My Little Sweet Wife 2

Chapter 201 - Old Man's Birthday Banquet I

Although Old Man's face did not look too good, and when his gaze landed on Jennie, it was very cold, but he was still the head of the Manoban Family. He did not want to cause any trouble at his birthday banquet, so he just said coldly, "Now, the hearts of young people, I don't even know how many flowers they can bend, but since you are standing here, you should know how to restrain yourself! Do not play any tricks in front of us, seniors!"

"Grandpa's words must be referring to me, right?" Somi caught up quickly and took a big step forward. She glanced at Diana, who had an unrestrained expression, and suddenly sneered as she pushed her away from the Old Man, openly wrapping her arm around the Old Man's arm.

She said half mockingly and half coquettishly, "Grandfather, look at your 'supposed' granddaughter. Is she someone who likes to play tricks too?"

Diana was forced to the side. Her face paled as she looked at Somi in disbelief.

It was unknown whether Somi was purposely helping Jennie, or if she took the initiative to act coquettishly because she saw Diana's complacent look.

The Old Man looked at Somi with a dazed expression. Although he had a cold expression on his face, he did not scold her in the end. He only said coldly, "Who knows, you've been in America for a long time, and you must have learned bad deeds from others."

"Bad deeds?" Somi said with an exaggerated expression of surprise. "Grandpa, your General's blood is flowing in my body, I am a dignified admiral! How can I be bad when I have your honest and faithful blood? No one can be as innocent as I am, right? "

Old Man was suddenly amused by her words that implied she was trying to curry favor, but he just glared at her with a straight face. "You, just like your brother, flattered me on the surface, but behind my back, you were cursing me! Hmph, the most you can do right now is just put on an act!"

"How could that be? Grandpa, did you not realize that your granddaughter is much more sensible when she returns? If it wasn't for my brother and sister-in-law urging me to be filial to my grandfather, how could I have allowed my face to haunt you?" Somi's beautiful eyes widened innocently as she blinked again and again. She leaned on the Old Man's shoulder and smiled sweetly.

Old Man looked at Somi with some uncertainty in his eyes, then suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "That Jennie, did she really not say anything bad about me in front of you?"

The corner of Somi's mouth twitched. She shouted loudly as though she had made a mistake, "How is that possible?! Sister-in-law is such an open-minded person! Grandfather, don't play dumb with me. You know what kind of person my sister-in-law is! You really know what happened at the Mid-Autumn Festival, don't you?"

When Jennie overheard their conversation, she suddenly realized that Old Man was an old man who loved to act arrogantly, show off his military strength, and show off his face, but inside, he was actually quite childish.

On one side, Lisa and Jennie were looking at each other and smiling. On the other side, Somi was standing next to Old Man, acting coquettishly with him.

"Somi left home a few years ago and went to the United States. You did not return for many years and only returned once during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I heard that you almost made grandpa sick of being angry. Why did you suddenly come back and behave so intimately with him?" Diana butted in the conversation. "Looks like someone was giving her the bewitching soup. For Sister Somi to help you like this, do you plan to wash everyone's brains in the Manoban Family?"

After saying that, Diana's gaze landed on Jennie. However, when she saw Lisa's slightly dissatisfied expression, her expression froze. She immediately bit her lips, her eyes turning red, as if she felt wronged.

Somi tilted her head and looked at Diana. "From what you said, you are trying to stir up my relationship with my sister-in-law, right? Even if I defend her, what does it have to do with you? Moreover, I am a grandpa's granddaughter, so naturally, we are close to blood ties. There shouldn't be hostility between the two of us, right?"

"Furthermore, if I am not coaxing my grandfather on his eighty-fifth birthday, could it be that I supposed to anger him instead? Could it be that in your eyes, I'm acting like a spoiled child to my grandfather because I have another motive? Tsk tsk, Diana, what kind of attitude is this?"

"I ..." Diana choked on her words. She immediately shut her mouth with eyes full of grievance, her eyes turning even redder.

Seeing that she showed such a pitiful and wronged attitude, Somi scoffed, "You are already a grown-up woman, other than acting pitiful, what else could you do? You're twenty-three, not thirteen! You really like to play this game, aren't you?"

"Enough, Somi!" Old Man frowned, "You and Lisa are both busy and often not by my side. Only Diana stays with me all day, trying to find a way to make this old man happy. Her background is already pitiful, so don't take advantage of your good background and find an opportunity to bully her!"

Somi snorted, "I bullied her? Hehe, if it wasn't for someone thinking of ways to force me out of this house, I would be here to accompany you."

Diana did not say anything, her head drooping slightly as tears welled up in her eyes. It was as if she was very good at shedding tears. She was behaving like she did not want to make things difficult for anyone.

Old Man's heart ached even more. He used his walking stick to quickly walk over Diana, then turned his head back and glared at Somi, who had a domineering expression, "Somi! Look at what you have done?! Diana had to cry every time you came back! Couldn't we just gather together and have a good time together? Why you two must quarrel every time you met!"

"Did I start it? I was in the middle of having a good chat with grandpa just now. Who's the one that was butting in the conversation and telling lies?" Somi snorted disapprovingly.

"You damned girl ..."

"Grandpa, I'm fine." Diana quickly reached out and took the old man's arm, her eyes filled with guilt as she pleaded in a low voice, "Today is your birthday. Don't be angry because of me. I'm fine. I've been used to all of these all along. "

Somi rolled her eyes speechlessly, then walked towards Lisa. "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm a little disgusted. I'll go get some tea first. If you two are disgusted, then don't stand here, let's go together. This view is really an eyesore!"

"You only know how to mess around." Lisa seemed to be dissatisfied with Somi's words. However, there was no reprimand in his eyes. Instead, there was a slight smile of praise.

Clearly, he was already fed-up with Diana's attitude.

Somi, of course, understood Lisa very well. She couldn't help but pucker her lips at him.

"Somi, calm down. Don't be angry at your grandpa." Jennie whispered from the side.

"How could I be angry at him? It's always like this. I was obviously fine with my grandpa, but there are some people who like to randomly interrupt ..." Somi said loudly.

"You really don't know anything!" Old Man grunted, "Chitthip has been with you in the United States all these years, but I didn't see any good things you have learned from her. Learn your mother's tolerance!"

"Why do I have to learn from my mother? She knew that my father cheated on her and even had an illegitimate child. However, she pretends not to be aware of the situation because she didn't want her family turned upside down because of these things. Was she that magnanimous? She was looking down on herself and insisting on guarding this house! Learn good things from her? What is good about this! In the past, that woman was simply ashamed of herself in front of my mother. After giving birth, she disappeared with her child. It was said that she died later on, and her son was left in the orphanage. I wonder if my shameful brother is still alive." Somi sneered.

"Shut up!" Old Man knocked his walking stick on the ground angrily.

Jennie was stunned.

Marco had an illegitimate child?
