Jennie POV

It is almost night when we reach the mansion. We saw Grandpa waiting for us with his caring face. Lisa is the one who responded to all his questions after I got up in the room.

I just came from an accident who almost took my life. When I remember what happened, I still could not resist the fear I'm still feeling that moment. After Lisa left me, I tried to rode Snow but the horse slip and kneel down. And I lost my balance and fell down in the horse back and I contineously rolled down the cliff. I thank God to the stranger who was passing that time and helped me not to fall from the deepest part of the cliff. I could've died right there and then. I could've died without telling Lisa how much I love her, how I really fell for her. But I guess, God is still giving me another chance to correct my past mistakes because He let me live. When I was there fighting for my life,my whole life flashes before me. That moment, I realized my purpose in life,it's not being a well-known supermodel or a successful hotelier. I realized I was born to be Lisa's lifetime partner,my wife's lifetime partner. I belong to her just as she belong to me. We belong together and I wanna hold on to that thought.

I didn't tell to Lisa about that because I don't want her to blame her self more. I'm not blaming her or anybody for that matter. I am responsible for my own actions. And like what I've told her earlier, it was merely an accident.

I was talking to my parents when Lisa went in. She was carrying a tray of food and she put it on the beside table. I ended the conversation with my parents when I saw her.

"Was that your parents you're talking to?" She asked after I put down the phone.

"Yeah, I just told them that we're already in Korea and that we're staying here." I replied.

"Did you told them about your accident?"

I shook my head.

"Why not?" She asked,frowning.

"Why should I? I don't want them to worry over nothing. Besides, you're my wife, you're now responsible for me."

Her look suddenly soften.

"You're right, I am responsible for you niw. And I promise you, it will never happen again. Because I will never let anything or anyone to hurt you. Not until I'm alive." She respond in a reassuring tone.

"Thank you." I barely whisper while gazing at her.

If there is something good happen because of that accident, that is the sudden change of Lisa's behavior. She changed bugtine that I myself was amazed by it. Before I was in the car I didn't expect her sudden emotional outburst, and I didn't expect more is to heard her saying sorry for all the things she did to hurt me. She's not the type and seeing her crying and helpless makes my heart crushed in a million pieces. I want her to change her ways to me and accept my love for her but I will never want to change her as a person. i learned to love her for what she us and what she is not. She won't be Lalusa Manoban anymore if she lose her formidable and intimidating look. Those special qualities of her was the reason why I love and hate her at the same time. Those traits made me fall for her,hook,line and sinker.

After we stare at each other for a few seconds she went to the tray that she put in the beside table. She put it beside me.

"You should eat. I know you didn't eat well when we are in the hospital." She utter gently.

I slightly glanced at the tray and I look at her.

"Join me." I told her.

She shook her head.

"Nah.. I'll just eat downstairs. This is really for you."

"Please..." I said in a pleading look. I can't ear and just let her stare at ne. It would be awkward.
