Seeing this, Lisa said, "Since Nancy has made such a serious vow, let's not lock her up."
Jeon Chongshan was in the midst of hesitating. When he heard this, he nodded. "Alright then. In any case, Old Brushweiler will wake up within three to five days. When he wakes up, it will be clear whether or not Nancy tried to murder him."
His sharp gaze landed on Nancy. "I'll believe in you for the time being. Spend more time with Old Brushweiler. After all, he is your last living relative in this world."
"Thank you, Grandfather!" Nancy was deeply moved and immediately kowtowed towards him.
Jeon Chongshan's expression was heavy when he stated. "You should be thanking your cousin-in-law. She was the one who spoke up for you. I'm only listening to her intentions."
Nancy smiled gratefully towards Lisa. "Thank you, Cousin-in-law."
Although she said so on the surface, internally, she mocked Lisa for being useless trash. Lisa's soft heart would only give her the opportunity to send her into hell."
Lisa naturally understood that Nancy was planning something again. Locking her up would make it difficult for this brat to get up to her mischief.
Jingyuan would awaken within three to five days and Nancy definitely would not allow him to wake up. In other words, she would do something within this time period.
Hence, Lisa was ready to catch her in the act.
Jeon Chongshan stood outside the intensive care unit for a while. Soon, he left with Huang Zhishu.
Lisa took in the sight of Jingyuan lying on the hospital bed through the transparent glass. He had an oxygen mask on and was dressed in a patient's clothes. His wrinkled features were pale and he appeared especially thin. It seemed as though he would cease breathing anytime.
At the thought of how lonely Jingyuan could be, she found that he was truly quite pitiful.
Even his only granddaugher had attempted to murder him. Her actions could only be described as inhumane.
Nancy stood several metres away from Lisa. The anxiety in her expression was obvious. "Uu... I wonder when my grandfather will wake up. I hope he does so soon."
Her words made her appear to be an extremely filial granddaughter.
Lisa pursed her lips together and did not respond.
Mingyu, who had also stayed behind, spoke comfortingly. "Sister, don't worry. Director Brushweiler will be fine."
"En." Nancy nodded pitifully. Internally, however, she dearly wished that Jingyuan would quickly die. Immediately!
Mingyu's seemingly refined gaze shifted onto Lisa. His expression was filled with heartache. "Lisa, it's already midnight. You must be tired. I will guard outside Director Brushweiler's room. Go ahead and get some sleep."
"There's no need for you to be a busybody." Lisa was expressionless.
For some reason, she struggled to stop worrying for Jingyan. It wasn't just because she was grateful for the Brushweiler Group's stocks which he had given her.
She felt an unexplainable hint of heartache for him.
It was as though Jingyuan was her relative. She felt anxious and flustered as if she was on the verge of losing a family member.
"In that case, I'll accompany you." Mingyu smiled warmly and approached her.
Lisa immediately shouted to stop him. "Maintain a distance of five steps away from me."
"Why?" Mingyu was confused.
"Because your appearance is repulsive."
"..."
Mingyu could always rely on his face to coax a woman into giving him everything. When it came to Lisa, however, he keenly understood that Lisa's heart had changed and she no longer loved him!
He was angered, upset and even felt the urge to ruin her.
Unfortunately, he did not have that ability right now.
However...
He glanced at Nancy, who was seated on the bench.
Considering his sister's abilities, he was afraid Lisa would soon die without even realising it!
