Chapter 24 the Bath Towel is Torn off
Bang!
They both fall on the cold floor.
“Luke, listen up. Jenny is pregnant, don’t bully her...” As the voice gets nearer, the half closed door is
pushed open.
Mrs. Lu gradually turns shocked when she stares at them at the door.
That...
His grandson is far bolder than she expected!
When Luke and Jenny turn to make eye contact with her, Mrs. Lu immediately fakes blindness. She
turns back and mumbles, “Old people have poor eyesight. Everything becomes vague...”
Luke and Jenny go speechless.
After Mrs. Lu leaves the bathroom, Luke looks down at Jenny.
The seriousness in his eyes is a bit scary for Jenny. She subconsciously turns aside and catches her
dress tightly, mumbling, “You get off me...”
Luke says nothing, casting a glance at her belly. He seems to think of something, narrowing his eyes,
and he asks in a suspicious and cold tone, “You’re not pregnant?”
“I...” Jenny bites her lip. She didn’t believe he had such sharp eyes. Since her lie is exposed, she
stumbles, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it. Your grandma is pushy, so I...”
She continues to convince him, “I didn’t mean to come here. Your grandma kept me here. I tried a
couple of times to tell the truth, but she always interrupted me.”
Luke’s frowning eyebrows gradually relax as he listens to her.
She is not pregnant.
Luke grabs the towel, wraps himself and stands up, before Jenny crawls up in panic. Her face flushes
as she tidies up her clothes and says, “I’m sorry. I really didn’t mean it. I’m leaving now...”
She did pull down Luke’s towel. How embarrassing!
Luke lowers his head, muttering, “From today, you’ll live in my house.”
Jenny looks up at him, looking confused.
She tells him she is forced to stay here before. Why he invites her to stay here?
Luke’s eyes flash with a smile when he looks at her adorable face. As he wipes his wet hair, he
explains the reason.
“My grandma has a heart problem, so any provocation could be risky. If you told her you are not
pregnant, it would be a huge attack to her. If anything happened, you would feel sad.”
Jenny looks reluctant, biting her fingers.
It’s unbelievable that his grandma who is in a poor condition looks vigorous.
Luke lifts his thin lips at the sight of Jenny’s upset look, and says, “Besides, negative rumors about you
still have an influence. You will be attacked by reporters if you go out.”
Jenny finds it make sense but living in his house...
She looks up carefully to look at Luke and her heart beats strongly when they make eye contact. She
immediately lowers her head down and hesitates before says, “If you don’t mind, I will bother you some
days...”
Luke says okay.
He finds Jenny quite adorable with a flushed face.
At lunchtime, Jenny and Luke get downstairs together. Mrs. Lu can’t hide her smile when seeing them.
She runs to hold Jenny and says softly, “The stairs have been mopped. Be careful.”
Jenny almost chokes herself.
At the glance of Luke, Jenny has no choice but to nod, awkward but obedient, “Okay, I will.”
...
The maids find Mrs. Lu has smiled all the time and become more and more happily ever since Jenny
came here.
Mrs. Lu has not only made clothes for her future great grandson, but also gone shopping every day
with the butler for fresh fruits and food to make soup for her future daughter-in-law, which has aroused
the maids’ jealousy.
The lady will marry a handsome, rich man whose grandma shows great care to her as well! And she
will enjoy a large fortune and power as her son is born with a high status in this family!
On a nice day, Jenny learns knitting with Mrs. Lu in the warm sun.
“Dear, you got the wrong direction.” Mrs. Lu teaches Jenny patiently, step by step, “It’ll get loose
hooked from inside out, but it’ll work well from the opposite way.”
Nodding her head, Jenny uses the needle clumsily, “Like this, the opposite way?”All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Soon two hours have passed.
When Luke drives back home, he finds Jenny and Mrs. Lu in the garden and the dim sum and tea are
barely eaten on the table.
Jenny, lowering her head, is hooking skillfully and silently with colorful threads, under the yellow twilight
which penetrates through the gaps between leaves. No one would be willing to interrupt this wonderful
moment.
Jenny compresses her lips and smiles at Mrs. Lu. Luke abruptly but silently holds his steps, looking
mysterious in his eyes.
Ever since Jenny stayed in his house, she has always amused Mrs. Lu. Even he himself has felt more
hilarious at home.
She is indeed adorable of no arrogance.
“Sir, welcome back.”
As the maid’s respectful greeting travels to Mrs. Lu, she waves at him, “Luke, come over!”
Luke goes to them, “Have you spent the whole afternoon siting right here?”
“What? Does it bother you?” Mrs. Lu rolls eyes at him and points at the rough baby doll in Jenny’s
hand, saying happily, “My dear is really smart. She’s a rapid learner!”
Jenny feels flattered and smiles, “Thanks, because I have a great teacher.”
“Oh, how sweet of you!” Mrs. Lu says happily. She rushes back inside, seeming to think of something,
“Oh, the soup might be done!”
Mrs. Lu leaves the two of them in the garden.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Jenny shakes the doll and looks shy, saying, “I made this for the first time.
Does it look bad?”
Luke takes it over to have a look. He flashes with a smile, “A little bit.”
Both eyes aren’t symmetric.
His answer is out of her expectation, so she tries to take the doll back angrily. But Luke leaves with it
and says in a happy voice, “Go to have a dinner.”
“Luke, give it back to me!” Jenny runs after him, “I don’t expect you to like it!”
...
