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

Chapter 27

“Thank you, Mom.” Jennie thanked her politely after accepting the gift.

Madam Manoban was speechless.

Her heart ached.

She really liked that bracelet.

“My mom really does love this bracelet; she has it on all the time.” Lisa smiled and said, “You’ve fair skin and jade would look good on you. I’ll get you a pair of jade earrings and necklace another day for you to wear it as a set.”

He wasn’t loud, but Madam Manoban and Krystal heard him clearly.

Madam Manoban was getting jealous now. This was the son she raised, but he’d never even been this thoughtful towards her. “It’s true when they say a son forgets his mother once he has a wife. Well, when have you gotten me such things?”

Lisa smiled. “Mom, are you getting jealous of your daughter-in-law? Didn’t you always say you wished to bear me a younger sister? I don’t have one now, but you can consider your daughter-in-law your actual daughter. Shouldn’t you be happy that I’m doting on your daughter?”

Madam Manoban had no idea how to respond to him.

She was about to say that she didn’t have an intention to see her as a daughter.

But given Lisa’s temper, it was best she didn’t mention anything negative about this woman.

If she embarrassed Jennie, it would only strain her relationship with her son.

She wasn’t so foolish.

“There’s a jade auction next month, I think the design of that jewelry set suits you. You painfully gave away your beloved bangle to Jennie, so I will make it up to you by getting that set for you. How’s that?”

Madam Manoban and Manoban Yuncheng were very loving. Although she was already over 40, Manoban Yuncheng still showered her with love, as if she was a little princess.

Hence, Lisa followed in his footsteps and usually pampered Madam Manoban too.

He agreed to get the jade jewelry for Madam Manoban the moment she brought it up.

“Well, you said it yourself.” Madam Manoban felt her importance in her son’s heart and didn’t feel so upset anymore.

“Mm, I said it.”

Lisa smiled and asked Jennie, “Are you tired, do you need to sleep? I’ll take you to the bedroom for a rest?”

Jennie wasn’t tired, but she wanted to get out of this spot.

Although Old Madam and Madam Manoban seemed like easy-going people, she didn’t feel comfortable being in front of the elders.

She quietly responded, “Mm.”

“Alright, I’ll take you to the bedroom for a nap then.”

Lisa turned to Old Madam and Madam Manoban. “Mom, Grandma, you’ve seen her now. It’s about time you had your naps, right? I’m a little tired too, I’ll catch some sleep now. Call me up when it’s time for dinner.”

With that, he was about to leave with Jennie.

“Lisa.”

Krystal’s voice rang out.

Lisa furrowed his brows slightly as he turned to face her.

Krystal stood up and bit her lip. “What happened the other time… I apologize to you on Mino's behalf. He was too impulsive that day. In fact, he regretted it the moment he left.”
