Hypnotizing Love(Love Letters) novel Chapter 923

Even when Mrs. Lyon looked at him with exquisite and varied eyes, he was not offended at all.

Before coming, that was, in the morning, he called several married secretaries of the group to his office, just to ask them what he might encounter when meeting in-laws for the first time, and how to deal with them without making mistakes.

The secretaries told him that in-laws, would test the suitability of a visiting son-in-law or daughter-in-law with their kid.

And the first step of their test was usually to look at the shape of the man or woman.

If you looked good, you were half way to winning their approval.

As a result, Jared knew he was going to be evaluated by Mr. Lyon and Mrs. Lyon, and was prepared to be evaluated.

So, as Mrs. Lyon surveyed him, he stood there calmly, allowing her to do so.

He was always confident about his appearance, and honestly, no man could beat him.

Of course, that girl-looking Mikel Schafer didn’t count.

Sure enough, Mrs. Lyon looked at him and, although she was visibly disfigured, didn’t say what was wrong with his appearance and what didn’t reach her expectation.

This meant that he had passed the appearance test.

If Mrs. Lyon couldn’t find fault with him, he would have made his first move.

So, Jared smiled and watched as Amber, standing next to Mrs. Lyon, quietly nodded, and praised him.

And Jared’s smile got bigger and bigger, “Mrs. Lyon, are you done? I should be fine with this outfit today, right?”

The implication was that she should be satisfied with him.

He could not be too blunt, so he just said “outfit” instead.

But they all got it.

Mrs. Lyon listened to Jared’s questions without answering. She nodded at him, grabbed Amber, and began to speak lovingly, “Amber, it’s been a while. Why have you lost so much weight? Is someone mean to you? If it is, just tell me, and I will help you out anyway!”

With that, she gave Jared a suggestive glance.

Jared raised his eyebrows.

Okay, stage two of the test had begun.

His secretaries had said that after the appearance issue, in-laws, or parents-in-law, would start asking their son or daughter whether their partner treated them well, even though they had known that they did.

They would say threatening things to test their spouse’s temper and temperament.

If their children’s spouse had a bad temper and high self-esteem, they absolutely couldn’t stand it, they would just walk away, and the parents would feel that they had identified a scum for their children.

But if their children have a good-natured spouse, they would never see it as a problem, only as perfectly normal. After all, wasn’t it right for parents to worry about their children being bullied?

As long as their children’s spouses were good and reliable, they would never be dissatisfied with these words, but would smile calmly without any psychological burden to face everything next.

Jared had that mentality right now.

He gave Little Leaf his heart and soul, so he didn’t worry about that at all.

He had got a bad temper, but to Little Leaf, he was the softest guy in the world!

Over here, listening to the questions Mrs. Lyon was asking herself, Amber knew that Mrs. Lyon was telling Jared on purpose.

He followed Jared to the trunk.

Mr. Lyon was surprised to see the pile in his trunk, “And you brought so many?”

Jared pulled everything out one by one, “Mrs. Lyon did say that, but we couldn’t really do it. It wouldn’t be polite. Besides, today is the first time I come to visit you, so it would be inappropriate not to bring a gift. And Little Leaf agrees with me.”

“Well, you don’t have to bring this much.” Mr. Lyon answered, “You only need to bring one gift. You’re not strangers. You don’t have to do that. All right, just put all these presents back. Just take one.”

With that, he offered to help put it back.

But he was turned down.

“Uncle, since we have taken them, how can we take them back? Wouldn’t that upset Little Leaf? She’ll think you don’t like her anymore, and that’s why you wanted us to bring it back.”

He believed that if Amber was put up as an excuse, Mr. Lyon would have nothing to say.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Mr. Lyon shook his head and explained, “How could we not like her? She’s like our daughter.”

“That’s all right. If you don’t accept what your daughter gave you, it will upset Little Leaf, right?” Jared looked at Mr. Lyon.

Mr. Lyon murmured twice and with a final sigh, “All right, we’ll take it. Thank you.”

Jared smiled and picked up some bags and boxes.

But they were so heavy and his arm was not recovered yet, so he could feel the pain in his left arm as he lifted them.

It made him glance at his left arm and frown.
