The Villain's Wife (Book 2)

226

A few days after Chen Shi's name laced every newspaper in Korea and Singapore, more and more evidence of her abusive and manipulative nature came to light. Seeing this, Jennie let the media and the people pressure the government into giving Chen Shi the punishment she deserved.

"You really came here just for this?" Jennie lifted her eyebrow at Jun Liang before shifting her gaze towards his sons, Ben and Timothy. "You don't have to come in here and thank me."

"Well... my father is safe and justice is about to be served. Isn't that something to be thankful for?" Ben said. After what happened with Chen Shi, Jun Liang decided to announce his existence to the media. He even publicly apologized for doing this to his own son. Aside from this, he also announced his resignation before appointing Timothy as the CEO and Ben as the VP of Liang pharmaceuticals.

"Plus... we agreed to have the collaborative project that we spoke of before." Jun Liang was all smiles. It was as if a big, rusty nail had been pulled out from his chest. "I figured, why not take advantage of this opportunity to thank you and talk about business?"

"Of course." Jennie beamed. She then turned towards her brother sitting silently on the couch inside Jennie's office. "Also... I want to introduce you to my brother, Taehyung." Since Taehyung's office was still under renovations, Jennie told him to occupy her office instead.

The peculiar Taehyung instantly agreed and chose to move his whole set up inside Jennie's sleeping area- the small and dark sleeping area! When Taehyung told her about this, Jennie immediately fought the urge to laugh out loud. Why would he prefer to say in that small room instead of Jennie's spacious office?

When asked, Taehyung only told her that it will make him more comfortable. Suffice to say, Taehyung got what he wanted. This time, though, Jennie forced him out of the room to at least interact with Jun Liang and his sons- to socialize. To Jennie, creating a barrier was dangerous. Isolation was not something good if you want to succeed in the industry.

Of course to a hacker, a secure room where they can stay all day is a dream come true. But her brother was not just a hacker. He was not just someone that would work under her forever. He needed to learn to socialize and mingle with others. Build connections and relationships that will help him in the business industry.

To Jennie, reputation and connection was everything and she wanted Taehyung to see this. Also, Jennie wanted to slowly teach her brother some of the things that she learned from her grandmother.

"Brother?" Jun Liang stared at Taehyung for a few seconds. "Twins?"

"That obvious, huh?" Jennie chuckled. As expected, Taehyung only nodded and gave a slight smile without saying a word. "Taehyung is training under me. So... he will soon start traveling around to visit the other subsidiaries. I hope you can entertain him in Singapore."

"Of course!" Timothy answered. His gaze lingered towards Jennie's face for a few seconds before he turned towards his tea. After seeing the video of Chen Shi being crazy at the hotel, Timothy was grateful for Jennie's help in making sure that his father was safe. He was not particularly close to Chen Shi so her arrest did not have any emotional affect on him. Of course, seeing his mother attempt to murder his father was still heart breaking.

Jennie and Taehyung talked to- scratch that. Jennie continued talking to the Liang Family while Taehyung listened and sat there silently, occasionally nodding his head, observing the people around him as if they have nothing to do with him.

Seeing this, Jennie let out a sigh inwardly. Maybe this approach wouldn't work for him. She immediately made a mental note to ask Lisa for tips later on. Maybe the latter could help her.
