The Wife Is a Superstar 2

Chapter 204 - Passionate Lover

The atmosphere became uncomfortable. Lisa looked cold as always, but everyone in the room was familiar with him. They knew that he was seething underneath his cold demeanour.

Grandpa realized that he went a little too far this time. He loved Lisa and considered him as a grandson. However, he still couldn't help but prioritize his own flesh and blood grandson, Jiyong.

Jennie was just too beautiful and brilliant that he wanted her for his own grandson. He inwardly hoped that the children she birthed would bear the name Kwon, not Manoban. But Lisa's words reminded him that the two boys were best friends and brothers. Stealing the woman of one's brother was a grave sin.

Realizing his selfishness and unfairness to Lisa, Grandpa felt ashamed of himself. He sighed.

"Sorry. Grandpa was just too caught up in his emotions. Don't worry, I will erase this kind of thoughts from now on and support your relationship with Jennie. You're all my grandchildren. I want you all to be happy."

Lisa still felt provoked but since this was Grandpa, he forced himself to nod. He knew that the elder didn't mean any harm.

Grandpa cleared his throat. "I hope that you and Jiyong will forever treat each other as brothers like your grandfather and I. Jiyong is returning to the country in a few days. He's not in the best of health, so he'll need you brothers."

"En." Lis nodded more readily this time.

Having been reminded of his Fifth Brother's health, the negative feelings inside Lisa slowly faded away. Indeed, their brotherhood was forged by a strong bond of loyalty and trust throughout the years. It wasn't something that was easily broken.

The tense aura dissipated. Grandma and Chitthip released sighs of relief. Both of them knew that Lisa had an extremely serious personality. Once provoked, he could be ruthless when he decided to retaliate, even to his loved ones.

"Is Grandpa's grandson your Fifth Brother, Lis?" Jennie asked.

"En."

"Oh. So he's coming back soon? Will I meet him?"

Lisa observed her. "You want to meet him?"

"Of course. He's your brother. I already met Eldest Brother, Second Brother and Teacher Wang. Your Fifth Brother is the only one I haven't met yet. You told me before that your brothers are my brothers too, so I want to meet him."

He didn't answer right away. He continued to look at her for a few moments. Finally, he told her, "Alright, baby. I'll introduce you when he's settled down after arriving. Let's give him a week or so to adjust from jet lag."

"Okay."

The conversation gradually moved to lighter and more pleasant topics.

Lisa finally realized that the genius girl his grandmother was talking about when she phoned him before was his own baby girl. He also learned that Grandpa was his baby girl's business mentor. Of course he was happy and proud of her, but there was a small part of him that wanted to be the one to guide her through the business world. However, he would never complain because he knew that Grandpa was a business genius. There was no doubt that she got the best business mentor available in the country.

Later, they all ate a sumptuous dinner. It was extra special because of Jennie and Lisa's revelation of their relationship. Grandma and Chitthip were delighted for them. The awkwardness between Lisa and Grandpa already disappeared as well. Everyone was in great spirits.

As they ate and chatted, the two elders and Chitthip observed the couple. There were so many instances that they caught the two just staring into each other's eyes.

Lisa also couldn't keep his hands to himself, constantly touching Jennie. He would hold her hands, stroke her hair, touch her face, or nuzzle her shoulder. Although Jennie didn't initiate any of their public displays of affection, she didn't reject him. In fact, she felt at ease and pleased with all his ministrations. Sometimes, as if she couldn't help herself, she would also respond with her own little touches.

There was a moment when Jennie excused herself to go to the washroom, Lisa also stood up with the intent of following her.

"I can go by myself," Jennie told him.

"I'll go with you. You might get lost. This is a big house," he replied.

"I've been here before. I know where I'm going. I won't get lost. Stay here and chat with them, okay?"

"No, I also need to go."

"Oh. Okay, then."

When they were gone, the two elders and Chitthip immediately talked about them.

"I never expected for my son to be like this," Chitthip said. "I always thought that he'd be cool and detached like his personality when it comes to romance, but it appears that he's actually quite the passionate lover. I'm very surprised as his mother."

Grandma looked nostalgic. "He reminds me of his grandfather. They're very similar. You think at first that they're ice blocks but in reality, they're blazing hot volcanoes inside. The Manobans have always been intense men. It's only V who's a bit of a wishy-washy. Well, it's true that he's intense when it comes to his career but as for the other aspects of his life? Hai."

"Mother, V has matured a lot in recent years..."

Chitthip felt defensive for her youngest son. She felt that her mother-in-law was being too critical of the poor boy ever since he got engaged to Jieun. She couldn't understand why her mother-in-law didn't like his son's fiancée. Jieun was such a nice girl.

Grandpa sensed that the two ladies were about to argue, so he deliberately butted in and sharply changed the topic. He made some jokes to make them laugh.

It was at this moment that Jennie and Lisa returned.

Jennie looked a little flushed. Her lips were noticeably swollen. Beside her, Lisa looked like a cat who ate the canary. He had a smug smile on his face, looking completely pleased with himself.

The three immediately figured out what the two had been doing while they were gone. However, they pretended not to notice, welcoming them back. Chitthip couldn't stop herself from blushing, though.

Later that night, the pilot informed Lisa that the windy condition worsened. It wasn't safe to fly. Jennie and Lisa were forced to sleep over.

Grandma instructed for two separate bedrooms to be prepared for Jennie and Lisa. However, one of her maids later informed her that Lisa's bedroom was empty. It only meant one thing. He decided to sleep together in the same room with his girlfriend.

"Oh well. Maybe I'll have a great-grandchild sooner than I thought."

With a chuckle and a sigh, Grandma turned off the lights in her room and went to sleep, dreaming of her beloved husband.
