Contract Lover - L.K Adaptation

Chapter 146 - She knew She's in Love with Mu Jungkook, She just missed the Chance to Tell It to Him. (2)

Looking at the infuriated Mu Sehun, Xu Lisa
only felt that she was looking at a beast who had lost control of itself. She sneered and she wasn't afraid of him at all. In fact, she said to him calmly, "You asked me why I stand by Mu Jungkook all the way. Truth be told, I don't know either. At the beginning, I just wanted to carry out the contract like I was paid to do, then I can go off with my money. I ended up with an engagement ring. It's sort of like a transformation.... that's the way that many things are in life. If it's meant to be, you can't avoid it. If it isn't look at the way you and Wang Lia had fought for it, all your effort was still moot."

"Hahahaha. I guess you had fallen in love with him
and got yourself dragged into this." Mu Sehun let go
of her and returned to the expression that he was
in control of it all. "Xu Lisa, I feel bad for you. If
all you like is money and just wanted the lifestyle of
being rich, we make a good couple. The entire Mu's
could belong to us. I had even thought about that you
are pretty enough that I can take you out to places. I
can totally afford to keep you as Mrs. Mu. Then you can look for lovers on the side as could I. It will be a symbiotic relationship. Wouldn't that be nice? But no, you have to go and fall in love with that brother of mine."

Xu Lisa stretched the corners of her mouth and
smiled in resignation.

What she regretted about wasn't the fact that she had fallen in love with Mu Jungkook,but that she just found out that she had fallen in love with him and hadn't has a chance to tell him.

That moment, Mu Sehun's cellphone rang. By now, he
didn't care about avoiding Xu Lisa anymore and
picked up the phone right in front of her.

Xu Lisa had good hearing and she could hear
what the person on the other end was saying.

"Old Man Mu had made his move. I just caught wind
from our buddies inside that said that there was an
outbreak at Wang Lia's prison during exercise
time and she was stabbed accidentally. But
saw that she had many wounds and bruises on her
body. She was probably tortured beforehand. In
fact, it was possible that she didn't die from the stab
wound. That could have been added later."

Mu Sehun mumbled a "mmm" lowly. He was awfully
calm when he listened to person over the call as
though it was his birth mother than was being
discussed but some random woman.

"Xu Lisa... hahahaha. Did you hear that? Mu Jiyong had my mother killed." His face was twisted
from the gloomy smile and his eyes were as dark
as they could be. "That's woman for you. She was
too soft. All these years being next to Mu Jiyong, she
had a million chances to take care of him and take
his money. Yet, she was being an idiot and insisted on
staying by the man's side. She felt that she'd have
someone to rely on that way. Then what? She ended
up losing her life over it. Sadly, my poor mother
probably didn't even know what she died of. She must think that the order was given by Mu Jungkook."

Walking over to Xu Lisa, he bent down and looked
into her eyes at her level. "That's what I am telling
you, Xu Lisa. You should never rely on a man. If
you don't pull yourself out soon enough, you will end
up the same way as her."

Xu Lisa looked back at him fearlessly. "Don't
worry. That won't happen to me. Mu Jungkook is not the same as Mu Jiyong. And I am no Wang Lia."

"HAHAHAHA. Right, right, right." Mu Sehun lowered
his head, pulled out his cellphone and dialed a video
chat request. It didn't take long for the other end to
pick up. Xu Lisa could clearly see Mu Jungkook's
face appearing on Mu Sehun's screen.
