“Miss Lee, I really wasn’t trying to fool you. This isn’t my fault,” Mark explained pitifully.

“Is it my fault, then?”

It was our Boss who refused to let him go. As his second-in-command, there was nothing I could have done. Although he felt extremely bitter about this, his boss had instructed him to shoulder this wrongdoing.

Thus, Mark could only reply. “We’re both not in the wrong.”

Lisa understood that Mark did not possess any reasons to keep Wang Liangping away from her.

It was likely that someone else had interfered with this matter behind the scenes.

In her previous life, she recalled overhearing Jungkook’s subordinates mentioning the Hei Xiao organisation.

Now that she thought about it, she felt it was likely that the subordinates were reporting Hei Xiao’s matters to Jungkook and carrying out his instructions.

Hei Xiao’s members had a frightening reputation and were famous for only obeying their first-in-command. They were loyal to no other.

In other words, the leader behind Hei Xiao had to be Jungkook!

He must have found out about Sehun’s feelings for her despite their relationship as adopted siblings.

He tended to become jealous easily. It was possible that he was controlling the matter to prevent Sehun’s crimes from being investigated. This was because the moment Sehun was proven to be innocent, Jungkook would gain another love rival.

Jungkook was cold, ruthless and decisive. He rarely changed his mind when it came to the matters he had already decided on.

If she fought with him about this matter, he would only believe that she had very strong feelings for her adopted brother. The consequences would then worsen.

Currently, though her brother’s case was delayed, it seemed like Jungkook was still willing to let go of Wang Liangping. The result was not as bad as it could have been.

Lisa deliberated over this and decided not to pursue the matter any longer. “Since you’ve caught him, when will you hand him over?”

“I’m abroad right now. I was planning on returning today, but I’m suddenly being pursued for revenge. Give me a few days. After I kill these people, I’ll immediately return to the country and hand him over to you.” Mark lifted his phone and showed her the hotel room he was in. “I can hear their footsteps. They’re on their way here right now!”

Indeed. A moment later, with a loud crash, the hotel room was kicked open. Several men dressed in black suits and masks then rushed into the room, firing their guns at him.

Mark kicked the bed forward to block the bullets and climbed out of the window. He then snuck his way into the room next door. “Miss Lee, they are pursuing me. I’ll have to end the call here. See you when I’m back!”

Lisa stared at her phone in silence for several seconds.

Given that his life was at stake, she would give him some time.

She could remain patient for several more days.

She glanced at the middle-aged man in the room. “Your second-in-command is being pursued. Aren’t you going to help him?”

“He said that he could handle this alone.”

Lisa shrugged carelessly and left the unassuming ‘private home’.

She walked down the street and enjoyed the cool breeze.

She had been especially busy for the past few days. Why did it seem like she had forgotten about something?

Oh yes, it was Tzuyu.

Based on her memories, Tzuyu was supposed to meet a man named Yook Sungjae recently. He would trick her into his bed and force her to have an abortion… a series of misfortune would begin right from her school life.

Tzuyu treated her very well. Lisa refused to allow the same misfortunes to happen to her again in this life.

She immediately sent a voice message to Tzuyu:

[My dear, where are you? Why have you been skipping your classes recently? You haven’t contacted me much either.]

Tzuyu responded with a phone call. She sounded both apologetic and joyful. “Lisa, I’m so sorry. I recently fell in love and forgot all about my dear friend. I deserve to die.”
