"It is him!" Someone else said excitedly.

The relatively calm place now erupted into chatters as people turned around one after the other to take a look at one of the richest man in the world.

"Excellent! Jeon Jungkook actually came to King family's wedding. Quickly, capture this!" The photographer at the side immediately abandoned the stage and focused towards the door.

He was not the only one. Other reports who were here to cover the wedding quickly shifted their focus too. Jeon Jungkook, although popular, rarely appeared in these circles. Catching a glimpse of him was beyond imagination for a lot of people in attendance today. So, it was a one in a million chance for them to capture him on camera.

Lisa froze as she heard the name and blankly turned around and immediately saw several bodyguards wearing black suits and few armed body guards in the back following them. They separated the reporters from Jungkook and seriously checked anyone who tried to come closer.

He was there, right in the middle of them. His tall figure and his handsome face stood out among the crowd. He was meticulously dressed in a gray suit and a dark shirt and looked as if he couldn't just bothered to be here or give anyone a second of his time.

"...."

Lisa was dumbstruck.

Why was he attending Jennie's wedding?

She suddenly remembered the disjointed conversation she heard between butler Yoo and him. Were they talking about this wedding?

Her first reaction was to turn around fast and sit down to prevent him from seeing her.

She definitely cannot let him see her.

He never stuck by the rules of society and with his temperament, it was highly possible that he would reveal the relationship between them as soon as he saw her.

Although she gave up on trying to change the relationship between them, she still cared about her self esteem and refused to let Jungkook mar it before these people.

Hye Eun, who was also excitedly watching Jungkook's entry, felt Lisa sitting down abruptly and couldn't help but ask, "What happened? Are you alright?"

"I...I'm okay".

Lisa couldn't help but look back nervously.

She saw him stand in the middle of body guards. The man who looked as if he didn't want to be there suddenly looked up and straight in her direction.

As soon as their eyes locked, the bored look in his eyes dissipated and the corners of his lips hooked up in a smile as if he just found his prey.

"....."

Lisa was shocked.

Suddenly, Jungkook strode towards her and the people around look at him in surprise. They wanted to know who he was going to meet!

"Mom, I want to go to the bathroom, I'll leave first." Lisa quickly gave Hye Eun an excuse and quickly escaped to the door not far away.

No way.

She cannot be seen here with Jeon Jungkook.

When Lisa ran quickly into the corridor, she heard footsteps not very far away from her. She cannot be sure if it wasn't Jungkook.

In desperation, she grabbed the nearest door and rushed in and locked it as an extra measure.

Her heart beat wildly.

She never expected to meet him at an event like this! Did he not tell butler Yoo that he didn't want to attend?

"Lisa?"
