The Villain's Wife

131

Manipulation had always been Jennie's strongest point. If someone would ask her to choose between a gun and a file full of personal and relevant information, she would undoubtedly choose the file. Of course, this was partly because her aim was bad and she was sure that the recoil from the gun would bruise her arms, still this was not the point. The point is, Jennie can use the file to manipulate someone, psychological warfare. Something that she can use even when her eyes were closed.

Jennie only smiled at everyone's reaction. She wanted to watch Won-Young suffer inwardly until he contacts his backer. Jennie was sure that the man would ask for some help, some assistance from the person who planned this all. She was certain that Won-Young's brain would not be capable of having such a plan.

"Lies! That is a lie!" Won-Young said, his eyes wide full of rage as he glared at Jennie.

"Alright... I will leave. Remember what I said about the house. And Oh... Mr. Kim? As someone who is under me, someone whom I trust is going to train you soon. This would be better for the company." She gave them a dashing smile full of victory before turning around. She walked out of the mansion just as the police arrived.

Jennie was serious about Nancy. She had actually provided some evidence that would point the authorities to Nancy and Kai as the prime suspect for Biyu's disappearance. The evidence might be enough to make them go to prison, but Jennie knew that Kai could still do something to turn the situation around. Of course, it would still depend on his capability and resourcefulness.

While Jennie was not planning to let this go, she would also enjoy a good chase. But this does not mean that she would still give them the chance to retaliate. "Lawyer Yang... if Nancy and Kai go to prison... the child. Who will have the custody?" she asked after a few minutes of silence. They are already on their way back to Sky City.

"The patriarch of the Kim Family is still around..."

"He is a criminal. Someone with questionable behavior." Jennie interrupted. While she wanted Nancy and Kai to suffer, she would not want to involve their child. Jennie smiled at her own thoughts. She shook her head as she thought of her own hypocrisy.

How could she not involve their child? The only person who will take the brunt of what she was doing is the younger generation. Nancy and Kai's child was destined to be affected by the moment that he was born. Jennie bit her lips as an idea came into her mind. "I want the child." She uttered, making the lawyer looked at her.

"That- That would be hard considering that there are still..."

"I want the child.... Do everything that you can to fight for custody. All of the child's living close relatives are criminals or unstable." She interrupted the lawyer, her face serious. She had always wanted to have a child herself. While she plans to get pregnant after their wedding, Jennie would also like to adopt a child. In fact, she had been thinking about this for a long time now.

"Pardon my words, Miss Jennie but... the child... What if the child will know that you were the one who caused the demise of his parents?" Lawyer Yang swallowed his saliva as he chastised himself for speaking his mind. However, this was the question that everyone would want to ask Jennie once she adopted the child. He stared at Jennie, observing the changes in her reaction.

"I will tell him the truth about his parents," Jennie said. "It wasn't my fault that they killed someone. I can only hope that he will understand." She made a deliberate pause as she pursed her lips. "I know what you are thinking Lawyer Yang and I thank you for the concern. The cycle of revenge is difficult to stop. However... we should also think that a child's characteristics are molded from the people who raised him or her first before the social environment will affect the child. If he grows up in an environment of criminals, he would become one of them, "she let out a sigh. "You get my point."
