Confession

27

When Lisa returned home, it was already dark. The smell of dinner was floating from the brightly lit villa. Mrs. Miso was in the kitchen, cleaning up.

"Madam, you're back." Mrs. Miso saw her enter and greeted Lisa with a smile.

"Nn." Lisa looked around. "Jungkook isn't back yet?"

"He'll be home soon." Mrs. Miso replied. "He called in a half-hour ago and asked if the Madam had come back. I said that you were on your way, and Sir said that he would be coming back too."

"Oh." Lisa nodded.

"Was the Madam busy today?" Mrs. Miso suddenly asked.

"I went to the orphanage and played with some children." Lisa replied.

"Ah, it seems that the Sir didn't want to disturb Madam." Mrs. Miso commented.

"Why do you say that?" Lisa didn't understand.

"If Sir hadn't been afraid of disturbing Madam, then why didn't he just call you directly to ask when you'd be home? He didn't need to ask me." Mrs. Miso replied. In her heart, she secretly commended herself for saying such a reasonable sentence that didn't sound too deliberate. Sigh, Sir really is outwardly cold but deep and passionate inside.

Lisa's expression turned strange. She didn't ponder whether or not Mrs. Miso's words were deliberate. Instead, she felt guilty for some reason. She and Jungkook were a couple who acted like they were secretly in love with each other but hadn't dared to take that final step. Lisa hadn't thought much of it, but it seems that their situation was obvious to the people around them.

"Madam, I've already fed Chu Wu, so if you don't have anything else for me to do, I'll be leaving." Mrs. Miso went on to say.

"Ah, of course." Lisa awkwardly responded.

After Mrs. Miso left, Lisa took off her black coat and threw it on the sofa. She untied her ponytail and shook her head to loosen her hair.

This was the scene Jungkook first saw when he entered his home. A brightly lit house filled with delicious food, and a beautiful woman letting her hair down.

"Welcome back." Because Mrs. Miso had told her that Jungkook would be home soon, Lisa wasn't surprised to see Jungkook standing by the door.

"Yes." Jungkook rubbed Chu Wu on his head for a while, then asked. "You just came back?"

Lisa suddenly felt that this man in front of her really was the epitome of 'outwardly cold but deep and passionate inside.' He obviously knew she would be home because of Mrs. Miso, yet he still asks her. It really makes a person want to expose him, ah. "Didn't you know already?"

"Uh, what?" Jungkook couldn't properly respond for a while.

"Didn't you ask Mrs. Miso when I'd be back? Just now, Mrs. Miso joked that maybe you didn't have my cell phone number, and that's why you ask her every time about me." Lisa deliberately changed Mrs. Miso's words around. She wasn't afraid of being caught out, because she knew that Jungkook certainly wouldn't talk to Mrs. Miso about this.

"I...." Having been exposed so straightforwardly, Jungkook couldn't help but feel embarrassed. After a few seconds, he suddenly asked. "Then, next time, I won't call Mrs. Miso and just call you directly?"

"Whatever you prefer." Lisa, like a tsundere, turned around and walked into the dining room.

Does this mean that he could call Lisa every day? With this thought,Jungkook happily gave Chu Wu another round of vigorous rubbing. While Chu Wu whined, Jungkook secretly decided to increase Mrs. Miso's salary.
