DO NOT VOTE! Thank you!

Jennie, who was on the other end of the line, felt suspicious. "He's drained? How is that possible? I've been staying there as per Mr. Manoban's instructions. I've been keeping an eye on your Big Brother's meals and living habits.

"Although he was busy occasionally and might have worked late, he would usually sleep on time.

"Besides, I knew that he would have a check-up soon, so I asked him about it yesterday night. Your brother told me that everything was fine and nothing was wrong. Besides, he seems to be in good condition..."

The corners of Sungjae's mouth twitched as he replied dully, "Daddy, be careful! Given my Big Brother's intelligence, it's easy for him to lie to you. Everything is not normal. He has a sickly body, and I have been talking to Second Brother and the others for more than three hours. The doctor said that his physical strength has reached its maximum and he is merely enduring out of sheer willpower. He could collapse at any moment. Besides, his high fever hasn't subsided for days..."

"How could that be..." Jennie frowned when she heard Sungjae. "Where is your brother now?"

Sungjae replied, "He just got out of the hospital. He asked Seulgi to bring all his work-related documents home."

Jennie nodded. "Got it. I'll come back now."

Sungjae heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Jennie. He then thought of how timid she was and his heart started racing. "Alright then. I hope that my brother will listen to you."

Half an hour later, Jennie got out of her car in a rush.

"Where is Mr. Manoban?" Jennie's eyes darted to the people in the living room. Rowoon, Sungjae, and everyone else were present. They all looked worried and anxious.

In a corner of the living room were a doctor and an assistant in white coats. She had seen Lisa's doctor before, when he had lost control.

The two of them were reading a report while looking troubled.

"In the study," said Rowoon.

"Is it really that serious?" Jennie frowned.

Sungjae nodded vigorously. "If we weren't present, Professor Tan would have suggested that we abduct him and take him to the hospital."

Jennie imagined her fight with Lisa, and shuddered in fear.

"I'll go take a look..." Jennie was still puzzled. "Professor Tan isn't reliable at all. I've been observing your brother for some time, and he seems to be in a good mood... He doesn't look like what you had said..."

Sungjae was exasperated. "My brother is in a good mood in front of you. He just needs to see you. How can a person in love be in a bad mood?"

Jennie replied, "Errr..."

How could this happen?

Sungjae added, "However, this doesn't change the fact that he has drained and damaged himself. Before you came along, Big Sister-In-Law, Big Brother had lost control of himself too many times. Every time he lost control, it would damage his body greatly. His body has been severely damaged."

Rowoon added, "I would like to trouble you, Miss Kim. Let's see if you can persuade Big Brother to stay in the hospital for some time."

Jennie scratched her head. "I'll try my best... You should know that I might not be able to persuade him."

He was the head of a multinational corporation and the Manoban Family. How could she make him listen to her? Besides, Lisa's aura made her cower in fear the moment she faced him.
