John raised his little head, and said in a proud tone, "Of course, my brother-in-law treated me very well!"
Daniel was happy and satisfied with little John's words. Janet smiled, and when she looked towards the car, she asked, "Where's Sally?"
"Sally's quite busy choosing dresses for Nicole," said Jerry. They then got inside the car.
Sven and Nicole's wedding ceremony was scheduled to be held in less than ten days, and the two powerful families were really busy.
Jerry drove them straight back to the Royal Mansion Neighbourhood, and stopped at Mansion No. 8 first.
Ella and Samuel were already waiting for them with lunch. They were quite happy to see them come back home.
"Daddy, mommy, why did you abandon me? Is it really because I'm so ugly?" asked John. He was in his mother's arms, and he looked at his mother with a discontented look on his face as he repeated what Janet had told him back in America.
Janet giggled, and thought that the kid really had a good memory! And he took her jokes on him serious.
Ella pretended to be angry, and stared at her daughter. She said, "Who's the one that said that my John is ugly? I'll punch him, or her..."
John instantly held his mother's neck, while pointing his finger at Janet. He said, "It was sister, and she even peeped on me when I was having my bath!"
John's childish words made everyone present in the house burst into laughter.
Daniel whispered to Janet's ear, "Why haven't you ever peeped in on me when I was taking a shower?"
Janet's face instantly flushed red, and she pinched the tittering man beside her. She said, "Don't be so shameless!"
"I'm not ashamed, I don't care about shame with my wife!" said Daniel.
Janet quickly covered his mouth, and then she took a glance at the other people around. Luckily, no one heard their conversation.
"No more of your nonsense!" protested Janet.
Daniel grabbed her hand and kissed it, and after that he dragged her to the living room.
At lunch time, Janet felt that it was strange that Samuel and Ella didn't ask Daniel a single question about his plans for their marriage.
Before, Samuel had kept worrying whether Daniel would take responsibility for Janet or not. They had already been to America for more than two weeks, but now it seemed that he didn't ask not even a single question.
What's more, he was now even having some nice talks with Daniel.
Janet felt it was really odd.
After finishing their lunch, Daniel was just about to go back to the company. Spark drove Daniel's car from mansion No. 9, and before he got inside his car, Daniel held Janet in his arms, and said, "Go inside and sleep."
Janet agreed and nodded her head to him. She had always stayed together with him when they were in America, and she wasn't used to being separated from him now.
Daniel understood her feelings and smiled, and whispered to her ear, "Go to the Waterside Apartment Complex tonight."
Janet's face flushed red again, and she pinched his hand. She replied to him with two simple words, "No way!"
She then ran back to the mansion.
Daniel looked at her back, his eyes filled with warmth.
Inside mansion No. 8
Ella saw her daughter coming in and wearing a happy and sweet look on her face. She then tittered at her, "What? He just left. Miss him now?"
Samuel then echoed his wife's words and let out an exaggerated sigh. He said, "As the saying goes, a grown daughter can't be kept at home!"
'But Daniel, you brat, you're lucky to have my daughter!' thought Samuel.
Janet's face flushed bright red again, and she stared at her parents, and said, "I don't want to talk to you anymore. I have to go to bed now!"
Then she went upstairs, jumping with joy.
