SECRET MARRIAGE - Book 1 [LK Adaptation]

53

Yu Rushi tried calling Lalisa many times but she failed. Looking at her husband she sighed, "She not picking up her phone."

"Keep calling." he ordered.

Meanwhile at the lake house,

Jungkook and Lisa were eating their lunch peacefully. Lalisa was extremely happy as she enjoyed her food looking at her beautiful surrounding.

"Thank you for bringing me here.... " she thanked Jungkook in gratitude.

"Do you like it? " he asked to which Lalisa nodded, "I love it. This is the most beautiful place I have ever seen in my life."

Seeing her happy, he was glad. "Then, next time if you want to come here, just tell me. I'll bring you here."

Lalisa's eyes lit up as she excitedly asked, "Really? "

"Hmm..." he nodded sincerely. What he didn't tell her was that this place was already under her name. She was the owner of this place and it would be his wedding gift to her.

Finishing their lunch, Lalisa got up to look around the house. It was a beautiful house which had a rustic design to it.Enthusiastically, she entered every room of the house while Jungkook followed her obediently.

"Jungkook where is this place? " she asked curiously.

"It is built on one of the Jeon's property." he replied with a smile looking at their hands. Lalisa didn't realise that she was holding his hand.

"Oh! " she nodded.

She had fell in love with this place. At this moment, she had already decided in her heart that one day she was going to have a house like this.

A place which she could call her home....

A place where she would live with her loved ones. Her family....

Walking towards the garden, she ran her fingers over the lilies. "Does someone in your family love lilies?" she asked curiously.

"Yeah.... Someone who is very special to me." Jungkook replied looking at her. Lalisa wanted to ask him about that special person but she didn't. It was not her place to ask him something personal.

But for some reason she felt jealous. She envied that special person that Jungkook was talking about. She envied her because she had such a beautiful place to herself.

"Won't that special person be angry at you for bringing me here?" she asked.

"No, she won't." After all she standing right beside me...

Lying down in the meadow, with all the lilies surroundings her she had a satisfied smile on her face. Looking at her mesmerizing smile, Jungkook quietly lied down beside her.

Closing her eyes, Lalisa smiled as if she was trying to capture this place in to her soul. Here, there was no fights, no revenge, no backstabbing.... She only felt peace.

"Lisa do you like Chen Sehun?" Jungkook asked suddenly. She was so startled that she didn't know what to reply.

She turned her head sideways to see Jungkook staring at her intently. Seeing his fierce gaze on her, her heartbeat quickened. Composing herself she smiling awkwardly, " He's Li Yeri's boyfriend, why would I love him?"

"After what he has done to you, do you still love him? In your heart, is there still a place for him? If one day he comes back to you, would you accept him? Would you still forgive him Lisa?"

Lalisa's heart thumped as a complicated look appeared on her face. Narrowing her eyes at him she asked, "I don't understand what CEO Jeon means?"

Hearing her, calling him so formally he was displeased. But no matter what he had to ask her. He had to know what she would do if one day that scum comes back to her.

"I know everything about you Lisa.... " he said looking in her eyes. He wanted to show her his love, his sincerity to her. He wanted to show her, how much he cared for her.

Lalisa immediate sat straight without looking at his. Her eyes were away downwards as she shivered. What does he mean by that? What does he know?

"W-what do you know?" she stammered.

"Everthing related to you. About your birth, about that despicable Li family, about that scum boyfriend and how you live for over all these years in the Li family."

Her eyes widened and she trembled a little. Nobody knew about that. She knew that the Li family had hid her so perfectly that even her real parents couldn't find her.

Then, how does he know? Does he know about my rebirth too? Frightened at that thought, Lalisa looked at him, "W-what else? What else do you know about me?"

The fear in her eyes was very evident. He wanted to hug her and assure her that she was not alone. He wanted to tell her that she has him but he couldn't.

"I only knew this much." he replied honestly.

Seeing the honesty in his eyes, she heaved a sigh in relief. It's good that he doesn't know anything about my rebirth but how does he know about everything else.

"Did you investigate me? How do you know so much about me?"

"Umm.. Yes I investigated you. You work with Hu Eunwoo and he's my best friend so I had to do this." he half lied.

He knew she was already dealing with her heartache and despicable family ,so he didn't wanted to add in on her pain. He didn't want to scare her.

He wondered if he told her the truth, would she run away from him?
