The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Manoban's Pampered Wife Book 4

Chapter 602: Reluctance (3)

Lisa could hear the grimness from his tone, yet when he looked at him, he saw a cold and demonic smile.

He fell silent for a moment, then said calmly, "I have long heard about your esteemed father and your mother within the circle. I rather admire your mother, Mrs. Wang's courage."

"She's just a tragedy too." Jisoo had huge prejudice against Wang Qin. When he said that, it was just an indifferent mockery. Only he understood his own feelings as he turned away a little annoyed, and gazed into the blue sky.

Lisa turned to the side and studied him. "Everyone chooses their own way to live, whether it's a tragedy or comedy. It's the way others see it. If they all have different focuses, the same things might not seem the same to the people involved."

Lisa obviously knew about Kim Joon and Wang Qin. Ryujin had long done a thorough investigation on the Kim family. Kim Joon and Wang Qin were just marriage partners at most. They did not have any affection between them. Both had people that they fancied before they were married, and because of this marriage, the two of them were tied down to each other. It must not have felt like the best option, but since they wanted to benefit from some things, they needed to first give up on others.

Without love, perhaps they did not have too much of the so-called pain. The fight for benefits was really a conflict of truth between them.

"Lisa, sometimes I admire you. There's an advantage to being a cold person since you have less to worry about than people like us. I remember that Shasha told me very long ago that you're a very indifferent person. You seem gentle, but in reality, you're the most hostile. I've thought about it this time. No matter what, working with you wouldn't be a bad thing. Even if we can't work together, we should at least coexist peacefully, so I'll accept the things you've handed me. Consider me owing you a favor, but I do want to know why you're helping me. You know that I'm prejudiced against you."

Jisoo fixed his eyes on Lisa. Even though he roughly knew the answer, he still would like to see how this man would answer.

Lisa calmly averted his gaze and reached out to hold onto the cold railing. "I'm preparing for a rainy day."

He knew that he was just asking even though he already knew the answer, but he still admitted it very magnanimously. He never worried about being seen through. Since it would be a win-win situation, why not fight for it?

"In fact, Master Kim, I, Lisa Manoban, am just a businessman. I have principles towards my partners, that is that I wouldn't let them suffer a loss. Of course, I can't be on the losing end too. If I can meet both conditions, I would do it. Of course, I'm assured to be working with you too. My Missus... She says you're a good person."

As Lisa said this, his honorable and handsome face flashed with a plain smile, and you could see some sincerity in his dark eyes.

When Jisoo heard this admonition, he was momentarily stunned. Jennie's bright and beautiful little face flashed in his mind.

A good person?

Was he a good person?

He suddenly remembered that time on a rainy day near her apartment, and that night she collapsed beside her car.

Some things were actually quite intriguing. Even if he did not deliberately try to remember them, they would have a way of unintentionally staying in his heart. When he thought about these things, Jisoo felt at ease for some reason. The smile could not help but widen on his handsome face. "She told you that I'm a good person?"

She did not even admit it to him. What a petty woman!

Lisa did not answer him. His gaze that was full of depth turned to face Jisoo. "I said you're a pretty good person, and after that, she reluctantly agreed. In fact, she's my woman. She even has my child now. Can you be less enthusiastic whenever you hear her name? If I wasn't raised so well, you would've been unscathed right now."

When Lisa said this, Jisoo was stunned for a while. He never would have thought that the great Master Manoban would actually have a dry sense of humor too. After he stared at him for a while, he turned away and laughed. "What a petty man! If I made a move first, you wouldn't even have a chance! Back then, the Kim family was determined to give her to me, and then you showed up unexpectedly and ruined my plan. Now that I think about it, I really can't quite accept it!"

"She wouldn't fancy you." Lisa's calm and unaffected voice came, his voice filled with confidence.

"You'll never know. How can you be so certain? I, Kim Jisoo, have never failed whenever I set my heart on going after a woman."

"I do know, just based on the fact that my name is in the column as her spouse," Lisa answered calmly. He looked up to the faraway sky, paused, and then continued, "Have you never thought of looking for Sehun? The entry-exit details show that Miyeon returned alone."

Jisoo then stopped smiling. "Why should I go look for him? It's only good news to me if he never comes back."

He had also heard the news about Miyeon returning to City B before wandering back to City Z, but he did not find out more. Even though he was not sure what he was afraid of, it had been so many years. Would some things not have changed too?

He was uncertan. He was only sure of himself, sure that he had changed...

Lisa squinted at him and then nodded. "I'm not agreeing to some beliefs to be so self-sacrificial. Many times, you can only talk about these things if you're capable enough. Things that you have the power to grasp shouldn't be left to others to change. Don't cling onto going after what's right or wrong. There's actually a very simple of way of proving this. Compare the version of you that has a goal to achieve with the version of you right now. As long as you're living better then than you are right now, then it would've been right for you to persist all along."

Then, he suddenly turned away, smiled, and walked towards the stairs.

"But I still wish you all the best. You're a person worth being good friends with. Let's gather more in the future."

Then, he walked down the stairs from the balcony and his tall and lean figure soon vanished at the staircase. Only Jisoo was left on the empty balcony.

When he saw Lisa's figure disappear, Jisoo suddenly shouted after him, "Hey, give me an Imperial Sky Entertainment City VIP card!"

Lisa instantly stopped walking and suddenly turned to look at him. He smiled coolly. "Next time, when you come over to my company, I'll get Jennie to give you one."

Then, he finally vanished too.

With an amused smile, Jisoo reached up to brush his nose.

It felt pretty satisfying to take a little advantage of Lisa!
