THE GENIUS WIFE [JENLISA] (2)

CHAPTER 233

Jennie’s face was gloomy. She had barely sat down and she was targeted again? She has not even had a bite, not even a sip of water. At the very least, let her go to the toilet, right? Was there a need to be in such a hurry?

Randall had heard from Merlin that Jennie was mute. Just now when he spoke with Lisa, this beautiful girl didn’t say a single word either.

When he heard Merlin’s words, he knew that Merlin was just hostile towards Jennie. It was as if she was determined to embarrass this beautiful girl tonight. He frowned in dissatisfaction and whispered,

“Merlin, don’t go too far.”

He was clear with his words. After all, this girl was the wife of the internationally renowned Chairman Manoban, who’s not someone to be trifled with. Everyone would be in trouble if anything bad happened.

Mr. Max frowned too. He did not understand why his usually calm and intelligent daughter seemed to have lost her mind today. He asked the butler about these inexplicable actions. “When did Merlin become friends with this Jennie? Why haven’t I heard of it before?”

The butler was also confused. Despite the young miss living under his care, he knew nothing about this. He could only reply helplessly,

“Master Max, I don’t know either. I’ve never seen Miss Jennie before.”

Lisa glanced coldly at Merlin. This woman was too much; did she really want to start a war with the Manoban family? It’s disgusting. He turned and looked at Jennie gently.

“It’s okay if you don’t know how.”

When Jennie heard Lisa’s gentle, comforting voice, her heart softened. There was a smile on her face. She looked at him with pride and mouthed the words,

“If I just admit defeat, or if I don’t sing as well as Merlin, would you feel embarrassed? Would it make you lose face?” Lisa’s eyes flashed with kindness when he heard this. He dotingly stroked Jennie’s beautiful hair. What was this little fool thinking? She’s worried about these things at a time like this? He said softly,

“I don’t expect my wife to be superhuman. Moreover, it should be the man who protects the woman, not the other way around.”

Jennie was inexplicably moved and happy when she heard these words. Devil Manoban was not too bad. He knew that he had to protect her at a time like this. She smiled at Lisa and said plainly,

“If I sound terrible later, don’t think it’s unpleasant.”

Lisa smiled and tugged Jennie’s hair behind her ear. He gently stroked Jennie’s hair and looked at her trustingly as he said,

“Don’t worry. If anyone says that you sound terrible, I’ll make them cry. No one will think it’s unpleasant.”

Jennie was touched yet helpless when she heard this. Did Devil Manoban not know that it’s illegal to coerce someone? Wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing if he did that? While the two of them were talking, Merlin had started singing. This song was specially customized and was her hit, “Ignite.”.

“Ignite” was an energetic and passionate rock song. It became a hit as soon as it was released. The atmosphere became high when Merlin opened her mouth to sing along with the music. Everyone screamed and clapped along.

Merlin’s performance was over soon. The crowd did not seem to have had enough of the high. Merlin was not only a noble young miss, she was also a relatively famous local celebrity. She would not easily lose when it came to singing. Moreover, it was something that she had studied seriously.

Lisa frowned after listening to Merlin’s song. He did not expect Merlin to sing so well. He turned and looked at Jennie worriedly. Could this girl do it? He said softly to Jennie,

“If you don’t want to sing, I’ll go and tell them.”

Jennie shook her head. Although Merlin sang well, Jennie was confident. She would not admit defeat today. If she admitted defeat, it would be equivalent to telling Merlin that she was inferior to her. This was not going to happen. She replied softly,

“It’s okay, I can sing!”
