"You!" Diana glared at her and was about to slap her.

Jennie looked at her coldly. Last time, Diana had almost threatened her with a fruit knife and it was because she had been caught off guard and the knife was already pressed against her stomach, she let Diana threaten her without a hitch.

Even after so many years, Jennie could still climb up to the fifth floor with two water potions in her hands. Diana's slender arms and slender legs were nothing to her.

Just as Diana's hand was about to land on her face, Jennie immediately dodged to the side and at the same time, she grabbed her arm with so much force.

Diana froze on the spot and a five-fingered mark could be seen on her cheek. Jennie flung her arm away harshly.

Right now, Diana was looking like she had been bullied. She stood there glaring at her, "Jennie!"

"You deserved that slap." Jennie stood up from the bed and slapped Diana's face again. "This slap is a retribution for my kidnapping caused by you and Nancy! You should know that my slap is already light!"

Diana's mouth quivered as she was completely overwhelmed by Jennie's aura. As she stood up, she couldn't help but take a step back with a trace of cowardice in her eyes.

"Diana, I can tell you this clearly. After all this time, I have been tolerating and giving in to you not because I'm afraid of you, nor am I afraid of grandpa, but because I pity you. I pity you, a little girl who has no relatives, living under someone else's roof. Every day, you are trying to find ways to get everyone's love, to squeeze Somi away, including the current me. Don't take my tolerance for you as your capital to continue to be shameless! Get out!"

Diana took a deep breath and gritted her teeth as she looked at her. She won't admit that Jennie's words had stabbed her heart. Her shoulders trembled as hatred filled her eyes.

Jennie, on the other hand, no longer looked at Diana. She had said what she wanted to say. She had never intended to tolerate any slanders and give way out to her. If Diana was really that brainless and wanted to cause trouble again, then she, Jennie, didn't mind going all out.

At this moment, someone lightly knocked on the door. Nanny Cheng walked over and saw that the door was open. She stood in front of the door and knocked while saying, "Young Madam, the Old Master wanted to see you."

After Nanny Cheng said this, she noticed that Diana was actually there. She couldn't help but be startled. "Miss Diana, why are you here as well?"

Diana's eyes immediately reddened as she turned around and ran to the door. With a wronged expression, she threw herself into Nanny Cheng's arms. "Nanny Cheng!"

"What's wrong with your face?"

"Nanny Cheng. You have seen me raised before your own eyes. Now, in this Family, I don't even have the status of a servant. Some people can hit me at will just because they don't want to hear the truth. She also took advantage of the fact that she carried grandpa's precious grandson to bully me. I don't dare to retaliate."

Diana tearfully complained of her grievance.

Nanny Cheng was stunned. She subconsciously patted Diana's shoulder to coax her, then looked at the calm expression on Jennie's face as she turned around. She had already made up her mind.

Nanny Cheng knew what Diana was like, and she could almost see what kind of personality Jennie had. Nanny Cheng secretly gave Jennie a comforting look, but at the same time, she was patting Diana on the side. It was obvious that she wanted to reduce the fuss and avoid the trouble.

Jennie nodded to Nanny Cheng as she was also aware of the situation. Since it was the first of the first month, she couldn't be bothered to cause too much trouble. She asked, "Grandpa called me?"

"Right, look at my memory, this disturbance almost made me forget it. The Kim Family suddenly visited and their arrival this time was a bit strange. Normally, the Kim Family would come to pay their respects after the fifth day of the new year, but now, they would suddenly rush over on the first day of the new year. And this time, Miss Nancy didn't come along with them." Nanny Cheng muttered to herself.

When Jennie heard that it was Jihoon and the rest who had come, she quickly wanted to refuse and didn't want to see them. However, the Old Man should have known that her relationship with the Kim Family was cold, so he would not call her so suddenly.

Jennie changed her clothes and tied her hair back. Only then did she notice the faint pink mark on her neck. She suddenly remembered Lisa's smiling and mischievous expression while staring at her neck in the morning.

She stopped for a moment, and her face turned red.

Jennie quickly went to find a high-necked goose-yellow sweater to put on and as she was pregnant, she only wore a pair of loose and comfortable jeans.

It wasn't until she went downstairs that she realized that most of the politicians who came to visit during the day had left.

When she walked into the living room, other than the Manoban Family, there was only Jihoon and  Lian.

Jihoon, who was initially sitting on the couch, suddenly stood up and looked towards her.

Jennie calmly glanced at him. There was no expression on her face.

Something was a bit amiss on Jihoon's expression.

"Jennie, come here." Although Old Man was smiling right now, Jennie could see that his eyes were brimming with ingenuity and experience. When he called out her name, the level of intimacy can all be seen by the people of the Kim Family.

Seeing that Old Man was so concerned about Jennie, the faint smile on Lian's face immediately became compulsive.

"Jennie, come sit here." Chitthip waved back and pulled Jennie to sit next to her.

"Mom, grandpa." Before sitting down, Jennie greeted everyone. When she saw Marco was also there, she directly called out, "Dad."

Of course, this "dad" had nothing to do with Jihoon. When she sat down, she looked at Jihoon, who sat down slowly in embarrassment. Her eyes were very calm as if she was just looking at someone that had nothing to do with her.

"Alright, now that Jennie is here, you guys can talk to her directly. However, I'm afraid you would not be able to meet with Lisa for the time being because he is having a temporary meeting this afternoon. However, since this matter is related to Jennie, it is not a problem for you to talk to her." Old Man said calmly with bright eyes.

"This ..." Jihoon forced a smile. He looked at Jennie and seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't. He could only sigh.

mLian was Chitthip's sister and the relationship between the Kim and Manoban Families had been sustained for so many years due to the relationship between these two sisters.

Lian was much more confident than Jihoon.

After a while, Lian smiled and turned to look at Chitthip. "Sis, is Lisa currently in Manoban Group? How long will he be busy today? If it's not trouble, ny husband and I will be waiting for him here."

Chitthip shook her head. "I'm not too sure. I don't think he'll be able to see you all for the time being."

Lian immediately frowned. She seemed dissatisfied with her sister's attitude, which did not help her at all. However, she did not dare to say anything. Lian just sat there and glanced at Jennie.

"The most important person is Jennie.Her decision is the same as Lisa's decision." The Old Man crossed his hands on his cane and said half-jokingly. "This matter still depends on whether Jennie is willing to let the past grudge go. If she doesn't want to let it go, then Lisa will definitely seek justice for his wife and children."

Jennie can tell there's something wrong with Old Man's words. Could it be that Jihoon and Lian's sudden arrival at the Residence was related to Nancy?
