Avoiding The Male Lead-2

“Xin Lisa…What did she do to deserve that?! If not for her and her mother, my mother wouldn’t have thought of committing suicide by overdosing on
sleeping pills! Jeon Jungkook, I should’ve been able to enjoy the love of my parents and have a happy family, but she ruined all of that.”

Jungkooksneered contemptuously.

“What’s so funny, Jeon Jungkook?!”

“You’re only making selfish excuses for your own misdeeds. You couldn’t find a way to vent your pitiful life so you pushed all your anger towards her because you thought she was an easy target. You say she took away everything from you, but shouldn’t everything you mentioned have been hers in the first place?” Jungkook reminded her, “You and your mother are the ones who destroyed a happy family. I think hell would be a much more suitable place for someone like you.”

After saying that, he stood up.
After having her wound pried open, she howled, “No! No! My mother and my father are the ones who were truly in love! Xin Lisa’s mother is the one who broke them apart!”

Jungkook didn’t feel like discussing this ridiculous issue with her. Whether what she said was true or false, she herself knew.

When Ji Eun saw him turning around to leave, she quickly yelled, “Jeon Jungkook! Xin Lisawon’t be alive for long! As long as your children are alive, she’ll never be able to live long. Jungkook, if you kill your child, then Xin Lisa will be able to survive!” With a snort, Chen Sinan left without even turning back to look at her. Who on earth would believe nonsense like that?

Only, after he returned home, he could clearly sense that Xin Lisa was getting more and more uneasy.

Occasionally, whenever she took any naps or slept, she would be woken up halfway from a nightmare. After waking up, she would gasp heavily in a daze.

Jungkook would find her with the same sweaty and tense appearance every time. Grabbing a tissue, he helped wipe the sweat off her face and spoke in a gentle voice,

“Nightmares again?”

Xin Lisa nodded. “I dreamt about the past.”

She seems to be reliving all those experiences in the past in her dreams all over again. All the disappointment and heartbreak was so real that she could hardly differentiate them from reality.

“Jungkook…”

“Don’t worry, it’s just a dream.”

“If I’m not by your side anymore one day, then you and our child…”

“Don’t talk nonsense!”
Xin Lisa put on a smile and changed the topic. “We haven’t named the baby yet! For a boy and a girl, we’ll give both of them names. What do you think?”

But in fact, the elders have already long begun thinking up names for them early on, but they couldn’t find anything that satisfied them.

Jungkook held her softly and nodded. “Alright. We’ll give a name for both the boy and the girl. If the first one is a boy, we’ll keep the other name for next time.”

“Yeah. That’ll be nice.”

“You should name the baby.”

“Alright.” After agreeing, Xin Lisa slowly closed her eyes again and nestled into his arms. Perhaps those dreams were telling her that it’s time to go back… But in the end, Jungkook still managed to comfort her. Since the heavy rain went on for two entire weeks, the news reported that floods raged through many places and houses were collapsing because of it. It was a huge disaster. Every time she saw the news, Xin Lisa would feel more and more uneasy.

The moment she first felt her labor pains was during an afternoon of heavy rain. Around 3 o’clock that day, she laid down and rested for less than a few minutes before something felt wrong. At first it was only a faint throb of pain, but the throbbing came more frequently and the pain intensified.
