107 Another Baby?

Vanessa Zhou kept her cool and silence after being persuaded to come with the 'engaged couple' to City T.

While in the plane, Dan asked the attendant for some chamomile tea. However, when it arrived, it was served before his sister.

Vanessa's hazel eyes looked up at him. "What are you trying to pull?"

She was actually observing them from when they were at the company until the plane had ascended. They looked like a normal couple, with Madeline grabbing Dan's arm from time -to-time, flashing a sweet smile on her face.

Her aloof of a brother, which she started to have when his girl left him without an explanation, remained indifferent, occasionally nodding at his fiancée.

'Did Mom really made him succumb to her orders?'

When he ordered relaxing tea for his sister, he was giving a prophylaxis for her reaction as he will be revealing their secrets on the plane.

His crew had signed a special confidentiality agreement and it was a blessing that cameras will not roam around several thousand feet above the ground.

He did not want to risk possible injuries for his wife if his sister reacts thoroughly if they tell her after they reached the Igarashi household.

Vanessa was a bit surprised that her brother had a faint smile.

"Just drink your tea." Dan eyed the cup before her.

Her eyes roamed around the private plane as she sipped her tea.

She almost spat it when she saw Madeline seductively winked at the female attendant.

Dan followed her gaze and laughed at her reaction.

Vanessa quickly took some tissues to wipe her lips. She glared at him. "What are you laughing about?"

"Van-gie..." His tone suddenly turned serious.

Madeline put on her eye mask and headphones and played some music.

Vanessa glanced at her movements. This is something serious.

Dan cleared his throat. "The engagement that you saw in the news...was fake."

Her eyes widened, but she remained calm. She drank more tea. "And?"

He pursed his lips and breathed in deeply. "Midori and I got back together."

She gulped. She was actually expecting that they would. Even though everyone believed that what they had in high school was puppy love, when she saw her brother a few years after Midori left him, she believed that he was not simply playing around.

When he met Midori again and told his sister of a child, Vanessa knew he will get his girl back whatever it takes.

That is why she was shocked when the news of his engagement came. However, her infant son made it hard for her to immediately fly back to City S to stop the ceremony and put some sense into his head.

When they invited her to go to City T, she was smart enough to believe that her brother has some tricksup his sleeve.

"Okay." She remained calm.

"Actually, she's pregnant." Dan bit his lip, anticipating her reaction.

One second, two seconds...

Vanessa was dumbfounded for half a minute, clutching the cup, her mouth gaping, before shefinally snapped.

"What?! Another baby?" She stood up from her seat and bolted to grab his collar.

"Yes." Dan was calm.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Madeline suddenly appeared before them. "Why do you need to skip theimportant part of the explanation? You make things complicated that way!"

"What important explanation?" Vanessa was furious, almost choking her brother with his own clothes. She glared at Madeline.

"Fake Sis-in-law, Midori is your legal sister-in-law." Madeline flashed her a teasing smile.

"You...When did you get married?!" she screamed at her brother.

Dan remained silent, or more like, the tight collar did not permit him to speak.

"You knew that Mom especially hates broken engagements! How did you even think about setting a fake one!"

Dan used some force to free his throat. He coughed for a bit. "I didn't set it up, Mom did."

Madeline chuckled on the side, but returned to her seat and put on the devices she had on a while back. She will not let herself be hit by a stray bullet!

After glaring at the chuckling girl, Vanessa turned back to her brother.

"You! How could you even joke around?! This is serious! And you even got her pregnant again!"

That time, it hit Dan. He needed to clarify things about Manta.

"The kid I thought was mine is her nephew." He immediately replied.

Vanessa was a bit taken aback. She sat opposite him.

She surprisingly turned calm. "What are your plans then?"

"First, we see my wife." He had a warm smile.
