Pick Up a Son, Get a Free Husband 9

Chapter 1762: That Person

That person that he had thought she loved, that he thought was a person that suited her more... In the end, it was himself.

There were so many flaws, so many hints...

Why did he only realize it now?

The man sat on a wooden chair nearby with his head down and he did not move at all. Jisoo did not disturb him and walked away to let him be alone for a while.

After some time, the man stared at the recorder pen blankly, then he took out his phone and made a phone call in his hoarse voice, "Hello, Jieun. Please help me prepare Jennie's signature. I'll get my assistant to get it from you later."

He then made another call. "Go to my office right now and get something for me. In the last desk... and..."

Jisoo watched the man make a few calls as he just sat there quietly.

...

Inside Jennie's room, the atmosphere was unbelievably heavy.

Even Zhuang Keer and Zhuang Rong had arrived. Zhuang Keer was sobbing by Jennie's bedside while Zhuang Rong looked really dismal.

Mother Manoban could not bring herself to look at the girl on the bed. "It's all the fault of us Manobans... We made this child suffer... Master Xuan Jing said she had a blissful life. She probably used it all up and exchanged it for Leo's life..."

Father Manoban knew that it was useless no matter what he said, so he just stood there in silence.

Zhuang Zongren sighed. This girl had yet to know that Leo was her real child, yet she was willing to sacrifice herself for him...

Zhuang Liaoyuan's expression darkened. "Since it has come to this state, it's futile no matter what we say. We don't care what will become of Jennie. We will take care of her forever."

He then looked at the elders. "You can see Jennie's condition for yourself. We get that you feel guilty, but it's alright now. Just forget about it."

In Jennie's condition, she probably would never wake up again, so what was the point of guilt-tripping the Manoban family and tying Lisa down to a person in a vegetative state forever?

It had just happened. While they might indeed be guilty of it, what could make a person stay forever?

As everyone was silent in their thoughts...

There was the sound of footsteps behind them.

Lisa and Jisoo had returned together. Behind them were Jieun and Lisa's special assistant, Cheng Feng.

For some reason, Lisa seemed kind of different than before...

Lisa went into the room and gazed at everyone. "Since everyone's here today, I'd like everyone to witness something for me."

Witness?

What was it?

Everyone exchanged looks with no idea what Lisa had in store.

Even Jisoo was not sure what he had prepared, but he could somewhat guess a little...

"Cheng Feng," Lisa called his assistant.

Cheng Feng quickly went up to him and took out a small, black, square box from his bag. He handed it over to Lisa carefully.

Everyone then gaped as Lisa went before Jennie's bedside with that little black velvet box.
