Chapter 509: ns to See Grandparents.


    "If you dare say that you are not in the moodter, I will not believe you," Lucas said to Jen who had his finger in her mouth. It had started when she asked him to feed her, then she suddenly wanted some of the chicken she had made two days ago, so he went to warm it up for her.


    He had learned from Ethan because when Laura wanted something, it''s best to get it for her when she was craving it, otherwise she might as well not eat at all.


    So Lucas quickly went to warm up the food for her, and even deboned the chicken for her. When he put it in front of her, she insisted that he feed it to her, he wanted to get a fork and knife but the future wife ve was coerced into feeding her by hand.


    It started with her ''identally'' nipping at his fingertips, before it progressed to her ''licking the sauce off his fingers'' to now directly sucking it off.


    "I won''t say I''m not in the moodter," Jen said as she teasingly licked his fingertip with a smile. Lucas closed his eyes to calm down but only ended up remembering what she was wearing underneath her t-shirt.


    "We''re going to meet the wedding nners tomorrow," Lucas said as he brought another piece of chicken to her lips. Jen took a bite and urged him to eat as she chewed.


    "We''re going to have a small wedding right?" Jen asked and Lucas nodded.


    "We''ll have around 50 to 100 people," Lucas said and Jen almost choked on her juice. She was thinking about 30 people though?


    "You have yet to meet the rest of my mom''s family," Lucas said and Jen became baffled.


    "And the rest of her friends, there are certain families that we will have to invite even if they won''t be able toe, but most likely they will if they have sense," Lucas said as he thought about. There might be more than a hundred people, he will call his mother to ask about the guest list.


    "So our wedding won''t have thirty people?" Jen asked and Lucas nodded with augh and leaned forward to peck her lips.


    "Don''t worry about it, the wedding nners will handle it, my mom is probably going to arrive by Monday," Lucas said thoughtfully.


    "Mine too," Jen said. Even though her mother was not the proactive type, she already knew that Hellen would definitely drag her there.


    "We should enjoy ourselves before theye then? We won''t have much time with each other then," Lucas said as he pecked her lips again and went to take out the trolley of empty dishes out of their suite.


    "Don''t forget to take your medication," Lucas said to Jen as he went to the kitchen to do the dishes. Jen went to take her medication and followed him to the kitchen to get herself some water.


    She took out a bottle of water from the fridge and leaned on it as she took her medicine while looking at Lucas. Lucas quickly finished with the dishes since there wasn''t much to begin with and dried his hands as he turned around to look at her.


    "Should we go to bed now?" Lucas asked as he took the empty water bottle from her.


    "Okay," Jen answered as she led the way. A surprised shriek escaped her lips when Lucas suddenly carried her from behind and rushed to their room. He dropped her on the bed and caged her against it making her struggle to turn to her back.


    "The doctor said that we shouldn''t be too vigorous," Jen said while panting after she managed to turn her body to look at him.


    "Don''t worry, I''ll be gentle," Lucas said with a naughty smile.


    "I''m not reassured," Jen said as she brushed her fingertips against his jawline.


    "I promise, I won''t be "vigorous" even if you beg me," Lucas said and softly kissed her lips. Just from this, Jen felt like she was going to regret her reminder. Her hunch was true because throughout her pregnancy, Lucas tried his best not to be vigorous.

    "Hellen let''s just go on Monday," Diane said patiently. She had also received the news that her daughter was going to get married, it''s just that Hellen was too excited and sounded like she wanted the ceremony to happen the next day.


    "I still think the earlier we go the better, we can at least start helping with the ns for the wedding earlier," Hellen said and Diane had to stop herself from sighing.


    "Since the wedding is so sudden, let''s try to contact our acquaintances to see who will be able to make the trip for the wedding till tomorrow, so when we go we have a moreprehensive n," Diane said. She was obviously bullshitting her here, but she was hoping that Hellen was too excited to notice.


    "You have a point, I''ll go visit my parents and inws tomorrow, I should at least tell them personally since Lucas can''t," Hellen said thoughtfully and Diane had to stop her sigh of relief before she realised that she might have to tell her family as well.


    "Mmmh, I''ll have to do that too," Hellen said as she tried to control her voice. After chatting for a bit longer the two ended their calls. Diane weakly stood up and went to pour herself a ss of tequ and leaned against the countertop of the bar.


    She kept sighing as she drank to the point where she lost track of how much she had drank. When Alex and Jake came home, this was the sight they were greeted with. Alex had never seen her mother drink any liquor since her father''s death.


    "Mom," she called her, her voice filled with worry as she slowly walked towards her. Even though Diane looked half drunk, she still managed to lookposed.


    "You''re back," Diane said as she looked at her children. Alex pursed her lips as she looked at her mother''s watery eyes. She already knew this but how can her mom be so beautiful even when she was drunk?


    "Mmmh, did something happen?" Alex asked worriedly and Diane gave a shallow smile as she shook her head.


    "Tomorrow, can both of you make time? I want us to go somewhere," Diane said and Jake who was unsure of what to do finally stepped forward to stand next to his mother.


    "Where?" Alex asked as she stealthily stole the ss from her mother.


    "To your grandparents'' house," Diane said and smiled when both their eyes widened in surprise.


    For as long as she had been alive, Alex had never met her maternal grandparents, much less her other maternal rtives. She was not sure about what happened between her mother and them, but it was a surprise that her mother suddenly mentioned them.


    "Okay," Alex said as she held her mother''s hand. It looked like her mother had thought about this for a long time to the point where she had gotten herself half drunk.


    "Let''s go to bed first," Alex said and even though they were willing to help, Diane seemed to walk fine even on her heels so they just escorted her to her room.


    "Tomorrow, you have to behave," Alex said to Jake and he could only roll his eyes at her. When it came to a war of words with his sisters, he would loose from the starting line, so he stopped trying.
