Leo was stunned. He finally understood why the baby had suddenly grabbed his hand, not willing to let go of it, and had even put his finger in his mouth. It was because the baby had thought that his finger was a butter cookie!

Leo's small face turned red within an instant. One, he was embarrassed because the fact that he had secretly eaten the cookies had been exposed. Two, the baby kept licking his finger and he felt... strange.

When the two adults saw Leo's face had reddened, they laughed even more heartily.

After watching the interaction between the two little munchkins, Jennie no longer felt so awkward as before when she faced Rosé. The atmosphere between the two surprisingly became harmonious.

Meanwhile, the ladies who had been focusing on Lisa did not pay attention to this sight. However, it did not mean that the men did not notice this either.

The men did not pay much attention to the gossips as women did. However, the incident between Lisa and Jennie was sensational, and it had gone viral back then. As such, they naturally knew the identity of the woman who was having such an agreeable conversation with the madam of the Song family.

It was precisely because the men knew Jennie's identity that they were caught by surprise when they were greeted by such a sight.

Before they attended the banquet, their impression of Jennie had remained as it was in the past. They had thought Jennie was still the ex-wife of the heir of the Manoban family and was despised by them.

However, judging from Rosé's interaction with Jennie, they had to re-evaluate Jennie's status in Lisa's heart.

After all, everyone had clearly known about the relationship between the madam of the Song family and Lisa. Who knew that her attitude might represent the Song family or even the Manoban family?

On the other hand, Lisa had already seen Jennie walk over to Rosé with Leo in her arms. He was about to follow suit, but was obstructed by various women who pretended to trip and lunge at him.

It had not been easy for him to finally get rid of those annoying women. Just then, he was stopped by Shin-hye who came out of nowhere.

"Mother?"

Shin-hye stared at his son in a disagreeable look and said helplessly, "Son, what's happening? Didn't you say you were going to pick Jennie and Leo up to attend Dudu's full moon banquet? Why did you only arrive now when Jennie and her son have already entered through the door?"

As soon as when Lisa was about to depart in the afternoon, Shin-hye had already learned that her son was going to fetch Jennie and her precious grandson on his own. At that time, she was very happy to hear this. She thought that his son was finally enlightened, and knew how to please his future wife.

During this period of time, Shin-hye also knew that Lisa and Jennie had quarreled with each other. In spite of it all, she did not pay much attention to this. After all, it was only normal for a couple to fight against each other, so long as the man remembered to coax the woman after each fight.

Therefore, Shin-hye was relieved when she saw Lisa went out to pick up Jennie and her son in the afternoon. However, reality showed her that she should not have felt relieved so soon.

When she saw Jennie and Leo coming in without seeing Lisa around, she instantly knew that something had gone wrong.

As such, the moment she saw Lisa entered, she immediately let go of her husband's hand and charged at her son. She wanted to ask him what was going on between them.

When Lisa heard Shin-hye's question, he recalled everything that had happened inside the car, as well as Jennie's final words. His face instantly darkened, and he avoided Shin-hye's questioning gaze. He remained silent.

When Shin-hye did not hear Lisa's response even after some time, she looked up and was greeted by the sight of Lisa, who looked as if he would not give her his cooperation unless she used force on him. She started boiling with rage.

"I said, what's going on between you and Jennie of late?! Weren't you both getting along well with each other before this? Why did you suddenly fall out with her? Have you done something wrong that caused Jennie to be unhappy? Be frank with me!"

Shin-hye was very pissed off by her son that she nearly fainted. She did not mind that her son had a low level of emotional intelligence like his father, but he had also inherited his father's stubbornness and obstinacy.

If this continued, it would be unknown if her son could gain back Jennie's affection all over again, much less take her cute precious grandson home.

With a series of questions bombarded by Shin-hye, Lisa's expression grew increasingly dark. He remained silent for a very long time before he reluctantly told her the actual reason why he and Jennie had been having trouble during this period of time.

"I wanted another baby with her."

Shin-hye froze. "Then?"

"She was not willing."

"So, you two fell out just like that? Wait... Son, how did you tell Jennie? Did you just ask her to have another baby with you?"

Lisa fell silent for a brief moment before he nodded his head.

It could not be. If he had said something like this, Jennie could not have remained calm for so long, and would not even come to visit her son when he was discharged from the hospital!

Shin-hye was deep in thought for some time before she asked him again, "Apart from this, have you said anything unnecessary, or did anything unnecessarily?"

"Did anything unnecessarily?" Lisa's expression looked cold as he pondered over it for a brief moment. Only then did he blurt out expressionlessly, "I pressed myself against her and asked her to have another baby with me."

P-P-Pressed.... Pressed himself against her... It could not be what she thought, could it?

"Y-Y-You... Why were you pressing yourself against her?"

Lisa glared at his mother disdainfully and said matter-of-factly, "Of course I was doing it so that she could have another baby with me."

She had guessed it correctly!

Darn it! How could her son, who was so retarded in some way to the extent that even the gods were angry with him, took the liberty without the lady's approval by forcing himself on her? Did he want history to repeat itself? But, the only difference was that this time, the protagonist of this tragedy seemed to have reversed...

As Shin-hye watched Lisa's expression who looked as if he was not aware that he was at fault at all, she grew very pissed off!

"Lisa, you must have a wife first before you could have kids."

Lisa's eyebrows twitched. Apparently, Shin-hye's words piqued his interest.

The corners of Shin-hye's lips twitched. She said in resignation, "You want Jennie to have another baby with you. But, since Jennie was reluctant, you should follow her will. In the end, the lady is still the main contributor when it comes to such things as giving birth to a child. If you force Jennie to agree with you, of course, she would not be happy. If she's not happy, how could you force her? Besides, what if she takes Leo and runs away, hiding in a place where you could never find her again? Are you going to have a baby with someone else?!"

Upon hearing Shin-hye's words, Lisa's face darkened. He said angrily, "I don't want someone else's children, I only want to have children with her."

He was not particularly fond of children. If not for Jennie, he would not bother to entertain those annoying kids.

"Of course I know that you want children with her. But, the truth is, if you really want to have a child, you have to capture Jennie's heart first, only then do you slowly reason with her, move her heart so that she could have another child with you.. If you force her, you are only making the matter worse, don't you think so?"
