4 Days Ago
At the Verc so far, Lisa has been able to successfully single out those who are her family's supporters and those who are not.

With those who are not in support of her reign, she ruled with an iron-claw and leaves nothing to imagination or presumption.

Since her mother was still in a coma and Dr Shin's unfortunate and untimely assassination, Lisa had no other option than to use the Verc's resources to find out where that rat— Jung Jaewon was hiding.

Her memories could have been lost along with Dr Shin, but only Jaewon could tell her what really happened the day of Anna's death.

Mr Choi, CEO of TNet Telecommunications, one of South Korea's most used network provider for over 15 years, happened to be among Lisa's non-supporters.

But she needed his company to help her track down Jaewon since they had access to a satellite station. So, she did what her mother always does— resort to threats and blackmails.

"TNet Telecoms have been offered the opportunity to do something great and you're turning it down, Mr Choi?" Lisa asked straight faces.

"You don't care about anything but yourself. The reason you want my company isn't for any greater good, it's to satisfy your inflated ego." said Mr Choi.

"Well, isn't it just foolish to be aware of how inflated my ego is and yet you refuse me? Maybe I won't need TNet then, but if I don't need it, of what use is it going to be here anyway?" She threatened subtly.

And since its coming from a desperate new queen who was still asserting her dominance, those threats and blackmails were far from being empty.

She can easily make few phone calls now and get any company— whether they've been around for 15 or 20 years, come crashing to the ground.

"If I don't get results in less than a week, I'll turn your company into dust. Just call me bluff and see."

Mr Choi was also a scapegoat, to set fear and terror in the hearts of others who dares to undermine her reign by questioning or refusing to carry out her orders. After all they say that, 'the apple does not fall far from the tree', right?

So, without getting any result, one could say Lisa had become desperate and obsessed with finding Jaewon, and she wasn't planning on letting Mr Choi off the hook if she still doesn't get results.

Present Day

Taehyung
I sat outside Lisa's hospital room alone and less worried now.

The doctor had said that even though the injury wasn't life threatening, she still needed to be kept under observation for another six hours.

He also asked me to tell Jungkook when he returns to meet him briefly in his office. I'm certain he wants to talk about Lisa's mental condition with Jungkook.

Jisoo noona was too mad and angry at Lisa that she left immediately she heard what the doctor told us. And honestly I don't blame her, she doesn't want anything to do with me anyway and Lisa just insulted her and disregarded her sincere concern. So she had no reason to stick around.

I noticed the reporters left a few minutes later after Jungkook left the hospital. He must have succeeded in calling them off.

The worse case scenario would be if Lisa appears on the daily news tomorrow with the headlines 'BRC Inc's heiress and global business queen's daughter attempts suicide at the new home of the President of Jeon Corporation'. Being that nobody knows till date that they are both married.

The reason why she did it wasn't quite clear to either of us, but one thing was clear— that is our presence here seems to be a nuisance to her.

Her only family was lying in a coma right in this same hospital, so maybe she was feeling depressed. But why push everyone away? Why push me away?
