Master Jeon's Pampered Wife

"Grandpa, it's a great opportunity. I think you'll be interested in a project under Glory World, but it'd be unfair if I tell you about it, so you should come and take a look for yourself. I think you'd be satisfied." Lisa threw out a bait, causing Boonlong to stop moving his hand that was holding a Go stone. He raised his gray eyebrows and glanced at Lisa. "What project?"

Lisa pursed her lips and glanced over at Jungkook, smiling. "I won't tell you for now. You'll find out on that day. Go and take a look. I'm in charge of this project. I heard from Uncle Lan that you've been pretty interested in South River recently."

"So, does Glory World have some ideas on the South River too?"

Boonlong seemed interested now. He glanced at Jungkook, and then looked back at Lisa. Giving it some thought, he replied, "You know, Kim Corporation and Kim Group contacted me recently. However, I am indeed interested in South River."

Kim Group?

Lisa frowned when she heard the name. Of course, she did not forget what happened. Although she had never dealt with Kim Group before, she heard from Vice President Lee during the anniversary celebration that Glory World had conflicts with Kim Group before when collaborating with several other companies.

"Anyway, Grandpa, you should just come. On that day, there'll be others aside from Kim Group and Kim Corporation attending. Also, can you convince Mother to attend along together with you?"

Lisa actually hoped for Chitthip to put up a tough act since Deng Wenwen was shameless enough to look for her. She would not just give up so easily and she wanted Chitthip to portray a sturdy attitude, especially on this matter.

"Your mother?" Boonlong became alert when he heard Lisa's request. He looked at Lisa, slightly shocked.

"Mmm," Lisa sighed before she nodded with a heavy expression as she sipped some tea.

"Forget about it. You know your mother dislikes events like these. I understand that you youngsters have fresh ideas, but let her live in peace and don't bother her. It's not been easy for her to keep on going after so many years. If something else happens to her again, I don't think I can be responsible and tell your dead grandma about it."

Boonlong placed his Go piece down with a disappointed expression on his face. "She has a knot in her heart, and you know exactly what that is. Let her forget all about the unhappy past. It's not a bad idea living a little more carefree."

"But..."

Jungkook stopped her when she was about to continue. "That's enough, Lis. Listen to Grandpa. Grandpa, it's your turn now."

Boonlong's expression softened as he picked up another piece...

At that moment, there were sounds of footsteps outside followed by Aunt Xu's voice.

"Madam, do I take all of these into the kitchen?"

"Mmm, wash the vegetables. I'll handle the fish."

Chitthip's figure appeared before Lisa's eyes.

After receiving a call from Jungkook in the morning and finding out that her daughter and son-in-law were going to come for dinner, Chitthip had gone out after a light breakfast. Aside from buying ingredients for dinner, she had also bought some New Year goodies too.

As usual, Lisa became Chitthip's helper in the kitchen. When she saw Chitthip's frosty expression, there seemed to be tension in the air. Lisa was not able to bring up the matter about Luna going to look for her before.

The atmosphere around the mother-daughter pair was getting awkward and no one said a thing.

After some time passed while they prepared several dishes together, Lisa, who was preparing the seasoning, looked at Chitthip. She hesitated for a moment and then said quietly, "Mother, Father made me bring you something. There's also a document..."
