Master Jeon's Pampered Wife

0:91

Once Shanshan finished, Lisa was stunned. Naturally, she did not miss Shanshan's concealed admiration in her eyes which was unexpected to her. Then, she watched the man beside her in amusement, yet the man's expression remained as usual. His eyes were still as water, his gaze brushing past Shanshan and looking ahead as if he did not see Shanshan.

Lisa followed his gaze and saw Hanbin and Luna walking over.

Despite downing her drink, Shanshan, who did not receive a response, saw how Jungkook did not even take as much of a glance at her as if he did not hear her voice. The awkwardness could not be concealed from her beautiful face, especially when a few people shot her odd glances from the side...

Her face could not help but sink. When she saw Hanbin and Luna walk over, she retreated, feeling upset and seeming embarrassed.

Hanbin was a gentleman and he acknowledged as he walked up to Jungkook, "Congratulations, Chairman Jeon."

"Sis, you're really beautiful today! I knew that you were always..." Luna still looked very pale, but there was a faint smile on her face. She looked so vulnerable that it made one feel sorry for her.

When Luna said this, Shanshan's glance turned bitter. She was about to reach out to pull Luna away, yet the latter had walked right up to Lisa. She took a glass of wine from the waiter's tray and handed it to Lisa. "Sis, I want to make a toast to you to wish you a Happy New Year, and may Glory World take it to the next level!"

Lisa observed at the wine that was handed to her and raised her brows before exchanging a look with Jungkook beside her. After some thought, she then slowly reached out, yet before she could hold it steadily, there was an outcry —

The sloshing of the wine was heard. At the same time, Chaeyoung's voice called out, "Lisa, watch out!"

Lisa realized something almost at the same time. Her hand reached down at lightning speed and caught the glass that fell by a close shave as the wine that splashed out wet her hand.

A sneer quickly appeared at the corner of her mouth as she looked meaningfully at Luna who seemed alarmed and apologetic. Then, she smiled wryly without uttering a word. She only looked at her indifferently, then peered down at the half-empty glass.

"I'm sorry... It wasn't on purpose," Luna murmured apologetically with her head lowered.

The moment Luna said that, Chaeyoung refuted her, "I think you were doing it on purpose. How repulsive!"

"Watch what you're saying!" Shanshan immediately rushed over defensively.

Lisa was calm as usual though. Her smile faintly showed hints of ridicule, yet her twinkling eyes were dense with an indescribable gloominess and even complication. She just inhaled and looked on apathetically at Luna who feigned innocence, her cold voice as calm as autumn waters as she lamented, "Apart from using such tricks, can't you change to something else like ruin my gown? Or did you want the opportunity to tell whoever that I didn't give you face, intentionally not accepting your glass? To complain before Grandfather and Grandmother about how I crossed the line? Did you forget? You've already used this same trick at my 16th birthday banquet. Back then, I didn't seem to be like this right now. I took the glass you handed, but it shattered all over the floor and even hurt your foot..."

Lisa paused and watched Luna's face instantly freeze up. She then smiled and continued, "After that, because of this incident, Grandmother punished me by making me face the wall. I knelt in her study room for a whole night. And that other time when the gown was burnt, remember? Luna, it seems that every single time, you'd only know how to... mmm, right... just like you are right now, looking very innocent and wronged. Tell us that you didn't do it on purpose. Don't you know that an excessive coincidence no longer becomes a coincidence? That's just ingenuity. Do you think you're someone who could scheme like this?"
