DO NOT VOTE! Thank you!
______

Rowoon looked as if he had something to say. However, he stopped himself in time when he saw his older brother looking impatient.

"Miss Kim, you don't have to thank me. It's nothing worth mentioning. I have something going on, so I shall get a move on."

Thus, he uttered an excuse and left to avoid being a hindrance.

Deep down, Rowoon was amazed and shocked. He realized that his brother was especially good-tempered when Jennie Kim was around. He had even seen a rare smile on his face...

After Rowoon left, Jennie hastily spoke up as she glanced at Lisa. "Mr. Manoban, I'm so sorry. You helped me last night, yet I did something disrespectful to you. I've offended you because my mind was befuddled by alcohol. I wouldn't dare to do it again. Please forgive me this time..."

Jennie was a little jittery when she finished speaking, as she had no idea how Lisa would react.

Lisa was a man of a certain status, power and wealth. If he really wanted to make things difficult for her, she wouldn't be able to do anything.

Actually, as a girl, she would have been taken advantage of under normal circumstances. However, the other party had been Lisa...

No matter how she tried to explain this, she was the one who had taken advantage of him.

When Lisa heard her plea, his gaze turned thoughtful. "I hope so," he replied softly.

Jennie, who saw that he didn't have any intention of pursuing the matter, heaved a sigh of relief. "Please don't worry. I will never appear before you again!"

Lisa narrowed his eyes dangerously when he heard her. However, this reaction was fleeting.

Lisa's eyes scanned the girl, who looked determined. "Since you have assured me, Miss Kim, I can rest easy. I'll get the chauffeur to take you back."

Jennie's first instinct was to reject his offer. However, a moment later, she changed her mind. In hindsight, there wouldn't be any public transport available in the vicinity. It was too expensive to take a cab, and she was broke. She should save money whenever she could.

"Then... thank you!"

It looked like she'd had the wrong idea about Lisa. She hadn't expected him to be so nice.

Oh yeah! Hadn't the news reported that he was critically ill? He looked as if there was nothing wrong with him!
Sure enough, one should never believe rumors.

...

After Jennie left, Rowoon pushed the door to enter the room again.

"Big Brother, are you really alright?"

He had initially thought that Lisa would be in a coma for another extended period of time. He had never expected that he would wake up after being sent home.

Lisa's eyes darted past the windows and his gaze fell upon the girl downstairs. "Do I look unwell?"

Rowoon shook his head.

Not only did he seem fine, but his spirits and mood seemed pretty good.

It had been a long while since he had seen his brother looking this good.
"Big Brother, who is that girl?" Rowoon attempted to sound him out.

Based on Jennie's reaction, she didn't seem to know his brother.

However, based on his brother's expression... he seemed to have known her for a long time...

Lisa retracted his gaze and replied casually, "Your sister-in-law."

Rowoon was shocked!
