Father Manoban knew he was in the wrong. He said in a lowered tone, "Brother Guan, it's inappropriate of the Manoban family to handle it this way, but it's not related to Lisa at all. It's my fault as a father. I'll bear all the consequences and am willing to make up..."
He was suddenly interrupted by his son behind him.
"Let me speak to Chairman Guan," Lisa said.
He hesitated, but he still passed the phone over to his son.
Lisa took the phone and addressed coldly, "Chairman Guan."
Guan Rui chuckled when he heard Lisa's voice and that distant title. "Lisa, what an obedient child. You're not even calling me 'Uncle' anymore?"
Lisa's expression did not change even when Guan Rui was ridiculing him. "Meet me at the guest room on the top floor of the Imperial Hospital. I'll give you a proper explanation there, Chairman Guan."
Guan Rui sneered, "How sincere of you! You're going to give me an explanation and you're not coming to me. Instead, you want this old man to visit you at the hospital! Sure, I'll go. I'll see what explanation the Manoban family is going to give me!"
Mother Manoban went over worriedly after the phone call ended. "Lisa, what are you going to do?"
Jisoo came out of the room and patted his mother's shoulders. "Mother, don't worry! You have two handsome and intelligent sons. Would you really have to worry? Just wait and see later!"
She pouted at him. "What do you mean wait and see? Don't mess around!"
"Since when did I mess around before!? Even if you don't trust me, have some faith in my brother! Both of you don't have to do anything. Just be there!" Jisoo said with certainty.
The elders looked at each other. They had no idea what the two of them had prepared.
However, they were relieved that Lisa was not overly depressed and had offered to handle matters.
...
Leo stayed right in the room with Jennie while Annie looked after them.
The elders, Lisa, and Jisoo were preparing for the meeting with the Guan family.
After half an hour, the Guan family arrived.
"Uncle, Aunty, Jisoo..." Diana greeted them one by one, then she looked hesitantly at the man she had not seen for some time. "Lisa..."
Mother Guan was upset by Lisa's cool reaction. "That's enough, Diana. So what if you treat him well? Someone got seduced by some woman outside and has no idea what he's doing now after being tricked!"
Mother Guan felt the vibe around the distant and cold man change suddenly. While it was not obvious, she could feel an unseen pressure surrounding her and suffocating her.
Mother Guan coughed lightly and changed her tone, "Lisa, take my word of advice. Aunty has lived much longer than you and has seen more than you, which is why I can see things from a clearer perspective. Look at that woman, and then look at Diana. Diana is our princess and there are no flaws in her personality and talents. She's pure and kind, and your parents have been known her since she was a child. They understand..."
Putting Mother Guan's comments about Jennie aside, the elders were really satisfied with Diana. At the moment, they could not hide the guilt on their faces.
