Chapter 38


    Grace was stunned by her son''s words and immediately stopped him. "Honey, don''t be rude."


    "I know, mommy." Gary curled his lips and muttered in his heart. "But uncle was the one being rude at


    first?"


    The uncle''s eyes were still glued to his mommy, Gary thought.


    How could a man with a wife be so impolite to stare at other women this way?


    Gary pouted and said, "Mommy, I learned an idiom in kindergarten today. Do you want to hear it?"


    Grace was stunned. Looking the child’s serious expression, she clearly felt something wrong in her


    heart, but she still couldn''t help but nod.


    "Okay, go ahead."


    "Well, uncle, you should also listen to me and see if I’m learning it right." Gary said seriously, "The


    sentence is called ''don’t tie your shoces in a melon patch''. I think that the ancients are so talented.


    Such few and simple words can express profound meaning."


    Grace waspletely stunned.

    Grace couldn''t understand why her son was so hostile to Simon, given this was the first time they are


    meeting.


    Gary actually reminded Simon to avoid creating suspicion. This child was beating around the bush but


    also talking about the most obvious facts.


    Simon''s face darkened, and he was a little embarrassed. The child''s words seemed to have hit him


    squarely.


    Moreover, Simon was surprised that a child, who was only five years old, could be so powerful. He was


    instantly embarrassed.


    "Honey, you''ve learned well. You''re trying to avoid arousing suspicion." Grace had no choice but to


    reply, "Mommy understands."


    Grace also hoped that Simon could understand that he was her brother- in-w and the child''s


    reminder was right.


    Simon''s face grew stiff. He looked at Gary and clenched his fists. Gary’ s expression was impassive.


    Simon looked at Gary and said, "You have grown up. You were still a little one when Ist saw you."


    "Have you seen me before?" Gary asked.


    "Well, I met you when the day you were born," Simon said, "It feels like it was just a blink of an eye


    ago, what''s your name?"


    "Gary Smith," Gary said.


    Simon was surprised and a sharp light shed in his eyes. He nced at Grace, and there seemed to


    be excitement in his eyes. "Gary? It was a good name."


    Grace was stunned and flustered.


    Simon looked at Grace and was obviously excited. Did Simon misunderstand that Grace named her


    child in a manner to remember him?


    "The meaning is different," Grace said, "it''s just a coincidence."


    "It''s not a coincidence." Simon said firmly, " I understand everything."


    Grace took a deep breath and said, "No, you really misunderstood. It''s just aputer generated


    name. I picked his name from a fortune-telling app."


    Simon did not believe what Grace said. He looked at Grace with more intense eyes and said, "s, it''s


    my fault, I made the mistake."


    If he hadn''t been with Marry that day, things would not have turned out this way.


    Simon felt depressed.


    Grace couldn''t help thinking of that fateful day as well. History was made and it could never be undone.


    Gary looked at Simon and then looked at Grace. Suddenly, he realized they both looked awkward.


    "Uncle ims that mommy named me to remember him, is that true?"


    "Is there something wrong with mommy? Did she like this man before?" thought Gary.


    Gary was filled with doubt.


    Gary took a breath and looked away, saying, "Mommy, we''ve learned a lot of other idioms. There are all


    meaningful."


    After Gary finished speaking, Grace and Simon both looked embarrassed.
