My Supermodel Wife

Irene glanced at James angrily, then put the fruit plate in front of Lilia. "Lilia, ignore him. These fruits are specially prepared for you, please eat them if you like!"

"Thank you sister-in-law!" Lilia politely thanked her.

At that moment, James sat across from her, unable to take his eyes off her stomach.

Then he saw Jean put the gift box on the table, and he snorted emotionlessly. "There is no shortage of anything in the house, so don't buy unnecessary things!"

Obviously, James is still pissed off with Jean for taking Lilia overseas during Chinese New Year.

Hearing that voice, the man sat next to Lilia and replied indifferently, "Lilia bought it for her brother and sister-in-law."

'I'm so dead!' James choked and glared at him angrily.

"She bought it for me?" James walked forward smiling, opened the gift box and said to Lilia, "My favorite fruit! I love this! You really make me happy, Lilia!"

Lilia was holding a slice of apple and chewing it. After swallowing it, she said, "If you like it, I still have some of them at home. I'll bring you the next time I come."

"No, this is enough. Lilia, how about the fruit, is it delicious?"

Irene stood at the table, leaned forward and looked at Lilia. Her gaze was graceful and her smile showed kindness.

When she saw Lilia, she nodded in satisfaction. Irene then stretched her hand towards her and said mysteriously, "There's still a lot in the kitchen, so just eat as much as you want. Ah, you better go upstairs for a bit, I want to show you something."

In response to this, Lilia put down her fork and walked hand in hand with Irene to the second floor.

In the living room, James and Jean fell silent.

A few seconds later, he also stood up. "Come on, let's go and see!"

Despite the anger in his heart, this younger brother was still a guest.

The man raised his eyebrows slightly, and followed his older brother upstairs after nodding.

Lilia was seen standing at the door in a daze.

Her? sister-in-law stood beside her and said with a smile, "How? Do you like it? These cribs are made by people from abroad. Good quality and really tasty. There are also clothes that can be worn for boys and girls. Come in and have a look."

Lilia shifted her gaze, she clearly saw the hope and longing from her sister-in-law's eyes.

She took her sister-in-law's arm and thanked her sincerely. "Sister-in-law, sorry to trouble you!"

Lilia hadn't even thought about it before, and yet this nursery room had been perfectly laid out for her.

The room is very warm, with toys hanging over the crib.

The floor was covered with soft carpet, even the walls were painted with the colors of starry sky, and many unopened toys were placed in the corners.

Irene slowly entered the room together with Lilia, and she looked around every corner with satisfaction. "It's not a hassle, it's all for your child. Look at those toys, they can all be up to the age of seven. You know, ever since James heard that you were pregnant, he's really happy. I've never seen him do anything with such enthusiasm in many years."

Lilia was deeply moved when she heard those words.

At the same time, she could also feel the regret in her sister-in-law's tone.

It's true that she doesn't have to worry about wealth in life, but her biggest regret is that she can't have children of her own yet.

At lunch, the four of them sat at a long, spacious table in the kitchen hall.

As the waiter brought them various kinds of delicious meals, a small red envelope was thrown at the man's elbow by his older brother James.

Lilia raised her eyes, then saw James take out a red envelope two palms wide from his pocket and hand it across the table.

A gentle smile crossed his face as he said, "Lilia, you didn't come back during Chinese New Year, so here is your red envelope! Take this gift!"

The woman then looked at the heavily thick red envelope in surprise. She was a little embarrassed by it.

But before she refused, Irene pressured her. "Lilia, hurry and take it. It's our family's tradition. New year's money is a blessing!"

"Thank you!"

When Lilia took it with both hands, her eyes twitched a little.

She had not received the so-called New Year's money in years.

When she received the red envelope, it felt heavy in her palm and caused ripples in her heart.

As for the late reunion lunch, Lilia was a bit sorry.

James and Irene are afraid that the dishes they served don't match her appetite, and they keep asking her about her preferences as they eat.

After eating a plate of rice, Lilia looked at her slightly bloated stomach and wanted to cry!

...

The older brother took his younger brother to his room after dinner as usual.

Meanwhile, Irene took the fur coat and let Lilia put it on. The two walked out of the old house and strolled around the garden.

"Do you know whether it's a boy or a girl?"

Irene carefully patted her shoulders, her eyes lightly falling onto Lilia's white face.

After hearing that voice, Lilia shook her head. "We still can't see it, it's only been three months and it looks like we still have to wait."

"When are you going to go for another check-up? If you have a set date, can you please tell me? My husband and I want to accompany you!"

Lilia didn't refuse, and after smiling and answering, she hesitantly asked, "Do you like boys or girls?"

"I like them all!" Irene answered without hesitation. "Either boy or girl, this is the first child of our extended family. Don't worry, my husband and I are not old-fashioned. Our family doesn't follow the patriarchal line. As long as the child is born, we will love them as they are!"

In that case, Lilia looked at Irene with mixed emotions. She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips and smiled.

Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind. If this sister-in-law were a mother, she must be the most understanding, compassionate and gentle mother.

...

Inside the study, the man was seen sitting across the table, with smoke and mist between his fingers.

James was making tea, and when he saw his brother smoking, he furrowed his brows. "Lilia is pregnant, are you still smoking like this at home?

The man looked away. "No."

James then clicked his tongue but changed the topic, "I heard you went to Parma. Is that true?"

"Well, I met an acquaintance in LA and have to go back!"

The answer made James' gaze grow darker and deeper. "Why didn't you explain the situation over there? Did they embarrass you this time? I heard from Clifford that they all wish you could live there. Remember, they are just a bunch of bandits!

James' impression of Parma was not too good.

It starts from the fact that when Hans then returned with his brother, some people were sent from Parma to find out about Jean's whereabouts.

Fortunately,? they did a lot of preparation for the cover- up, including Jean's original identity.

Hans said that those people disagreed with Jean's departure from Parma even though the man was healed at that time.

So who's to blame?

James should just blame his brother because he's so damn good that nobody could outsmart him!
