A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 873 Guard Against The Sister In Law

"I know. If Alfred and we are just ordinary friends and we don't know each other, of course we have no right to ask about his privacy. If he really has a crush on Irene, we have to ask him. We can't let Irene find the wrong boyfriend." Essie pouted.

Zac put his arm around her shoulder and said, "Honey, Irene is not a child. She will judge by herself."

"I know. But now her marriage is a sore in Mommy's heart. Of course we have to help her solve the problem," said Essie with a smile.

Since Charlotte mentioned that Irene liked Zac last time, she had been on guard.

There was a saying that 'One shouldn't have the heart to harm others, but must be vigilant so as not to be harmed'.

Her husband was so excellent, rich and handsome. Naturally, there would be many women admired.

Although he had a hidden disease and they couldn't get close to him, as his wife, she had the obligation to help him wipe out the mistress and not let them bother him.

So she had to be on guard against it.

Irene did have some amorous words and behaviors towards Zac. So obvious that even the little girl, Mili sensed it.

How could she turn a blind eye to it?

Most importantly, Irene was the adopted daughter of her mother-in-law, who loved her very much.

She had to deal with the relationship between them.

Even if Irene really admired Zac, she couldn't show it in an intense way. She could only deal with it in a gentle way.

It was the best way to find a suitable boyfriend for her and let her change her target.

However, Alfred's sexual orientation was a mystery, so she'd better be more cautious. Not all fond of playing it with both men and women together.

Irene's gaze shifted to Zac from time to time.

Alfred saw it.

"Miss Irene, a man as excellent as your brother must have a lot of women admiring him cluster around, right?"

"Mr. Alfred, isn't it strange that a man only loves his wife?"

"Isn't it normal for a man to love his own wife?" Alfred shrugged.

"I mean, he only has his wife by his side, no other women," Irene said.

"Miss Irene, do you want your husband to cheat on you?" Alfred gave a weird look.

"I didn't mean that. I mean, a man is powerful and rich. There are countless women who love him. Can he control himself not to touch other women but only love his wife?" Irene pouted.

"It depends on his wife's charm and ability to attract him." Alfred shrugged.

"Although his wife is a good woman, other women are not bad either. Some of them are really beautiful." Irene frowned. After all, she was a hybrid. She was confident in her appearance.

"In fact, a wife should possess not only appearance, but also temperament, quality and a lot of things." Alfred smiled, "But I think Miss Irene is qualified with all of those. You are beautiful, noble and elegant."

Irene raised her eyebrows complacently. Of course she knew her advantages, but it seemed that Zac couldn't see them, or it could be said that her advantages couldn't attract him at all.

"Mr. Alfred, if I take the initiative to pursue a man, will he refuse?"

"No, who will refuse a beautiful and charming lady like you?" Alfred shook his head.

"What if he is a married man?" Irene asked.

"Are you in love with a married man?" Alfred raised his eyebrows.

"Of course not. I'm just making an assumption," Irene spread out her hands and said in an indifferent tone.

"That's good. It's better not to touch a married man. A beautiful woman like you should find someone who really loves you, instead of being the mistress of a married man," Alfred tried to comfort her.

"Mr. Alfred, you think too much," Irene said with a smile. As long as Zac nodded, she would be willing to let her be the invisible rat for the rest of her life. But Zac didn't want her. Even if she wanted to give herself to him.

"Miss Irene, I have a request. I wonder if you can accept," Alfred said slowly.

"Mr. Alfred, we are friends now. You can just say it," Irene said.

"I want to invite you to dinner tomorrow," said Alfred.

Irene hesitated for a while and agreed after thinking that she had nothing special to do.

Alfred was very happy. "I'll pick you up at six o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

At this moment, when Eva was about to go to the Fruit-Timber Barbecue Restaurant with Jim for barbecue, Janice happened to come and came with them.

In fact, Janice didn't like barbecue very much. She only ate healthy food, and barbecue was not good for health. But Jim didn't change his mind because of her worries, so she had to follow him.

"You know what? The best partner for barbecue is pear juice, which can help detoxify. You can eat barbecue and pear juice at the same time, so that the disadvantageous food will be removed smoothly, " Eva said with a smile.

"The theory of a foodie must be reasonable." A charming smile appeared on Jim's face.

