Jennie bit her lips and asked softly, "Have you found Wei?"

"We've found him. Besides, I've sent people to control him from the shadows. Any actions he takes will be informed to me right away."

Lisa closed the files in his hand and gently pulled Jennie into his embrace.He gently patted her head. "Don't be afraid, I won't let you get hurt again. Wei and the mastermind behind him will be caught. I am just waiting for them to enter the net. Wei is my bait. He won't be a threat to you anymore."

"You mean the person behind him isn't as simple as Nancy?" Jennie was surprised.

"Nancy and Wei are only in a cooperative relationship, and she cannot interfere with his actions. Behind Wei's actions, there is still a bigger conspiracy. However, it is not a big threat. Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to you again." Seeing the worry in her eyes, Lisa embraced her tightly, and his tone was filled with comfort and love.

"Go back to my room and relax. We'll leave at noon." Although not many people pass by in the corridor, Jennie was still very shy. She quickly opened her mouth to ask Lisa to put her down, but when she saw how serious his expression was, it was as if he feared her leg injury would worsen, she couldn't say a word.

The care and tenderness in his eyes were very obvious. Jennie could only awkwardly not look at the two staff members who passed by and let him carry her back to their room.

After a moment, Lisa left the room as he had something to take care of. Jennie could only sit outside the window and watch the bright and sunny weather while waiting for him. She picked up a pear from the fruit bowl and began to nibble on it.

As she ate, she suddenly thought of what Uncle Huang had said last night.

At the same time, someone knocked on the door. It was a female staff member and the doctor from yesterday. The doctor came in and respectfully said, "Miss Kim, President Manoban asked me to come and check your ankle."

Jennie nodded and limped over to the bed.

"The swelling has not completely disappeared. You need to continue pressing it with ice bags." After the doctor checked her feet, he said carefully, "The swelling was very severe last night, and it has disappeared so much. You recover quickly. You need to keep pressing it with an ice bag for another two or three hours, take some medicine, and continue to rest. Your ankle will recover after a week. But you must remember to be careful when walking and not get any more sprain."

"Thank you." Jennie took the ice bag and thanked the doctor. She looked up to see the female staff member change two plates of fresh fruit that looked like they had just been taken out of the freezer, then said softly, "Can I ask where the person in charge of your farm, Uncle Huang?"

The staff member was startled and turned to look at her. "Miss Kim is looking for Uncle Huang? He should be in the orchard now. It's not convenient for you to go there right now. I'll go call Uncle Huang for you."

"That's troublesome." Jennie chuckled.

"It's alright, Uncle Huang likes to walk around. He always says it's good for the body." The staff smiled and turned to leave.

After the doctor had left, Jennie thought of what Uncle Huang had said last night. He said that he had met that girl in G City. She was 99% sure that the girl he was talking about was her mother, Zhou Chaerin.

After a while, the staff came back and said apologetically, "Miss Kim, I'm very sorry. Uncle Huang is not at the orchard today. I just asked around and found out that today is the day Uncle Huang went out to purchase seedlings. He will be back in three or four days."

There was a tinge of disappointment in Jennie's eyes, but she smiled at the staff. "It's alright. I'm sorry for troubling you."

Since Jackson already knew Jennie's identity, he couldn't wait for her. After eating breakfast, he immediately went back to the company with Mei.

Since there's nothing she could do right now, Jennie decided to sleep. She was sleeping until noon. When she woke up, she saw Lisa helping her put new ice bags on her feet. Jennie was a light sleeper, she can get easily awake.

"You're awake? Are you still sleepy? Go back to sleep. It's fine for us to leave at night." Seeing that the swelling on her feet had subsided, Lisa picked up the ointment the doctor had brought and dabbed it on her swollen ankle.

Jennie got up, "I'm not going to sleep anymore. My pregnancy symptoms have decreased a little, but I can still feel nauseous and can't sleep well. I estimate that I will have this kind of reaction up to 5 or 6 months. Let's go home first. I can continue sleeping in the car."

As she said that, her hand was trying to take the ointment. "I'll do it myself."

Lisa held her hand and did not let go. He continued to dab the ointment on her patiently. A kind of cold and comfortable feeling seeped into her skin.Jennie decided to let him do what he wanted and just sat there, watching him.

"Grandpa should be mad at me." She said suddenly.

Lisa's hands did not stop and without even raising his eyes, he said lightly, "Why should he be mad at you?"

"I have beaten his grandson in front of him, in fact, I have even caused the Manoban Family to lose face." Her face darkened.

Lisa just glanced at her. "The Old Man missed you."

Jennie paused, looking at him in disbelief.

Lisa took a simple medical bandage and lightly wrapped it around her ankle twice. After wrapping it up, he wiped the oily medicine off his hand and laughed lightly. "In that case, even if you wanted to shoot me with a gun, the Old Man would not stop you. Instead, he would personally hand you a gun."

"Huh?" Jennie looked at him in surprise. "Are you kidding me?"

Lisa smiled but didn't say anything. He picked up a coat and draped it over her shoulders. "Put it on. We're going to leave now."

Afterward, Jennie finally had the heart to admire the beautiful scenery around Aerial Club after getting on the familiar black Land Rover. When they finally left the place, Lisa first stopped at the Manoban's Division in F City.

He got off the car to take care of some matters. After about ten minutes, he returned and drove her back to the nearby district. When they stopped at the residential complex entrance, Jennie unbuckled her seatbelt and looked at him. "How come you know I live here? Was it you that night?"

She thought of that night when V had rejected someone at the door. At that time, he told her it was a delivery man. Then Jennie recalled the moment Lisa thought she had aborted their child. She remembered the black Land Rover was here all night.

Lisa didn't answer her question. He was just smiling at her. Jennie's heart immediately felt a burst of warmth.

The moment they got off the car and walked to the unit door, Jennie saw Nayeon holding V's arm and shouting something.

The impatience in V's eyes froze when he saw her and Lisa.

"Aiya, V, you intentionally pissed me off. I just went to Jennie's company to find her, and she's obviously not there. She must be resting at home, so why didn't you let me go inside to find her?!" Nayeon was tugging at his arm, shouting non-stop.

When she turned around and saw Jennie, she was stunned for a moment before looking at the tall handsome man beside her. Then, she was stunned once again as she looked at the handsome man, then at V's face, then back at the handsome man, then back at V's face again.

"Hey, V, don't tell me you and Jennie have another long-lost brother?"
