Chapter 110 - Her Type?

"Thank you for telling me." Jennet gave her husband a deep smooch on his cheek.

"Jerome and Susan Banner, they are your aides, right?" She asked again as she pulled her lips away from his cheek.

"Yes, they are." Hue replied to her as honest as he could. He could never lie to her and he would always be honest with her because he loves her so much.

He pulled her to sit on a long couch with him. On the couch he wrapped his long arms around her waist, pulling her closer to his body. Jennet sat comfortably on in front of him while leaning her back against his chest.

"Why do you have so much interest in my aides?" He asked again and brushed his high nose against her jawline and inhaled her scent deeper into his lungs.

He was getting a bit jealous. Grrr!

"Just wanting to know all about people who can be trusted," Jennet answered. She giggled, feeling ticklish when his nose touched her skin.

"You can trust me." Hue replied in a hushed voice as he kissed her cheek.

Jennet chuckled and pushed his face away from her face. "Stop it..." She nagged playfully at him, trying to stop him from seducing her with his kisses.

"What are you going to do with them?" Hue asked her with knitted brows as he eyed her.

He couldn't read her mind and was worried if she might try to hurt his people. Although he was not happy with his aides' performance before he still relies on their help and assistance to continue living in the human world.

"Don't harm them," he added with a soft voice. His soft and sexy voice while pleading her was enough to make Jennet felt threatened by his silent seduction.

"I'm not going to harm them. I just want to know who else is on your side. Who knows what the future holds for us, right?" Jennet replied to him. Her heartbeat fastened from time to time when she said those words. She was easily weakened by his sexy voice that haunted her every night.

She landed a kiss on his lips, savouring his sweet taste. "I'm not going to harm them." She whispered softly, enough for him to hear.

Suddenly Hue carried her in his arms and straight to the bed. He laid her down and kissed her intensely. Both of them were breathing heavily on the bed.

"I think we should lessen seducing each other like this..." Jennet whispered when Hue kneaded her breasts with his hot palms. It wasn't the right time for them to be intimate with each other. They promised not to have s** until next year.

"Hmm, you're right." Hue kissed her eyelids, "I'm about to go crazy wanting to taste you right now but I couldn't." He groaned when her hands roamed down his sexy abs.

"Well, after giving birth to our babies, let have lots of fun in bed," Jennet suggested. She wanted to spoil her husband and herself once she delivered their babies.

"Good suggestions. I'll put on the contraceptions as well so you won't get pregnant for as long as we want to enjoy ourselves." Hue added with a smile as he kept kissing her. They will have to make do with just kisses to satiate their desires until next year approaches.

Good luck, dear naive couple!

***

Up until Jennet taking her to leave, she didn't manage to meet either Jerome or Susan in the company. The couple was either going on-site inspection or in a meeting with clients.

At the moment, she took her family of three for a visit back to her home country. It wasn't in her plan on bringing Little Veen along but, since her sister had seen him, the bot had to tag along.

They boarded a plane to Country F and was the centre of attraction during the flight. It was all because of Hue and Little Veen who had an unrivalled good look. They were like two well-known models who went on an incognito trip sitting in the economy class.

Upon landing in Country F's international airport, Jennet felt so uneasy and she had the urge of not wanting to leave the plane. All of the fears she hid were freed before her very eyes.

"Don't worry. I'm with you." Hue comforted her troubled heart. "I won't let anyone hurt you." He smiled, giving her consolation.

Jennet nodded her head and smiled proudly at what he said. "Thank you, honey. I love you!"

"I love you too!" Little Veen interrupted from the side.

The couple smiled at the cute boy as they took their turn to pinch his chubby cheeks. Hue took the chances to pinch his cheek even harder, making the boy cried out loudly.

The family left the airport and hailed for a taxi that brought them straight to the Lockhart territory, where her grandpa resided. Her grandpa lived in the countryside of Country F.

The Lockhart had a huge territory to manage compared to other nobles. Each territory was divided into a smaller district which is managed by one of the Lockhart' family members. In each district, there will always be a Lockhart mingled among the commoners, helping and monitoring their needs and wants.

They also helped to develop any of rural areas in the district they handled. They will also act as peacemakers inside the district as well because each district has about ten thousand or more people and there had always been troubles brewing around if they aren't paying any attention to their people.

Jennet sat silently on one of the chairs when Grandpa Ingell Lockhart gave a stern look at Hue. Everyone inside the house was in an uproar when they arrived. Everyone was also shocked to know of Jennet's marriage. Grandpa Ingell had to calm everyone by taking the couple into his study for some 'questions and answers' session. Little Veen was taken away by her relatives to familiarize himself with his surrounding.

At the moment, the couple were sitting apart from each other because the rules inside the house stated, any of the granddaughters who brought a man home for the first time, no matter if they are already married or not, have to go through the evaluation also known as a duel with the in-laws. So, they are a stranger to each other.

"Hmm, is this man your type?" Grandpa Ingell shot a question to Jennet. He gave a Hue a sharp glare which made Hue's smile to fade slowly.

