The Villain's Wife

126

Dec 05, Monday

Just forty-eight hours after the bombing incident, the police found a suspect who confessed that he was the one who bombed the restaurant. According to him, he used to work as a waiter of the said restaurant and he was fired unjustly. The management also refused to gave him his compensation. Because of this, he decided to ruin the restaurant, killing over ten people and wounding at least fifteen guests who were dining at that time.

The news was enough to satisfy the public's thirst for justice. Thus, the story was spread like a wildfire by the media, solving the mystery of the bomber and giving answers to many public inquiries.

"He confessed?" Jennie asked.

"Hmmm." He nodded. "I don't believe him."

Jennie nodded as well before she fell into contemplation. She looked out of the window and watched the clouds float aimlessly. "We are going to land in Busan soon," she uttered. Jennie was originally scheduled to have a meeting for the renovation of the original Arison Mall, turning it into Harmony Isle just like what they did with the one in Seoul.

At first, Lisa insisted that they stay on Sky City for a few more days, however, Jennie convinced him that missing their appointment could only mean that the incident affected them. Moreover, not many people knew that they were in the restaurant and she wanted to keep it that way.

"Hmmm... I will check our LM Capital Branch in Busan so Daohu will drive you around for a while." Lisa said before he handed Jennie a folder. "This contained the list of the people that were already invited to our wedding in Italy. I already sent the invitation. Take a look and tell me if you want to add some people."

"Alright." Jennie nodded. Their wedding will be on the twenty-third of January, so, it was only normal for them to send their invitation a few weeks before the said date. "The Facci was not a big family, to begin with. All I have left are distant relatives and we are not close as my grandmother had no interactions with them."

"And your grandfather's family?"

"I will contact Cathy and inquire about them." Jennie furrowed her brows as she tried to recall the things that her grandmother used to tell her. She could not remember Lilian talking about her grandfather's family at all. This was probably because they stripped him out of his title when he was younger. "How about you? Did you invite a lot of people from the orphanage?"

"No. Just the cook." He smiled. "We should go see him when we have the time. I also asked him to work for us after our wedding, and he agreed. He is very good at making tonics so it would be good to have him around."

Jennie nodded in response. She remembered that Lisa was not close to the people in the orphanage except that mute cook named, Baozhai.

"Also..." Lisa made a deliberate paused as he stared at Jennie. "I decided to meet with Isaac Lee. I am about to schedule a meeting with him."

"About to?" she lifted an eyebrow.

"Well... I was waiting for your approval. If you don't like me to meet him, then... I won't." His words instantly made Jennie laugh. She shook her head, amusement apparent in her eyes.

"It's not a problem. Just take me along with you."

"Of course." He smiled before he looked out of the window. The plane already started descending, so the couple stopped talking and waited for the plane to land.

After a few minutes, Lisa and Jennie left the airport in one car with Irene, Seulgi, and Daohu as the driver.

"Tonight, there is a gala for the benefit of some orphanages in Busan. Yu Yan sent an invitation for me and Sehun." Lisa said, his jaws clenched. "We should go."
