"It was my fault four years ago. I should  never have listened to Tzuyu's nonsense.  Lili we grew up together there's no one who understands you more than I do, and I believe that's the same for you....I really missed our days in schools"

Even as Kim Mingyu spoke, he was looking at Lisa longingly as he tugged at his own sleeve nervously. "Actually, over the last four years....I....I kept thinking about you. I know we can't be together now, but that's not important....the only thing that matters is that I hold you in my heart! Lili, I know you're very hurt and you couldn't forget about me your entire life....but I still want to tell you...."

Taking a deep breath, he looked at her tearfully. "My arms are waiting for you always"

Lisa stared back into his longing and earnest eyes, feeling nothing inside apart from an urge to laugh.

Did he think he was trying to coax a child?

Lisa would certainly have been moved and tearful if Mingyu told her those things four years ago, even falling for him completely.

But now, she was a mother and had long since lost her innocence.

She sighed inwardly. 

Fate was a curious thing.

A person might not be your destined just because the fates had allowed you to meet them.

It was ironic in retrospect how she once believed Mingyu was her destiny.

Even if time could be turned back to four years ago, she definitely would not have feelings for him.

"You're a funny one, Mister Kim" Lisa mocked coolly, "Perhaps you had assumed that this is a longue? My time is precious, and I'm not here to listen to your remorse. It's useless, you should castrate yourself, understand?"

Anyone who has bones in their body can bow. It showed no sincerity at all.

If you have to do something, do what others couldn't only then does it count.

Meanwhile, Mingyu, who had played the act of a sentimental man had assumed that Lisa would have more or less be moved even if she was a stone.

Still, his face turned green at the word 'castrate' and his mood instantly exploded.

He would no longer stick to the script he had prepared before coming here because he thought that he had been sincere enough.

Even so, Lisa was not buying it. She doesn't know what's good for herself!

"Lili, don't you know that you're being unpleasant?" His gritted his teeth, his breaths turning rapid in his rage.

"Unpleasant?" Lisa smiled politely. "Mister Kim, you should know that not all things in this world can be forgiven"

Mingyu held back the rage threatening to escape his lips. "I know that I was wrong, and I have been punished as I should be. What more do you want?"

"What punishment?" Lisa played dumb, blinking innocently. "Weren't you suppose to inherit Kim Group? Living in such comfort, where's the punishment?"

"Actually, Kim Group...." Mingyu was about to reveal the truth, but he swallowed his words because his ego did not allow him to be embarrassed.

"What happened to Kim Group?"

"Nothing...." Mingyu shifted his gaze, and suddenly his phone suddenly started to ring.

He quickly took it out of his pocket, his face going white when he saw the screen.

"Lili, I'll see you some other day"

With that, he quickly got to his feet and fled in panic, entering the toilet and locking the door before receiving the call.

"Mingyu, where the hell have you been" the caller roared.

Mingyu's attitude had changed drastically and he was smiling apologetically. "Bro, Please clam down. I'm trying to get the money for you"

However, bro Dong shot back, "You tricked me every time! I'm telling you this is your last chance, and you know what will happen if you still can't pay up!"

With that, Bro Dong hung up.

Kim Mingyu clenched his phone, his eyes welling with overwhelming hate.

Would he have been so miserable if Kim Group didn't go bankrupt?
