"Introduce yourselves." Kim Jisoo ordered, standing behind the couch where Jennie and Lisa perched.     

The bodyguards introduced themselves one after another and as they did, Jisoo walked over to the side of the couch.     

"Here are their papers, Madam," Jisoo politely said, handing over a folder to Jennie.     

Jennie blinked, snapping back to reality. She only glanced at her husband's assistant, receiving the folder in a daze.    

"Thanks," came out a muffled voice, glancing up at the bodyguards before them.     

When she opened the folder, the profiles of each bodyguard were in it. The documents were arranged in order, so Jennie could follow through with their documents as they introduced themselves.    

"My name is Bear Cruel..." Upon hearing the next bodyguard speak, Jennie froze.     

'Bear... Cruel?' she cast him a quick glance before checking his profile. The first thing she noticed was the man's name.     

'Seriously... haha.' she mentally chuckled in ridicule. 'Did he... did he change his name to this?'    

Bear monotonously recited his experiences while Jennie studied the papers.    

Unlike how she skimmed through the documents of other bodyguards, Jennie took her precious time to read the man's profile. Her face twitched the more she read about it. Almost everything in the information was true.    

Aside from his name, his age, his nationality, and his work experiences were all true. She knew this man from inside and out, and she was even aware of his other work experiences. Still, why did he choose to change his name?!    

The name Bear was an alias he got working for Jane's father. In the underground world, having aliases was no surprise. They would work with someone without knowing anything about that person. It wasn't that important, after all.     

Even so, it was a little surprising.    

Before Jane perished, she made sure all her people could start anew. She erased all the information about them, giving them the chance to start a new life with new names, identities, and such. It was their decision how they would live that second chance in life.     

'Cruel... did he really have to carry my family name?' she wondered with a sigh, raising her head as the last bodyguard finished his introductions.     

All of them were exceptional in their fields. She didn't read the rest of the information, but she kept her ears open as they made their introduction.     

"What do you think?" inquired Lisa, cocking his head back as he looked at his wife.     

"I'm impressed." She forced a smile, facing him squarely. "Lisa, a word?"    

Lisa arched a brow before casting Jisoo a look. The latter immediately got what that look meant, turning to the bodyguards.     

"Let's step out for a moment," said Jisoo to the newly hired marshals.     

The bodyguards didn't refute, nodding in understanding. And just like that, they left the mansion's lobby with Kim Jisoo. The moment all of them left, Jennie jumped to her husband's side.     

"Lisa, are you in danger?" she asked, narrowing her eyes suspiciously. "I mean, is there someone threatening you? Is it a business rival?"    

"What?"    

"Please be honest with me, Lisa." Determination flickered across her eyes, studying his face intensely. "Don't lie. Tell me. Are you in danger?"
