Lisa was quiet, his eyes indicating his concern when he looked at Hyunbin.
Hyunbin's expression darkened as he sighed, "That's how your mother is. I'm used to it already, but I owe the two of them so much that I don't know how I can ever make amends."
"What is Father planning to do? Mother is going to be discharged in a few days. With her current condition..."
Lisa's question put Hyunbin on the spot!
What now?
What could he do?
Ye-Jin would surely head back to the Son Residence after she was discharged. What about him?
Could he still go back now?
With all the messy relationships around him now, how could he protect her? What was the "forever" he talked about!?
Was he making empty promises again?
Hyunbin clenched his fists as his eyes started to water.
"Since things have come down to this, I suppose you aren't afraid to lose anything else, are you? You should pursue what feels the most important to you. You might lose it the next moment."
Lisa looked at him calmly and said, "I know that you're afraid to lose. You're afraid that Mother will reject you, so you're hesitant. I don't want to add anything on. I just want to let you know that Jennie and I will always treat you as our father. Be it for you or Mother, we'll always be here."
Hyunbin was stunned and he stared at Lisa in shock. After a while, he mumbled, "What you just said... Did Jennie tell you that she's willing to forgive me?"
Lisa smiled as he looked down at Hyunbin's bandaged hand. "I think that she never really blamed you. What she always longed for is the love and care from you both. She can even forgive someone like Krystal, so why can't she forgive the man who gave life to her?"
Hope sparked in his eyes as he spoke and he looked at Hyunbin genuinely. "Father, I hope you can make up for the lack of paternal love in the past twenty years. I beg you to be fair to her, to be fair to Mother, and to be fair to yourself. At your age, you should really fight for what you really want."
A bitter taste rushed towards Hyunbin's throat as he felt a pain in his chest and he could not keep a calm expression like earlier anymore. His expression seemed a little cold and lonely.
"Father, be strong. Jennie and I will help you however we can. It might be a rough path but as long as you don't give up, I'm sure things will work out!"
As Lisa saw the wavering in Hyunbin's eyes, he took a deep breath and handed him the stuff in his hands. "I think you'll really appreciate these right now."
Hyunbin glanced at Lisa before taking it from him. He opened it and flipped through the documents inside.
Suddenly, his expression turned from being cold and lonely to becoming unbelievably surprised!
He looked at Lisa in bewilderment. "These... These... How did you get them?"
He was aware that Chaerin was cheating on him, so he tried to find out more but there was no result.
He never touched her ever since that night. Instead, he put all his focus onto his political career. Moreover, he did not find any woman more attractive than Ye-Jin. He felt that he could only be deemed a complete man when he was with Ye-Jin.
That was also why he missed and loved her even until now.
Throughout his political career, many women tried to lay him honey traps, but no matter how seductive they were, he just could not forget about Ye-Jin.
He then realized that he lost himself to her when he signed his name on the divorce contract. He had always been there, so how could he not go back to her to look for himself?
"I just happened to find out. It must be God's will." Lisa smiled.
He had asked Haruto to investigate Chaerin but had only gotten some trivial information. They would probably have missed this piece of important information if Ryujin and Ah Bao had not been alert enough!
Haruto had mentioned before that lonely people were prone to making mistakes. Not everyone could go through the loneliness. At least, Chaerin did not feel like she could. Ye-Jin and Hyunbin were each other's first love, so...
Lisa thought Haruto was just talking nonsense, yet now...
"With these, you can start your negotiations with Chaerin. I know you're being pressured by the Yue family. I will..."
"It's alright, Lisa. Thank you! I think these are enough! I've handed in my resignation letter. Now that I've spent half of my life in the political field, it's enough. I just want to spend the rest of my time with the two of them."
Hyunbin smiled, seeming much more relaxed now. "Don't tell them about this and wait until I'm done settling everything. I'll head back for now. Please take care of your mother!"
Hyunbin kept the documents and went into his car, driving away swiftly.
Lisa was caught off-guard.
Resigned?
He should be at the peak of his career now. Furthermore, his achievements were great and many people loved him. If he stayed for another year or two, he would rise even higher!
Even Marco was impressed.
Did he not care now?
Hyunbin's words shocked Lisa. He never expected such action from him!
However, things might be better like this. If Hyunbin could take care of Ye-Jin personally under such circumstances, maybe they could go back to how they were!
Lisa was starting to look forward to it.
In contrast to the peace on Lisa's end, a storm was brewing in Ye-Jin's room!
"How dare they!? How dare they!? Do they think us Son family can be easily bullied? Ridiculous!"
Lisa heard Yong Gun's furious voice roaring from inside as he arrived at the door.
