Lisa woke up. Thinking about what happened last night, he immediately turned his head at his side, hoping that the woman he loved was still sleeping soundly beside him.
But reality hurt. Jennie was not there.
Lisa sat on the bed while in daze. He never tried to search for her inside the house.
He knew she had already left. She left for good. She left because she hated him. She went away, leaving him all alone with an empty heart.
Lisa wanted to hurt himself. Thinking how he forced her, he wanted to punch his own face.
When Jennie acted like she was disgusted by his touch, he suddenly went crazy. He did not know why but when he was pushed back, when he was told that she hated being touched by him, he couldn't help himself but want to touch her more.
He wanted to make her swallow those words she spit. To prove that she was wrong, that she still craved for him. So, he forced her. He hurt her. He wounded her heart.
What he did last night was definitely cannot be forgiven. If he could just go back from the very start.
Even if he exhausted all of his resources.
Even if he becomes penniless.
Even if he sold his own soul.
As long as Jennie forgives him, he will do everything.
Lisa let his body fell back on the bed. He covered his eyes using his left arm.
"Jennie..."
He whispered.
-------
It has been two days since that nightmare. He almost went crazy trying to find her, flipping Beijing upside down.
Lisa was trying to find any clues that could lead to Jennie's current location, but she was very stubborn, hiding herself away from him.
She did not even try to go back and work. She vanished like an air.
Without giving him a second chance.
Without listening to his explanation.
He did not sleep nor eat during those two days she was missing. He never even paid attention to the company. All he cared about was to find Jennie at all cost. In these past two days, Lisa felt like he was a living dead, like a robot without a soul, alive but without emotions.
He didn't want to experience this heartache ever again, so he made a decision. If he found her, he would bind her and wouldn't let her run away from him. He would definitely lock her inside his own house so she could only be with him forever.
Even if he had to chain her, to break her wings, he would. Just to make sure that she would never leave him again.
He was sitting on Jennie's bed when Chen Hao called.
"Speak."
"Boss.. We still can't... We still can't find any information about Miss Kim's current location."
Lisa throw his phone. It flew towards the floor and went below the bed.
He was mad. He was angry at his subordinates for being incompetent. He was angry at Jennie for being stubborn, but most of all, he was angry at himself because he was such a bastard.
He was a scum, a jerk, for hurting Jennie.
Lisa calmed himself. He tried to look for his phone when he saw a tiny box underneath the bed. He also saw his phone intact, still connected to Chen Hao's call.
He got both items.
He once again put his phone on his ear. "Chen Hao, I will give you another day. If you can't still find her, you better write your resignation letter. I do not need incompetent people at my side."
"Y-Yes Boss." Chen Hao's voice quivered.
After the call, he sat back on the bed, carrying the small box. He observed the box and found out that it was not locked. He opened it and saw a tiny paper that was folded neatly. He unfolded it and saw a drawing. There were some words inscribed on the paper.
It said, "My Dream House. Jennie's Little Castle." It was dated 20 years ago. She was only 8 years old, but her drawing was a masterpiece.
The house was not very big. Just a two-story house. It was located on a hill, facing the sea. Although the strokes were rough, it was very detailed.
It could be said that for an eight-year old child to draw something like this, he or she could be considered a genius.
Lisa suddenly realized that Jennie was a genius architect even when she was a child, but for the sake of her grandfather and Kim International, she let go of her passion to draw and focused on managing their company.
Lisa closed the box. He called Jisoo.
"Hello?"
"It's me. I want you to gather the best architects available in our company."
"Why?"
"I will give them a project."
"What project? Why was I not informed about this? Is it related to the company's expansion?"
"No, it's personal."
"Oh. You want a new house?"
"Yes. I want a new house. My wife to be's dream house."
"Oh? Heh.. What a stupid woman. She fell for someone like you. "
"For a person who smiles like the sun, you sure are a cold bastard."
"....What are you taking abou--"
"Ahh.. You better watch your back. You might get married before I do. Shotgun wedding is still a wedding after all."
Lisa immediately cut their conversation.
He smirked while thinking of Jisoo's reaction. Only stupid girls would fall for his younger brother who was a devil incarnate. Lisa suddenly thought of Jennie's friend. That shameless girl, Rosé, would soon regret eyeing his younger brother.
All his life, Lisa never saw someone as shameless as Jennie's friend. Thinking of Jennie's friend, he immediately dialed Chen Hao's number.
"Find Rosé of Infinite Airlines' contact number and her current place."
-------
Rosé was sipping her favorite strawberry shake, not paying attention to someone who was staring daggers at her.
"So, Jennie is missing because of your idiocy? Aiyaa.. As her friend, why would I help you? Am I stupid? No. Shuu! Shuu! You better scram."
Rosé didn't want to face this man who hurt her friend. If she was not afraid of this bad gege, she would've scratched his face and drew graffiti on it.
"+01******965"
"Huh? Wha---!"
"Jisoo's personal phone number."
Rosé's eyes widened.
'Noo~ so fast! I did not remember everything!!'
"Tell me where Jennie is... and I will give you his number."
Rosé cried inwardly. 'Jennie~ forgive me... Bad gege bribed me.. I hope you won't get angry.. I'll make it up to you.. I promise.. I will make you my maid of honor when I marry Jisoo, okay?"
Rosé was praying to heavens that Jennie wouldn't get angry at her.
"I will tell you, but his personal number is not enough. His number and a date, take it or leave it!"
