Master Jeon's Pampered Wife

“When you’re free, come home to visit. Whether you eat with us or not, it’s fine. Alright, it’s not early anymore. Go home earlier. Your mother will be waiting too. Come over earlier tomorrow. I’ll be home the whole day,” said Marco, then he subconsciously lifted a hand to pat Lisa’s shoulder. He had just touched her shoulder when he suddenly turned rigid. He paused for a while and did not continue. Instead, he silently pulled his hand away…

Lisa slowly turned her head to look up at the sky which had darkened. She then nodded. “Mmm, I’ll go home then. See you tomorrow.”

“Okay,” Marco answered in a lowered voice.

Lisa did not say anything anymore. She just turned to open her car door and get in.

In the evening, when the husband and wife reached Manoban residence, Chitthip was just about done preparing dinner. Boonlong had also returned rather early too.

Jungkook only discussed the wedding matters with Boonlong and Chitthip after the meal. However, Lisa did not know what they talked about. She went to her room to pack her things. She picked a few books and was planning to bring them back to Maple Residence.

When she was done and went downstairs, they were finishing up the discussion. They sat on the sofa leisurely and drank tea while they chatted idly. In fact, Lisa noticed that Boonlong seemed to be rather interested in the South River project, having learned more about it through Jungkook. It appeared that he was interested to collaborate.

When she sent the couple out, Chitthip suddenly said to Lisa, “If you have time, go back and visit him.”

“Mother…” Lisa muttered softly.

“We’ve done all that we should, all just to live with a clear conscience. Just ignore all the idle gossip. If you’ve done it, other people will be able to see it. Go home and rest this weekend. You’ve been looking better recently,” said Chitthip indistinctly with a smile.

Lisa subconsciously touched her little face as her rosebud pink lips pursed gently. She smiled at Chitthip. “I’ve been doing a lot of those things that are good for my health.”

“Eat more. Your body is quite weak. Once you’re better, you should have a child. You’re already 27. In a few more years, you’ll be at an advanced maternal age. Don’t worry about the trouble. It’s best to have two of them. Anything else can be discussed. Plus, their childhood will be less lonely.”

Chitthip unexpectedly rattled on a list of advice to Lisa. As she spoke, her beautiful eyes flickered with a gentle ray of light as if she was reminiscing something. The corners of her lips curled up. “Back then, your father and I wanted to give you a younger brother or sister, but he was worried that my body wouldn’t be able to handle it, so I only had you…”

Lisa quietly listened and did not say anything. For some reason, as she listened to Chitthip say all of this, her heart felt heavy.

Perhaps it was fortunate that they did not have another one. Such suffering was enough for her to go through alone, so why would she let a younger brother or sister suffer too?

On the way back, in the front passenger seat, Lisa did not say anything. Her mind kept flashing with the intertwining faces of Oscar, Marco, and Chitthip. Their words kept echoing in her ears.

Jungkook, who had been focused on driving, did not disturb her. Instead, he let her have some peace and quiet.

As she pondered, she soon fell asleep and did not even know that they had reached home until Jungkook came to open the door and was about to carry her down. She woke up with a start and got down from the car by herself.
