Dilemma

12.

Lalisa smiled faintly. "I don't feel cold! It was much colder inside there. Everyone would only have a blanket in the winter..."

Jungkook's face darkened as his bright eyes likewise dimmed.

He knew exactly where 'inside there' was referring to!

She had been pampered and cosseted since young, so she must have suffered a great deal upon being locked up.

Now that she was casually talking about it so openly, Jungkook's heart trembled a little!

She had been in there for two years, but it was not like the enormous changes that were ongoing in the outside world could be halted.

He simply could not explain himself to her, even if she did hold a grudge against him!

Seeing that Jungkook was silent, Lisa shifted her gaze and looked at the Hope Bamboo Basket before whispering, "I thought that these plants would've been uprooted and thrown out. I didn't expect you to still be keeping them !"

"They are something you fancy so much. How could I bear to discard them?"

Jungkook's words were full of sincerity, which were the complete opposite of his previously indifferent manner. There was even a hint of passion rising up from between his brows!

"Hearing Young Master Jeon say these words will make me misunderstand and think that you actually cared about me ..."

Lisa remarked in a low voice.

Her manner was apathetic as if she had just heard a joke.

Back in the day, during the time she was pursuing him, being able to hear such words from his mouth would have been so blissful!

Now as time had passed and circumstances changed, Lisa could not help but feel that Jungkook was setting her up and that what awaited her would just be cheese in the mousetrap...

It was obvious that she was still struggling internally!

The face-to-face conversation between the two soon lost its meaning. Thus, Jungkook said nothing more and instead turned around to go downstairs!

The moment the tall and sturdy figure disappeared down the stairway, Lisa covered her mouth. She wanted to cry but forcefully suppressed the surging grievances and hatred rising up from the depths of her heart. Her shoulders trembled and she did her best to hold back her tears, and it was only after quite some time did she manage to calm down.

About ten minutes later, he brought the shrimp soup sent by Ji ah upstairs. The soup looked like it had just been heated up!

Lisa must have possessed certain latent genes in being as she had loved seafood since young.

The aroma of the shrimp soup happily greeted her nostrils, making it horribly tempting. Because of this, Lisa was taken aback. In the prison, she was served nothing but watery, tasteless soup. This inhumane 'starvation' had caused her to become weak toward this kind of delicacies she was oh so very fond of.

Jungkook saw her expression, which was similar to that of a hesitant kitten who wanted to eat and an evil smile crept upon his face.

"Eat up! It'll be time for exercise later..."

Lalisa was initially dying to eat, but upon hearing these words, her face became pale from fear as she lost her appetite!

"I'm not eating!"

Lisa began sulking and immediately turned her face away from Jungkook!

Jungkook slowly put down the bowl. Then, his elegant hands began caressing her short, black hair, eventually stopping at the ends. His husky voice purred, "Why? Still can't accept the fact that you're already Mistress Jeon?"

Lisa trembled as her eyes met with his, only for her to coldly snap, "Jungkook, the 12 years I spent pursuing you were rewarded with 2 years of imprisonment!

Not to mention, even as my life was hanging by a thread in the prison, you ignored the decades of friendship between the Mu and Jeon Family and swallowed up the Mu Family, causing my dad to die in a tragic accident during his escape, and my brother to disappear without a word!

Now you're telling me that you want to have me. How can you even spout such nonsense? I'll tell you now, I've been a fool for more than ten years, but I shan't be one any longer!"

"So?"

Jungkook's dark eyes were filled with murderous intent as he waited for the woman to vent all her dissatisfaction before plainly asking.

"Divorce! I want a divorce!!"

Lisa's tone was firm and unquestionable.

It had been 14 years since their relationship had first begun. As she uttered these words, she could clearly hear a loud breaking sound echo out from the deepest parts of her heart...

The intensity of how she yearned to marry him back then was now channeled into the anger she felt at this moment.

As she faced Brother Jeon whom she had always dreamt of marrying, the intention she expressed at this moment was to have a divorce?

Jungkook sneered as cruel mockery crept up from the corner of his mouth. His warm and moist lips were sexy and full. Having already experienced her sweetness, all he wanted now was to swallow her up completely. Yet, this woman had brought up the topic of divorce!

Dream on!
