When they realized that their husbands were giving a bad attitude, Hania and Jovannie pinched the men's arms.
With that, David and Luke finally squeezed out a smile. However, it was better if they didn't because it seemed like they were hiding daggers in the smiles.
Gia knew that her father and brothers wouldn't treat Neil well. After all, they had been taking care of her and always worried about her.
Still, Neil greeted them respectfully.
After Gia introduced Jovannie, she picked Lovette up.
With a warm smile, Gia said, "This is my lovely niece, Lovette! She's adorable and such a good girl!"
Lovette smiled brightly. "Nice to meet you, mister."
Looking at the child whose eyes were similar to Gia's, Neil showed a friendly gaze, "Nice to meet you too, Lovette."
In fact, he had heard a lot about Lovette from Gia since the latter often talked about the child. She even set Lovette's picture as her phone wallpaper.
Just then, Luke told Gia, "It's been a while since you see Jovannie, sister. Why don't you talk to her? I've prepared some snacks and candies in your room. Take Lovette with you too."
As soon as she heard this, Gia understood that Luke intended to send her away so that the family could have a "nice talk" with Neil.
She had expected such a thing.
She knew her father and brothers too well.
She also knew that they wouldn't accept Neil if he couldn't pass their test.
However, she also knew that they wouldn't treat Neil harshly for fear that she would be sad unless he hurt her on purpose.
Before she returned home, she had discussed this matter with Neil. He only replied, "I understand. If I have a cute and beautiful daughter or sister like you, I'll be very worried too. Don't worry, I'll definitely make them believe in my feelings for you."
Gia shot an encouraging look to Neil, and the latter gave her a reassuring smile.
Knowing Luke's affection for his sister, Jovannie was worried that he would embarrass Neil and give her husband a warning glare.
Luke coughed softly. He was as fierce as a tiger a second ago, but now he turned into a gentle kitten.
As for David, Hania took him out for a walk.
Once the brothers ended their conversation with Neil, he would talk to the man alone. In the room.
Even though Jovannie was already married and had a daughter, Gia still treated her as her darling sister.
She pinched Jovannie's cheeks and said, "I see that Luke treats you and Lovette well as always. Oh, I'm so jealous! My brother has such lovely treasures by his side!"
Though Jovannie was used to Gia's tease, she still blushed. "You're exaggerating!"
On another note, she was also interested in Gia's love life. "Oh right, congratulations on finding your soulmate!"
When she saw the couple's gazes, Jovannie knew that they loved each other very much.
This was the first time she saw Gia blush.
Gia smiled and said, "You know, Jovannie. I finally understand my parents' love."
