One night Two babies by Liz Pinelis novel Chapter 700

Jessie beamed and said, "Mom, don't worry, even if the bracelet Lorenzo gave me is expensive, I can give Lorenzo a gift of the same value."

"Jessie, no, I ......"

"Don’t say no, or I don't want this bracelet." Jessie frowned, as if to take the bracelet off.

Seeing this, Lorenzo was amused, "Fine, fine, I know I'm wrong, Jessie, don't take it off."

"Good." Jessie put her hand down.

Jessie’s mother poured two cups of tea, one of which she handed to Lorenzo, "Lorenzo, it's proper to exchange gifts, don't refuse, even between husband and wife, there's no reason that only one party can give and the other party doesn't give anything."

"That's right." Jessie nodded in agreement.

Lorenzo took the cup of tea and gave her a deep meaningful glance before he returned to Jessie’s mother, "I know, it was my poor consideration."

"It's fine, sit down, we'll have dinner later." Jessie’s mother said cheerfully.

Lorenzo nodded, "OK, I haven't had your hand-made food for years, I still remember that you are very good at it, especially the sweet and sour fish, it's really good."

Being praised by him so much, Jessie’s mother happily covered her lips and smiled, "You are so sweet. Okay, I will make sweet and sour fish for you, Jessie, call your father, tell him to stop playing chess and hurry to buy a fish back from the market."

"Okay." Jessie took out her phone and called her father.

Soon after the phone call, Jessie’s father returned with the fish, and was happy to see Lorenzo.

The two men just sat on the couch and talked, most notably, about what had happened in the twenty years since the two families had been separated.

Jessie, on the other hand, was dragged to the kitchen by her mother to help with the cooking.

When the meal was ready, several people sat down at the table.

Jessie’s mother very enthusiastic to Lorenzo and helped him with food. Lorenzo’s bowl of dishes was piled very high. Lorenzo repeatedly said he could not eat that much, but Jessie’s mother continued.

Jessie was jealous and knocked on the bowl, "Mom, don't give him more food, Lorenzo can't finish it. Look at me and dad, you usually aren’t so enthusiastic to help us with food."

"Exactly." Jessie’s father nodded in agreement.

Jessie’s mother gave them a blank look, "Lorenzo is a guest, I'm afraid that Lorenzo is too polite, that's why I give Lorenzo the food. If I don't give you food, you would help yourself. You two, can you eat without me?"

After, Jessie’s mother still helped them with food.

Jessie’s father was happy and patted Jessie’s mother on the back.

Lorenzo saw this with envy and said, "Your relationship is still so good, unlike my parents ...... Forget it, it's all in the past, let’s eat."

"Yes, yes." After the chat, Jessie’s father already knew what was going on between Lorenzo's parents, and didn't want to talk about it, responding to the dinner.

After the meal, Lorenzo got up and was ready to help clean up the dishes, but was refused by Jessie’s mother. All the dishes were given to Jessie’s father to wash.

Jessie’s father had no choice but to resign himself to washing the dishes.

Jessie’s mother said to Jessie in the living room, "Jessie, take Lorenzo out for a walk, take a walk, and talk about what's going on between you young people."

"What? But I've just eaten and don't want to go." Jessie said as she rubbed her stomach.

Jessie’s mother glared at her, "You have to go even if you don't want to, Lorenzo comes here once in a while, you let him sit at home? Hurry up and take Lorenzo out for a walk."