From Grandpa Ingell's point of view, Hue doesn't look so manly enough for his beloved granddaughter. He looked fragile. On top of that, he had long hair which made him look much feminine than his own granddaughter.

"He's all bones and has only that good look. No visible muscles and probably have low intellect." Grandpa Ingell added sharply and glanced again at the handsome man from top to bottom, evaluating him on first glance basis.

Hue was wearing long-sleeved sweatshirts and long pants, hiding his body. His long hair was tied into a low ponytail which tailed all the way down his bottom. Anyone who sees him would think he was a woman from the back.

"Does he knows about basic survival skills?" The stern grandpa asked again. He had lesser trust in a man with only good look like him. Who knows if his brain was empty as well? His granddaughter would suffer if he isn't as smart as he expected.

Each and every one of his family members must know skills of survival because living in the world requires skills to survive. No skills, it's hard to make a living in the harsh world of reality.

Grandpa Ingell is papa's father and is already at the age of ninety years old. Although he is already that old he is fit as a fiddle and still worked as an advisor for the rest of the nobles in Country F. He had always kept on a low profile and refused to appear on the news. Well, all of the Lockharts have the same upbringing as him and all refused to be known to the outside world. That's also the reason why not that many people knows about this noble family.

Jennet glanced at her husband who was clouded by a cloud of uncertainty. He looked like a pitiful huge dog who was about to be sent back to the shelter home. He looked so worried and it was visible on his face that was getting paler slowly.

"I love him so much, grandpa. He also loves me just the way I am." Jennet said, defending her husband. She knew grandpa was being fierce on purpose. She had known his nature although they have been apart for so many years.

Grandpa Ingell let out a low sigh. His dear granddaughter defended the frail-looking man without thinking of her own good. What had happened to her all these years? Grandpa Ingell wandered alone.

"My dear, people nowadays choose their partners based on their looks but failed to see their partners' heart. Since they choose looks more than their hearts, there are lots of people divorcing their spouses out there. I don't want you to regret your decision later on." Said Grandpa Ingell, trying to pound senses into his granddaughter's mind.

"I refuse to divorce him, grandpa," Jennet fought back. She had a look that was even more worried than her husband. She had started to love her husband with all her heart and she will not let him go that easily anymore.

"I love him so much and I would rather die than divorcing him." She said her absolute refusal.

"Shush, stop talking about dying!" Grandpa Ingell nagged at her. He disliked it if any of his children or grandchildren are talking about dying. They had a long way ahead of their life to know what real death means.

"No one is going to divorce anyone here. If anyone besides me dares to force you to divorce, I'll personally deal with them." He added with a low voice. His heart softened so easily when it comes to his beloved granddaughter.

He had not seen her for years and her attitude wasn't as what he expected. He heard rumours about her being rebellious but she isn't as rebellious as the rumours said.

Jennet smiled widely and so does Hue. Looks like grandpa won't let Hue go no matter what now.

"But, since you chose him as your partner in life, grandpa wants to know all of his survival skills. It will also mean, he will have to work together with me at the field. He will have to live a hard life and learn to appreciate everyone around him. He has to live like them to know their struggles so that he too can help them in the future once he masters the skills of survival." Grandpa Ingell said with stern and clear words.

Hue gulped and nearly shant his pants after hearing his words. Grandpa Ingell was so intimidating and he fears none. Hue felt so threatened over that realisation but he had to abide by his words. He had to make sure he can live up to his expectations.

After the 'questions and answers' session, the couple were separated again. Hue was immediately taken away from the Lockhart house to work in the fields and Grandpa Ingell went too.

Jennet couldn't say a word to her husband but only wishes him the best. She knew her grandpa meant well and she believed Hue can manage and gain her grandpa's trust.

Eliane came to visit her later that afternoon. She came alone and it seemed mama doesn't know about her location as well. The siblings took their time getting to know each other better.

"Did you tell papa that I am here?" Jennet asked when they sat at the living-room.

She told only Elaine about her visit to Country F. She didn't want to return to their home just yet because she couldn't find any courage to meet her mama. Mama had always been hateful towards her and only her. The reason behind her hate, Jennet had no idea.

"Papa knows except for mama. She isn't here. You don't have to worry about her," Eliane smiled, calming her heart. "Papa will come in the evening," Elaine told her with a wide smile.

"Thank you, Elaine." Jennet thanked her sister. She had put her trust in Elaine because she wanted to turn a new page in the chapter in her life. Her first step towards the new page would be to trust her own siblings.

"Where is your son?" Elaine looked around in hope to see the chubby little guy. But, there was no sign of him around.

"He was kidnapped by our aunties. They must have been taking him for a walk around the area in this place." Jennet answered her curiosity.

Little Veen had been a great help to distract the attention of her relatives from focusing on her husband. Otherwise, she would not be able to answer all of their questions about their marriage.

"What did grandpa say about your husband?" Elaine asked. Since Jennet came back and went straight to where grandpa resided, she knew Jennet wanted her grandpa's blessing on her marriage because mama would never agree to give her one.
