HAPPY READINGAfter their meal, Lisa took a walk with him in the yard. When they were in Roam, he would often take evening walks with her whenever he had time. Her husband was a busy and diligent man.
There wasn't much of his time that she could have before they retired to bed. So, Lisa was much happier with this leisure time of walking with him than receiving an expensive gift.
"They were all individually beautiful and lovely. Did you choose everything yourself?"
"I did."
Jungkook had just packed them up after one glance but it was correct to say he chose everything himself.
"Do you like it?"
"Yes, thank you."
Lisa was more grateful for his heart of giving rather than any jewelry.
"You seem to know a lot about female jewelry. I guess because you've gifted a lot."
Lisa wanted to take those words after ot left her mouth. She had no intention of criticizing him and thought that her words had crossed the line. She felt he would be displeased and was about to apologize for her slip of the tongue but he spoke first.
"Lalice."
He gave a deep sigh, reached out to hold her wrists and stopped walking.
"Can't you forget the things that happened before we got married?"
Lisa thought he might get angry but he looked unexpectedly vulnerable. She gazed at him blankly.
"Do I keep mentioning things from before our marriage? I'll be careful in the future."
"That is not what I meant. This is from a while ago but, do you remember what you said when you asked to modify our contract?"
[Please do not go making lovers without my knowledge. If you get tired or disgusted of me, and want to leave me for another woman, please tell me first. I do not wish to hear it from another person's mouth.]
"Yes. I remember."
"I won't have a lover without your knowledge not will I leave you because I am tired or disgusted of you so I would like it if you trusted me."
Lisa's heart began to race. She didn't know the intention behind his words. A huge whirlwind began to sweep through her mind. She was the one that made a mistake. She didn't have any reason or right to criticize or mention his past actions before their marriage.
It was possible that he had a personality which was bogged down by rules. Therefore, after the legal contract of marriage was established, he kept to it strictly.
However, that didn't agree with the person that Lisa had been watching all this time. He was a wilful person that had no qualms of changing the existing rules to suit himself.
"...Why?"
Lisa couldn't make heads or tails of what he was thinking and mumbled absentmindedly as she looked at him. She wanted him to say something, anything, so she could draw a conclusion that 'ah, it was a meaningless remark'.
However, his pupils quivered with disappointment. He made a face that said he didn't know what to say. He repeatedly opened his mouth as if to say something then he closed it.
'Why...?'
Lisa felt her fingers going numb so she clenched and unclenched her fists. This man in front of her. He was hurt.
