Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 42

After coming out of the supermarket, Edward drove Irene home. On the passanger seat, Irene could not wait to open the dried plum and put it in her mouth. If it was before, she would not believe that she would eat something so sour, but now she felt it tastes great.

Edward saw Irene's satisfied expression in the mirror, looking like a child.

After eating for a while, Irene got an idea. She picked up one and fed it into Edward's mouth. He couldn't resist his wife, so he forced himself to eat one. The sour flavor let Edward understand that his wife was really pregnant. Otherwise, how could she stand such sour taste?

Because it was too sour, Irene frowned. Seeing thia, Edward grinned.

Lunch was cooked by Edward. Edward thought Irene should be a little tired because if the shopping and asked her to go to rest, However, Irene insisted on helping Edward. The meal was cooked slowly by the couple. They ate slowly but joyfully.

During their nap, Madeline called them and asked Irene if she felt better. She invited them to return to the old house for dinner. And Edward's mother would come too.

"I have not seen grandma for a long time." Irene leaned into Edward's arms. "By the way, you did not tell her about the thing of that night,right? After all she is too old to worry abot us." 

Edward rubbed Irene's face and knew what she was worrying about. "No!"

There was silence in the bedroom. They embraced and fell asleep under the warm sunshine.

...

They drove to Madeline's house after map.

"Edward, grandma likes the desserts of Lee Shop. Shall we buy some?" Irene suggested.

Edward agreed. They went to Lee shop before they got to Madeline's house.

When they entered, Madeline was chatting with Claudia, Edward's mother. When she saw them enter, Madam Wilson smiled cheerfully.

"Here you are," she pointed to the seat near her, "come here, Irene, sit here, sit next to me."

Irene picked up the desserts and sat down. "Grandmother, Edward and I bought your favorite desserts . Grandma, do you want to try some now?"

Edward sat opposite them.

Madeline took Irene's hand and said kindly, "I know Irene cares me the most. Unlike Edward, who only annoys me all day long."

"Grandmother! How dare I!" said Edward. His voice was different from usual, and he looked more like a child.

Madeline looked at Claudia and smiled, "See, he just answered back."

In Irene's eyes Claudia was a lady from a respectable family. She rarely spoke. She had been abroad for years, she had a natural gentle temperament and was good-humoured.

"Edward, your grandmother is right. She loved you too much. You are not as considerate as Irene."

"I have to warn you, Irene is a treasure of me. If you don't treat her well, your mother and I will not spare you. If she is not happy, I will be the first to spare you."

Edward understood how much his mother and grandma love Irene. Not to mention them, if he made Irene unhappy, he would not forgive himself.

Edward glanced at his wife, who was smirking and eating grapes and looking at him as if she was watching a good show. He clenched his fist slightly and coughed at her. He replied, "Okay, Grandma, everything you say is right. I'll listen to you."

Seeing Irene eating grapes, Madeline looked at Claudia and smiled. "Irene love eating sour grapes!"

Edward thought that Irene did like eating sour things. She had already eaten tens of the dried plum in the morning. If he hadn't stopped her and said that she couldn have eaten all of them.

Madeline's eyes narrowed into slits when she heard that. "As the saying goes, If a woman like to eat sour, she would have a boy, if spicy, she might be pregnant with a gril." Madeline paused as if she had thought of something. "Claudia, you like to eat sour food when you were pregnant with Edward. Do you remember that you had even eaten the grapes that wasn't ripe in my garden?"

"Mom, you are right!" Claudia answered.

Madeline was even happier. "''Actually, it does not matter whether the baby is a man or a woman. As long as it is born, it will be the favourite of my family."

Then Madeline said to the maid, "Pick some fresh grapes for Irene before they leave."

The servant received the order and left for the graden.

Hearing this,Irene felt a little embarrassed. She couldn't help but eat sour food.
