When Suzy looked at Irene, Irene was looking at Suzy as well. After a moment, Irene said with a smile, "Jennie is my cousin-in-law. Since you are her sister-in-law, you can just call me Rene, like Jennie does."
The girls had been drawn closer with just a short sentence.
Irene pulled Suzy to her side and asked with a smile, "How many months along are you?"
"About... About two months." Staring at Irene's big belly, Suzy could not help but ask, "What about you?"
"Five months along."
Just five months, and her belly was already this big! Would her baby in her belly be this big as well when she was five months along?
Rosé was a little perplexed when she heard their conversation.
Seeing her reaction, Jennie thoughtfully explained, "My sister-in-law is also pregnant, but hers came a little later than Rene. She has been pregnant for less than two months."
Rosé understood and congratulated them both. "Congratulations."
Minho nodded expressionlessly as a response, but if she looked closely, she would find that his eyes were full of pride and Leo about this matter.
As for Suzy, she seemed to still be in a state of surprise that Irene's stomach had already gotten so big at only five months. She only nodded reflexively to Irene's congratulation and did not show much reaction.
The surprised expression on Irene's face was too obvious. Irene could not pretend that she did not see it. However, she was now used to everyone's reaction at her belly. So she explained with a smile, "I am having twins. That's why my belly is a little bigger than other pregnant women."
"Twins!" Suzy widened her eyes instantly and stared at Irene's stomach in disbelief.
Minho was a little stunned as well. When Jennie invited them to come together, she only told them that Irene was pregnant like Suzy, and she had been pregnant a few months earlier than Suzy. She did not mention that Irene was having twins.
"Aunt Suzy, I want to see the twin babies too, please." Suzy was still in a daze when she suddenly felt a weight under her leg. When she looked down, she saw Leo looking up at her with anticipation. He was reaching out his hands, hoping that she could carry him up onto the couch.
Suzy hesitated for a second before she reached out to hold Leo up, allowing Leo to see Irene's big belly up close.
Leo stared intently at Irene's belly with a look of wonder. It was so hard to imagine how a person's belly could become so big!
After a while, the kid became dissatisfied with just looking. He wanted to touch it as well.
"Aunt Suzy, can I touch the babies?"
"You shouldn't ask me, you should ask your... Um... Your Aunt Irene."
Aunt Irene? Leo turned around and glanced at Irene. So this was Aunt Irene, the one who was having two babies in her stomach.
"Aunt Irene, may I touch your babies?"
Leo looked really adorable. And right now, when he was asking this question, he seemed particularly lovely. All Irene could feel was that her heart had been hit hard by something.
She had already heard about Jennie and Lisa's child before, but Jennie never brought her son to the company. Even when she met them outside, she only saw him from far away. She had never looked at the child's delicate facial features so closely.
I wish my baby could be as sweet and lovely as this boy. Irene thought to herself. Her gaze toward Leo became more and more gentle.
"Of course."
Leo was overjoyed. At the same time, Jennie and Lisa had already sat on the sofa opposite Irene and Leo. Seeing the situation, she only smiled and said, "Leo, the babies are still very small. If you want to touch them, you have to be gentle. Otherwise, you might hurt them."
After Jennie said that, Leo's hand, which had already stretched out, stiffened, as he became more cautious.
The chubby little hand touched Irene's stomach. He was so gentle that Irene could barely feel his hand on her stomach.
There was a mixed expression of curiosity and conflict on Leo's face. The adults present could not help but be amused by Leo's melodramatic countenance.
Irene was the first to laugh out loud. She took the initiative to hold Leo's little paw and led it to the front of her stomach.
"Can you feel it, Leo? The babies in my belly?"
Leo frowned as he carefully felt the touch on Irene's belly. Suddenly, Leo felt a small vibration.
The vibration just happened for a second, so Leo thought it was an illusion, but then, he suddenly froze.
Because this time what Leo felt was no longer just a tiny unnoticeable vibration, but a tangible light kick.
Leo's chubby little face became dull. His big watery eyes were wide open. He looked like a porcelain doll.
"They moved! They moved! The babies are moving in there!"
Irene's complexion was a little pale, showing how hard the baby inside her belly had just kicked.
Even so, Irene was still smiling. She waited until the pain had passed before she said, "Yes, it was the babies' way of saying hi to you, Leo."
"Really?" Leo was so excited that his face was red. His eyes had never been this bright before. Seeing that, Jennie and Lisa could not help but smile at each other, knowing that their true purpose of bringing Leo here today had been achieved.
"Of course. The babies really like you as a brother. Most of the time when other people came over to see them, they might not even say hello to them, but they greeted you instantly when you touched them. That means they really like you, doesn't it?"
Compared to the problem of being liked or disliked, Leo seemed to care more about another message from Irene's words.
"I am a brother?"
"Of course. I am your aunt. So my babies will be your little brothers or little sisters. You are their brother. You must take good care of them in the future."
Leo stared at Irene's big belly with a dazed expression, seemingly still trying to digest Irene's words.
"Goo goo ga..."
Suddenly, another lovely voice suddenly came from below Leo. Then, he felt a weight on his leg. He reflexively looked down and met a pair of big dark eyes. "Goo goo ga..."
This was the first time Leo had encountered such a thing. He opened his eyes wide and did not know what to do. Jennie and the others were stunned as well, as they did not notice since when did the baby, who was playing with toys on the side, had actually climbed to the side of the sofa and grabbed Leo's pants, not to mention that it seemed like he was trying to climb up to Leo's side.
Rosé was the first to react to this. She teased, "Looks like Rene's babies are not the only ones who like Leo, even my baby likes Leo very much too! You are quite popular with your little brothers and little sisters, Leo."
When Rosé said that, she tried to get her little baby back. However, her baby was young, but he was very strong. He was grabbing Leo's pant leg tightly and was unwilling to let go..
