The CEO's Woman

Chapter 190 - Culprit

Lisa just stared at her before shaking his head. "Why don't we register our marriage tomorrow?"

"Huh? Good suggestion. I was actually thinking about the same. Let's do it tomorrow before I go to fetch Alex at the airport." Jennie agreed. The culprit's purpose was to ruin her relationship with Lisa and stop their marriage.

However, that would not work if they register their marriage ahead of time.

"But, I suggest to keep our marriage a secret until we know who is behind all of this." She added.

Lisa nodded in response. Jennie had a point, they couldn't just go public with their marriage without knowing who was their enemy.. Aside from this, Lisa knew that Jennie had a tendency to feel discomfort if she was not controlling the entire situation. He wouldn't want her to lose her focus.

"By the way, who exactly is this Alex?" He asked.

"Oh... she is the hacker who helped to attack our softwares. I need her help for my plan." Jennie answered before looking at her laptop again. She was doing everything to minimize the losses of their three companies. "I believe the culprit will leak this incident to the media tomorrow or the next day."

"I think so too. Don't worry about it. I have already informed some of our people in media to check the source of this news." Lisa said.

"Tell them to be as low key as possible. I don't want to alert the culprit. Let's make them think that they are winning." Jennie said while stifling a yawn. "It had been a few days since they did the malware attack. They must be celebrating by now. Oh... I'm just curious, when will your father give you the patriarch position?"

"After we get married."

"What? You didn't tell me about it before! What will happen if we keep our marriage a secret?" Jennie exclaimed.

"The chosen patriarch will not be legitimate until he has a matriarch. My Father will not be able to pass the title to me until I get married. So, as long as we keep it a secret, he will still be the acting patriarch of the Manoban Family. " Lisa answered before his gaze turned gentle. "I'm sorry that I still can't give you the proper title despite we are getting married tomorrow."

"Hmmm... Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal." She said before walking towards him and giving him a kiss on the check. "I've got you and I don't need a fancy title. I already have everything that I needed."

...

On the next day, the duo registered their marriage secretly before going to the airport to fetch Alex.

"Finally." Lisa said, unable to stop his grin. She was finally his. After watching her for so many years in his previous life, today, she was finally his. Only his. It was such a special day for him.

Of course not only he felt this way, but even Jennie was also ecstatic. The whole process of their marriage registration became a blur for her. She felt like she was floating, unable to express her happiness.

In her previous life, her wedding was held in a very grand way to show everyone, especially her stepsister, that she was ahead of her. However, at the end of the say, she was only satisfied but not happy.

Now, she got married in secret. Away from the prying eyes. No unnecessary arrangements, no grand celebrations. However, her happiness was beyond the heavens.

"To forever?" Jennie asked as she looked at Lisa, her eyes filled with unspoken happiness.

"And beyond." Lisa answered, before wrapping her into his arms. Then he leaned in for a kiss.

She was his. And he was hers.

Finally.

...

Of course this move was something that the culprit hadn't anticipated.

The culprit wanted to separate the two.

As the saying goes: divide and conquer..

A simple strategy that the culprit used and was still planning to use.

He or she wanted to divide the Wang Family's power and disperse their influence. And, of course, if possible prevent Lisa's wedding to Jennie.

The culprit clearly wanted to weaken both the Wang Family and the Manoban Family.

However, he or she didn't even suspect that one of his or her goals had already been impossible to achieve.

The culprit was now causing them as much trouble as he or she could, desperately trying to divert their attention from his or her true goal.

He or she thought that his or her intelligence was superior than Lisa and Jennie's combined.

Who would have thought that the culprit's advance strategy would also be the reason of his or her downfall?

Of course this was for later.

For now, let's watch our favorite coulpe exert themselves planning a counterattack on the culprit.
