The CEO's Incredible Heiress

Chapter 25: Little Stone Was a Stepping Stone

It did not matter if Nancy enjoyed greater success for now. It would hurt more if she fell from a greater height, right?

Jennie smiled. “Shall I send it to you now?”

“Nope. Why don’t you print a copy for me tonight? Also, I can take the opportunity to help you ask Kai out,” said Nancy hurriedly.

No matter how Jennie sent Nancy the music, it would leave evidence behind that might prove detrimental to Nancy in the future, so she always insisted on Jane giving hard copies.

“Okay,” agreed Jennie.

Nancy felt delighted inside when she saw Jennie’s eagerness to see Kai.

Jennie would keep writing songs for her and become her stepping stone as long as she could bait her with Kai.

Little Stone was the perfect name. Was she not asking to get stepped on by Nancy?

At night, at the well-concealed backstage of the program.

Kai was here early.

Nancy had told him that Jennie was coming over to apologize for shaming him by performing “Get Lost”.

Kai’s fans were all angry with Little Stone and scolding her nonstop. Kai’s competition picked up on this and kept mocking him, so Kai felt embarrassed.

Kai made time from his busy schedule when he learned that Jennie wanted to apologize to him. Even though he had completely broken up with Jennie, he could not allow her to trample on his dignity.

His agent had already set up a hidden camera to record Jennie’s apology. After they had the recording, they would pose as paparazzi and spill it online to prove that Jennie was still Kai’s diehard fan.

It certainly did not dawn on Kai that Jennie would truly sever ties with him.

Ever since Krystal had returned to the Kim family and gradually won Kai’s heart, Jennie never stopped doing her utmost to win him back.

Jennie was at the Repulse Bay Villa, drinking juice while enjoying the air conditioning and waiting for Lisa to come home.

Lisa’s tall silhouette finally appeared in the villa.

His tall form was dressed in a custom-made suit that fitted his perfect lines flawlessly to accentuate his broad shoulders, thin waist, and straight long legs.

The fabric on his legs would tighten slightly to show off the strong muscles under it when he walked.

Seulgi followed closely behind him.

After entering the door, Lisa’s body stiffened, and he instantly halted when he caught sight of the couch.

Jennie was dressed in comfy homewear sitting on the couch barefooted with her slippers off as she hugged a pillow. She was smiling with satisfaction after having some delicious juice.

The motion from her long legs and her cute pink toes left Lisa’s heart racing and sent ripples through his mind.

Although there was no expression on his face and his eyes were filled with restraint, his breathing had quickened.

He turned to walk out.

Seulgi was stunned as he followed behind Lisa.

Jennie saw Lisa as well. However, he left without coming over. The juice nearly slipped from her hand. What was going on?

Lisa inhaled deeply at the door before he turned to enter.

Just as Seulgi was about to follow behind him, he stopped Seulgi. “You may go.”

“Mr. Manoban, didn’t you say you had work to do?”

Lisa: [The only thing I want to do is you.]
