......
Grace locked herself in the bedroom and did not come out for a long while.
Heinz paced in front of the door for a long while. He wanted to walk into the room to comfort her. When he thought of his wife's lonely figure and her untouched plate of food on the dining table, he felt conflicted.
He knew that Sylvia must've said something hurtful to Grace. Otherwise, his wife wouldn't look so upset.
However, Heinz had no idea what Sylvia had said to upset Grace so much.
Heinz kept walking towards their bedroom door and moved to push it open. However, whenever he tried to turn the handle, he would hesitate.
He was worried that his impulsive mood would further upset Grace. She was pregnant, after all.
As such, he paced back and forth outside the door for a long while.
In the end, he did not go into the bedroom.
About three hours later, the bedroom door finally opened.
Heinz was still standing at the door, nervously looking at his wife through the crack of the door.
