There's no need. They will find you if they need anything. For now, I am not sure whether the opponent's target is you or not, and even if you are, maybe the opponent has seized Lisa's weakness. Jennie, you are Lisa's biggest weakness right now."

Actually, everyone knew how much the Old Man cared for his grandson. No one spoke for a while, and they all fell silent when they saw the Old Man's pained expression.

Jennie was actually thinking of someone, but she was not sure. At a time like this, she can't cause problems, so she didn't talk much. Suddenly, she saw Diana standing in front of the door.

She immediately became suspicious. However, seeing Diana's worried expression as she looked at Lisa, Jennie immediately dispelled the doubts in her heart. Still, she felt that something was wrong.

"Diana, there is no need for you to be here now. Go outside and ask Miss Zhou to leave. Senior Zhou can't rush here because he is in G City for now, but he had already called. No matter what, we have to accept that family's intentions." Chitthip looked at Diana and said softly.

Diana didn't say anything. She merely bit her lips, looked worriedly at Lisa on the bed, yet didn't dare to move forward. She nodded obediently, turned around, and walked out.

"Jennie, last week when you and Lisa went back to G City, who did you meet?" Old Man suddenly spoke hesitantly. His tone was also a bit serious.

Jennie paused and was about to speak when Lisa, who was in a deep coma, appeared to be moving.

"Lis, are you awake?" Jennie was stunned as she looked down at his fingers that she had been holding in her hands the whole time. She saw that his fingers had indeed moved a little. "Lisa, can you hear me? Lisa?"

Upon hearing Jennie's words, Old Man and Chitthip immediately took a few steps forward, carefully looking at Lisa on the bed.

However, Lisa's fingers only moved a little and stopped. Jennie's originally happy expression immediately disappeared. She looked at Lisa's pale face and clenched her fingers tightly.

"I'll call the doctor." After Chitthip finished her sentence, she quickly walked out of the ward. Old Man stood to the side and sighed with emotion.

Not long after, Diana walked in again. "Grandfather, you and Jennie must be tired. What if I take care of Lisa?"

Jennie glanced at Diana, and before the Old Man could open his mouth, she immediately rejected her offer, "No need, I'm not tired. It's only right and proper for a wife to take care of her husband. Even if I'm tired, I don't need to trouble you to do anything about it."

"You ..." Diana immediately raised her eyebrows and whispered, "Jennie, you really don't know what is good for you. I tried to help Lisa."

Jennie did not dare to accept Diana's help. She stared at her without batting an eyelid. "You have never taken care of a person before and always needed people to take care of you since you were young. I do not dare to trouble you with this. Moreover, I'm not ready to part with Lisa."

Jennie then looked at the thoughtful Old Man. "Grandpa, please forgive my selfishness this time. Lisa had just passed through a dangerous period. I really don't want to leave him."

Old Man nodded. "Of course I understand." Then, he looked at Diana and said, "Diana, you really don't know how to take care of people. Go back and take care of your plants. There is no need for you to be here. Right, has Miss Zhou left?"

Diana was a little reluctant. She still bit her lip and said softly, "She's already left. I said you asked her to go back to rest. She seemed to have understood something and left without saying anything else."

Old Man acknowledged and said, "It's good that she left. Otherwise, Miss Zhou will continue waiting outside. If Senior Zhou finds out, there might be more trouble. Luckily, Miss Zhou didn't force our Family too much."

To outsiders, Niki was a reasonable, beautiful, and generous woman but in front of her, she was just a proud, arrogant woman and tragic loser who treated relationships as games.

Jennie didn't want to think about it anymore, so she didn't interrupt Old Man's talk.

Only after Diana had left did the Old Man walk towards her again. He stood by the bed and looked down at her. "Who exactly did you meet the last time you were in G City? Tell me everything."

Jennie knew that she couldn't hide it from Old Man anymore, so she told him everything that had happened before and after, excluding the fact that she had seen Jia in the cemetery.

This was because Jennie knew the cause of the accident was her. Jia might have misunderstood the Manoban Family and said those strange words that day, but she wouldn't hurt her.

Old Man frowned at this. He seemed to think of something and looked closer at Jennie's expression. "Are you telling the truth?"

After seeing Jennie nodded her head, Old Man narrowed his eyes. "Looks like this has something to do with the Kim Family. No matter how I think about it, I will never imagine that they will be truly ruthless."

Jennie chuckled, "Grandfather, everything is just a guess. If it's really as we thought, I'm afraid they would already know that the one injured is Lisa. They should be even more nervous than us right now."

"That's right. Child, leave the matter to me. You can stay at ease with Lisa. When he wakes up, you must notify me immediately."

After Old Man said this, he took out his cell phone and made a call. Then, he turned around and walked out.

Jennie got up to send the Old Man. When she saw the Old Man enter the elevator and as she was about to return to the ward, Jennie immediately noticed that Diana hadn't left. She also saw V standing at the end of the corridor, smoking.

V looked very annoyed.

Jennie frowned. Since when did V smoke so much?

She quickly walked towards him. As she got closer, she heard Diana's words, "When Jennie fainted and you carried her, grandpa saw it! If it wasn't for Lisa saving her at that time, and if it wasn't for the fact that grandfather didn't have the mood to think about the relationship between you two siblings, do you think you two would still be able to be so relaxed?"

"Also, V, so what if I stole that photo last time? What can you do to me? Don't think you can step on me just because you're surnamed Manoban!"

"You are worse than me! Don't pretend to be so arrogant all the time! I, Diana, am willing to cooperate with you! Don't put on an open front with me. Do you think I don't know that you were the one who caused the ancestral hall to collapse? We are all the same people, why are you avoiding me?"

V immediately pinched a cigarette and looked at Diana expressionlessly, as if he didn't care about her mockery and provocation. "Are you done? Then, you can leave."

"V!" Diana angrily shouted and was about to hit him.

At this moment, Jennie already walked over. "V."

When V saw her, he went straight to her and didn't bother to look at Diana again. Diana stared at him and bit her lip angrily. "You'll see what will happen!"

Only after Diana ran down the stairs did Jennie ask seriously, "What's wrong? Why is Diana looking for you?"
