***********

On the top floor of his empire, on Jungkook's desktop, was the recently ended stream.

The public relations manager who stood beside him spoke up., "We have already reached an agreement with the streaming platform. In the future, even if someone livestreams their feces in Miss Lisa's stream room, they'll keep her stream up."

"What?" Jungkook said. "That's too much. I'm just looking out for those naysaying trolls."

The public relations manager nodded. "Don't worry, we'll take care of them. Do you want to ban any of the bad comments?"

Jungkook shook his head. He was quite curious to see what kind of method this woman would use to restore her reputation in the entertainment industry.

Within half an hour after Lisa's live broadcast : [Lisa's shuts haters down with a live acappella.], [Lisa is a millionaire.], [How did Lisa do it?] were all on the hot search, and they remained high on the list.

At first, the internet had jumped to Nancy's defense, but now, the tide had changed to Lisa's side.

Meanwhile, Lisa was busy working on a flowchart. She had organized her thoughts about the novel's plot and arranged it in chronological order.

According to the timeline in her memory, Jennie's incident should have happened recently.

The certain elite who was preying upon Jennie seemed to have some relationship with Mingyu. They had a joint venture abroad.

Lisa frowned as she looked at the information on the tablet. There was nothing unusual about his foreign company, but Lisa still sensed something amiss.

Just as she was about to continue reading, a man's voice rang out beside her. "What are you looking at?"

"D'Corporeal?" Jungkook frowned. Wasn't Mingyu one of the founders of this group?

Why was this woman still looking into Mingyu's affairs?

In an instant, Jungkook's face darkened.

"There's something off about this company. There's this nagging feeling my gut." Lisa did not notice the man's dark face.

Jungkook asked, "Something off? I didn't know you were interested in finance. Tell me, what's off?"

Lisa pointed at the content on the paper with a serious face. "Look, they have very few sponsors. Their main business is labor dispatch and outsourcing, but they don't have any labor dispatch agencies, nor do they have any records of cooperation with other companies. This company seems to be a shell company."

Lisa's family used to run a huge business. Although her passion lay elsewhere, she knew enough to analyze the situation.

Jungkook's expression softened. "Where is this company located at?"

"At the border of M-Country. What's wrong?"

When the woman's eyes widened as she looked at him, Jungkook felt smug. He reached out and touched Lisa's hair, saying something that he would never expect himself to say. "Kiss me and I'll tell you."

[👀]

Lisa's face turned red.

It had only been a few days, and this man had become so bold.

She turned her head away. "I don't want to. Hurry up and take a shower. I don't want to kiss you before you take a shower."

Jungkook laughed, stood up, and walked into the bathroom.

Lisa continued working. She searched for information about the border of M-Country on her tablet.

It was a territory that could be reached without a passport or visa. There were refugees and shameless opportunists everywhere, and there were also many occurrences of drug and human trafficking.

Wasn't Mingyu handling this company? Was he involved in such transactions?

Lisa slowly lay on the bed and yawned.

It had been a rather eventful day. Lisa was a little tired. She felt her eyelids fighting hard to close.

Soon, she succumbed to her fatigue.

After Jungkook came out of the bathroom, he saw the woman lying on the bed.

His heart melted.

Had this woman really thought things through? Was she willing to be with him?

He turned over to the bed and took the iPad from Lisa's hand.

The screen lit up, showing information about the M-Country border.

Lisa had circled around terms like human trafficking and drugs.

Was she worried that Mingyu would go astray?

[ Don't overthink 🤦🏻‍♀️ ]

Jungkook put the iPad on the bedside table, turned around, and lay down in the direction of the wall.

Was this just a show, and did she actually want to return to that man's side?

It irked him to no end.
