Just now, Jungkook received a call from Taehyung. He had just seen Taehyung playing with a piece of grass not far away from the villa.
“Why are you here?” Jungkook walked behind him and asked.
Taehyung was shocked. He picked up the little kitten and turned around.
“Jeon Justin, why are you here?” Jeon Justin had just rejected his call. In the end, he saw him in person.
Jungkook glanced around, and when he saw that no one was around, he turned his gaze back to Taehyung.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already told the people following me to leave.”
“Okay, what are you doing here?”
Taehyung had come out several times to defend Lisa. Why would he appear at Eunbi’s birthday party?
“I didn’t want to come, but the Mo family sent me three invitations saying that they wanted to apologize and that sister-in-law would come. I was afraid that sister-in-law would be bullied, so I came.”
“No one dares to bully her. I can protect her.”
Jungkook frowned. He always felt that Taehyung and Lisa were too close.
Taehyung saw Jungkook ’s expression and thought to himself, “Jeon Justin, don’t think too much. I thought the Mo family wouldn’t invite you if your identity wasn’t made public, so I came because I had no choice.”
As he spoke, Taehyung even moved the little kitten closer to Jungkook , trying to shift Jungkook ’s gaze.
As expected of a childhood friend, Taehyung’s method worked. Jungkook took a step back and stayed away from Taehyung. It was not that Jungkook hated small animals, but he hated being covered in the fur of small animals.
“Stay away from me, “Jungkook said coldly.
“Don’t! Jeon Justin, look at how cute it is. I picked it up on the road, and it can’t even walk steadily.”
“Picked it up?” Jungkook ’s voice was even colder. He continued, “Have you bathed this cat? Have you sterilized it? Picking it up as you wish, aren’t you afraid of it carrying a virus? Are you sure your father won’t kill you?”
The corner of Taehyung’s mouth twitched. Why did Jungkook suddenly become so talkative?
“Jeon Justin, you’re not going to tell on me again, are you? You’ve gone too far!”
He looked at the little kitten in Taehyung’s arms and the words that were about to come out of his mouth were stuck in his throat.
“Tell me, why did you call me?”
Taehyung looked at his expression and smiled cunningly. He continued to tease him, “I wanted to tell you that I can help you check on your sister-in-law’s situation at any time, but it seems that there’s no need for that now.”
Seeing that Jungkook ’s gaze was getting colder and colder, Taehyung quickly got down to business. “The matter you asked me to investigate, I’ve found some traces, but it has been too long, so it will take some time.”
“About Lisa’s mother?” Jungkook asked.
“Yes, I found out about a classmate of sister-in-law’s mother. According to that person, sister-in-law’s mother was picked up by someone.” Taehyung stroked the little kitten as he told Jungkook the results of the investigation.
“Who picked her up?”
“According to the results of the investigation, it was likely Mo Dong, but the woman who helped sister-in-law’s mother out of the hotel has yet to be found.”
Jungkook frowned and thought for a moment before asking, “Can’t you find any trace of the hotel surveillance camera footage?”
“I can’t find it. It has been too long.” Taehyung sighed and shook his head.
“We can only wait until we find that woman before knowing the truth.”
Jungkook lowered his eyes slightly to hide the cold light in his eyes. Could it be that Mo Dong was involved in this matter?
“I remember that the Mo family started making a fortune more than ten years ago.”
Taehyung didn’t know why Jungkook suddenly said this, but he immediately had a bad guess. “Are you saying that Mo Dong was involved in what happened with sister-in-law’s mother?”
“I don’t know. I just suddenly thought of two things to investigate together.”
“Okay.” Taehyung was a little interested in this matter now, so it was good to investigate. “By the way, aren’t you afraid of people getting suspicious if you directly deal with that spy from the Grand Court Hotel?”
“It will be more troublesome if I don’t deal with it.”
He couldn’t let anyone know about Lisa for the time being. Even if someone suspected him, he had to do it.
“Okay! As long as you are careful.” Taehyung said helplessly.
Based on the current situation, Taehyung did not approve of Jungkook continuing to be with Lisa. Lisa had clearly become Jungkook ’s weak spot. No matter what he did, he had to be restrained.
If it were not for Lisa, Jungkook could have returned to Jing City. He would be able to arrange troops in the Jeon family. Moreover, if there were any changes in Jing City, he could deal with them in person, unlike now. He knew that in order for Jungkook to return to C City with Lisa, Jungkook had specially placed a substitute at his grandfather’s house in Bordeaux.
No matter what excuse Jungkook had, he had long seen through him.
Jungkook ’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed seeing Taehyung’s mother-like appearance. He didn’t know what Taehyung was thinking.
