The Wife Is A Superstar 7

Chapter 1275: Not a Saint Nor a Saviour

"Save me!!!" Minnie hung onto Jennie's legs with all her might. "Please, I beg you!!! Jennie Kim, have mercy on me and save me!!!!! Waaaaaaaaah!!!!!"

Before she could continue any further, she was grabbed by the neck and then thrown away. She groaned in pain when she hit the wall. Her blurry eyes saw a frightening hulk of a man glowering down on her. She began shaking harder and avoided looking at the scary man.

However, her desire to survive was stronger. She had already long forgotten about her image. She didn't care about anything anymore and began crawling on the floor back to Jennie.

"Stay away," Jiyong growled.

Minnie's teeth chattered but she did her best to grit them and continue her slow, pathetic crawl to what she believed was her salvation.

"Big Brother, please stop," Jennie said.

Jiyong snarled at the crawling woman, "Don't touch."

Minnie nodded and stopped when she was a few steps away from them. Only then did the scary man step aside. She lifted her head and saw Lisa hugging Jennie in a protective manner.

Unlike the two men's disgust, she could only see calmness and maybe even pity in Jennie's expression.

Minnie's surgically-enhanced body parts looked grotesque with her current emaciated appearance. Her hair was dry, frizzy, with her original black roots growing out of her coloured hair.

She knelt down in front of Jennie and sobbed.

"Please, I beg you. Wuwuwu! Jennie Kim, I have wronged you because of Diana! I now know everything, that she used me and her maternal cousins to harm you and Lisa! Diana has been my best friend for the longest time but she...she...wuwuwu—she just abandoned me to save herself from the consequences of her crime! I was so loyal to her! Even if I didn't agree with her plans, I still supported her! But she just used me! Waaaaaaaaaaaah!!! I have always known her true colours but this is the first time I personally feel victimized because of her!!! Waaaaaaah!!!!!"

Jennie didn't say anything and continued watching her.

Lisa monitored his wife's condition, intending to carry her out the first sign that she showed any discomfort at the current situation.

Jiyong continued to glare at the wailing Minnie, ready to keep her away from his sister if the woman dared to grab Jennie again.

"I'm so sorry, Jennie Kiiim! Waaaaaaaaaah!!! I regret everything I did with Diana to harm you! I really do!!!!! Please save me!!!!! I can't take it anymore!!!!! I don't want to die here!!!!! Wuwuwu!!!! I'll do everything and anything you want me to!!!! Just, please, have mercy on me. Please, Jennie!!!! Please!!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!"

Jennie stepped forward but Lisa held her back while Jiyong blocked her with his arm.

"You two, stop this," she told them.

"No." Lisa was firm.

So was Jiyong.

She shook their arms away. They were reluctant but finally allowed her to approach Minnie.

Jennie crouched down in front of the sobbing woman. Then she caressed Minnie's wet cheek.

"Do you really regret your role in Diana's crime?" she asked, her voice a soft, gentle whisper.

Minnie nodded quickly, as if afraid that doing it too slowly would cause her head to fly away from her neck.

"You say that you'll do everything and anything."

"Y-yes!!!!!"

"Even if that means betraying your best friend?"

Minnie's expression showed pure heartbreak. Jennie pitied the woman but she couldn't afford to be too soft right now. Although Minnie was pitiful especially since she only followed Diana's evil plans due to her loyalty to their friendship, it was still a fact that Minnie was an accomplice.

The unnaturally plump lips of Minnie trembled. "D...no, Diana Young betrayed me first...wuwuwu!!!"

Jennie waited.

Finally, Minnie's wet, swollen eyes flashed with a firm resolve. "I-I will do it! If you want me to become enemies with my best friend—no, with my ex-best friend, then so be it! Wuwuwu... Anything, Jennie Kim! I'll be your d-dog if you w-want, just please take me away from this hellish place! Please!!! Waaaaah!!!!!"

Jennie's pupils shook but she quickly hardened herself. She could only imagine the kind of torture the poor woman experienced under her brother's subordinates. This kind of situation was against her moral values but it seemed that no matter how hard she tried, she could never completely escape from the shadows of this kind of life.

"Alright," she said.

Hope filled Minnie's face. "R-really?!"

Jennie stood up. Minnie panicked and immediately moved to follow her but the scary Jiyong blocked her.

"W-wait!!!" Minnie was scared that they would leave her here.

Jennie looked back at her. "I am not a saint, Minnie, nor am I your saviour."

Minnie's mouth trembled and hopelessness filled her.

"But I have the power to give you a second chance."

Minnie looked up, feeling hopeful once again.

"I will use you to crush Diana and the power supporting her and the Young family."

Minnie swallowed but continued listening to Jennie with rapt attention.

"Minnie, will you shed your old self and follow me?"

"Yes!" Minnie didn't hesitate to shout with all her might. She couldn't afford not to do so.

"But I demand your complete obedience. If you ever betray me like you have betrayed Diana today...."

Minnie saw the coldness in Jennie's eyes and her heart froze before quaking. At that moment, Jennie was even more frightening than the big hulk of a man Jiyong in Minnie's eyes. Jennie didn't need to continue her sentence. Minnie understood the rest of the warning that was left unsaid.

She nodded with chattering teeth and prostrated herself to the ground to demonstrate her obedience.

Jennie's cold eyes shook once again upon seeing the other woman's pathetic state. She turned away.

"Big Brother, make the arrangements," she said before leaving the room without waiting for Jiyong's response.

Jennie walked with quick steps but slowed down in the hallway. She tried to grab the concrete wall to support herself.

Lisa pulled her in his arms and soothed her with reassuring murmurs. "You're okay, love. You're fine.. I'm here."
