Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear novel Chapter 6

Alexander was left enraged at the dining table but because of what Jeanne said, he was unable to lash out at her.

Jenifer, Jasmine, Joshua and even Eden who stayed back for dinner were forced to suppress their anger as well.

Jeanne was as feisty as ever and she was bold enough to go up against anyone. However, something was different about her. She was no longer the rash and impatient girl who disregarded consequences. Everything she said was infuriating but true, hence no one was able to pick on her mistakes.

Jenifer glared at her viciously.

Back then, she used Jeanne's temper and attitude to make her soft and tender side stand out so that others would sympathize with her and blame Jeanne's personality.

Now, she seemed to have lost the advantage.

Jeanne was smarter than before.

Jenifer grinned though. No matter how smart Jeanne became, she was just a single mother being forced to marry a lowlife. Her life was over.

Jeanne took George back to the room. She did not have the interest or the time to figure out their schemes. She knew better than anyone that those people down there were cold-blooded and merciless.

She looked at George. "Had enough?"

George nodded. "When you guys were arguing, I was eating."

"Good boy," Jeanne praised the boy.

Before they came back, Jeanne had prepared her son for situations like this and her smart boy did not let her down at all.

On the second day, Jeanne took her boy downstairs and ate like normal. They even had a walk in the front yard as if nothing had happened.

At night, when Alexander came home from work, he told Jeanne to have dinner with the Locke family.

Jeanne simply dressed herself up for the event and brought George along.

Alexander wore a gloomy look and asked, "Why are you bringing him?"

"He's my son. Of course, I'm bringing him along."

"Do you know where you're going?"

"When you attended important events, you brought Joshua as well."

"Are you doing this right now?" Alexander's anger was brewing.

"If I were to go against you, I wouldn't be here in the first place. Why are you so concerned? Are you afraid that the Locke family would say no to the wedding? I thought you guys mentioned that I have a son when you negotiated with them?"

Alexander was silenced by her argument.

Jenifer was a woman with high EQ. She knew Alexander dared not lash out on Jeanne at this sensitive timing, so she said, "Alex, Jeanne's right. When we talked to the Locke family, they already knew that she had a son. So, she might as well bring him along to meet the opposite, just take it as a preparation for the future."

"Whatever!" Alexander bellowed before he went into the car.

Jenifer followed him into the rear seat.

Jeanne and her son as well as Jasmine and Eden went into the other cars respectively.

The three cars arrived at the most luxurious restaurant in South Hampton.

The jockeys came over and opened the doors for them.

Alexander led his family inside the restaurant and headed to the VIP room to meet the Locke family.

There was a large roundtable in the room and the Locke family was already seated.

Damian and Octavia, their eldest son, Hugh, and his wife, Naomi and Hugh's son, Jeremiah. Thedus was also there.

When the Lawrence family arrived, everyone stood up and welcomed them.

Thedus was reluctant to accept the wedding proposal at first because regardless of what he did, he could not just accept a single mother to be his wife.

However, when he laid eyes on Jeanne for the first time, his eyes gleamed.

Jeanne beautifully exceeded his expectations.

Her wavy hair, delicate face, voluptuous body, and everything about her made her an angel on Earth,

except for the fact that she had a child.

His eyes widened. It was his mother who nudged him to bring him back from his awe.

Thedus got up and welcomed everyone warmly.

After everyone got seated, the introduction started and was followed by dinner.

Throughout dinner, only the head of both families spoke to each other. The others barely made a sound.
