Manoban Hong then spoke up. "Lisa, Father has never interfered with your business. However, this matter will affect the Manoban family's succession. It's been three years since you've gotten together with Jennie yet she remains without a child. You knew that she had trouble conceiving yet you lied to us, claiming that you were both on birth control. You say, it's clearly Jennie who has difficulties conceiving, How could you push the responsibility all onto yourself?"
Ye Yunzhi also did not approve of his choice. "If it wasn't because we knew from previous check-ups that you were healthy, would you have claimed to be the one with troubles conceiving? If in a few years, rumors begin to spread that the two of you are choosing not to have children, would you also declare that the problem is with you?"
"Why not?" Lisa was expressionless.
"You fool!" Chongshan was both angry and hateful as he watched his grandson.
The family discussed this matter heatedly over the dining table. Although it was a heated discussion, only Lisa's elders appeared agitated.
Lisa, himself, was expressionless.
Huang Zhishu and Kai both kept their heads lowered silently.
Truthfully, they were enjoying the show and preparing their schemes.
Manoban Hong was calmer than his enraged father. He directly asked his son. "Lisa, at least answer us this. If Jennie remains without a child, what will you do?"
Jennie was somewhat dumbstruck by the conversation she overheard.
It turned out that Doctor Shi confirmed that she had difficulties with conceiving.
It was Lisa who was keeping this matter concealed.
Ever since her rebirth, she had dearly hoped for a child with Lisa. Could it be that God did not plan on offering her this opportunity?
It had been three years yet there were no signs of pregnancy.
Although she had vaguely begun to consider this possibility, when the truth was exposed, she still could not help being upset.
Lisa raised his brows. He glanced at Hong, Ye Yunzhi and Chongshan coldly. "What do you want?"
Manoban Hong spoke up first. "Son, I understand that you love Jennie. But the Manoban family needs a successor."
"If you dare to ask for Jennie and I to divorce, you can take it that you've never had a son." Lisa stood up from the dining table. When he noticed Jennie coming down the stairs, a hint of heartache flashed past his gaze. He immediately approached to receive her. "My wife."
Chongshan, Hong and Ye Yunzhi were all pale with anger.
When they saw Jennie however, they immediately felt awkward.
"Grandfather, Father, Mother." Jennie greeted the three elders.
She directly ignored Huang Zhishu and Kai.
A hint of pity flashed past Kai's gaze as he glanced towards Jennie.
In an influential family like the Manoban family, wasn't a woman who could not conceive akin to trash?
Of course, this woman had a good family background. She was capable, rich and stunning.
She could still be enjoyed by a man.
The three elders nodded awkwardly. They were also very fond of Jennie. However, they could not accept that Manoban family's line to end here.
Jennie approached the dining table. She sat down and silently began to eat.
As though she never heard anything.
After she was done with breakfast, Lisa suddenly spoke up. "I won't allow my wife to suffer your mistreatment here. From today onwards, Jennie and I will move back to the Yu Ting Villa."
"You..." Chongshan was once again enraged.
Lisa paid no mind to the elders' reaction. He instructed the servants to pack their things up.. He then held Jennie's hand as they walked out of the Manoban family's mansion.
