Lisa frowned as he leaned back in his seat. He did not seem very bothered as he looked in front and noticed Haruto's concerned gaze. "I'm fine."
"Chauffeur Wang, what's wrong?" Haruto calmed down when he heard Lisa's reply. He shot Chauffeur Wang a darkened expression, and the chauffeur was sweating as he explained, "I'm sorry, Master, I saw a dog crossing in front of the car just now, so..."
"It's fine. Continue driving."
Lisa was still calm as usual. He already went back to reading his documents while Haruto was still fretting. "Be more careful!"
What if Master had been injured?
Haruto was really shocked just now. He was reminded about the accident back in City B. Master knew what happened, but he did not continue the investigation or take any action in the end. What was he thinking?
Chauffeur Wang nodded. "I'm sorry. I'll be more careful from now on. I'm sorry, Master!" He then continued to drive carefully.
At this moment, the phone started ringing. Haruto picked it up and noticed who was calling, so he turned towards Lisa and said, "Master, it's a call from Master Kim. Should I...?"
"What's the time now?" Lisa asked.
"It's almost 3 p.m. now. We should be able to make it back for the meeting," replied Haruto as he took a glance at his watch.
Lisa flipped another page and replied without even batting an eye, "Don't take his call. Give him a call back after that."
Haruto nodded, rejecting the call. "Yes, Master!"
The car slowly arrived at Glory World Corporation as they spoke, and Lisa closed his documents.
On the other hand, Jisoo walked out of Miyeon's office angrily. His expression was sour as his call was not picked up. He called the number again and still did not get a response. The slap mark on his face was extremely obvious, and the swelling had gotten worse.
Jisoo had a cold smile plastered on his face as his phone screen darkened. He kept his phone and noticed Wang Qin right in front of him.
Wang Qin was heartbroken to see him looking so pathetic. She teared up and just looked at Jisoo without saying a word. A cold light flashed past in her eyes when she saw the swollen mark on his face.
After some time, Wang Qin called out to him, "Jisoo..."
Jisoo looked downwards as he grabbed his phone tightly and took a deep breath. He looked away and continued walking forward.
Wang Qin grabbed Jisoo's arm when he walked past her. She asked him in a grim tone, "Jisoo, did he slap you? Did that bastard slap you?"
Jisoo shook off her hand. Though his voice sounded calm, it was also bitter and lifeless. His anger sounded like sharp knives to Wang Qin's ears, and her tears started to fall as the knives stabbed into her. "It's none of your business. Don't get yourself into trouble."
...
"Jisoo!"
Wang Qin grabbed Jisoo who was trying to leave, her voice sounding irate. "How could he do this? How could he slap you? What right does he have to do that?"
Wang Qin had no idea what happened. She just wanted to come and see Jisoo. Unexpectedly, she saw Kim Joon rushing towards Miyeon's office with a grim expression, thus she went over to take a look as she sensed something was not right. She did not expect to see Jisoo coming out of Miyeon's office like this!
Jisoo shook off Wang Qin's hand again. While the slap mark seemed painful, he was not portraying any emotion of any sort. Instead, he smiled drily and said, "I bet he wanted to do this since a long time ago. Let him be. You don't have to bother yourself with him. You know very well what kind of person he's like."
He then walked forward without looking back.
"Jisoo! Listen to me..." Wang Qin tried to catch up to him.
At the same time, inside Miyeon's office.
Kim Joon finally calmed down after he unleashed his anger. He put his hands on the table in exasperation as he glanced at all the papers around the room. Even after taking several deep breaths, his expression still looked stormy.
Miyeon slowly went closer to him.
"Don't be angry, Uncle Kim. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have triggered him like that. I knew he..." Miyeon seemed uneasy as she looked at Kim Joon guiltily with a frown. "Jisoo has always been like this. I should've known better. Maybe my return has triggered some serious disturbance within him. I just didn't expect Jennie to be so important to him to the extent that he's doing this to us. It seems like his hatred for Lisa has disappeared."
"That unfilial child!" Kim Joon looked at the empty entrance in disappointment. "His personality is just like his mother's, always like going against me. You've seen what happened at the meeting today! The two of them are definitely hoping for me to die. I wouldn't have taken action against them if they'd just give in and not go against me, and just look what he did just now!"
"Uncle Kim, actually, Jisoo..."
"I'm still alive! How dare he?! Miyeon, please don't mind him."
