His Contractual Mistress || Liskook Adaptation

Chapter: 42

After Lisa brought Jungkook's light snacks into the study, she went to her bedroom and took a shower.

Under the running water, she could not stop thinking of what excuse she will give to everyone and why she has to ignore their calls and messages.

Lisa put on her pyjamas and dried her hair.

She got off her room and headed outside.

She was now at the pool area eating her salad while debating within herself.

Restless, Lisa sat up; pacing around the pool area.

She halted near a pine tree and watched the city lights that dazzle her eyes. She could see the heavy traffic is still going on.

Seriously, those flyovers need to finish soon to lighten up this problem.

She learned that it was supposed to be Jungkook's project but another builder company wins the bid. But then several issues she heard about this company delayed the completion of the said project.

And after Jungkook lose on the bidding, he was more focused on building tall skyscrapers, such as space buildings for lease, penthouses, and condos.

Lisa heaves a long sigh. She shook her head and prepares herself to turn off the aeroplane mode on her phone.

And she was right! She almost passed out to receiving hundreds of messages from the boys, including Karina. They also contacted her. Not only that, countless voicemails keep coming in.

She tried to read everyone's messages, but it was too much. Lisa could not finish it in just a short time.

At the moment, she didn't know who was first to reply. But she must call her dad before anyone else. Lisa heard a sigh of relief after the call connected.

"Lisa! My goodness! Why did you turn off your phone?"

"I'm sorry, daddy!" she apologized. Lisa's heart is breaking at the moment. She is missing her dad badly.

"Princess... Do you know how worried I am that I can't reach you every day? What is going on?"

"I am very sorry about that, Dad. I'm working on something lately."

"What is it?"

"Okay... But please, come back home."

'I want to, dad! But I signed a contract, and you will have a heart attack once you knew I was living with a man and acting as his mistress!'

Heaving a sigh inwardly, she was careful not to let her dad hear it. She uttered, "I'll come home soon, Dad."

"When is it, Princess? Everyone is worried about you!"

"I didn't mean to make you guys worry."

"We don't want you to feel sad or think that you are alone. We are all here for you!"

Lisa pushed a thin smile across her beautiful face. Everyone still thinks that she was heartbroken until now.

"Don't worry, Dad. I am long over Jimin. Everything I do now has nothing to do with him or the past." 'I only wish for the future.' Lisa wanted to add this, but she kept it to herself.

But what will be her future? She cannot look past through yet when she has to focus on her dream project.

"Anyway, Bambam is here for a vacation. He wanted to talk to you," said Jacob Davies.

"Okay, dad!"

Not long, Lisa heard the voice she was missing all this time. She held her tears from welling up.
