The Villain's Wife

The letter was written by Anna. Based on the strokes, she must have hurriedly wrote it somewhere and put it on Jennie's clothes. Jennie immediately thank the fact that Jack wanted her to have her own privacy and did not install any camera's inside her room.

She read the letter one more time before she put the small piece of paper in her mouth and swallowed it. There is no way that she will create some trouble for Anna. Not after she warned her that the pregnancy was fake. She then closed her eyes and decided to sleep.

Right now, Jennie could not just trust anyone. She is alone. However, Anna's letter gave her little hope. Of course, Jennie also considered the fact that Anna was acting as a double agent to spy on her. However, to Jennie, this does not matter. Jennie knew that she could this woman to come up with a plan.

A flash of hope started gleaming her eyes as she thought of seeing Lisa soon.

"How was it?"

"Your method worked." Sehun stared at the bags below Lisa's eyes.

"When was the last time that you slept?" he asked and clenched his jaws. "If you won't sleep... you will get sick sooner or later. How will you face her once she comes back?"

His question seemed to wake Lisa up from his stupor. But, instead of giving him an answer Lisa only shook his head, as if silently telling him to stop talking anything unrelated to Jennie's location. He held his hands, waiting for Sehun to gave him the tablet.

In response, Sehun, who sitting opposite to Lisa handed him a tablet with the list of places that Jisoo provided.

"Yunnan province?"

"Hmmm... It says it's a castle near the Yunnan- Myanmar border. He flies there every now and then since he started working for his father. But he started to frequent the place this past few weeks."

"Check the ones on Asia first. And keep it quiet." Lisa said. In response, Sehun nodded and bid him goodbye. Not long after Lisa left, his mother arrived.

This time, Lisa did not asked his people to stop her.

"How have you been?" Dae Un asked. Unlike their first meeting, her face was devoid of any expression this time. "Can you still hold on?" she asked.

"What kind of question is that?" Lisa snapped, irritation flashed in his tired eyes. He had not slept for three days now and he already started feeling the brunt of his abuse towards his body. He watched as his mother pursed her lips. Her gaze wavered.

"The Zhou Enterprises are already in turmoil. We already involved the authorities and Zhou Kang is already on the run." She added, ignoring the irritation in his voice. "I am only here to update you."

Lisa's lips thinned as he stared at her. All these things were already in the news. His mother does not need to come here and tell him about this matter. "Why are you here?" he asked.

A sigh escaped his mother's lips. "Do you hate me that much?"

"Hate is a strong word."

"Well... I can't blame you for that." A gleam of sadness flashed in her eyes. "I know that your adoptive mother was the one who told you about me. I don't blame her. She was already sick when you met so..." she lowered her head.

Lisa scoffed. "You can't really blame the woman who raised me, can you?" The reason why Lisa knew all about her real mother's past as well as the Zhou Family was because of his adoptive mother in Japan.

Since she was already sick, most of her words made little sense to Lisa. He thought it was nothing but a joke. Or one of her episodes. Even when she told Lisa the danger of being a Zhou, he did not believe her. However, this all changed with his adoptive father also informed him of the matter.
