Substitute Bride's Husband Is An Invisible Rich Man

Chapter 118: Scheming

From their conversation, Lisa roughly pieced together the entire incident. She frowned slightly and politely said to the woman, "I'm sorry, Miss. I apologize to you on her behalf. We will pay for it."

Regardless of whether this matter was as the woman said, it was a fact that Jennie had dirtied someone else's dress. Naturally, she had to bear the responsibility of compensation.

"You're paying? Do you know how much this gown costs?" The woman asked calmly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't..." Before Jennie could finish her words, Lisa glanced at her.

"No matter how much it costs, we should pay for your gown. Regarding Jennie's mistake, I hope you can forgive us."

The woman looked at Lisa for a moment and smiled. "Okay, give me your contact information. I will let you know after the cleaning fee is confirmed."

The two exchanged contact information and the woman followed the waiter to change her clothes.

It was common for hotels to stock spare clothes in case of incidents like this

After the woman left, Jennie was still crying. Lisa didn't know what to say.

...

"Aiyo! Jeon Justin, you're finally here. Do you know how Lin Peng looked at sister-in-law just now? Tsk."

The person who spoke was none other than the Young Master Qin that the woman spoke of, Taehyung.

This person still didn't know how much trouble he had caused. When he called Jeon Justin just now, he saw from the corner of his eye that there was a woman holding a glass of wine that seemed to be coming for him, he waited for the woman to come closer before he dodged her and came to find Jeon Justin.

"Why did Lin Peng notice Lisa? Lisa went to greet her herself?"

Taehyung was sure that when Jungkook said this, he saw murderous intent in his eyes.

"No, no, no. Why would sister-in-law do that? I think Krystal found her and asked her to go. Don't you know what kind of person Lin Peng is? If Krystal wants to get close to the Lin family, the first thing she would think to do is use sister-in-law."

Seeing that Jungkook 's expression was getting colder, Taehyung quickly shut his mouth.

"Where is Lisa?" Jungkook asked.

Taehyung raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "You are going to go look for her? Are you going to come clean? How are you going to explain it to her?"

These three deadly questions Taehyung asked in a row made Jungkook stop. He turned his head and looked at him coldly, "Noisy."

"Um..."

Taehyung silently cried in his heart. Why was he so afraid of Jungkook ?

Jungkook rushed to the hall anxiously. He did not notice the three people who brushed past him.

Lisa was currently patting Jennie on the back to comfort her. However, Jennie's tears showed no signs of stopping. This made Lisa suspicious of the woman's words. If Jennie really did it on purpose, why would she be crying so badly?

The three of them had no choice but to leave early and take a taxi back to the hotel where they stayed.

In the taxi, Soyeon sat in the front passenger seat, while Lisa and Jennie sat in the back.

Halfway through the journey, Soyeon suddenly said, "Don't cry anymore. No one is watching."

As soon as she said this, Lisa's comforting voice disappeared, and so did Jennie's crying.

"Jennie, I don't want to hear your voice anymore. Do you understand?" Soyeon's voice was cold and piercing. Lisa did not expect Soyeon to say such harsh words.

"Sister Xu..."

"Lisa, don't plead for her. The three of us know what happened today. Jennie, no one will stop you if you want to climb up. But you have to be clear about your priorities. Tonight was an opportunity for us to get to know the higher-ups of Lin Group. It would have been of great help to us in revising and correcting our plans, but you just had to create trouble at this time. What are you trying to do?"

"Sister Xu... I'm not," Jennie said in a low voice.

"Ha, Jennie, let me tell you. I'm determined to win this project. You'd better not create any more trouble for me. Otherwise, I really don't know what I am going to do to you."

This was the first time Lisa saw Soyeon get angry. She was a little afraid, but more than that, she admired her. Powerful people didn't need to argue. They just had to bring up facts, and make you reflect on your own mistakes.

This time, Jennie didn't speak. She just lowered her head. Even Lisa couldn't see her expression clearly.

Lisa had just arrived at the hotel when Jungkook called.
