Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 2

369.Let Me Remain By Your Side

Her attitude was open and her charisma was outstanding. Her graceful stance combined with a hint of heartbreak was unbelievably dazzling.

She said that becoming his fiancée was one of the greatest blessings in her life.

No matter whether she was speaking the truth, with those words alone, he was willing to sacrifice his life for her.

Lisa was deeply moved. He realised that his feelings towards Jennie were only growing stronger and deeper by the day...

The moment she stepped out of the cameras' view, he immediately stretched his arm out and held her shoulders protectively. He then took her to leave from there.

In the hospital ward next door, Krystal laid back on the bed. She had been waiting for Jennie to be ruined, but did not expect herself and her mother's reputation to worsen.

Shuhai's expression was heavy. He gritted his teeth in hatred. "Jennie, this whore. She really is an annoying cockroach who refuses to die!"

Krystal glared at him. "Didn't you and Mom say that you would obtain justice for me? Is this what you meant by giving me justice!"

Shuhai watched her with some heartache. "Krystal..."

Krystal's eyes reddened in anger. Her gaze expressed her extreme hatred. "I won't let Jennie off! I won't!"

...

In an apartment in the Hong Sheng District, Sehun sat before the television. His gaze was fixed on Jennie's crying figure.

His heart was aching for the suffering she had endured during all this time.

He hated himself for his powerlessness in the past three years. He had allowed her to suffer so much.

Now that he had the label of a criminal over his head, what more could he give her?

Sehun's heart was deeply tortured by the pain.

When the live-stream ended, he dearly wished to embrace Jennie's beautiful, heartbroken figure.

He really wished to comfort her and to say that 'with Brother here, there's nothing to be afraid of, Jenjen!'

But with the occasional movements of the cameras, he noticed that Lisa was also present there.

As of now, Jenjen probably did not need him...

Sehun picked up his phone several times to dial Jennie's number.

However, each time he dialled, he ended it before it would connect.

He stepped onto the balcony and took in the view of the bustling city at night. The neon lights made for a dazzling sight.

He could only remain in the apartment she had arranged for him.

He could only quietly wait for her and quietly miss her...

At the same time, Jackson carried out his orders and took the footage from the pinhole camera he had previously arranged in Lilan's hospital ward. He edited out all the clips that were beneficial to jennie and released them to the world.

The first was footage of Kim Lilan bribing Nurse Yang Fen.

The second was when Kim Lilan and Lee Shuhai talked about carrying out revenge on Krystal's behalf.

In an instant, Lilan, Shuhai and Krystal became the public's enemy.

Their schemes had failed and they were criticised for being vicious leeches. Everyone was after them.

...

Half an hour later, in the Yu Ting Vila.

Lisa sat down on the living room's couch and brought Jennie into his arms. His cold, heavy tone carried his heartache. "Jennie..."

"En?" She quietly laid in his broad and firm arms.

The sensation was warm and her heart was content.

Her obedience caused his heart to hurt further. "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."

His heart was still aching for the tears she had shed earlier.

"En." She nodded and shifted to lay down on his lap.

She then watched him and responded. "In the same way, no matter what happens to you, will you let me remain by your side as well?"

He did not agree. "No matter if it's me or the Manoban family, we will at times have to take certain risks. I can't allow you to be involved in it."
