Beauty and the Beast (Book 2)

CHAPTER 62

LISA POV

Sigh...

One more problem is resolved. I just finished our tender problem. Hmm... Actually, it's not a problem, it's just that this is one of the things I've been doing to destroy Jaejoong. I always make it difficult for him by joining the big tenders he does. Of course, I made a better offer than him. And now I'm getting in the way once again by winning a tender for a housing development project in a strategic area in Daegu. This is a big and important project for him, but once again he has to admit defeat. I will destroy him this way. Who knows how much longer Kim Jae Wok will remove him from his position as head of an important branch of Kim Inc after he repeatedly failed.

I stretched out and leaned back on my swivel chair before looking at the clock. I've been here for 2 hours. This is faster than I thought. But I'm happy if it's fast like this because I can meet Jennie soon. My Love.

I picked up my cellphone that was on the table and smiled when I saw my wallpaper. My beautiful fiancé. It's 6 o'clock, what is she doing?

From: Jennie ~ My Love

Baby, I'll go with Irene. She asked me to accompany her to the mall looking for something but did not know for how long. Let me know when you finished

I smiled reading her message.

To: Jennie ~ My Love

Hi baby, I just finished. Are you still at the mall? Do I need to catch up with you, have dinner there, or wait for you at home?

I'm waiting for her reply, but she still hasn't read it. I put my cellphone on the table and went to the bathroom to finish my business for a while. After that, I came out and took my cellphone to see if Jennie had replied.

Not reply yet

Okay, I'll call her. Maybe she didn't hear any incoming messages.

Hmm... She didn't pick up my call.

Let me call one more time.

*tuutt... tuutt... tuutt...

I tried 3 times but Jennie didn't pick up the phone. Even if she's sleeping, usually she will pick up her phone at least on the 2nd call. Is she too tired?

I'll try calling her again. But this time, the call was immediately diverted to voice mail. Did she turn off the phone? Did the battery run out? No, Jennie was never like this.

Then I'll call Irene.

*tuutt... tuutt... tuutt...

Irene didn't pick up her cellphone either?

I tried calling Irene again but still not answered. My eyebrows began to crease in confusion. Then let me call again.
