The CEO's Woman

Chapter 159 - Grave

Jennie gazed at her reflection solemnly.

Her eyes were fluffy, lips chapped. She looked... she looked terrible!

At least she only looked terrible. While her cousin was lying there in the ICU, unconscious.

This was all because of her. Because she was just too full of herself.

She was overconfident believing that her plan would work properly, that everything would happen just like she had predicted. .

She had forgotten that she was not a god. She was still powerless. A mortal. A weak mortal.

Jennie gazed at her face once more before scrubbing the blood stains off her arms.

She did not particularly hate blood. But this time, she could not help but just hate it to the core. She hated having Wang Mino's blood on her.

It was a sign of her weakness. Her vulnerability.

She let out a long sigh before making sure that she was clean from the scarlet liquid that was all over her just a while ago.

Then she took one last glance at her reflection before putting on her shades to cover her swollen eyes.

The moment Jennie took a step out of the comfort room, Zhao Chittip instantly rushed towards her.

"Are you alright?" her mother asked.

Jennie just nodded, giving her a fake smile.

"Young Miss, the doctor wants to talk to you in his office. He said that the young master is already safe but he needed to tell you some important things." She heard Wang Bolin say.

"Did you inform uncle?" She asked.

"Yes... he is on his way. As well as... your grandfather." He answered respectfully.

"Grandfather? He is awake?"

"Yes, young miss. They were supposed to surprise you, the moment you went back. That's why Young Master Mino did not inform you earlier."

Jennie lowered her head, biting her lips. She was trying her best to suppress her emotions and stop her tears, that were threatening to fall.

"Let's go I will accompany you to the doctor." Zhao Chittip said and held Jennie's arms.

Jennie did not say anything. She just let Zhao Chittip guide her to the doctor's office.

The moment they arrived at the doctor's office, the doctor's assistant immediately asked them to have a seat.

"Hello, Miss kim... Madam Manoban. » The doctor respectfully bowed towards Zhao Chittip. As this hospital was one of the many hospitals under the Manoban family, it was not surprising for the doctor to bow to Zhao Chittip.

"Get to the point." Zhao Chittip said.

"Very well... Young Master Wang was shot in his back and the bullet penetrated his abdomen. We found the bullet in his ruptured intestine." The doctor paused deliberately, giving some time for Jennie to process his words. "The good thing is that the bullet did not hit any of his major organs or bones."

"Right now the Young Master Wang is still unconscious in the ICU, but I assure you that he will wake up in more or less than 24 hours from now. After he wakes up, we will transfer him to a private room."

"Aside from this, I would like to inform you that all of our resident doctors will surely take good care of him."

"So.. let your heart be at ease. Your cousin is safe in our hands." After talking to the doctor, Zhao Chittip and Jennie immediately made their way towards the ICU and saw Wang Mino lying on the bed.

At this point, Jennie was unable to stop herself from crying again. Watching her cousin like this... was just too much for her.

« Jenjen... you should stop crying. Your cousin will not be happy if he gets to know that you were crying while watching him." Zhao Chittip said while patting Jennie's back.

Her mother was right. Her cousin would not be happy knowing that she was just crying the whole time that she was there.

Jennie clenched her jaw as the duo left the ICU.

Yes... her cousin would not want her to be sad. He always wanted her to be happy. Always be happy.

And there was only one thing that could make her happy now.

she let out a long sigh before walking towards Wang Bolin.

She knew what she needed to do now.

"Where is she?" She asked, her gaze dark and evil. "Where is that woman?"

"She is at one of Madam Manoban's houses. She tried to run away but we were able to catch her in time. Madam Manoban offered one of the Manoban Family's safe houses, so we brought her there." Wang Bolin answered while clenching his jaw.

Though he was not the one who had caused Wang Mino's injury, the guilt that he was feeling right now was almost the same as Jennie's.

As he was in charge of making sure that the police would arrive on time, yet he was unable to do his job properly.

He had failed to protect the young miss and the young master. He failed his job. He deserved to be punished.

Hence, Wang Bolin had already planned to turn himself in to Old Man Wang, after all of this was over.

"Good. Take me to her." He heard Jennie say.

Her voice low and grave.
