Chapter 145 - She knew She's in Love with Mu Jungkook, She just missed the Chance to Tell It to Him. (1)

Inside the spacious nanny van, there were still two
extra seats behind Xu Lisa. Two of Mu Sehun's
underlings sat there. Both of them in black. Both of
them masked.

Under the threat posted by Mu Sehun's knife, Xu Lisa didn't do much in terms of struggling. The
two men tied up her arms and legs and even had her eyes covered up.

The car drove for about half an hour. Toward the
second half of their journey, the road became very
ruggedly and they bounced up and down over it.

They must have driven to some remote locations.

After they have arrived at their destination, the car
slowly came to a stop. Someone carried Xu Lisa
out of the car, walked over to a room with a pungent
smell, and tied her up on a chair.

The mask over her eyes was yanked off violently.

Xu Lisa looked around and it seemed like she was
placed in a storeroom that had once held seafood.

There weren't a lot of extra items around except for
a few large metal thermal boxes.

Standing not too far away from her, Mu Sehun had
been texting nonstop, most likely confirming with his
underlings as to their next steps. Xu Lisa couldn't
quite figure out what his next steps were going to be
but also worried that if he didn't start talking soon,
the more time went by, the more dangerous it would
be for Mu Jungkook. She wet her dried lips a little and be the first to break the silence. "Did you kidnap me because you had misplaced your trust in Qin Suho and went bankrupt and decided to take a page from Ms. Wang Lia's book and blackmail Mu Jungkook for a large amount? I am curious though. exactly how much are you going to ask for?"

Xu Lisa knew that Mu Sehun wasn't going to
engage with her initially. But she knew that Mu Sehun was a conceited person who always bragged
that he was smarter and better at scheming than his
brother. And that was why she purposefully made
him sound stupid. Sure enough, Mu Sehun took the
bait and couldn't help but turned toward her.

"My dear sister-in-law. You have so underestimated
me. Money is not necessarily what everyone in this
world want." Mu Sehun shoved his cellphone back
into his pocket and smiled in contempt. Walking over
to her, he said, "I've heard that my brother never
wanted to marry that Liang Yeri, which was why
he hired you to play your role with him. I heard he
offered $50 million straight up. Was that true?"

Xu Lisa raised her brows. "You heard right."

"Oh yes." Mu Sehun straightened up his back. "even
though you had been scheming this whole time, had
the old lady on your side, and finally able to marry
into a prestigious family, but... that is not what I am
after. Back in my days, I almost got into Wharton. If I wanted to start over again, I don't need Mu Jungkook's money. nor do I care for his money."

Hearing that, Xu Lisa stuck her tongue out quickly.

"Almost means you didn't. You think just anyone
can get into Wharton? What you were lacking was
probably the same as how you've misjudged so much and placed your trust in the poor man Qin Suho. The distance between you and Wharton was probably the same as the distance between you and Mu Jungkook. You might think you had just missed it by a smudge when, in reality, you were way off."

Mu Sehun was immediately enraged. He walked up
and grabbed Xu Lisa by her collar. "Xu Lisa,
what exactly did Mu Jungkook offered up to you? Why would you stand by him so for just $50 million? I have offered you a lot of money back in the days as well. Why wouldn't you come over to my side?"
