The Man Who Waited vs. The Man Who Wasted novel Chapter 442

He just didn't have his mind on the soup right now.

Getting full always made her sleepy.

Before long, Jocelyn was dozing off in her chair.

Seeing this, Penelope tapped Julian and gestured for him to look over.

Just as Jocelyn's head was about to droop completely to the side, Julian hurried over and steadily caught it with his hand.

He sat down beside her, gently resting her head against his shoulder.

With a solid support, Jocelyn fell into a deep sleep.

The image of the handsome man and stunning woman leaning on each other was incredibly heartwarming.

Someone sitting across from them couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

"These must be your son and daughter-in-law. They're both so gorgeous, such a perfect match."

Penelope was about to say she wasn't that lucky.

But instead, she smoothly replied, "They're not my son and daughter-in-law, they're my daughter and son-in-law."

The stranger's admiration only grew.

"Your daughter is absolutely beautiful. No wonder she snagged such a handsome husband."

Penelope beamed with pride.

"Isn't she? My daughter is definitely a stunner. Right, Julian?"

Julian gave a perfectly calm, "Yeah."

Penelope smiled so wide her cheeks hurt.

The stranger seemed completely invested in the conversation.

"With two parents looking like that, their baby is going to be absolutely breathtaking."

Penelope just smiled without saying a word, her gaze sweeping over their profiles.

A match made in heaven. Two halves of a whole.

If only it were true.

What a shame...

In the depths of the man's dark eyes, a brilliant starlight seemed to dance, carrying a trace of tenderness he rarely showed anyone.

A tenderness reserved for one person alone.

Penelope looked away and silently sighed.

A long time passed.

The sleeping woman suddenly murmured in her sleep, shifting her body until her head slipped off his shoulder.

The warm, solid sensation against her cheek woke her up.

Jocelyn opened her eyes and realized she had practically melted into Julian's side.

Her sleep-addled brain quickly caught up, and she hurriedly pulled away.

"Did I fall asleep?"
