Jennie smiled. "Grandfather Lee, you can consider me as your granddaughter. I don't have a grandfather anyway."
"What happened to him?" Lee Jingyuan asked.
"Ever since I was born, I've never met my grandparents. My parents have also never mentioned them to me. I remember asking my father about them, but he always appeared very heartbroken at the mention of them. He said that he is an unfilial child and that he holds a lot of guilt towards them. He told me he once visited them secretly a few times, just from afar. However, his brother was afraid that he would snatch his inheritance and chased him away." Jennie shrugged. "I've also asked my adopted brother, Sehun, about this. He is also clueless about it. I'm an adult now, but I have no idea if my grandparents are still alive in this world."
This time, it was Lee Jingyuan who patted her hand comfortingly. "Little girl, don't be upset. I believe that no matter if your grandparents are alive or not, they would hope for you to be healthy and safe."
"En." Jennie appeared to have thought of something. "Grandfather Lee, I forgot to mention this but Somi knows hypnosis. Her ability works on anyone who doesn't have a strong will and she is able to command them to carry out her orders."
"There's such a thing?"
"En." Jennie nodded.
She frowned. "Although Somi is your granddaughter, her intentions are impure. A while ago, the elders from the Manoban family each gave me a red packet with a cheque for six million dollars as a greeting gift. Before I had the chance to open the red packets, Somi actually attempted to hypnotise me and tried to replace the red packets with her own red packets that only contained twenty dollars. Unfortunately, in the process of replacing the red packets, Kai reminded her in time and she quickly stopped her attempt. This matter was personally witnessed by the Manoban family's old butler, Mingde."
Lee Jingyuan responded. "I understand Mingde's character very well. He would definitely report this matter truthfully to Chongshan."
"It should have been that way." Jennie brought her phone out and showed him the video she had recorded. "Somi attempted to bribe Mingde but was unsuccessful. She then hypnotised him. In the end, Uncle De followed her instructions and reported to Elder Manoban that she was simply returning the red packets which I had dropped, out of good intentions. This is the process of her hypnosis."
After watching the video, Lee Jingyuan frowned heavily. "What a frightening skill! Are there any ways of overcoming it?"
Jennie deliberated over it. "Her hypnosis won't always work. I think that with your strong willpower, Somi will never be able to hypnotise you. Otherwise, she would already have entered the Lee Group and gained control of the company. Would there be a need for her to be this angry over ten percent of the company's shares?"
"That makes sense." Lee Jingyuan nodded.
"When she uses her ability, she needs the other party to look in the eye. If she does that to you, you can focus on thoughts and strengthen your willpower to reduce the likelihood of falling under her control. At times, perhaps pretending to have fallen under her control, would also be a good scheme to play?"
"Thank you for your reminder." Jingyuan asked in curiosity. "If you have recorded evidence of her hypnosis, why didn't you publicise it?"
"She stopped her crime midway. As long as she attempts to argue her way of this, the Manoban family won't be able to punish her much." Jennie did not wish for Somi to receive a soft punishment. What she desired was for Somi to pay with her life one day!
Jingyuan immediately understood. "Jennie, has there been a serious conflict between the two of you?"
Her miscarriage, loss of sight, paralysis...
