Seeing the various changes in her expression, Lisa knew that Jennie was indeed a smart woman. She did not need many hints to understand all the problems she was facing.

Lisa said Nothing and took out his electronic car key to open the car door.

This time, Jennie did not refuse him. She looked at him hesitantly as he got into the driver's seat. She walked towards the Land Rover hesitantly.

The car window was slowly lowered as he spoke in a low magnetic voice, "Get in."

"President Manoban–"

"Jennie." He suddenly called her by her name, causing her to be stunned for a moment. A little impatience appeared in his eyes. "Is it difficult to lower your self-esteem to one person?"

Jennie opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, "I do not have a noble and holy personality. In this era, those who are not afraid of power are all immature nationalist youth; only just because I compromise doesn't mean I have to lowered my head to anyone!"

"Was this the way you compromise?" Lisa sneered as he started the engine, turned the steering wheel, and drove the car into the traffic.

"Besides marrying you, is there any other way to solve this problem?" Jennie took a deep breath.

"Nothing is absolute. However, looking at it from other points, other than this method, there is no other way for us." Lisa's gaze was fixed on the traffic, and his voice was so calm that it was difficult to say whether he was happy or angry.

"But we ..."

"News that you are my fiancee has been spread by the media and the public. Explaining it will only bring worse results." Lisa shifted gears and accelerated. "Eunwoo or any of the Lee Family wants to take revenge on you. With your current situation, you are like a locust trying to stop the car. If they want to touch you, it is as easy as destroying an ant."

Jennie suddenly realized that Lisa did not even ask her where she lived. Thinking about the information he had collected about herself, she immediately took a stand. She felt this man's calmness was terrifying.

"I know you have a brother. You depend on your job to earn money to live, and you also have to support your brother for his college fees."

"What are you talking about?" Jennie looked at him carefully

In just one day, Lisa managed to investigate all these things!

"If you want to be a strong woman, you should also consider your condition. Moreover, in the face of such a dilemma, even if you do not consider your safety, you should still consider your brother's."

Jennie looked at the man who had an indifferent expression on his face. "Could it be that all rich people are willing to do anything to protect themselves? Even if the person in front of you is a woman you do not know?"

Lisa suddenly looked at her with cold eyes. "Miss Kim, I have another solution for this situation. Do you want to die because of illness or do you want to disappear from this world with another way? As a dead woman, I don't have to take responsibility for you."

Jennie's expression changed immediately. She understood the meaning behind his words. She did not need him to explain in detail.

"Alright, then." She lowered her eyes and laughed to herself in a low voice. "I am just an ordinary human being who afraid of death."

Lisa looked at her meaningfully. "Miss Kim, are you laughing at yourself? First, this marriage is to protect yourself, and secondly, you can use your reputation as my wife to defeat your ex-lover. Shouldn't you be happy?"

Be happy about what? She just sold her soul to the devil!

Five minutes later, the black Land Rover had left under the dim light of the night while Jennie stood in front of the entrance, completely dazed and motionless.

One was to protect herself; the other was to attack Eunwoo.

She, Jennie, had also lost her rational due to her anger.

While she was lost in thought, she suddenly felt someone was looking at her from a public phone booth across the residential complex street.

Jennie looked at the phone booth, and sure enough, she saw a small, sneaky man who seemed to be hiding something in his clothes in a panic.

It was a miniature camera.

Realizing the situation, Jennie quickly entered her house.
