It seemed that Jennie had never given up on her and Hyunbin. Otherwise, she would not have obediently helped Hyunbin deliver the items to Ye-Jin.

Maybe this was the bond between them. No matter what, how could she ignore what was inside her?

Lisa's heart sank and his eyes darkened when he saw Ye-Jin's condition. "She's really silly, so... I hope... she can stop getting hurt. She's always been protecting something all these years, but who actually cared about her? Mother, you're a smart and strong woman. I believe I don't have to say the rest."

Lisa raised his head and looked into Ye-Jin's empty eyes that seemed to hold hope in them. "She told me she was envious of her lecturers abroad. They were a married couple and treated her very well. The two of them learned from each other and understood each other. She wished that for you and Father because you both live in each other's hearts, yet both of you are suffering from loneliness."

Lisa's words made Ye-Jin turned rigid and her pale lips trembled a little. She wanted to say something but nothing came out in the end.

Lisa did not continue. He decided to not bother her any longer when he saw her hesitant expression. "Love might not be as complicated as we think. It might just be an understanding or a generous thought. It depends on whether you can overcome the barrier within you. Possess what you like. Otherwise, you're the one that's going to be trapped, no one else."

The room became silent for a long while. Afterward, Lisa helped Ye-Jin lie down to rest before he left the room quietly.

"Master, is Teacher Son alright?" Haruto went up to Lisa as he left the room, appearing concerned.

Lisa glanced at him before sitting down on a bench. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "Things don't seem very well. We need to wait for the results of the doctors' discussion."

Haruto sighed, his tone heavy. "It feels like Teacher Son and Missus both have gone through many hardships in their lives. It's so rare for them to enjoy peaceful days. It's said that people should be forgiven, but those who are forgiven sometimes don't appreciate it, so it might not always be a good thing."

Haruto had been with Lisa for the past few days, so he had some idea about what was happening to Jennie. He shared his thoughts on recent events.

"Master, I just spoke to Ryujin. He said there seems to be an argument whereby Chaerin and Krystal started a conflict. If not for that, Teacher Son wouldn't have fought back. Ms. Naeyon tried to help Teacher Son, but Chaerin was trying to harm Ms. Naeyon, so Teacher Son shielded her. Unfortunately, she stepped on the slippery floor and bumped into Chaerin. After that, she fell down the staircase," Haruto explained the situation to Lisa.

Lisa's expression hardened. "How have things between Krystal and Kai been lately? I thought the situation got pretty strained with the Han family."

"Now that you mention it, I felt odd as well. Considering what they had done in the past, they wouldn't just not do anything when Kai is ignoring them. Some time ago, Chaerin's brother went to Mayor Kim and had a fight with him about not helping Krystal. I also heard that Kai handed Krystal a divorce contract, but I'm not sure what happened afterward."

Haruto frowned as he continued, "Now that Krystal isn't bothered by Kai's matter anymore, she's up to take over Yueying. She's been pretty busy working for Yueying lately as well. I feel that something isn't right. Are they trying to do something?"

"Master, Krystal really has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. Do we want to keep her monitored in secret?"

Lisa pinched between his eyebrows and took a pause. "Just keep an eye on her. I told you to investigate Chaerin in secret before. Gather the information and report to me tonight. Then, investigate what happened more than twenty years ago. Be quick about this and get me the results as soon as possible. Don't let Missus or anyone else know. Send it to me as soon as you get the results."

"Master, Chaerin and Mayor Kim, and Teacher Son..."

It happened so many years ago. Rumor had it that Mayor Kim betrayed Teacher Son and that was the reason their marriage fell apart. Soon after their divorce, Hyunbin married Chaerin.

Lisa had told Haruto to investigate Chaerin after he met Kim Jiyang last time. He must be trying to find out who she really was in order to get ahold of her weakness.

Lisa did not reply and just glanced at Haruto without saying anything after that.

"Master, what about Yueying then? Do we proceed as planned? After Krystal took over Yueying, she started to gather the power from both the Han Corporation and Kim Group."

"It's not time yet. We don't have a solid foundation. They wouldn't dare to try anything. After we've confirmed the development of Movie City, Glory World will have a real company in the showbiz industry. That's why Vice President Liu is working hard on that right now. Leave Yueying for now and just proceed as planned."

Haruto nodded. "Mmm, got it, Master!"

"By the way, Master, Elder CEO Son doesn't know about Teacher Son's condition right now. Teacher Son said not to tell Elder CEO and Missus so as not to worry them, but now, I'm afraid we can't hide it for long. Do you want to... let him know?"

Lisa could not help but start worrying.

How could he forget about Yong-Gun?

If he found out that Ye-Jin had lost her sight because of Chaerin and Krystal, he would despise Hyunbin even more. Back then when they had gathered at Maple Residence, he worked very hard to suppress his anger so that he would not cause a conflict with Hyunbin and Kim Jiyang, yet now...

After some time, he took a deep breath and said, "Let me tell him then. Just do the work I've told you to. Hire a smart private nurse."

"Yes, Master! I'll do it now!" Haruto then turned around and left.
