"After I received the trophy that day, I wanted to do this even then. I wanted to rush to your side and give this to the person I loved the most but so many things have happened. It's only today that I can finally give this to you!" Jennie's tone sounded pitiful.
"It's okay." Lisa gently patted the girl's head. "Thank you. I really like it."
Lisa knew that the way the girl had gazed at him at that time was so obvious that the people around him had almost found out.
Jennie got closer to him as she just wanted to stay near him for a little while more when her phone rang. It was Jungha.
"Hello, Jung? Did something happen?" Jennie asked worriedly.
Jungha quickly replied, "Nothing much actually. Just that that woman is shameless enough to call us and ask Mother and Grandmother to tell the press that you asked them to do what they did. She's asking us to lie!
"You know how my mother is. She'll do anything whenever that woman shows any sign of distress. Grandmother was alright, but when she heard that woman was willing to give us money to send me overseas to study, she wavered..."
Jennie quietly listened to Jungha. The people who were spying on the Tangs did not mention this or Krystal leaving the entertainment industry.
"Then? How did you settle it?" Jennie asked.
"How do you know I settled it?" Jungha asked.
"Besides my brother, who else could?" Jennie teased.
Jungha replied cheekily, "I didn't do much actually. I tied a rope to the beam of the house, then I told the three of them that I'll hang myself here if anyone agrees to her conditions!"
Jennie found it really funny. It was simple and straightforward, but effective.
Besides, she felt really touched. "Thank you, Jung."
After she hung up, her phone rang again.
Jennie was just starting the car engine, so she told Lisa, "Hon, help me pick it up."
Lisa saw the name "Kai" on the screen. After two seconds, he picked up the call.
Lisa did not say anything and the person on the other end was silent as well.
After several seconds, a man's voice came through the phone. Kai sounded like he had drank a lot. "Jenjen, I'm sorry... I'm really sorry... I know... I don't deserve your forgiveness... But... We... Is it still possible for us?"
The atmosphere in the car turned cold when he said that.
"She's not available at the moment."
Kai sounded more clear-headed when he heard a man's voice answering Jennie's phone. He said with a stern tone, "Who are you? Why do you have Jennie's phone?"
Lisa did not say anything but his expression turned colder.
Jennie had just driven out of the garage when she heard the somewhat familiar voice of a man from the phone. He had even asked who Lisa was, so she asked, "Who's on the phone?"
Before Lisa could answer, Jennie glanced over and saw Kai's name.
Jennie's expression darkened.
It was this guy...
Jennie then tilted her head to Lisa's direction before she spoke into the phone, "He's my man. Do you have an issue with that?"
