The eting with CEO Jin Liwei and his wife didn’t last for too long because of Madam Jin’s health. It was understandable that CEO Jin didn’t want to tire his wife out too much.
Jasper was pleasantly surprised that Madam Jin wasn’t so scary after all. She was actually a very kind lady. He no longer felt that Miss Kitty was exaggerating whenever she was singing praises of her own mother. It felt like he was eting an angel and a goddess all at the sa ti. Madam Jin was also many tis more beautiful in person than on screen.
Frankly, the couple was breathtaking. Now he couldn’t wait to et Miss Kitty Jin in person as well. He was sure that she would be a beautiful child because her parents were both gorgeous. However, he didn’t dare ask CEO Jin and Madam Jin to et their precious daughter especially after rembering Assistant Xu’s repeated reminder not to ask too many questions.
’I’ll work hard to earn their trust. Then they’ll surely allow to et Miss Kitty in person.’
After thanking the couple for the opportunity to stay in their ho and learn from CEO Jin Liwei as a paid intern starting tomorrow, the butler finally led Jasper to his assigned bedroom. Assistant Xu remained to speak with CEO Jin.
The trip from Singapore to here didn’t take that long but Jasper still felt a little tired. He ended up taking a short nap before waking up before dinner. His two bodyguards acted as his guide in the mansion since they were originally CEO Jin’s security subordinates. They led him back to the master suite because CEO Jin and Madam Jin apparently wanted him to join them for dinner. He was touched especially because Madam Jin was still in bed rest. This showed that the madam truly welcod him to their ho.
When he arrived, he discovered that there were other new arrivals like him. There was a flamboyant man leading the conversation and making everyone laugh.
"You’re here," Madam Jin, Iris, smiled and beckoned him to join the group. "Everyone, et Jasper Leung. He’s an intern Liwei personally invited all the way from Singapore."
The flamboyant man greeted him in English. "Ah, so you’re Jaspy! I heard so much about you! Welco! I’m Dominic Chua, Boss Iris’ super-duper to the highest level handso and beautiful assistant and best friend! You can call Dom. Nice to et you, Jaspy! Hehehe."
A middle-aged lady smacked Dom on the shoulder and scolded him. "Introduce yourself properly! You’re already this old but still so unruly, ha."
"Ouch, Momsy!"
"Listen to your momsy," Domingo Chua warned his son.
Dom pouted but behaved after being scolded by both his parents.
Jasper watched all this and felt amused and awkward at the sa ti. The atmosphere was very lively. He recognized the na Dom because he often heard it from his boss, Miss Kitty. She would ntion her Uncle Dom now and then. Of course, he also knew that Dominic Chua was the registered owner of White Tigress International Virtual Assistant Services on paper. This was a good opportunity to et the actual person.
He imdiately noticed that the way this Mr. Dominic Chua spoke was almost identical to how Miss Kitty talked. So he was the reason why Miss Kitty always acted so overdramatic.
Madam Jin, Iris, laughed. Her voice tinkled like crystal bells, making everyone sigh in appreciation at the sound. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]
She said, "Jasper, this is my best friend Dom and his parents, Uncle Domingo and Auntie Reina Chua. They’re like family to us so my husband and I invited their whole family all the way from the Philippines to spend Christmas and New Year with us here. They’re also the ones who influenced us to celebrate these special holiday occasions. Uncle and Auntie ca here first but their other family mbers will be arriving later a few days before Christmas day."
Jasper greeted them. The Chuas were a cheerful bunch especially the mother and son so Jasper soon found himself chatting with them as if he had known them for a long ti. The father, Domingo Chua, wasn’t as chatty as his wife and son but he didn’t shy away from talking to Jin Liwei in a familiar manner. Jasper was very impressed that these people treated CEO Jin as if he was a normal person and not a formidable billionaire.
Dinner was soon served in the bedroom.
Iris told Jasper that even though eating dinner in the bedroom with this number of people was not ideal, she still preferred having company instead of being bored eating by herself. She wouldn’t allow her husband, CEO Jin Liwei, to leave their guests to eat by themselves in their first night of stay in their ho either because he would want to accompany her all the ti.
After finishing the delicious main al, it was now ti for dessert. Reina Chua kept on piling the cakes, white chocolate brownies, and other sweet pastries on Iris’ plate.
"Auntie Reina, the doctor says it’s not good for Xiulan to eat too much sweets," Jin Liwei said.
Reina waved a dismissive hand. "Doctors are always like that. Don’t eat this, don’t eat that. Even if it’s just once or twice a week, let a pregnant woman eat whatever she wants! Don’t deprive your wife, Liwei. Poor girl."
Jin Liwei looked like he wanted to say sothing but decided to close his mouth. He released a helpless sigh but there was a clear doting look in his eyes as he watched his wife enjoying dessert. Jasper observed all this.
Reina gave advice to Iris. "Xiulan, don’t look at ugly people, animals, or things because your baby will co out ugly! So only look at sothing beautiful so your baby will be as gorgeous just like you and Liwei."
"Momsy, don’t teach Boss that kind of illogical superstitions," Dom complained.
"Stay out of this! I was pregnant and gave birth to all four of you siblings so I know what I’m talking about."
Dom rolled his eyes but stopped when his father glared at him.
Then Reina told Iris, "By the way, I dread of you eating two bananas while stroking your belly last night. Such a weird dream, ha. I think you’re going to have twins!"
Both Iris and Jin Liwei looked shocked.