Janice still didn't want to have a try. She came here just for accompanying. It took her a lot of efforts to recover. She would never do anything harmful to her health.

"Janice, have some grilled oysters. They are grilled through the shell. It doesn't matter," Eva suggested.

"No, thanks. I came here after dinner, and I never have barbecue." Janice waved her hand.

"You don't have to come with us. Just wait for me at home," Jim said casually.

"I want to be with you." Janice smiled. In fact, she wanted to look at him, lest they flirt with each other behind her back.

Eva felt a little uneasy.

Before Jim confessed, she could be a third wheel at ease. But now that Jim had confessed, her role was quite embarrassing. She was like a home wrecker, standing between them.

She didn't want to be a home wrecker. She hated the home wrecker the most. She didn't want to find another man not long after her husband left.

But Jim had made an appointment of four years with her. She had no choice but to agree. Because he was the Nine Heavens Mysterious God, his imperial edict could not be violated by mortals.

Eva and Jim were quite compatible at the dinner table. Although Eva could eat almost everything, she still had her favorite food, and food that she like not that much.

Jim also loved her favorite food.

Eva picked up the menu and began to order, Honey Chicken Wings, Grilled Oysters, Mutton Kebabs, Chicken Kebabs, Crucian in Secret Recipe...

When the waiter brought the barbecue into the private room, Eva began to rub her hands.

"Janice, are you sure you don't want to eat?"

"No." Janice shook her head resolutely. She was not a glutton like Eva who relied on her stomach to control her body. She had never been tempted by delicious food.

Jim handed the chicken wings to Eva and said, "Eat them now. You greedy cat."

"Okay, then I won't wait." Eva took the chicken wings and began to eat, completely ignoring her image.

Janice had always been frightened by her table manner.

At that time, Jim said that he didn't like her in every way. She understood him very well. She couldn't be liked by Jim in any way.

But now Jim said that he fell in love with her. She couldn't believe it, and it was still frightening until now.

When she ate, she didn't care about her image at all. The way she ate was quite vulgar and ugly. It was known that the noble ladies all ate elegantly and modestly. Half full was enough, and they couldn't eat too much.

However, Eva was just like a hungry ghost when she ate. Every time she ate the food cooked by Jim, she would definitely add up all the soup.

She looked at Jim, who was watching Eva eating chicken wings with great affection.

She was quite skilled at biting. She ate up all the flesh with several bites, leaving only clean bones.

Jim handed her another plate of oysters.

After she finished four oysters, she sighed with satisfaction. "Scum Jim, the barbecue here is delicious. I'm sure the place I introduce must be right." NôvelDrama.Org content.

"It's a foodie's introduction. How could it be wrong?" Jim smiled.

Janice took a sip of the pear juice and said in a low voice, "Barbecue is not healthy after all. You'd better eat less in the future."

"It's okay. Just eat a few more pears. People in Korea almost eat barbecue, pickles and other unhealthy food every day, but they are still in good health. Thanks to the pear, they help to detoxify," Eva grinned and said indifferently.

"Eva, Jim will definitely be misled by you if you spend more time together," Janice squinted at her and said half-jokingly.

"Then take him back and teach him well." Eva smiled.

Jim glared at her and pushed the crucian at hand to her. "Help me remove the bones."

Eva was shocked, "If you don't like to spit out bones, I'll ask the boss to roast you a tilapia fish, okay?"

"I'll eat this. You pick the bones for me," Jim said peremptorily. This was a punishment.

Eva wanted to die. The crucian was one of the local fish with the most bones, and they were all small thorns. He asked her removing them for him. She would not be able to finish that until the shop closed.

Janice pulled the plate over and said, "Jim, let me do it. I'm your girlfriend. I should do it. How can you bother Eva?"

Eva immediately lowered her head to eat her fish and pretended not hear anything.

A foodie was a foodie, and a foodie was also good at eating fish.

Janice looked at her with a faint smile, "Eva, I find that you are good at eating fish."

"There is no good way to eat fish. There is only one way. Bite hard. If there is a bone, bite it and it will come out," said Eva.

"Women who can eat a lot are easy to raise. Even stones can be digested into water." Jim sneered.

"I'm easy to take care of." Eva wrinkled her nose at him. She found that even if scum Jim really liked her, he would talk to her with sharp tongue from time to time and would not show mercy to her.
