The Witch CEO is NOT a Demoness[Jenlisa]

(120) End Of His Promise

"You are back?"

Jennie smiled at Lisa as he walked towards the bed and sat on it.

She sat up and touched his face.

"What's wrong?"

Jennie slowly traced his eyes with her fingers.

Looking at his haggard but handsome face, Jennie felt vexed.

It was all her fault. It seemed like her luck was very bad. Every now and then, she would get into different accidents, making Lisa worry for her.

Thinking of her husband who was always doing his best to protect her, Jennie felt her heart beat erratically.

To have a man like him who loved her more than he loved himself, Jennie realized that maybe her luck was already used up after she found him. She must have exhausted all her luck to have someone like him.

When Jennie realized her own silliness, she could not help but laugh. Her fingers were still stroking his face.

She did not see the fire burning inside Lisa's eyes.

The news he wanted to tell her were drowned in his throat. His eyes shook as he felt the electricity in Jennie's touches.

Lisa wanted to pounce at Jennie and posses her but thinking of what she went through, he decided to extinguish the fire inside him.

She needed rest.

Plenty of rest.

Lisa shook his head and grabbed her hand. He pulled her in his embrace and inhaled her scent. After a few seconds, he was able to calm himself thanks to her smell.

"Jennie."

"Mmm?"

"Jennie.."

"*laughs* Mmm?"

"Jennie..."

Jennie raised her head and stole a kiss from his lips.

"Tell me. I can handle it."

Jennie knew he wanted to tell her something which was related to Suzy. The call a few minutes ago must be from Chen Hao.

"Lisa kissed her passionately but when he felt his body was starting to react, he immediately released her lips.

"It's about Suzy."

Jennie nodded.

"Was it Chen Hao who informed you?"

Lisa nodded his head and started to caress her hair.

"Chen Hao was able to locate Suzy and chased her.

When he almost overtook Suzy's car, she committed suicide by driving her car towards the cliff. It exploded and fell into the sea.

Chen Hao was currently trying to salvage the car and her corpse."

Jennie froze when she heard his words.

'Suicide? Impossible!! A woman like Suzy will never resort in committing suicide and abandon the person they love. Unless Lisa died, Suzy will never kill herself.'

Lisa knew what she was thinking. Suzy will never kill herself.

It must be her scheme to let them relax and lift their guard against her.

"I know. We will know the truth once we see Suzy's corpse. Don't worry. I will not let you suffer again. Even if I die, I will definitely save you. Next time, I will move faster that your brother Mino."

Jennie smiled when she heard his words full of vinegar.

"Don't worry. I will wait for you to save me."

Jennie hugged Lisa and snuggled herself in his embrace.

The couple hugged each other while saying sweet nothings.

Even just for a while, they felt blissful while in each other's arms.

Old Man Manoban was sipping his tea when his assistant informed him about the recent news that came from Chen Hao.

*baam!*

"What did you say?! Suzy was also in cahoots with the im Branch Family?!"

Old Man Manoban who was reclining on the bed felt like his heart contorted.

"Old Chairman!"

The assistant immediately panicked. Old Chairman Manoban just got better from shock. The assistant wanted to slap his own mouth.

Old Chairman already said that no matter how insignificant the information was, he must be informed.

The assistant could only grit his teeth and tell him everything even though he wanted to hide it from Old Chairman Manoban.

When the assistant finished his report, he prayed that Old Chairman Manoban would not over exert himself and avoid riling up his emotions to avoid a heart attack.

Fortunately, the Old Man was able to control himself. Although he was fuming mad, his heartbeat was steady.

Old Man Manoban's current countenance was very ugly.

He liked Suzy. Suzy was the granddaughter of his best friend.

His best friend was not from any aristocratic family but he treated his best friend as his closest kin. When he died, he promised upon his coffin that he would take good care of his favorite granddaughter.

Suzy basically grew up like his own granddaughter. He did not have any granddaughter and he treated Suzy as one.

When Suzy was young, she saved Jisoo once. It intensified his desire to make her his official granddaughter. He even planned to marry her to Jisoo a few years ago before he met Rosé.

Unfortunately, his plan was unsuccessful. He never thought that Suzy refused Jisoo because she liked Lisa.

Old Man Manoban felt cheated.

He could not believe that Suzy would be as savage as that. Due to her jealousy, she tried to harm Jennie and her unborn child.

Thinking about the involvement of Suzy to Jennie's accidents, Old Man Manoban felt the burning sensation inside his heart. He raised a demon.

'Xiao Di[1], I'm sorry... My promise to you ends here. I could no longer protect your granddaughter.

A woman like Suzy must be captured and placed in the mental hospital.

Xiao Di, I am sorry. I will personally ask forgiveness to you once I see you in heaven.'

Old Man Manoban was still feeling sad of Suzy's action when his assistant once again entered his room to inform him about the latest news.

"Old.. Old Chairman Manoban... Miss.. Miss Suzy... Miss Suzy is dead!!"

"WHAT?!"

Old Man Manoban did not know what to feel anymore.

He was once again shocked to his core.

He just learned that Suzy tried to kill his granddaughter in law and great grandchild, making him flare with anger but now, his assistant informed him that she was already dead, making him sad.

'What the---! Can you please be lenient with an old man like me?!'
