They had only gotten married not more than a day.

Moreover, he was only her husband in name.

Would he think she was troublesome if she called him for help?

But she was really angry.

She had never been described as a thief before.

If she couldn't give justice to herself today, she would really be angered to death!

"Why did you call me? Have you missed me?"

The man's deep, seductive voice passed into her ears as if he was right beside her, causing Jennie's heartbeat to suddenly whizz.

Her face suddenly turned red.

How was she to respond!

"Mr. Manoban..."

"Call my name, or call me hubby. I don't want to hear 'Mr. Manoban' anymore."

The man's tone was strong and domineering with no room for refusal.

Jennie went quiet.

Lisa: "I'm on my way. I'll be there in about 20 minutes. If you're hungry, you can order something to eat instead of waiting for me."

"Okay."

"Jennie?"

Lisa suddenly called her name.

"Yes?"

"Do you have anything to tell me?"

Jennie hesitated for a few seconds and asked softly, "I'm at Shengdong Department Store. I heard Uncle Li say that this mall is owned by Manoban Firm, is that so?"

Lisa simply acknowledged. "Yes."

"Then..."

Jennie: "I'm also the owner of this mall, right?"

After she said this, she felt her face burn.

Lisa seemed a little surprised that she would say such things.

After a few seconds of silence, he chuckled lowly.

"Of course."

"Then... If the boss thinks the employees are of poor quality and the work attitude is too bad, can they be fired?"

Jennie was a little hesitant.

She waited nervously.

She was afraid that Lisa would reject her.

Then she would feel too shameless and embarrassed.

After a few seconds of silence, the man spoke again, his tone suddenly cold.

He asked in a deep voice, "Have you been bullied?"

"I..."

Without waiting for Jennie to speak, he said more and more coldly, "You are the wife of President Manoban, so of course, you have such power. What is the point of leaving these kinds of employees?"

Jennie's eyes lit up.

"So, you agree?"

"Jennie, you are my woman. If anyone dares to make you feel wronged, tell me, and no matter who the other party is, I will seek justice for you."

"Remember, now that you are married to me, you can do whatever you want. I will take responsibility for everything."

The man's low and arrogant voice softly penetrated into her ear.

He had said, Jennie, now that you are married to me, you can do whatever you want. I will take responsibility for everything.

At this moment, a warm current flowed gently into her heart.

Throughout the years, she could only rely on herself and had forced herself to be independent and strong.

The person she could rely on had always been herself.

But now...

Suddenly someone told her that she could rely on him.

No matter what happened, he would take responsibility for her.

It didn't matter if he was sincere at this moment.

She was still grateful.

Her eyes were slightly moist as she took a deep breath and responded softly.

"... Okay."

..............

After Jennie spoke to Lisa, soon, the superiors came over.

She returned to the store again.

Krystal had picked out her clothes and Kai was helping to settle the bill at the checkout counter.

When Jennie walked into the store, a clerk saw her, immediately lowered his face, and then sneered sarcastically.

"Oh, haven't you already left? Why are you back again? Do you still want to steal things in our store?"

Another shop clerk also saw her and said bitterly, "Can you please not throw Ms. Kim's face by doing such lowly things? You're shameless, but what about her?"

"What happened?"

Krystal turned around, and when she saw Jennie, she became stunned.

"Ms. Kim, your thief sister is back again."

One of the shop assistants gave Jennie a dismissive look, and then called the other shop assistants.

"She must want to steal. Everyone, please pay more attention and don't let her steal anything."

Krystal stared at Jennie for a few seconds and frowned slightly.

"Sister,"

she said with an embarrassed expression, biting the corners of her lips and whispering, "Do you like the clothes in this shop? If you really like them, Kai and I can buy you one. You really don't have to..."

Having said that, she frowned again.

As if her next words were hard to say.

Several clerks, trying to flatter Krystal, praised her.

"Ms. Kim, you're too good to this thief sister. Why would you give her such expensive clothes?"

"Exactly. She doesn't even suit such expensive clothes. The clothes in our shop are only suitable for women like Ms. Kim."

"Ms. Kim is really kind. She got involved in your relationship with Mr. Kim and forced a couple like you to be separated for so many years. Ms. Kim, you don't have to treat such a shameless woman so well."

"Some people really don't know themselves and don't look at themselves. Can you compare to Ms. Kim?"

Jennie looked at the shop assistants who were praising Krystal to the skies and degrading her so viciously.

She sneered through the corners of her lips.
