Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 5

860.Sowing Discord

Mingyu had been unbelievably angered and upset by this.

...

However, he could only maintain a smile whenever he saw Jungkook.

Huang Zhishu glanced at her son's frustrated expression. She was just as angered as he was.

However, they could only endure it.

Her son's Ming Yu Corporation had gone bankrupt. Her daughter, Nancy, had also been exposed for pretending to be the Brushweiler Group's heiress.

As of today, their only hope was to regain power by taking over the Jeon family.

They would have to endure for a little longer. Although Jungkook and Lisa had made it home alive, they did not have much longer to live!

Huang Zhishu approach Lisa's side and greeted her with a smile. "Lisa, are you taking a stroll?"

"Can't you see with your eyes? What's the point in asking?" Lisa did not have any fondness for this woman.

She had raised a vicious and hypocritical daughter like Nancy and that revealed a lot about her character.

Huang Zhishu put on a disappointed expression. "Lisa, I have never offended you. Why do you always show me such a bad attitude?"

"Do you dare to say that you never knew Nancy was pretending to be me to take over the Brushweiler family's business?"

"I really didn't know about it." Huang Zhishu's demeanor appeared to be especially soft. "I'm just Nancy's adopted mother. She has always had some unhappiness towards me. I really didn't know that she was lying. If I had known, I definitely would have stopped her."

"Is that so?" Lisa smiled coldly. It was clear she did not believe in her.

Nancy appeared weak and gentle on the surface but was in fact full of schemes. In that sense, she was completely identical to this woman.

Lisa refused to believe that this old woman was unaware of her daughter's schemes.

Huang Zhishu looked apologetic. "Lisa, I'm really sorry. I'll apologize to you on Nancy's behalf..."

"There's no need. She arranged for my father's nurse, Liang Zhen to be murdered. She also played a role in Auntie Qiu's death. Right after, she even dared to attempt to murder my grandfather and father. As of today, she is already blind and paralysed. All she has to do is wait for death. She will pay for her actions. There is no need for your apology." Lisa appeared indifferent.

Huang Zhishu hurriedly changed the topic. "Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm just her adopted mother."

She was intentionally declaring that she was unrelated to Nancy.

Lisa did not pay her any heed. She saw that Elder Jeon Chongshan was practicing Tai Chi on the man-made grass field ahead. She approached him. "Grandfather."

Elder Jeon nodded as he continued to run through each move...

His posture was accurate and his concentration was sharp. Combined with his gray mustache, he appeared just like a capable master.

After completing the last move, Jeon Chongshan reached for the towel which a maid was offering. "Lisa, do you want to practice Tai Chi with Grandfather?"

"Dad, that might not be a good idea." Huang Zhishu rushed to say. "It's been quite some time since Lisa married Jungkook. Although they went missing for a while, they were together the entire time. If Lisa happens to be pregnant, practicing Tai Chi may be harmful."

Lisa glanced at Huang Zhishu in annoyance. This old woman was saying this intentionally.

Half a month ago, when she first returned to the Jeon home, the elders had been worried for the two of them and called for doctors to give them a check-up.

At the time, she was not pregnant.

This old woman clearly knew that she wasn't pregnant, yet she brought this up. She was trying to criticize her for failing to 'lay any eggs'.

"That's true." Jeon Chongshan stroked his mustache and glanced towards Lisa's flat stomach. "Lisa ah, you have to hurry and give me a great-grandson.. Grandfather is getting old. I may not be around for too long..."
