Lalisa took a deep breath. As long as she used this email box to send an email to the management of Empire Group, she could placate its shareholders and buy time to prepare herself enough to become Lalisa again and bring those people to justice!

With this thought in mind, Lalisa began to edit the email, and then clicked send to group.

After sending the email, Lalisa immediately turned on the all-purpose skill gifted by 008. “008, I need to use hacking skills.”

Suddenly, Lalisa’s fingers began to quickly tap on the keyboard automatically as if enchanted and green codes appeared on the screen. Staring at the screen and tapping away with both hands, Lalisa soon positioned herself on a small island in North America.

After finishing this series of things, she took a deep breath, picked up her earphones, tapped her fingers on the keyboard, and then dialed a phone number. After a long time passed, the other side picked up the phone, and then a hoarse and cold voice rang out. “Jeon Jungkook…”

The moment Lalisa heard Jungkook’s voice, she couldn’t utter a single word as if her throat was caught by somebody’s hand. He must have known the news of her death.

“Speak!” Although he sounded cold, she could feel the despair in his tone.

Lalisa opened her mouth wide so that she could breathe unimpeded. She took several breaths to ease her emotions. ‘Jungkook, don’t be sad. I’m still around you.’

“Speak!” Jungkook’s voice rang out again. He didn’t hang up the phone. Normally, he would have done so, but he was still holding onto the phone right now for some reason. “Who is it?”

A sobbing voice came from the other side of the call, and Jungkook sat upright in an instant. He took his mobile phone and looked at the caller ID only to find it was an unknown caller. He put the phone to his ear again and lowered his voice, asking, “Who is it?”

Hearing Jungkook’s careful voice, Lalisa couldn’t help crying out loud. ‘Jungkook, please don’t be sad! Do you know that you sound so desperate? My heart is aching for you!’

“Lalisa?” Jungkook asked in a trembling voice. He couldn’t bring himself to believe that the person on the other side of the phone was Lalisa, but he had a hunch and a sense of surprise coming from his head. Was it really Lalisa? He stared at his scarred hands and asked, “Is it Lalisa?”

Lalisa moved her lips, but she couldn’t utter a word. She abruptly hung up the phone and refused to listen to Jungkook’s voice again. She stared at the computer and kept saying “I’m sorry”. She slowly squatted down and leaned against the corner of the desk. Tears kept running down from her eye, and she had to bite her hand, trying not to cry out loud.

‘Jungkook, I’m sorry. I dare not tell you that I’m still alive. I’m sorry I dare not tell you that your Lalisa has become another person. I’m sorry, you’re right here for me, but I dare not come along and tell you who I am.’

Since the time when she woke up, she had just wanted to adapt herself to the situation. She always thought herself as the strongest person around and that she wouldn’t ever cry. But this was the first time that she cried for the death of her former self.

She wondered if he would believe her if he was told something as bizarre as her transmigrating from Lalisa to Lisa.

So she dared not tell him. She was afraid to hear vicious words of disbelief from Jungkook’s mouth.

But she didn’t want to see Jungkook lose the hope to live either.

Thinking of this, Lalisa stood up, opened the email box again and sent an email to Jungkook. She edited it for several times before finally sending it out.
