Lisa saw what was happening. She took a deep breath, walked over and said, "Alright, if this is the case, I will put it out there. The culprit who hit my brother had something going on in his family. You probably didn't know that I was going to sue them, but the lawyer said there's no need anymore. The culprit was taken away by the Ministry of Transportation. His high-profile parents were detained and are being investigated by the Ministry of Finance. I don't need to sue anymore."

"So?" Jungkook asked, looking at Lisa intently.

"I don't believe this was a coincidence or karma. I think someone had their hands behind all this. I can't think of anyone other than you."

"If you already made up your mind and think it was me, then why bother asking? Don't you already have your answer?"

"I just want to hear you say it." Lisa was getting a little emotional.

"Yes, I asked someone to do it. Isn't it better this way? Otherwise, you wouldn't win the case. Do you know how ridiculous you are?" With his head down, Jungkook took a lighter out from his pocket and fiddled with it in his hands.

"I know it's ridiculous and I know you did this for my own good. But Mr. Jungkook, in the future would you please give me a heads-up before you do nice things for me? I prepared all the materials for the lawsuit like an idiot."

Jungkook slowly lifted his head and glared at Lisa, "I thought you would be happy that I did this."

"You didn't do anything wrong. Those people deserved it, but I have the right to know what's going on. I don't want to be like an ignorant child, and you don't need to pretend to be my savior, okay? You can't save me. You couldn't save me seven years ago, and you can't now either." After she finished talking and before Jungkook could say anything, Lisa turned around and went upstairs, leaving him no chance to open his mouth and respond.

Looking at that delicate figure from behind, Jungkook's eyes filled with loneliness…

Then he thought aloud to himself, "Doll, I just thought, if the world lacks justice, I will become the justice you need."

Unfortunately, Lisa didn't hear this…

In fact, the relationship between two people can be very complicated. People have different personalities, and therefore misunderstandings occur frequently.

There are some words that if left unsaid, one wouldn't understand.

There are some words that even if said, one still wouldn't understand.

There are also words that even unsaid, one would still understand.

Jungkook thought that he could make that decision by himself for Lisa's good, but Lisa thought like she had been left in the dark.

His actions hurt her self-esteem.

Lisa went to her room but couldn't sleep the entire night. She wasn't in a good mood either.

The next morning, she got up at 6 AM for work to avoid seeing Jungkook.

But she still bumped into him in the living room.

"You're up early." Jungkook was in a white shirt, holding two glasses of milk in his hands.

"Yeah," she said, clearly trying to breeze past him.
