By the time she arrived home, Lisa had already finished cooking dinner and was waiting for her; as was Leo. One adult and one child sat on the sofa, seemingly looking at a picture book.

"Auntie, is this an alligator? Why is it so ugly and it even has a big mouth?"

"...Perhaps the alligators think they're very handsome." Lisa thought about it before answering seriously.

At this exchange, Jennie laughed.

"Or maybe the alligators think they're the most beautiful ones." There was a ferocious alligator on the picture book but it didn't say the gender.

Lisa suddenly turned around to see Jennie standing behind them. Likewise, she said this in a serious tone.

Jennie's face was deadpan, nonetheless, Lisa felt like she was teased still.

"Aunty, you're back. We're waiting for you to eat dinner. Aunt Lisa made a lot of tasty food." Leo also turned around and revealed a huge smile.

"You want to freeload a meal?" Jennie raised her eyebrows and asked Leo who wanted to drool at the sight of food.

Leo's face turned red embarrassed right then. "Father had to attend to some matters and Grandmother said I could eat here. Can I, Aunty?" he said, timidly.

As Leo asked, she secretly raised his head to look at Jennie. she was embarrassed but eager at the same time.

"If you can eat by yourself, then it's ok." Don't expect her to feed her!

Leo immediately nodded his head and said, "I can eat by myself!" In reality, Leo ate by himself the majority of the time. Of course, Mother Kim and the servants would look after him.

Lisa patted Leo's head. This scene, why did it feel like it was a conversation between a strict mother and an obedient son? Although Jennie acted like she didn't like kids, she rarely rejected Leo's requests. She was gentle, albeit hidden under the cold surface.

While Jennie wasn't back, the food was kept warm in pots. Lisa went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes and Leo looked at Jennie before walking into the kitchen as well.

"Auntie, Leo will help you carry the dishes." Little Leo said considerately to the busy Lisa. At this time, Jennie who'd come over as well heard his words. It was unclear what she thought of, but her expression changed. "There's no need. Go out and sit there." She said, coldly.

How would Leo who got rejected dare to say another word? he immediately walked out and obediently sat on his chair. In this house, he was scared of Aunty the most. he didn't really have the courage to talk back when he saw Aunt Jen's cold face!

When Jennie saw Leo sitting down, she carefully picked up the dishes on the counter and brought it out.

Lisa silently laughed at this scene.

Once the dishes were out, the three began to eat. Leo tried his best to eat with his spoon. Lisa sat by him and served him some food. Jennie raised her eyebrows at this scene. Her eyes sparkled but didn't say anything. She wasn't extreme to the point of being jealous of a little kid!

Leo was very obedient and wise. he used the spoon nimbly and hesitated before carefully grabbing a piece of potato and placing it in Jennie's dish.

"Aunty, eat." After she gave Jennie a piece of potato, Leo did the same for Lisa. he smiled widely at her and said, "Aunt Lisa, eat too."

The atmosphere on the dining table suddenly became harmonious and happy. They were like a family of three.

After dinner, Leo and little white tiger and the little golden turtle went to play. There were only Lisa and Jennie. At this time, Jisoo had called to report the development.
