To My Dear Lalisa Manoban [JENLISA] (1)

346-350

Jun Ji-hyun had flung that slap extremely hard. Even after that, she thought it was not hard enough.

"Who do you think you are? Huh?" Jun Ji-hyun didn't have the poise that Jennie displayed.

She grabbed hold of Hye-Jun without hesitation. Her gaze had never been so grim. "Who are you to scold my daughter? Where are your manners? Did your parents teach you to act like this?"

"You..." Hye-Jun's face was still in pain She couldn't even cover her face with her hands since Jun Ji-hyun was grabbing hold of her.

She could only look at that woman. She had heard her. Her daughter? Who? Jennie?

Since when was Jennie her daughter? Before Hye-Jun sorted out her thoughts, Jun Ji-hyun flared up again. She could no longer hold herself back.

She couldn't swallow this. Those pent-up feelings which she had suppressed and accumulated over the years had finally found a vent. She grabbed onto Hye-Jun's hand and didn't let her escape, just like what she had done earlier.

"Who are you calling a home-wrecker? Who did you think is the home-wrecker? Let me tell you, I am not the home-wrecker. Your mom is the home-wrecker. Your mom, Seo Yea-Ji, is the home-wrecker! She stole my man! She had set a trap to get your father into a relationship with her. Then, they had you and got married."

Hye-Jun had never heard this version of the story before. She stared with her big eyes at Jun Ji-hyun, in shock. "You are speaking nonsense!"

"Am I speaking nonsense? You can go back and ask Seo Yea-Ji who the home-wrecker is. Who is so shameless as to steal another person's man?"

Jun Ji-hyun flung off Hye-Jun's hand with force, took a deep breath, then turned to look at Jennie and asked, "Are you okay, Jennie?"

Jennie shook her head slightly as she replied, "I'm okay, Mom."

She held onto Jun Ji-hyun as she walked forward. She felt happy that Jun Ji-hyun had stood up for her.

She was worried though. It had taken a long time before she had managed to get Jun Ji-hyun to stop thinking about the past.

Thanks to the fuss that Hye-Jun had kicked up, she was worried that Jun Ji-hyun would feel horrible and guilty about herself again. She would need a long time before she could recover from it again.

Qiu Junjiao and the rest were stunned by the turn of events. Everybody stared blankly at Jun Ji-hyun and her daughter.

Even Qiu Jinjiao, who had always been foul-mouthed, was dumbfounded by such a turn of events.

"All is good now that you are okay." Jun Ji-hyun still couldn't stomach the grievances. She turned her body quickly as she stared hard at Hye-Jun and said, "Miss Kim, let me warn you. Jennie is not an unwanted child. She is my most, most precious girl. Please pay attention to how you use your words in the future. I will not show mercy if there is a second time."

She pulled Jennie's hand as she prepared to leave after speaking those words.

Jennie retracted her hand, however, patted her on the shoulders, and walked to Hye-Jun.

"Hye-Jun! Firstly, I am not arrogant. I have always only done what I think I can and should do, whether it was in the past or now. Secondly, my greatest asset is myself, not Lisa."

When she saw the five-fingered handprint on Hye-Jun's face, her tone grew gentler as she said, "Lastly, although my mom hit you first, she did so because you insulted us first. Thus, let's call it quits and let this matter end. I really hope that we can stop interfering with each other's life. This is better for both of us, don't you agree?"
