My Darling, My Dearest

Chapter 270 Talk About Lea

The atmosphere in the living room was terribly awkward.

It took Henry a few moments to finally realize why Lea's family had suddenly come.

Since the Qin family was quite big, they had a lot of relatives in different places.

So although they kept it secret, the news about their marriage immediately reached his grandmother.

Since the news shocked her, she didn't waste any time. She contacted Henry's parents and talked to his father to know the whole story.

No one knew what was going on in her mind when she only said, "You can deal this situation by yourselves."

Henry's parents looked at each other. Perplexity was written all over their faces, thinking what the old lady meant.

While they thought that it would be better to inform Henry about it, the old lady spoke again. "Where is that woman now? I need to see her."

Henry's father was afraid that she would do something unpleasant, so he suggested, "Mom, let me go with you. You might scare her." The old lady knew what he was worried about. She retorted in an annoyed tone, "What do you think I will do to her? Henry is my grandson. Do you think I'm too old and useless to deal with this?"

Henry's father couldn't help frowning after being scolded by his mother. But still, he explained, "Mom, that's not what I mean. That woman hasn't met any of our family members yet. You might shock her."

The other end of the line fell silent. Then the old lady asked in disbelief, "Henry hasn't brought her even to meet you?"

"No, he hasn't. That's why we are planning to visit them in a couple of days." All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The old lady was rendered speechless again. She wondered how Henry could get married without even introducing his woman to his parents.

She was so angry that she wanted to rush to them right at this time.

Because of this, she made up his mind. She was going to visit Lea, but she told them not to let Henry know.

Henry's parents immediately called him to come over. When the old lady came face to face with Lea, another bomb exploded in front of her.

Lea was pregnant. The old lady was so angry that her heart suddenly ached.

She thought that Henry's parents made a big mistake of letting him do whatever he wanted.

She didn't know Lea's background. What if she was just a gold digger who used the baby in her belly to threaten the Qin family?

Thinking about this possibility, she felt a little dizzy.

But Lea behaved well in front of her, so she thought that she wasn't as bad as she expected.

When she left their house, she immediately called someone to investigate her family background.

She found out that her family wasn't that bad. Her father and two brothers had decent jobs, and she was a stewardess before.

She could accept her as her granddaughter-in-law.

After all, Lea and Henry had already gotten married,

and she was even pregnant.

She thought that it was time for both families to sit around and discuss their wedding ceremony.

She urged Henry's parents to meet Lea's parents. She wanted to know their stand about this.

How could they just agree that their daughter got married without even meeting the man's family?

She had never thought that the couple

didn't inform both of their families.

As a matter of fact, Henry had only called home to inform his mom about his marriage on the day that they also went to get the marriage certificates.

Then all of a sudden, the old lady also heard about it.

Before Henry's parents could even do something, the old lady also visited Lea's father. When she introduced herself as Henry's grandmother, he was stunned.

But he was more shocked when he heard the news. He had no idea that his daughter had already married Henry.

So when the old lady left, he rushed to Lea's house. In fear that their father might do something wrong out of anger, his two sons followed him. The three of them waited for Henry to come home.

While waiting for Henry, Lea's father came to realize that she had to be blamed too.

Although he was mad at Henry, he knew that it was not all his fault.

Marriage was an agreement between two people. At this moment, he felt so embarrassed of his daughter's ignorance.

When he saw Henry entering the house, his anger rose again. He pointed at the seat beside Lea and said, "Sit down."

Henry didn't say anything. He just obediently sat next to his wife.

He thought that this would definitely be a long and serious talk. Actually, he was surprised that Lea's father looked so calm.

He knew that no one could control his temper, so he was wondering how he was able to contain himself now. Perhaps he considered that his future grandchild was now in his daughter's belly.

The truth was, Lea's father had already accepted the fact that this couple was inseparable. Although he could scold Henry as much as he wanted, he couldn't force his daughter to leave him.

This realization made his anger gradually fade away.

He picked up the glass from the table and took a sip of water. After taking a deep breath, he said slowly, "Since you have already registered your marriage, I know I can't separate you anymore." Nervousness was written all over Henry's face as he waited for Lea's father to continue.

His father-in-law saw how agitated he looked when their eyes met. Then he continued, "Let your parents know that I am inviting them to dinner."

Henry felt elated at what he heard.

Finally, their families could meet. As long as everything went well during dinner, they could all plan their wedding ceremony smoothly.

But if that was the end of the story and the two could hold their wedding ceremony smoothly, Lea wouldn't have called Rachel and complained to her.

When Jack heard everything from Rachel, he said, "Don't worry. I'll check for some updates from Henry later."

Rachel also knew that she should not worry too much about it. But Lea was her best friend. It was impossible for her not to fret.

He assured her once again, "I'll go and ask Henry what happened. By the way, I was on the phone with Mom just now, but I hung up when I heard Dad arguing with her. Can you go and see what's going on?"

When she heard what he said, her attention was immediately diverted, so she replied, "Okay, I'll go and check on them." Her room was on the second floor, so she could clearly see the living room below. She saw that Jonathan and Tracy were both sitting quietly on the sofa.

She could hear the sound of the TV, but they were obviously not watching.

Tracy was busy peeling an orange while Jonathan was reading a book.

From the looks of it, she could tell that they really fought.

She thought of going downstairs to see what was going on.

After peeling the orange, Tracy was about to put one segment into her mouth,

when Jonathan suddenly closed his book and glanced at her. He cleared his throat and said, "Give me some."

She glared at him and asked, "Why?"

He put down the book and sat solemnly like an elementary school student who did something wrong.

Rachel stopped taking steps down and watched them.

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have argued with you," said Jonathan.

Tracy didn't say anything. She just snorted. This time, Jonathan apologized, "I'm sorry."

A smile appeared on her face in an instant. She then handed half of the orange to him.

Seeing that the problem seemed to have been solved, Rachel ran back to her room. As soon as she closed the door, she giggled.

She had never expected that she would witness one of the old couple's romantic moments.

Thinking that she must report to Jack, she took her phone and dialed his number.

Throughout her stay in the Fu family, she had always thought that Jonathan was in charge of everything, and Tracy was just an obedient housewife.

After all, he was the one who handled and resolved all family issues.

She never expected that he was a submissive husband when he and Tracy were alone.

The next morning, Rachel observed the couple while they were having breakfast, and she confirmed that they had both gone back to normal.

After breakfast, she sent a message to Jack. "Everything is back to normal."

After just a short while, he replied, "Thank you, my dearest wife." His sweetness brought warmth in her heart.

She raised her hand to touch her face, knowing that she had blushed.

When they finished exchanging a few messages, she accompanied Jonathan outside for a walk as part of their daily routine.

And when they came back to the house, she was surprised to see two visitors.

They were a middle-aged man who looked quiet and a cute little boy.

The moment Rachel entered the house, the little boy rushed straight into her arms like a cannonball. His father stood up from the sofa and shouted anxiously, "Mendes!"

But the boy just ignored him. He was so excited to see Rachel, who he hadn't seen for a long time.
