can take you to eat whatever you want. Let's eat something delicious to relieve the tension."

Little Gary thought about it for a while and shook his head while saying, "But Uncle, we can't go out. We have all kinds of delicious food at home. If we go out to eat, I'm afraid that we will be beaten up even more when we return."

The bodyguard was confused and seemed to be a little anxious. He looked at Ernest and Little Gary as he said, "Why did you change your mind? Didn't you just agree to follow me? It's okay to go out with me. I am your bodyguard and I will be responsible for your safety. I'll send you back after eating, okay?"

Little Gary looked at the bodyguard with a grin. He declined the offer with a wave of his hand and said, "But it's already evening and it's getting dark. It's not safe to go out at night. Forget it. Uncle, thank you for your kindness. We won't be going out. Ernest, let's go in and have a look at Lowell!"

Ernest said to Little Gary, "As you said, Gary. Mommy said that we can't simply go out. We have to inform her if we want to go out."

Little Gary nodded and held his younger brother's hand as they entered the house, "That's right. It would be troublesome if we run into bad people."

The bodyguard, who was watching from behind, became agitated. He quickly said, "Wait a minute."
