At that time, Lea's father only heard the story where Henry was kicked out of his house because he had a fight with his family for Lea's sake.
He didn't know the real reason.
He became pitiful towards Henry.
After all, the man was his son-in-law.
Considering Lea was pregnant, the man would grow soft eventually.
Back then, Lea complained that Henry's father was so cruel to have driven him out of his own house like that.
But after he explained everything to her, she couldn't help but be impressed by her father-in-law.
When Lea told this to Rachel, the woman burst into laughter. She didn't expect that the old man would have that much tricks up his sleeves.
As they were talking, Henry came downstairs holding a plate of fruits. He placed it on the table. "Fruits for the pregnant woman," he announced.
Lea's nose wrinkled. "Do you have to mention stress I'm a pregnant woman all the time?"
"It's the truth." He shrugged.
She scoffed, turning away.
Henry didn't know what was wrong with his wife. His face soured as well.
'No wonder they kept on fighting,' Rachel thought as she stared at the way they interact with each other.
She had always wondered how a gentleman like Henry would get into fights with Lea.
It seemed that Henry was still o
er. It wasn't as if she was persuading Rachel not to have a kid.
"That's also true." Lea smiled awkwardly.
Jack placed his hand on the back of Rachel's chair. Although his hand wasn't on her, she felt a sense of pressure pushing down on her shoulders.
"If you continue trying to convince my wife not to have a baby, I'll tell Henry about it.
Does he even know what you're thinking?"
Suddenly, those two sentences spurred through her mind like a tornado.
At the mention of her husband, Lea raised her hands over her hand as if to block herself from the man's scrutinized glare. "I was wrong," she wailed. "I'm talking nonsense here. Please don't tell Henry."
If Henry knew what she was talking about, that would be the end of her!
Jack smirked, turning to look at Rachel.
She innocently waved her hands up in the air.
"I certainly don't agree with her," she stated.
Jack nodded in satisfaction. "Time for lunch. Let's go downstairs, okay?"
However, there was something about their conversation that stopped her in her tracks.
When did they discuss about having a baby?
She pursed her lips.
When they had lunch and left Henry's house, Rachel couldn't help but ask him, "Have we talked about having a baby?"
Jack's eyes gleamed. "Why did you ask?"
