Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 4

760.I Believe In You

Jennie turned to look at him firmly. She did not wish for any misunderstandings to crop up between the two of them. "Lisa, I can explain why I only informed you of this matter a minute before it happened." She frowned. "According to my prediction, this was only supposed to happen three months later. I was worried that I would cause too many changes by telling you early. I was also... not very certain if this event would actually take place."

Based on her memories, she was supposed to have suffered a miscarriage by now, and would have become unable to conceive.

Ever since her rebirth, she had yet to become pregnant though the medical check-ups indicated that she did not have any problems in this area.

The trajectory of their lives had changed.

Lisa embraced her and pressed a kiss against her head lovingly. "I believe in you."

Jennie pressed her face against his chest.

He gently patted her back and spoke somewhat stiffly. "You already knew that Somi had the ability to hypnotise others?"

"En." She nodded.

"You told Mark about it." But you didn't tell me.

She easily resolved this matter with one sentence. "That's because I knew Mark would tell you."

"That's true." He did not suspect this.

She closed her eyes in discomfort.

In fact, a while ago, she had told Lee Jingyuan about Somi's ability without telling him.

This was because Somi once hypnotised her in their previous lives to force her into killing Lisa.

In the end, Lisa suffered a gunshot to his abdomen and was seriously injured.

It was only when her hands were stained with his blood that she realised she had shot him.

The Manoban family had rushed over to witness the scene of her harming him.

She had hoarsely muttered. "I didn't want to do this..."

Before he fell unconscious, he had instructed them that they were not allowed to kill her.

How could the Manoban family possibly forgive her? Thus, in the period he was unconscious, she was heavily beaten up by the Manoban family's servants.

Chongshan as well as Lisa's parents both hated her thoroughly and silently ignored the servants' behaviour.

She could sense that though Lisa loved her in their previous lifetime, he did not love her as much as he did right now.

Of course, that was not his fault. She also wished she could strangle herself to death at the thought of the vicious acts she had committed.

After Lisa slowly recovered from his injury, he punished all the servants who hurt her with death. He did not mention this incident again.

However, with that incident, the trust between Lisa and her disappeared.

In their previous life, she always claimed she hated him and wanted to stay clear of him. Thus, he misunderstood that she had actually been after his life.

However, that life was different from this one.

Right now, she was dearly loved by the Manoban family's elders and was slowly building trust between Lisa and herself.

Although she had the confidence that Somi's hypnosis would not work on her, there was still a small possibility that similar events would re-occur...

She wondered if Lisa or the Manoban family's elders would react the same way they did in their previous lifetimes?

This was a matter that always troubled her.

Thus, she did not inform any of the Manoban family members that Somi was capable of hypnosis.

Additionally, for the Manoban family, Somi was after all their adopted daughter. Although they always seemed cold to her, she had lived with them for over twenty years.

Humans were complicated creatures. In fact, Somi was already receiving a certain level of protection from them.

For example...

Previously, all the fishes in the Manoban family's lake had died. The dogs also barked for no good reason in the middle of the night. With the Manoban family's intelligence, how could they possibly believe this was a result of bad luck?

But if the Manoban family was unwilling to pursue the matter, there was nothing she could do about it.
