After Rebirth, I Replaced My Ex-Husband's True Love-Chapter 67: The Eccentric Ivan Underwood

"Mom, drink it, drink it, Henry has already had some." I tried to divert my mind from those colorful images to avoid blushing.

My mother-in-law was very skeptical, "Really?"

So I simply recounted the whole process of getting, changing, and taking the medicine, all truthful, to reassure her.

I didn’t tell her about the later stormy encounter between Henry and me.

"That’s good, keep taking it for a while, and you’ll surely have a big healthy boy." My mother-in-law smiled, then suddenly added, "A big healthy girl would be even better!"

Sometimes I really find my mother-in-law adorable and considerate, always afraid of hurting my feelings.

It’s like I’ve seen a ghost; after coming back to life, I find Azure truly beautiful and pure, my mother-in-law really sweet and kind, even Ivan, that cold piece of wood, shows a warm side, and Henry, he has also changed a lot.

Will things get out of control if this continues?

"Zoe, don’t feel pressured, let things with the child happen naturally. Sometimes your father and I crave for a grandson or granddaughter, we just like to mention it, don’t mind us," my mother-in-law said, seeing me lost in thought, thinking I was troubled by the pressure to have a child.

I shook my head repeatedly, "Mom, I don’t mind, of course, I also hope to have a child soon."

That’s false. I definitely can’t have a child with Henry, otherwise, I might have to continue this hopeless marriage, and a child with a father who has another woman in his heart wouldn’t be happy.

After I divorce Henry, Azure will fulfill my in-laws’ wish for me, no rush.

After chatting with my mother-in-law for a while, we went downstairs. Henry had already returned to the living room and was playing with his little nephew.

He lifted the little toddler, who was over two years old, onto his shoulders, holding the little one’s hands in a flying position, running back and forth playfully, the toddler’s laughter was extremely adorable.

I was a little dazed, imagining a future where Henry had kids; he still seemed to really like children and should be a good father in the future.

It’s just that he won’t be the father of my child.

"Let’s go, let’s go, shopping for clothes!" My mother-in-law pulled me and a few aunts to go shopping together.

As for the little nephew, he was left to a few of the men at home.

I volunteered to drive, my mother-in-law sat in the passenger seat while the aunts sat in the back. With one seat short, one aunt drove her own car following us.

Five women set off together, chatting all the way. Suddenly, my mother-in-law seemed to discover something, bent down, and retrieved an item from under the seat.

I glanced at it from the corner of my eye, it was an earring.

A round metal hoop with a transparent teardrop-shaped pendant, very delicate but also quite cheap.

My mother-in-law looked at the earring, then at my ears. Today I’m wearing Fleurette diamond studs, about 130,000, their texture is completely different from that earring.

She didn’t say anything, just put the earring into her bag.

This is Henry’s car, she understood what it meant.

My mother-in-law doesn’t particularly like foreign luxury brands but loves domestic high-end brands. Some with traditional Chinese styles perfectly suit her tastes. Besides, the aunts are around the same age and have preferences for traditional mature styles, so I accompanied them to some domestic brand stores.

I sat on the sofa, drinking coffee, admiring the models one after another in front of me. They were naturally younger than my mother-in-law but had similar figures and very oriental beauty, wearing the dignified and classy clothes for my mother-in-law and the aunts to choose from.

"That one, bring that one over!" Suddenly, my mother-in-law took a liking to a pure white coat, with a collar of equally pure white fox fur, looking very comfortable, with crystal round buttons and an elastic waist, appearing elegant yet slightly luxurious.

I thought my mother-in-law wanted to buy it for herself, but after receiving it, she asked me to try it on right there, "You’ll look great in it!"

I didn’t refuse, took off my coat on the spot, and put on the one my mother-in-law liked. The soft, smooth white fox fur made my face look even more fair and small, the fitted waist highlighted my figure, and I was amazed by the delicate little white flower in the mirror.

"Wearing it, looks beautiful." My mother-in-law looked me up and down, smiling brightly.

"Thank you, Mom." I smiled sweetly.

Then my mother-in-law and they continued shopping at other stores. While waiting for them, I took a pure selfie and posted it on my moments: Did the coat my mother-in-law bought me look good? I really like it.

I definitely like it, just wondering if Azure would like it after seeing it.

Unexpectedly, the first comment was from Ivan Underwood: Not bad, where’s my Bonnie?

I replied: Don’t worry, at home, being taken care of well by the nanny.

Ivan: That’s good, don’t overfeed, she’s a bit of a glutton.

I sent an okay hand gesture back.

Ivan: Where’s Henry?

Seeing the increasingly lengthy comments, I silently opened Ivan’s chat box: Do you have to chat with me in the comments section?

If that madman Henry sees it, he’ll surely find trouble with me.

Then I’ll be accused of seducing his good brother!

Ivan: What’s the difference?

I laughed in anger: Is there a difference between bathing at home and bathing on the street?

Ivan didn’t reply again, and when I checked my moments, well, his comment had been deleted.

"Zoe, let’s go back, I’m tired from shopping." My mother-in-law, finally satisfied with her purchases, said to me contentedly.

"Okay." I put away my phone, took the various bags from my mother-in-law’s hands, and followed behind them as we left.

When we got home, it was already late.

I haven’t gone shopping like this in ages; with Crystal Dawson and them, we usually head straight to eat, drink, and have fun, barely bothering to walk a few steps.

So, my legs were very sore, after taking a bath, I prepared to sleep.

Just as I was groggily falling asleep, I heard Henry talking on the phone, his voice low and gentle, "It’s okay, I’ll take care of it."

Then there was the sound of a door opening.

I suddenly became wide awake, got up, and ran to the balcony to look down, Henry’s car headlights turned on, disappearing into the snowy night.

My in-laws probably didn’t know Henry left in the middle of the night, as there was no commotion, while my phone rang, it was a message from Henry: I have to go back for something, you stay here for a few more days, I’ll come to pick you up.

Based on his tone during the call, I think it must be something related to Azure.

Looking at the text, the feeling in my heart was indescribable.

Saying he’s as indifferent and heartless to me as in the previous life, he sent me a message. Saying he’s starting to have some feelings for me, yet in the middle of the night, he’s so concerned about another woman.

While I was mired in these complex thoughts, Joel Sutton sent me a message: That coat looks great.

And my mood suddenly lifted quite a bit, I replied: Haha, thanks for the compliment!

Joel Sutton: It’s not a compliment, it really looks great, Miss Hathaway, haven’t you realized how beautiful you are?
