Jungkook’s already cold and distant countenance grew even colder, with a hint of frost in his eyes and furrowed brows.
Setting down his wine glass, he raised his icy gaze and directed it towards Cedric. “What are your thoughts?”
Cedric ventured to make a bold assumption. “I believe you might have some feelings for her, albeit small. Otherwise, why would you react so strongly and pour wine on her when Josef mentioned his involvement with her?”
Jungkook snorted dismissively. “She got involved with Josef immediately after our breakup. I couldn’t accept it in the moment, so I wanted to teach her a lesson. Does that imply I have feelings for her?”
As he spoke, the chill in his eyes dissipated, leaving behind only cold indifference. It seemed as though he no longer cared about the person he had just taught a lesson to.
Observing this, Cedric let out a small sigh of relief.
He understood that Jungkook had a fastidious nature and couldn’t tolerate his partner being casually involved with someone else. It was
a normal reaction.
Moreover, when Sophie returned to the country, Jungkook immediately broke up with Lisa. It shows that in his heart, Lisa’s position as a substitute wasn’t important.
Cedric didn’t say anything else, just drank the wine in his glass, stood up, and said, “Well, I’m going back first.”
Jungkook didn’t speak, but just nodded indifferently.
Cedric had been used to Jungkook’s indifference since he was a child and didn’t mind. He just picked up his coat and left.
It was raining heavily outside, and his assistant was holding an umbrella for him to get in the car. He instructed the assistant to drive downtown.
At a crossroads, while waiting for the traffic light to change, he spotted Lisa standing in the heavy rain, clad only in a dress, desperately attempting to hail a taxi.
Her delicate frame appeared vulnerable, and the rain–soaked fabric clung to her body. Her long hair was drenched and stuck to her face, giving her a slightly disheveled yet still beautiful appearance.
Cedric noticed that several taxis drove past her without stopping, unwilling to offer her a ride.
After a brief moment of hesitation, he instructed his assistant to drive over to her location.
Lisa shielded her face from the rain with her hand and faintly perceived a man approaching her, holding an umbrella.
As the umbrella covered her head, she stood there in astonishment, slowly raising her eyes to meet his gaze…
In a daze, it seemed like she had gone back five years…
She remembered that it was also raining heavily that day. She was standing outside a nightclub, begging passersby to buy her for one night.
Many men went in and out, touching her, teasing her, mocking her. None of them were willing to buy her.
However, a man wearing a black coat, emanating an air of pride and indifference, approached Lisa with a steady pace.
