Hearing Jungkook’s name, Irene’s hand that was holding the bag stiffened, and she instinctively raised her head.

Not far away, Jungkook was sitting in a wheelchair. His back was straight, and even if his legs were crippled, it still could not damage his handsome and noble temperament.

The girls shopping with her were chattering away. Everyone’s faces were filled with excitement and gloating.

Ever since Jungkook took over the Jeon Corporation, he doubled the corporation’s assets in just a few years and became a colossus in the business world. As the new powerhouse in the business world, Jungkook established a firm foothold in the upper-class society. He became President Jeon, one whom no one dared to offend.

If it weren’t for the fact that he crippled his legs a while ago and was so depressed that he locked himself at home and did not care about company matters, her brother Bae Chanyeol would not have had the chance to take over the Jeon Corporation.

Chanyeol and Irene were siblings, and their mother was Jungkook’s aunt.

Now that Chanyeol was the acting CEO of the Jeon Corporation, she now could flaunt around her friends and buy whatever she wanted.

She liked her current life and didn’t want anyone to ruin it.

A hint of viciousness flashed across Irene’s face, which was plastered with exquisite makeup. She put down the bag in her hand and pushed the sales clerk away. She took a few steps forward to greet the person who was walking over. “Cousin, long time no see.”

Her face was full of smiles as if she was very happy to see him here.

Jungkook looked at her expressionlessly.

“Cousin, how have you been? You refused to see anyone for a long time, so I didn’t even have a chance to go to the Ji family’s villa to see you.” Irene’s face was full of pretense as she probed, “Now that I see that you look good, I’m relieved. How about coming to my house for dinner someday? My mother had been worried about your health, so worried that she couldn’t even eat.”

She said a lot, but Jungkook acted as if he did not hear her and did not say a word.

When the other girls who were shopping with Irene saw this, they looked at each other and could not help but whisper to each other, their eyes full of mockery.

“Cousin!”

Irene felt embarrassed and stomped her feet angrily. “Did you hear what I said?”

When he was healthy, he always had a condescending look on his face. Now that he was crippled, what right did he have to be condescending?

He was just a cripple. She took the initiative to speak to him because she thought highly of him!

Jungkook’s slender fingers tapped lightly on his wheelchair. His dark eyes stared at Irene. “Is this what the Bae family taught you? Where are your manners? In the pacific ocean?”

“What?” Irene did not understand him.

“This is your cousin-in-law.” Jungkook raised his chin. “If you are blind, hurry up and get it treated. If the Bae family doesn’t want to give you money for treatment, the Jeon family can still afford it.”

This was an indirect reminder for her to greet Lisa.

Irene’s expression changed again and again. She angrily raised her head to look at the woman who was holding the wheelchair handle. Her long ink-like hair naturally fell on both sides of her cheeks. Her palm-sized face was exquisite, and her figure was graceful. Lisa was casually leaning against the wheelchair. However, even such a simple gesture could make people feel that she was absolutely gorgeous.

Irene’s mind went blank for a moment.

This was the Lisa that her mother said who grew up in a poor area overseas, lived with her grandmother, couldn’t afford to go to school, and hung out with thugs every day? This was the daughter that the Lee family abandoned at birth?

She inexplicably recalled the news report she read when Lisa and Jungkook appeared in the mall last time.

[Mrs. Jeon’s looks are heaven-defying. She and President Jeon are a perfect match!]

How could this woman be like this?

She should be rude, ugly, and mediocre! How could she be like this!

Irene couldn’t contain her anger.

“Either you greet her, or get lost.”

Sensing the malice in her eyes, Jungkook’s face darkened, and his pitch-black eyes turned cold.

The Bae family was getting too involved in his personal life and too controlling.

“Hello, cousin-in-law.”

Kungfu accumulated his power for a long time. So now, even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he was just as intimidating. When he spoke, Irene’s legs and stomach still trembled with fear. This was a fear that was engraved in her bones.

She resisted the coldness emitting from Jungkook’s body and greeted Lisa in a low voice, “Cousin-in-law, I’m Bae Irene. My mother is cousin Jungkook’s biological aunt.”

Lisa naturally sensed the hostility coming from Irene. She had no intention of interacting with such people. She just nodded her head casually in response to her introduction..
