JENNIE POV:"Ah, Miss Kim. You didn't know that Young Mistress Manoban has purchased the whole apartment building for a while? She has been living in the penthouse for a while as well."
"N-Nini, this old man is speaking gibberish. Of course, you wouldn't believe it, right?" Lisa said, trying to convince me and twisted the words. "I ... I don't have enough money to buy the whole building-"
"Lisa Brüschweiler Manoban," I called her full name, and Lisa straightened immediately.
"Y-Yes!"
"Follow me." I grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the exclusive elevator only served for the penthouse owner, "Use your card."
"I-I don't have a card like that .... "
"Lisa Manoban."
"Y-YES!" Lisa took out her wallet and used her card to enter the elevator.
Ding!
We entered the elevator in silence. Lisa was fidgety and antsy while I stood straight, still holding her wrist with a bit of pressure.
"N-Nini, I wasn't doing anything illegal .... "
"I know."
"Nini, I really did no harm to anyone, trust me .... "
"I trust you."
"N-Nini, can you speak more than just two or three words? It scares me .... "
"I don't feel like it."
Ding!
The elevator quickly reached my floor. I kept dragging Lisa to my apartment door and unlocked it. I pushed Lisa to the sofa and then sat face to face with her.
Lisa looked nervous, and I understood that she must've been feeling guilty. But I didn't want her to act like this. I just didn't want her to waste money over something so unnecessary.
"N-Nini, are you sure you're okay? Your expression doesn't look too good."
"Well, guess which person did this to me," I replied curtly.
"Wu ... I admit that I bought this apartment ... but it was because I don't want you to be harmed, Nini!?" Lisa tried to defend herself. "Besides, I don't like it when you're being hunted by the Landlady! That's why I bought all the buildings. I'm the new landlord."
"But the landlady still came to get her money every month," I reminded. I still remember that middle-aged lady still came for money about a week ago.
"But she cut the price down to half, right? That's because I told her not to extort too much money" Lisa said.
"Then why can't you just tell me that you've purchased the whole building! Why do you need to hide it from me?" I confronted her immediately, not wanting to go back and forth with this conversation.
"T-That's because you have a lot of pride, Nini," Lisa replied. She lowered her head shamefully. "I-I want to help with your financial condition, but you never let me. So this is the only way for me to help you without being too obvious. Or you will definitely hate me for it."
