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

Chapter 673: Can't Run Away From Responsibility

When Chitiip said this, her expression was slightly solemn. She silently watched Lisa's handsome face and paused for a while. When he did not answer, she continued, "I won't say too much. I just hope that you will be more vigilant. I've never agreed for the two of you to be together. Right from the start, even though your father and I are in high positions, we're in a very sensitive situation. We can't give you anything. The only thing we can fight for you is that we hope for you to have a happy marriage."

"I watched Miyeon grow up too. All these years, I could tell that you didn't have her on your mind, so I knew. Actually, back then when you agreed to marry her, I'd personally went looking for her, hoping that she could leave you because I could not see a hint of love in your eyes. Lisa, I'll never be afraid to admit the things that I've done. I know what kind of person my son is. If you're still blaming yourself for Suho's incident, then I'm afraid I can't run away from the responsibility either."

When Chitiip finished, Lisa was stunned for a moment. He suddenly looked up at her, his depth-filled eyes suddenly filled with mixed complications. Then, he looked away and picked up the teapot before pouring some tea for Chitiip again as he said, "Why did you look for her? Since I've nodded and agreed to marry her, I have my own plans too."

"Because I think that she doesn't suit you, Lisa... Even though everyone should have their own love and no one can imitate anyone else, I still hope that you could be like your father and I. You are the combination of your father and me. I hope that you can be happy too. While Miyeon is extremely shrewd, there's also the relationship with the Cho family too."

Chitiip sighed softly. "Back then, when I went to look for her, I struggled for a long time too, but my father didn't stop me."

"I clearly told her that even if she married into the Manoban family, I wouldn't acknowledge her. In fact, I was firm on not having her work at Glory World Corporation. I've long noticed Cho Qihao is wildly ambitious. Otherwise, he wouldn't still let Miyeon and Sehun have their unclear relationship while knowing that Miyeon was your fiancèe."

Even though Chitiip was not a businesswoman, she was still someone who had hustled in the political scene for many years. Plus, with her position, she held extraordinary vigilance and was very careful doing all things. She could not afford the slightest mistake. This was how as a woman, she could hold such a high position and did not have a single scandal.

She had always been like this. As long as she realized something was odd, she would make a move first and not let it develop into a disaster. Even Lisa admired how firm and decisive she was in doing things.

"So, Lisa, I probably can't run from the responsibility of Miyeon eloping before her marriage. When I went to look for her, Suho found out. You also know even though Suho has been calling me mother for all these years, he's not close to me. I even flung a cup of coffee onto Miyeon's face, and Suho saw it all."

Upon hearing Chitiip, a puzzlement flashed in Lisa's eyes. He looked calmly at Chitiip and said in a gruff voice, "What are you trying to say by telling me all of this?"

Chitiip suddenly smiled. She lowered her head for a sip of tea, suddenly seeming relieved. "Lisa, don't you understand?"

"You're saying..."

"Suho has liked Miyeon for a long time. Tell me. How can I let a woman like her marry into the Manoban family? Am I going to let you two brothers fall out with each other? Suho is already prejudiced against you, isn't he? I've been trying to guess why as the older brother, you've been protecting Suho while he... Then, I personally saw Miyeon cry in front of him because of the marriage to you."

Chitiip's tone was filled with certainly as Lisa's gaze darkened and he stopped what he doing. "But Suho told me that he only saw Miyeon as a sister and that he'd never had any other thoughts. That was why I agreed."

Chitiip did not respond this time. She only smiled.

...

Not long after lunch, the husband and wife went looking for Yong Gun, but they did not go straight to the Son residence. Instead, they agreed to Yong Gun's request and went to a golf course near the residence.

Yong Gun and Lisa decided on playing a few games of golf.

Jennie had never really played before. Usually, when she came looking for Yong Gun, it would just be to watch him play.

Unexpectedly, now she would watch Yong Gun and Lisa play rather jovially. Yong Gun was far more meticulous with Lisa than her as the granddaughter. When she thought about this, Jennie felt melancholic for some reason, but seeing them happy was worth it.

Jennie lay on the lounge chair leisurely as she turned to the side to watch the drizzle outside the French windows. Suddenly, the man's voice came into her ears. When she subconsciously turned to look, he had already walked over and swiftly sat down beside her while Yong Gun was already resting on the other side.

She reached out to take the golf club.

Jennie looked puzzled at the golf club in hand as she muttered, "I don't quite know how to play it yet..."

"Didn't I teach you before? Have you already forgotten all about it?" As he asked her softly, his tall and warm body had already leaned down to take away the golf club from her hand. "You can't play right now, but I'll teach you next time."

She nodded and then handed a glass of warm water to Yong Gun. "Grandpa, have some water."

"Okay."

Yong Gun drank two sips, and then looked at the couple. "I've carefully considered the South River project. Since the two of you recommend Jisoo, then tell him to prepare the proposal in another two days. I want to meet him personally. If he really is as you say, then it's possible for us to work with him."

Upon hearing this, Jennie was shocked. She quickly looked at Lisa, knowing that he had recommended Jisoo to Yong Gun.

"Lisa, I've taken a look at the materials you sent over. Jisoo's background in construction is pretty solid. If Fuhua can maintain a long term working relationship with him, it's not a bad thing. It's good to have someone like Jisoo on our side. You can set aside personal grudges and partner up for the benefit of all. Lisa, you did well."

Yong Gun acknowledged Lisa with recognition. The more he saw this grandson-in-law of his, the more he was satisfied.
