I'm Secretly Married to a Bigshot [ JenLisa adaptation ]

Chapter 63

“What a wonderful girl.” Old Madam’s smile widened as she continued, “Do stay the night. I have a lot to tell you as well.”

“Erm…”

Jennie turned towards Lisa for his opinion.

Lisa nodded. “Since Grandma wants us to stay for the night, we’ll stay then.”

Old Madam was elated. She held onto Jennie and asked smilingly, “Will you go for a walk with me after dinner?”

“Sure.”

Jennie would agree to whatever Old Madam said.

She looks sweet and cute, exactly the type that elders preferred.

Old Madam liked her even more since she was obedient.

In the dining room.

Jennie sat beside Old Madam instead of Lisa.

The dishes that Jennie enjoyed were placed in front of her for easy reach as per Old Madam’s request.

When Jennie casually mentioned that she liked a dessert that she ate at Manoban Residence previously, Old Madam immediately asked the kitchen to prepare it for her.

Old Madam doted on her more than her two grandsons.

Lisa and Jisoo weren’t bothered by it.

Since there were only males in the household, it was only natural that Old Madam acted like this with the addition of a female.

The Manoban family all knew that Old Madam longed for a granddaughter, but she only got grandsons.

Old Madam had two sons of her own.

Lisa had another male cousin.

Together with the two brothers, Old Madam had three grandsons.

But not a single granddaughter.

Jennie’s looks and personality were exactly what Old Madam wanted in her granddaughter. So, she treated her granddaughter-in-law just like her real granddaughter.

Lisa was happy to see someone dote on his wife.

The only person uncomfortable at the dining table was Madam Manoban.

Recalling Krystal’s call earlier today, she turned pale and threw her fork and knife on the plate with a loud “Bam.”

The wealthy households were very particular about table etiquette.

The fundamental rule was that they shouldn’t make unnecessary noises while eating.

Madam Manoban grew up in a wealthy household and knew this since young.

With the loud “Bam,” everyone at the dining table halted their conversations.

Everyone turned to look at her.

Old Madam raised her brows. “Wenpei, what are you doing?”

“Mom.” Madam Manoban picked up the napkin, wiped her mouth gently, and threw the napkin on the table. She looked sharply at Jennie and said coldly, “I just recalled something and have to say it now.”

“If you have to say anything, say it after the meal.” Old Madam was unhappy with her actions. With a displeased tone, she said, “Must you say it during the meal?”

Seeing Old Madam’s expression, Madam Manoban did not dare to continue.

But thinking back to what Krystal said, she mustered her courage and said coldly, “I have to say it now since everyone is around. I’m sorry for disturbing your meal, Mom, but this matter is very important.”
