Jennie and lisa are standing together in the waiting area with their hands tangled together.

They are watching the private jet of the Manoban family land. The plane tilted slightly to the left and began a slow and steady turn then the landing gear was released.

They both watched as the plane slowly but surely lowered itself and made an accurate landing.

Jennie held Lisa's hands tighter. Her eyes are full of anticipation and unmasked anxiety.

She is about to meet his father ah.

The plane stop and before the hatch opened a group of men in a black suit made their way into the plane. They formed into two accurate lines as if making a path for the people inside the plane.

Then the men bowed their head as the hatch opens.

Then a man in his forties and surprisingly a woman who seemed to be in her thirties happily made their way into them.

Happily? Yes! To be specific the woman seems to be bouncing while walking in her heels?

Jennie wondered if it was even possible.

Just who is this woman?

« Lali, Jenjen come give your mother a big hug." The woman beamed before taking off her sunglasses.

When Jennie saw the woman's full profile, she can't help but gasp in admiration.

Now that they are closer, Jennie can clearly see both of the man and woman's feature.

This woman is very beautiful and elegant. Her whole aura exudes warmth and confidence.

While the man looks sixty percent like Lisa, except for his beautiful brows and black orbs which he clearly got from his mother.

Jennie hesitated after she heard the woman...erm Lisa's mother. She thought only Lisa's father would arrive. Why is his mother here as well?

She looked at Lisa who give her an encouraging smile while pulling her towards his parents.

Then his mother gives both of them a big gentle hug. This hug is not one of those full of pretense and flattery.

This is not some hug mandated by social etiquette. she can feel the warmth and sincerity from his mother.

"My... My... What a beauty. I never would have thought that my daughter in law is going to be this beautiful in person. Hahaha..." the woman laughed while patting Jennie's shoulders.

"Mom, Dad this is..."

'"I already know Jenjen what are you still introducing us for?" his mother interrupted him. "Here, take this. This is my gift for our first meeting."

Zhao Chittip said as she took off her gold bangle loaded with diamonds and sapphire and give it to Jennie.

"Aunt... I... I..." Jennie looked at Lisa awkwardly, unsure of what to say.

Who would have expected that Lisa's mom would act like this?

"What Aunt? Call me mother. I will be your future mother in law so it is only right to call me mom. Right Lali darling?"

What is this situation?

Jennie really did not know if she wanted to laugh or cry.

Seems like lisagot his attitude from his mother?

She was so nervous earlier, however, it seems that all of her pent up emotions disappeared after meeting Lisa's parents. This... This is a little unexpected.

he just gives his mother a nod and dotingly pulled Jennie closer to him.

He knows how much his mother wanted a daughter, however, she had a complication after giving birth to Lisa. This made his mother unable to bear another child.

he understood that his mother likes Jennie maybe to the point of seeing her as her own daughter.

"What are we still waiting for? Let's go." His father said while giving Jennie a gentle smile.

It seems like his son had chosen well.

The lady in front of them is not only very beautiful. She also exudes elegance and class.

"Let's go. We also brought some gifts for your grandfather and uncle. I hope everyone will like it." Lisa's mother said after she put the bangle in Jennie's wrist. "Just as I expected. It suits you well." She said while admiring the bangle in Jennie's wrist.

"Aiya, this child. Stop acting so awkward. Come sit beside me, let's have a mother and daughter conversation. Let's leave the old man with his son for a while."

Marco Manoban raised his brow after he heard his wife's statement. "Just who are you calling an old man? Hmp?"

"Should I call you young man then? Hahaha... See Jenjen these men are so smart at business but they often have low EQ." Zhao Chittip said while pulling Jennie towards the car, leaving Lisa and his father shaking their heads.

If someone would see the current Matriarch of the Manoban Family act this way towards her daughter in law they would surely think that they are dreaming.

Zhao Chittip is known as more ruthless than her husband. Her acting so childish like this is totally out of her character.

Of course, the people who will say this are those who don't know her. Her husband and son know that she is the sweetest person that anyone can have.

Zhao Chittip is only ruthless to the people she sees as an enemy.

And as for her beautiful daughter in law?

Well, she always wanted a daughter right after she got married to Marco Manoban. But unexpectedly she couldn't have one after giving birth to Lisa.

She just can't wait to dress her up and experience how it feels to finally have a daughter.

This feeling... Being a mother to a beautiful daughter feels rather special ah.
