The Wife Is A Superstar 7

Chapter 1305 - Why Aren't You Married Yet?

Before the Black Stars, specifically its infamous troll unit the Slippers Army, could declare an all-out war against their Boss' seemingly never-ending bashers, Lisa released a new post on his personal verified social media account.

"To all those who target my wife and children, wait for my lawyer's letter. I, Lisa Manoban, will never tolerate anyone who wants to hurt my family. Hiding behind anonymous accounts is useless. Mark my words. I'll do everything in my power to make you pay the consequences of your actions.

"In the past, I had to restrain my anger because my wife, who was my girlfriend and later became my fiancée back then, requested for me to let her handle everything involving her career. I always respect her decision.

"But now, my wife has no time to deal with toxic people who always want to pull her down. She just gave birth to our precious twin sons and is too busy being an amazing mother. That's why I can now freely do my job as a husband and father to protect my family in my own way.

"This is the first and last warning that I'll give regarding this matter. Best of luck to all those of you who are bound to receive my lawyer's letter and eventually the justice my wife and our family deserve from your libelous words. But just know that even the best of luck can't protect you from the law."

The reactions of the netizens were mixed after reading his post. But there was one thing that everyone could agree on.

CEO Manoban wasn't the leader of the biggest multinational company in the country for nothing.

Wow, so domineering!

He always had a cold, intimidating and unapproachable aura even when standing together with his charismatic wife, Jennie Kim. Other people's impression of him was that he was a man of few words.

For someone like him to release so many words in one go, it showed that the man meant business.

Man, the bashers were in real trouble now.

The Black Stars cheered and supported their Boss' husband. They felt proud that their beloved boss married a powerful man who was also dependable in times of need. Most importantly, they were relieved that the bashers were going to get what they deserved—legal retribution.

Around the same time, Chaeng headed to another part of the mansion. She saw a burly figure leaning against the wall by the door.

Jiyong didn't move from his position as he watched his woman's best friend approach. His arms were crossed over his wide chest. His posture was relaxed yet others could still sense danger emanating from him.

Chaeng felt his aura, of course. But she didn't give a damn. She fearlessly walked forward with her back straight and head and shoulders held high.

Although she already accepted that Jisoo chose to be with this man and even got herself pregnant in the process, Chaeng still couldn't find it in herself to completely like Jiyong. She couldn't forgive how the jerk broke her best friend's heart before.

Not that her own opinion was going to change Jisoo's decision. Regardless of her own negative feelings about the couple's relationship, Chaeng respected her best friend's choice. As the best friend, she just needed to be there and support Jisoo all the way.

"Where's Jisoo?" Chaeng asked. "Why aren't you with her?"

Jiyong ignored her testy tone. "Talk to Jisoo."

Chaeng crossed her own arms across her chest. "That's what I'm planning."

He didn't respond but Chaeng could sense that he had something else to tell her.

"My time is limited." She looked at wristwatch. "Hurry up and spit it out. If not, I'm going inside."

Jiyong's expression became scary. Deep inside, Chaeng felt frightened but she didn't dare show it. She lifted her chin higher instead.

After a few tense seconds which felt like forever, Jiyong sighed and ran his fingers through his hair in frustration.

"I've asked Jisoo so many times already," he said. "But she keeps on delaying the matter of our marriage. She's about to give birth. I don't want our kids to be born illegitimate! Dammit!"

Chaeng's fierce attitude momentarily broke as she hesitated. Seeing the man's obvious awkward frustration was quite pitiful. She sighed.

"Fine. I'll speak to her about this."

He nodded. His expression didn't show it but she knew that the man must be relieved.

"I'm not doing this for you but for Jisoo," she added. "Remember that!"

"Of course." He hesitated before mumbling, "Thanks."

"What did you say? I can't hear you~"

Jiyong scowled but still said, "Fuck. I said THANK YOU!"

She nodded in satisfaction before opening the door and heading straight inside. Jiyong didn't follow and gave the best friends privacy.

Chaeng found Jisoo knitting a baby sock. She had already finished knitting two sets of blankets, hats and mittens. This time, she was tackling socks for her twins. Her entire focus was on preparing for her own twins' arrival ever since she took a maternity leave from work.

"Chaeng!" Jisoo smiled at her.

Chaeng made herself comfortable in another armchair. They were in the bedroom's sitting area.

"Did you see Little Mochi and Little Matcha?" Jisoo asked. "They've already grown so much since the last time you visited. Aren't they adorable?"

The best friends chatted about Jennie's twins for some time before Chaeng shifted the conversation.

"Why aren't you married to Jiyong yet?"

Jisoo was a little taken aback at the sudden topic change. She became nervous. "Ah, uhm. Hahaha."

"Don't hahaha me. I'm serious. I know how much you want to marry that jerkwad—that man, Jiyong. And yet what is this I'm hearing? You're actually delaying it? Aren't you the most concerned about giving birth to children out of wedlock because of your own experience as an illegitimate child?"

Jisoo's lips trembled. She avoided her best friend's direct gaze.

"I..."

Chaeng frowned at her friend's timidity.. "Don't tell me that you've changed your mind. You don't love Jiyong anymore?"
