The Wife is a Superstar 1

Chapter 172 - Godchild

In the next few days, Lisa noticed that everyone in the household kept on giving him fruits to eat even when he didn't ask for it. He didn't mind and ate them all without protesting but after more than a week, he started thinking that something was up.

So when a maid gently placed a plate of freshly cut honeydew melon and cantaloupe beside him while he was reviewing some documents at the library office, he couldn't stop himself from asking.

"Why do you keep giving me fruits every day?"

"It's what the Young Miss instructed us to do, sir."

He already suspected as much. "I see. Alright, thank you. You can go."

When the maid left, he looked at the clock. It was a weekend and both he and Jennie didn't need to go out for work today. However, his baby girl was very busy at her music studio at home working on the film score. Although he wanted to spend time together with her, he also didn't want to bother her so he could only wait until she was finished.

Later at lunch time.

Jennie joined everyone for lunch. Lisa greeted her and gave her a quick kiss on the lips before pulling a chair for her. He was now used to eating together with everyone in the household. They usually ate in the kitchen and would only use the formal dining area when Jennie's instructors stayed for dinner.

Hoyeon and her son, Little Jun, also joined them. They spent the morning playing with Lily and Leo at the cat room. The nanny was on day off today.

When Little Jun saw Jennie, he immediately stretched out his little arms and struggled within his mother's embrace, crying out for Jennie. He wanted to be held by his aunt.

"Little Jun, let your Aunt eat her meal first. Be good," Hoyeon said.

Little Jun's cute little face scrunched up and he started crying. Hoyeon looked at everyone helplessly.

"It's fine. I'll hold him," Jennie said and gestured for Hoyeon to give her the toddler. Little Jun immediately stopped crying and started babbling happily to his aunt.

"Sorry about this, Jennie," Hoyeon said. Upon Jennie's request, she stopped calling her Miss Kim. After all, as Jennie explained it, she was the mother of Jennie's nephew. She could act formally when she was at work as Jennie's bodyguard but once she wasn't on duty, there was no need to be so formal.

Jennie sat Little Jun on her lap. Hoyeon moved and sat on the chair beside Jennie to feed her child. Lisa sat on Jennie's other side.

He watched his baby girl pampering the child. He couldn't help but imagine how it would feel if it was their own child on her lap instead. How wonderful it must be if he could have a child (or two) with her in the future.

Little Jun turned his head and looked straight at Lisa. The baby and the man looked at each other with curiosity. Suddenly, Little Jun beamed and giggled. Then he stretched out his little arms towards Lisa.

Jennie chuckled and told Lisa, "He wants you to hold him. Here."

Lisa moved his torso away and put his hands up in front of him, looking alarmed and shaking his head. "No, no. Baby, please no. I don't know how to hold a child."

She ignored him and pushed Little Jun in his arms.

He didn't have any choice, so he cautiously held the baby. He was worried that he would drop the child, so he didn't dare move.

Then Little Jun pointed a finger at Lisa's face and said, "Papa!"

Everyone was shocked.

Jennie immediately took the child from him and gently told the child, "No, Little Jun. He's not your father."

Little Jun gave her a confused look, then pointed at Lisa again. "Papa?"

"No, not Papa. He's your Uncle."

The child scrunched his face. Then he pointed a finger at Jennie. "Mama?"

Jennie froze and then blinked. "No, Little Jun. I'm not your Mama. I'm your Aunt. This is your Mama," she said, pulling Hoyeon who was sitting beside her.

Hoyeon had an awkward expression on her face.

Little Jun looked confused. He pointed at Hoyeon. "Mommi!" Then he pointed at Jennie. "Mama!"

"Oh! I get it!" Jae exclaimed, clapping his hands together. "Hoyeon is Mommy and boss is Mama! And then sir boss is Papa! Kyaaah! This is so adorbs! Wait! Let me take a video of this!" He took out his phone and started recording. "Junie boy, where's Mommy?"

Little Jun pointed at Hoyeon. "Mommi!"

"Where's Mama?"

The child pointed at Jennie. "Mama!"

"Where's Papa?"

The child pointed at Lisa. "Papa!"

"Uwah! My heart can't take this cuteness! My cutey patootie Junie boy is so adorbs! So smart!" Jae bounced on his seat in excitement as he continued recording.

Of course, everyone started praising the toddler and gushing about him.

Jennie turned to Hoyeon beside her. "Where did he learn to say all these?"

"I honestly don't know," Hoyeon answered helplessly. Then she looked at Jae with a suspicious expression on her face.

"Hey! Why are you looking at me like that?" Jae pouted and then looked at his sir boss mournfully. "Why is everyone blaming me when I didn't even do anything?"

"What does he call my brother then?" Jennie asked Hoyeon.

Hoyeon stiffened at the mention of Donghwi but still answered, "He calls him Dada."

"Hmm... I see." Jennie gently poked her finger on Little Jun's squishy cheek. "At least he's not confused. He calls us differently."

Hoyeon laughed awkwardly.

Then Jennie turned to Lisa. "So you're now his Papa."

Lisa nodded. Surprisingly, he didn't mind it especially since he was paired up with his baby girl. He was the Papa and she was the Mama. He also gently poked the child on the cheek, making Little Jun giggle.

He looked at Hoyeon. "From now on, Jennie and I are his godparents."

Hoyeon was taken aback at first and then her eyes filled with tears. "Yes. Thank you very much! Please take care of Little Jun."

"En."

Everyone was in high spirits. The cook announced that she would prepare a sumptuous meal for dinner later to celebrate. Since Little Jun was still too young, they would need to wait a few more years for him to formally pay his respects to his godparents.

Lisa looked at the child sitting on his baby girl's lap. He would call his butler later and instruct him to buy some baby clothes and other baby things to gift to his first godchild.
