Married to the villain

Chapter 19: Explaining oneself

*****

Eunha relied on Lisa's trust in her, and boldly owned up to her actions. Therefore, before the Tian family, in spite of all their haste, failed to find a lawyer and get to work, the police had already found the records of her purchase of listening devices, micro surveillance cameras, and weight detectors. The case was closed, and the next step was for the police to interrogate her and find out her motive for committing the crime.

After Lisa received the response from the police, she happily swung her little feet and waited for Alice to feed her afternoon tea.

She saw Jungkook calmly sitting on the sofa. He was dealing with work. She asked him curiously, "If you're so busy, you can actually go back to the company. You don't have to stay here with me."

When Jungkook didn't respond, she automatically added, "Don't worry, I won't run."

Jungkook put away the tablet and squinted his eyes to size her up from head to toe a few times, before asking the question that had almost taken up permanent residence in his mind. " Lisa, which one is the real you?"

Was she the one who had been so dissatisfied with him that she wanted to divorce him by jumping off a building? Or was she the one acting all cute and coy in front of him? Or was she the one pretending to be a victim in front of the police in order to send her best friend behind bars?

Having viewed Lisa's many faces, Jungkook suddenly became uncertain. Who was she? Did he really understand her? Which side of her did he love?

Lisa met his suspicious gaze. She turned serious. "If I told you that I was possessed by someone before, and now my primordial spirit has returned to its original position, would you believe me?"

Jungkook picked up his phone and called Eunwoo. "About the shrink. Ask him if he can push forward the appointment."

Lisa quickly stopped him. "Okay, I'll be honest. There are multiple personalities living in my body. They often come out to take over the body, so every face you see is a part of me."

Jungkook spoke into the phone, "Bring it forward to tomorrow. No, it's best if it's tonight."

Lisa leaned on the sofa and pretended to cry. "You don't believe me! You think I'm sick! You're too much!"

When he saw how dramatic she was, Jungkook took a deep breath. "As long as your excuse is more reliable, I can give you the benefit of the doubt."

Lisa, who was in the middle of shedding more crocodile tears, stopped crying and sighed slightly in her heart. She was clearly telling the truth, and Jungkook was simply being rational.

"Alright, I'll find a more reasonable excuse." Lis stopped pretending to cry and got up from the sofa. She touched her chin with her finger and looked at Jungkook. "Actually, every person you see is me. Of course, it's also possible that none of them are completely me. After all, I'm a female star who aspires to be a movie queen."

Jungkook stared at her for a few seconds, and Lisa graciously let him look. She even twisted her waist and threw him a very feminine wink.

Jungkook froze for a moment and looked away stiffly. "If you're that great of an actress, there wouldn't be so many people online mocking you for 'cerebral palsy acting'." His tone was a little playful. "Movie queen?"

When Lisa thought of how the original Lisa performed in the book, she felt a little disgusted.

A talent scout had approached her sorely for her face. With absolutely no training or experience, she was stuffed into a talent show. Because of her outstanding appearance, she attracted a wave of fans, so even if she was bad at singing and dancing, she still ended up in a high position.

However, in the entertainment industry, in order to maintain long-term popularity, ability was the supreme foundation. Unfortunately, original Lisa lacked precisely this. She could not sing and dance, and her acting was atrocious. The management company she signed with had no longterm plans for her. They only wanted to make the most money in the shortest time possible, so they arranged for her to feature in several low-quality dramas, hoping to ride upon her viral wave. Her acting skills were so bad that it made her stand out among the industry. She became an infamous meme.

Amid all the pressure, the original Lisa lost her mind. When she could not get Mingyu, she realized that he had fallen in love with Nancy.
