Substitute Bride's Husband Is An Invisible Rich Man

Chapter 139: Confession

After Jungkook left, Lisa was about to call Soyeon and tell her everything.

Because after she realized who wanted to kidnap her last night, she understood that they definitely would not win the project. She had to tell Soyeon and Jennie the reason.

However, compared to Jennie, Lisa felt that Soyeon was much more mature and would be able to handle the news better.

To delay Jungkook from coming back so soon, Lisa specially sent him a text message before the call, hoping that he would go to Mo Nuan to buy her a drink.

After she was ready, Lisa dialed the number anxiously.

"Hello, Sister Xu, this is Lisa."

"Yes."

Soyeon's voice was faint on the phone, Lisa could tell that Soyeon was not in a good mood. Thinking back to the conversation that ended on bad terms between the two of them, Lisa felt a little awkward. She did not expect so many things to happen.

"Sister Xu, is there anyone beside you? I have something to tell you in private."

There was a moment of silence on the other side. After a while, Soyeon said, "There's no one else."

After organizing her words, Lisa talked about what Krystal did before they left C City, as well as her thoughts and what happened after they arrived in Jing City. This included the people she had met last night and the various connections she had with Eunbi.

The conversation took a long time. After Lisa finished speaking, Soyeon was silent for a long time before she asked, "Why are you telling me this?"

"I think by default we won't win the project. I hope you can understand."

Lisa knew that she was trying to shirk responsibility, but she could not let Soyeon distance herself from her because the project had failed.

Soyeon sneered, "If it weren't for you, we would have won the project. Moreover, the enmity with Krystal is also a problem between you and Krystal. Us losing the project is all your fault. Do you think I can forgive you?"

Lisa frowned slightly and said with a dark expression, "Sister Xu, if you really think that. way, you probably won't tell me this."

"First of all, the personal conflict between me and Krystal, to be precise, should be the power struggle between CEO Song and the Deputy General Manager. Expanding into Jing City is related to the development of the company. Without the Deputy General Manager's permission, no matter how much Krystal hates me, she wouldn't dare to tamper with the documents. Second, I don't believe what you say is what you truly believe. You previously said that you didn't want us to get the project because of our good relationship with the Lin Group's executives. Seeing what type of person the young master is, would you even accept to collaborate with Lin Group? Even if we do accept the project, if the Lin family's young master makes such a request in the future, are you willing to send your subordinates to his bed?"

Lisa chuckled as she spoke.

On the other side, the corners of Soyeon's lips curled up slightly. Lisa was right. There was no sense of security when working with such a person.

Once they took the first step to expand their market into such a circle, Hong Jing would definitely become the Lin family's young master's beauty contest venue in the future.

However, Soyeon was not going to let Lisa off so easily. She said, "You have no proof. Just based on the license plate number alone, you're saying that the Lin family's young master harbors ill intentions towards you? Lisa, you need evidence to back up your theories."

Unlike the time with Kai, the reason why Lisa took the risk was to obtain evidence, therefore, she could confidently reply to Soyeon, "Eunbi's cell phone data is being repaired. Together with my statement and Mr. Du's car recording device, the truth should be revealed very soon."

"I'll wait and see."

Soyeon's words indicated that this matter could be put aside for the time being. There were other matters that needed to be asked, "Other than these, why are you telling me about your stepsister?"

When Lisa talked about last night, she naturally had to mention Eunbi and Eunbi's relationship with her.

"I hope you can help me hide the fact that I'm in the hospital from Jennie."

"Is it because of the way Jennie addressed you?" Soyeon asked.

"Not exactly," Lisa thought for a moment before answering, "I can only be friends with Jennie."

This was a sentence that had yet to be finished, and the following sentence was 'There are many things that I can't let her know.'

Soyeon also understood what she meant, and there was a hint of surprise in her calm voice. "When I heard you say that you didn't mind her scheming, it meant that you were willing to be vulnerable with her."

"I don't mind her scheming, because her scheming has always been for her own benefit and has never harmed anyone else. But I don't dare to be vulnerable with her." Lisa smiled bitterly.

"Looks like you're not totally dumb."

This was Soyeon's evaluation of Lisa.
