The Villain's Wife

132

The media instantly spread the news about the Kim Family's demise. It was highlighted that Hongjoong was actually murdered by his own father. While these were all rumors as the media didn't really have concrete evidence, many people still believed it.

Moreover, Nancy and Kai were also invited by the authorities, sending tens of reporters waiting outside of the police station, hoping that they will get some news about their matter. Before noon came, news that Nancy had been accused of murder already graced the social media.

Of course, Jennie's name was not part of this news. She and Lisa were only enjoying the show, waiting for Won-Young to contact whoever it was that backing him. While they were almost a hundred percent sure that it was Old Man Zhou, they still wanted to make sure before they could make their own plans.

Not long after the news of Nancy and Kai being arrested came to light, Won-Young did call someone. However, since he was using a disposable phone, Jennie and Lisa could not track the call.

Won-Young was careful, he is wise enough not to use his mobile phone to call the person. But, he had forgotten that Jennie and Lisa could actually have their people follow him all the time.

"He was meeting with the Lees?" Lisa frowned when he heard Sehun words. Both of them fell into silence as they thought about Won-Young's actions. Isaac Lee? Was he the one responsible for this? What about Old Man Zhuo?

"I think someone wanted him to contact your grandfather. This tactic is very familiar at all." Sehun stroked his chin, his legs crossed as he held a cup of coffee on his other hand. "Ah... I think someone wanted to frame your grandfather so you can go after him!"

"Hmmm... that is another possibility." Lisa said before he fell into another silence. Something is wrong. He was sure that they missed something.

.....

While both Lisa and Sehun were thinking about this matter, Jennie received an unexpected visitor in her office.

"I am not supposed to be here." Jintao said as he uncomfortably turned his gaze at Jennie. "This should be something that you must keep as a secret. I..." he suddenly rose from his seat and paced in front of Jennie's table.

"Mr. Zhou... I can't say that I am not surprised." Jennie said as she leaned against her chair. She eyed Irene and the latter instantly left the room to get some refreshments. "When you called me earlier for a meeting... I asked my secretary to make all the people on this floor leave so you can come up without them seeing you. My security is also taking care of the cameras. I believe you are secure here."

Her statement made the old man looked at her again. "Why?" He asked, confused. "Why do that? Aren't you even afraid that I will hurt you? Aren't you even thinking that maybe my father asked me to kill you?"

His words earn a scoff from Jennie. "I have thought of that. But... my curiosity as to why you are here without the knowledge son..."

"How did you know that he doesn't..." Jintao did not continue his words as he widened his eyes at Jennie. "You have people watching my family?" Panic and fear instantly swirled in his eyes as he approached her.

"If my people won't hear from me every two minutes... your family will die. Simple." Jennie lied. Of course, she doesn't have that capability. She is not a mercenary leader or a mafia queen. Moreover, she didn't asked for Lisa's help in this matter. She only said it to intimidate the man. "Are you thinking that I would allow you near me without some... safety measures?"

Jintao opened his mouth to say something, but he came up with nothing to say to her. Jennie was smart but she didn't think she would be this cunning. "I-I am here because I need your help." He said after he gathered all the courage that he had. "I need your help against the Zhuo Family."
