Jungkook halted his steps and glanced at Lisa behind him. She quickly presented the gift in her hand as she responded apologetically, "We were late because we rushed to buy some stuff. Happy birthday!""Since when do you do things like this? I'd be happier if you transferred a good amount into my account. But seriously, when was the last time you gave me a gift? I'm sure it's not your idea!" Bambam accepted the gift from Lisa with a grin. "Thanks, Lisa!"
Lisa nodded with a smile.
"Come and sit. Everyone's been waiting. Take a look at the menu and order anything you like. It's gonna be a fabulous night!"
Bambam seemed delighted as he waved his hand to the waiter to serve them wine. Everyone then raised their glasses in unison.
They sat down after a round of toast.
"Is your wife alright? I heard about some news and looked around for a bit. Things seem complicated, but I never believed that Lisa would do something like that," Bambam said quietly after he sat down close to Jungkook. Glancing at Lisa who was sipping her wine, he noticed that she was still her cool usual self. Two other girls went up to talk to her and she gave them a warm smile.
"It's alright. Someone's just messing with her," Jungkook replied straightforwardly.
"Who exactly wants to mess with her? Matters like this aren't a joke! What the heck!?" Bambam's eyes turned icy.
"It's going to be over soon. Just wait and see."
"Same old thing. Let me know if there's anything I can help with." Bambam did not press on the matter. He glanced at Jungkook and they had another drink again.
The men started smoking and playing cards together while the girls sang karaoke. From time to time, Lisa glanced at Jungkook who was focused on the cards. After a while, her phone started ringing. It was a call from the Manoban Residence.
She frowned a little before she stood up and went outside.
It was Boonlong calling. He was mainly concerned about the same matter.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I'm alright. Jungkook said he'll take care of it, so things will be okay."
"Mmm, since things have come down to this, take better care of yourself."
"I got it, Grandpa. Rest earlier. I'll visit you soon."
Lisa took a deep breath after hanging up on the call. She grabbed the cold railing with one hand and held her phone tightly with the other.
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps behind her, and the whiff of cologne surrounded her. Before Lisa could turn around, that person's nefarious voice reached her ears. "Long time no see. Nice to see you, Ms. Lalisa!"
With a deep frown, she turned around to the voice calling out to her. It was Mingyu!
Armed with a wicked smile on his handsome face, a light flashed through his eyes as he stared straight at Lisa.
"Vice President Kim! Nice to see you." After a while, Lisa raised her eyebrows and looked at him on alert. "I heard you've been working hard for Yueying recently. The person who asked you for help must be a big shot."
"Tsk tsk, look at your tone of voice... I did help you out after all. If you come to me, I might help you out again. I've always admired you, Ms. Lalisa."
Mingyu put on his creepy smile and teased her, "However, I think you're even more of a big shot here., Jungkook actually sent you to Yueying. I can see that he thinks highly of you."
