Jennie left the invitation card aside as she gave it some consideration. Moments later, she looked at Suzy and said, "Send them a gift on behalf of Chairman Manoban and I."
She did not plan to go at all, but since the invitation mentioned Lisa, that was her conclusion after careful consideration.
Suzy nodded. "Noted, Director Kim."
As she was about to leave, Jennie suddenly said, "Wait."
Suzy stopped and turned around. "Is there anything else?"
Jennie took a deep breath before she continued, "Prepare another gift as well. Deliver it on behalf of my father."
Suzy was stunned for a moment, but she quickly nodded immediately. "Okay!" Then, she left swiftly.
Hae Sook smiled and gave her an impressed expression. "You're really nice to your father. If others were in your shoes, I'm sure they'd hate your father, but I'm glad that you're able to be so lenient. At least, this tells me you're a kind person."
Hae Sook took a deep breath. "Even family relationships should be carefully considered. Know your limits and give up on those that you can't keep as long as you maintain kind intentions."
Jennie nodded. When she saw the hesitation in Hae Sook's eyes, she was instantly reminded of Lisa and Suho.
She did not know what to answer. After remaining silent for a while, she then replied, "I understand, Grandmother. There are some things in life that are hard to give up, even more so when it's the people that have given me life. My parents are in love with each other, and they've wasted two decades without each other by their sides. If my forgiveness can give them a chance to be together again, why shouldn't I? Lisa always told me that my EQ is pretty low and that I'm bad at judging people. He said I don't really have to overthink things. If things are better after I've done something, then the decision is right."
Hae Sook smiled at her. "That's it! Lisa is probably like his father. He'll lecture you from time to time."
Jennie returned a smile and continued eating.
The weather became colder. She felt a chill when she woke up the next morning. Several yellowish leaves fell by the roadside as a strong wind had blown through.
City Z was not as cold as the north. Even if it were winter, the trees there would still be mostly green.
Ryujin was not in the mood to look at the autumn scenery so early in the morning. He walked past the corridor and arrived at a quiet corner in Hospital T.
There was a person wearing a white robe there.
The doctor had been waiting for Ryujin's arrival, and he greeted warmly even before Ryujin came close, "Good morning, Mr. Mo!"
Ryujin nodded humbly as he gave a quiet reply, "Morning, Chief Wang! Have you been waiting?"
Chief Wang smiled. "I've just arrived. It must be tough for you to be here this early in the morning! I've just finished an operation and I'm going abroad later. That's why I called you here."
He then handed a document to Ryujin.
"Are the results out?" Ryujin's heart trembled slightly when he saw the document handed over to him. Suddenly, he felt a little afraid to grab it as if he was afraid of the test results.
"Yes, they came out yesterday. I verified it myself. No one will know about this."
Chief Wang did not notice Ryujin's odd reaction because his eyes were focused on the document.
Ryujin hesitated for a moment before reaching out for it.
"The results are unexpected. I wonder..." Chief Wang said out of curiosity, but when he saw Ryujin's slightly threatening eyes, he did not continue his question and just smiled slightly.
Ryujin did not open it instantly. Instead, he looked at Chief Wang. "The secrecy of this matter has to be ensured. You'll forget about this after I leave. Don't ask anything you shouldn't, and don't try to find out what it is either. Do you understand?"
Chief Wang nodded. "Yes, I know. Don't worry. I'll be heading back now. Give me a call if you have any questions."
"Thank you, Chief Wang!"
"It's just a small matter. I still owe you." Chief Wang smiled before leaving.
Ryujin left quickly and got into the car. "Let's go."
Sitting in the front passenger seat, Ryujin opened the folder and took the test results out. Then, he started reading it.
When he saw the results, his strained expression softened a little. Soon, it turned into a doubtful look, and then he seemed serious.
How could it be?
Ryujin's expression darkened. It felt impossible.
He looked at the results several times before putting it back. He took his phone out and called Lisa who was now on the other side of the globe.
At the same time, on the balcony of a presidential suite in a hotel in New York.
Lisa was resting on a rattan chair while Seulgi was lying down beside him. There was a small coffee table between them, and a pot of freshly brewed tea with two teacups.
Seulgi closed the document in his hand as he looked at the sun. He stretched his back and sipped some tea before turning towards Lisa. "We're heading to Los Angeles in a few days. Aren't your in-laws are there? How're Teacher Son's eyes?"
Seulgi was aware of what had happened to Ye-Jin. Back then, when Lisa got married, he had seen her before. She carried a similar aura to Jennie, but there were also some differences between them.
"The operation is complete. She'll need some time for observation after removing the bandages. I'll go take a look at them this time around."
"You're pretty nice to them."
"It's part of my responsibility." Lisa's phone started vibrating as he spoke, and he slowly picked it up.
