Mr. L's DILEMMA: Can't Help Falling Inlove With You

Chapter 140

Jennie went blank, and her dreamy eyes seemed to glaze over.

What Kai had brought up was the untouchable, forbidden topic in her heart.

Her lips quivered a little, and the bangs that hung over her forehead shifted over her fair face.

Kai could not see her expression, but he was well aware that she was subconsciously avoiding this question...

The north wind was blowing even stronger when they came out if the restaurant.

Jennie's body shrunk back into her coat as her little face retreated into the red scart. Kai saw this and reached out to help rewrap the scarf around her neck. "If there's any news, I'll call you. However, are you going to personally tell Lisa about this, or do I tell him?"

Jennie shook her head and panicked a little. "I'll tell him myself. If you tell him, he'll be..."

She was embarrassed to utter the word "jealous".

There were certain things that everyone would prefer not to be put out into the open.

The valet drove the car over and Jennie got in. As she waved goodbye to Kai from the driver's seat, she kept getting the feeling that there was a pair of eyes watching her from somewhere...

Zhong Heng International. Lisa sat in the large office chair with a stack of photos scattered across his desk.

The man's expression was extremely grim, and his dark and narrow eyes were animalistic and angry. His dark figure was surrounded in a swirl of thin white smoke, as his gloomy expression overshadowed his usual steady demeanor!

Yan Jun dared not interrupt Lisa but he still had to report to him. "Young Master, you called for me?"

His eyes dared not glance around, but Lisa's dark face really concerned Yan Jun.

Was something catastrophic about to happen?

"Go and find out the source of these photos. Furthermore, have someone tail my wife secretly from tomorrow onwards!"

Lisa's surly tone caused Yan Jun to shudder.

Yan Jun sneaked a glance at the pictures on the desk- in the warm light-filled restaurant, Young Master Kai was presenting a bouquet of flower to Mistress; Young Master Kai had pulled out a paper towel and was helping Mistress to wipe her mouth; in front of the restaurant, the tall and handsome man was wrapping the Scarf around Mistress as if he were protecting his dear kitten...

After taking a sharp breath, Yan Jun realized the gravity of the situation.

He had stayed by Lisa's side for a few years now. Young Master's germophobic and possessive traits were all well known by Yan Jun. Moreover, this young mistress had always had a precious place in Young Master's heart. At least, that
was what Yan Jun thought.

What was going on with Mistress? Was something major about to happen?

"I'll investigate it. However, Young Master, there could be more to this than meets the eye. You..." Yan Jun wanted to vouch for Jennie, but when he saw Lisa's cold gaze fixed on him, Yan Jun hurriedly shut his mouth.

Someone was deliberately trying to sow doubt into Mistress and Young Master's relationship!

This was Yan Jun's first impression, but he dared not simply express his thoughts to Lisa.

However, Yan Jun still felt that he could smell a rat involved.

Yesterday night, Lisa did not sleep well after picking up Mistress' call, and he had rushed all the way back from Wintry Lake early in the morning.

Before he arrived home, a few of the old men from the aristocratic families were making noise at the entrance to the company, demanding to see Lisa. They were here about the pawns in their network whom Lisa had previously dealt with.

In Luo Hai, the battle between the long-established powers and the new forces that were represented by Lisa had been going on for some time now. It was just that this time, Lisa's move was overly assertive and he had uprooted some of the aristocratic families' underlings a bit too coldly. He had done so in a neat and organized manner without showing any mercy.

One small event could have a butterfly effect. Thus, the old men could not hold back.

They brought the matter to the company group, and Kang Yu could not deal with it alone, hence he could only call Lisa.

Although Lisa had a forceful way of doing things, he was particularly slick when dealing with the older generation.

He soon pacified the old men with a few words, then had them wait indefinitely.

It was already afternoon by the time he finished dealing with the troublesome people on this end. Lisa was feeling a little tired, and just as he sat down in his office, his secretary sent in a package that the reception desk had just received.

The courier said that there was an important document that he had to personally give to CEO Manoban. The front desk felt that this was bizarre, so they asked the courier to give the stuff to Yan Jun.

At the time, Yan Jun dared not open it, but little did he know that it would be filled with pictures...

"Young Master, Deputy Mayor Chen would like to invite you to dinner at Delight House. Would you like to accept his invitation?"

Yan Jun asked cautiously while looking at Lisa's expression.
