Dilemma

98.

The questions shocked Clove.

Both of Jungkook's hands were clasped on his forehead while his sharp gaze was directed at Clove. He did not want to miss any details.

This man was already a composed and dark person. When he used this gaze to scrutinize others, anyone would feel threatened by the piercing coldness that seemed to be able to see through everything.

Clove was momentarily speechless before she looked at Grandmother for help.

Old Mistress sighed to indicate that she was somewhat unhappy with Jungkook's attitude.

She quietly said, "I told Clove many things about Eunha when she was younger.

As sisters, their genetics would naturally be similar. When Clove said that she had fallen gravely ill several times when she was younger, I thought about it and realized that Eunha had gotten terribly sick at around the same time too. It looks like these two beauties were destined to have a close sisterly bond – their hearts were linked!"

Old Mistress' eyes were filled with tender affection as she said this.

It looked like she really wanted to raise Clove as if she was Eunha.

"If you're unwilling to accompany her to Liu Li Villa, then I'll do it instead!"

When she saw that Jungkook was still acting in this way, Old Mistress finally used her trump card.

Old Mistress Jeon was willing to go overboard for the sake of this girl who was an outsider from another family.

However, it was inadvisable for elderly people to engage in outdoor activities during the colder seasons of autumn and winter. Even if Jungkook was not completely obedient, he would not allow her to act so recklessly.

It was difficult to comprehend why people became more stubborn as they grew older.

Lisa saw that Jungkook's expression had been gloomy all this while and realized that not only was this man insufferably arrogant, he had been manipulating others all this while. However, after being pushed around by these women today, his heart probably felt horribly suffocated.

According to a famous saying, three people were a crowd. In this house, the three women here were clearly lively. 1

"Since it's come to this, I'll accompany Clove to Liu Li Villa for a visit. But, please don't complain if I don't look after you attentively, Miss Zhao."

Jungkook suddenly changed his stance as the creases on his face became much gentler. He fixed his gaze on her, but his tone was just as deep as before. Moreover, he affectionately addressed her as "Clove" now, instead of the previous "Miss Zhao" that made them seem distant.

These changes made Clove unexpectedly happy. It could even be said that she was beside herself with joy.

She excitedly tugged at Jungkook's sleeve while her light-hearted smile showed off her glowing white teeth. "Brother Jeon, you're too kind. I was really worried that you weren't going to agree..."

Jungkook faintly furrowed his eyebrows and calmly touched his shirt sleeve before he unintentionally glanced at Lisa.

Lisa subtly twitched, but her face remained cold and gloomy. She icily scrutinized Jungkook and Clove as her heart silently cursed.

Hmph! Was this not the wrong place to act in a spoiled manner? Were they assuming that the mistress was blind?

Moreover, what happened to the man's freaking germaphobia? Lisa thought that he was making a fool out of himself!

Jungkook's gaze continued to observe Lisa's face. The woman then intentionally revealed a faint smirk before she turned away and forced him to look at the back of her head.

Meanwhile, Clove was still rattling on.

"I heard Grandmother say that Brother Jeon has made Liu Li Villa very beautiful and that it contains rare plants from the outside world. Moreover, there are even some plants there that can't be found anywhere else on the planet. Most people have never even gotten Brother Jeon's permission to go there!"

They couldn't tell whether Clove was truly stupid, or if she was intentionally bragging. Her gentle voice continuously droned on as if she was the most excited person in the world.

In order to drown out her presence, Lisa softened the sound of her breathing and acted as if the woman in front of her was not talking about her husband.

At this point, Clove suddenly turned around and asked Lisa, "Lalisa, are you coming with us to Liu Li Villa?"

Her tone already made her feelings obvious. She was hoping that Lisa would say no...

A weary and indescribable look of exhaustion appeared on Lisa's face when she asked this.

Cloe reacted towards Jungkook in an excessively excited manner that seemed absolutely shameless. Lisa recalled Somi's comments of Tzuyu earlier that day when she had said that Tzuyu had spent her entire life only hoping to marry a good man...

Had she not possessed the same desires towards Jungkook during her youth?

However, complying with Jungkook's wishes right now was something that she was truly not willing to do.

Moreover, she was acutely aware of the fact that she was just one of the many people in Jungkook's heart.

When she recalled those words, her heart was filled with a deep pain.

When Lisa heard Clove's words, she did not hesitate at all before replying, "I'm not interested! Brother Jeon should accompany you alone so that I won't have to be the third wheel!"

The arrogant woman had just slapped "cheating couple" in the face.
