"This search is not correct!" Lisa said anxiously.

"Will you please search again? "

"Enough!" Jungkook gloomily swept his eyes over Xiaonian, his voice angry. "I don't want to listen to this nonsense in the morning. Let's have breakfast."

"But..."

"No buts." Jungkook rose from his seat and grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her towards him. When she was pulled into him, he bent his face down until his lips almost touched hers, "Lisa Kim, there is no substantive evidence to support your silly claims, so stop talking nonsense."

"...."

"Understood?" Jungkook bit her upper lip until she flinched in pain.

When Lisa did not say anything, he frowned in displeasure, "Well?"

"...I'll make the breakfast."

She was weak in front of him.

"That's better." Jungkook hooked his lips in a smile and watched her leave. Turning towards his housekeeper, he said, "Yoo, arrange a meeting two hours later at the head quarters to discuss the acquisition of Long Tai. If I don't get any useful suggestions, they can consider themselves fired."

"Yes young master."

Butler Yoo lowered his head and turned to leave the room. As he was leaving he couldn't help but turn his head in the direction where Lisa left, his eyes were clouded with sympathy. Although the young master was prone to violence, he was averse to touching people. But with her, his master was almost inseparable. It was like he could only stay calm with her by his side.

Was it a good thing?

After breakfast, Jungkook left with his guards, leaving behind Lisa to unpack her things while ruminating over the Baja cruise incident.

As long as she found Eunbi Jung, a university student who was working with her at that time, it would help her to prove her innocence. She shared a room with her on Baja and that person can vouch that she stayed inside their room all through out the night.

However, she lost contacts with almost all of her college classmates and at present she had no information or contacts of them.

How can she find Eunbi?

Can she ask Jungkook for help? May be he would want to know the truth as much and would be willing?

She immediately shook her head at that ridiculous idea. How can he help her when he so firmly believes that she was the culprit.

What can she do now?

Lisa was getting upset at the lack of her options and could not help but sigh. As she was trying to think of ways to get hold of Eunbi's contact, her phone notification sound rang. When she picked up the phone, the screen displayed a strange number, Butler Yoo?

The message from butler Yoo requested her to buy dishes from a nearby porcelain store?

Was it Jungkook who asked him to message her? With his character, he most probably ordered her and the kind butler was too nice to phrase it so in the message.

But, dishes?

She remembered his criticism about her cutlery in her apartment. He really was uptight about something as mundane as cutlery.

How annoying.

Grumbling about this rich person's weird eccentricities, she changed into her street wear she pulled out from one of the boxes and headed out after picking up her wallet and some change.
