"What?!" A loud yelling resounded throughout the office.

Xiao Jingyao was shocked by Min-a's sudden yelling, which made him take two steps back. If Woobin did not hug Min-a in a timely manner, he had no doubt that this person might have rushed to him in the next second.

Jennie was shocked as well. However, she was not as agitated as Min-a. She was only surprised for a moment. Then, she immediately stared at Xiao Jingyao with a solemn expression.

Xiao Jingyao looked at Jennie's eyes, and he felt a little inexplicable panic. He cleared his throat and said, "The general manager's mother has been ill since she was hurt by her husband's adultery. At first, she only needed to rest for some time, but Ms. Solar had an improper thought at that time. She wanted to bribe the servant of the Kim family who was serving the general manager's mother and asked her to replace the medicine, which the general manager's mother should take with a drug that made people who took it become highly prone to hallucinations. This will make the general manager's mother's mental health slowly worsen.. Unfortunately, the servant she wanted to bribe was timid, and she did not dare to accept this task at all."

Min-a's expression was extremely dark. "If she failed to bribe the servant, then why..."

"When Ms. Solar found out that she could not bribe the servant, she was worried that the servant would inform Minister Kim. So, she decided to stick to her original plan and hired a group of desperadoes to the servant's house, threatening her and her family. If she refused to take this task or leak this matter out, they would kill their family."

"Gasp..." Min-a could not help but gasp when she heard about this.

On the other hand, Jennie sneered and laughed. "She used a hard tactic when the soft tactic failed."

"That woman... How could she be so vicious?" Min-a said, but she held Jennie's hand while feeling a little bit afraid, "I feel terrified when I remember that you lived under the same roof with her for such a long time. I really don't know how much you suffered at that time."

Seeing that Min-a was about to cry as she spoke, Jennie hurriedly comforted her and said, "All right, Mom, I'm all good now. This must be because my mother was protecting me in heaven, so don't be sad. My mother will not want to see you cry and become ill because of her in heaven."

Jennie's comfort made Min-a feel better. Jennie turned to look at Xiao Jingyao, and she continued the previous topic. "So, in desperation, the servant agreed to Song Ji-Hye's request and changed my mother's medicine?"

Xiao Jingyao nodded solemnly. "After the general manager's mother took the medicine, her condition plummeted. In just half a month, she was so weak that she couldn't even get out of the bed."

Now that Xiao Jingyao mentioned this, Min-a also remembered Jennie's mother's pale and weak appearance when she had visited her at that time. "At that time, we all thought that she was so hurt by her husband's adultery, so she couldn't get well for a while. I also said a lot of comforting words to make her feel happy, but I didn't expect... didn't expect that it turned out to be..."

"I suspect that in addition to the hallucinogenic drugs, the drugs that Ms. Solar asked the servant to change at that time should have been mixed with other things. Otherwise, the general manager's mother would not pass away in less than two months no matter how bad her mental health was."

The expressions of them instantly became more solemn. Jennie was silent for a moment. Then, she asked in a low voice, "That servant..."

"We have sent someone to find that servant. She has been highly remorseful and traumatized over what happened back then. Over the years, she has been living in guilt and sin, and it was difficult for her to forgive herself. After the incident, she and her family moved out of Shalnork. When she knew of the intention of finding her, she unreservedly told us all the things that happened back then, and she hoped that we would bring back a word to the general manager."

"What is that?"

"I'm sorry."

Jennie was silent. The person who should receive this apology was no longer here. Now, she could not accept it on behalf of the other party. After all, it was a life.

Even if the perpetrator was not her, and she had indeed been forced, some things could not be forgotten once it was done. It was not something that could be forgiven with just an apology.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly became a little weird. Even Min-a, who had been the most emotionally out of control before, calmed down at this moment. She looked at Jennie worriedly. "Jennie..."

As soon as Jennie looked up, she met the worried gazes of a few people. Even when she knew that they had misunderstood, she could not help but feel touched. She smiled and said, "I'm all right, but... Uncle Xiao, this matter has happened for so many years, why did you suddenly think of investigating it?"

"I guess you can say that it was a coincidence," Xiao Jingyao paused and said with a serious expression, "The desperadoes, whom Ms. Solar hired to hunt down the general manager this time, happened to be the same group of people whom Ms. Solar had hired to threaten the servant. After the group of people were caught by the Park family, they realized that they had offended a powerful person, so they confessed all the nasty things that Song Ji-Hye had asked them to do before. This was one of them. When I got the news, I asked people to follow this clue to thoroughly investigate the incident that happened back then. I didn't expect to find out so many things."

Jennie was silent again. She guessed that Song Ji-Hye did not expect to lose everything. She planned for a long time to kill Jennie, but her past was discovered by other people through the clues because of a momentary negligence.

"The Park family? Which Park family?" After sighing for a while, Jennie seemed to have discovered something. She looked at Xiao Jingyao with curiosity.

"The Park family... cough, cough. It's the family of Mrs. Manoban's mother. The current head of the Park family is Mrs. Manoban's eldest uncle."

"I see." After hearing Woobin's explanation, Jennie nodded in realization. Then, her expression became stiff and said with a bitter smile, "Since it is people from the Manoban Family, then... this matter..." 'Is known by Lisa as well?'

"In this case, the incident of Song Ji-Hye hiring killers..."

"The information and all kinds of criminal evidence were sent by President Manoban as well. We just passed them to the police."

Jennie was speechless. 'Well, should I sigh because someone's family is indeed awesome?'

"Jennie... What are you going to do about this matter?" Min-a glanced at Jennie and asked tentatively.

"What else can I do? Since the evidence is conclusive, letting her accept the legal sanctions is the best result." Otherwise, anyone who killed her would only dirty their hands.

"But before she is convicted, I want to see her."

"You want to see her?" Min-a and Woobin exchanged glances. She said anxiously, "I'll accompany you."

"No need. I can go by myself. Song Ji-Hye is now locked up. There are many people watching her, so she wouldn't dare to do anything to me. Besides..." She also had something to talk with her in private.
