Lisa could actually imagine the wondrous sight of that little bird of woman sticking to Jungkook.

The ache in her heart became so much more painful that it hurts to breathe. Her big doe eyes were strained at the sight of Jungkook's dazzling smile, whereas her entire body felt so cold it was no different from being dumped into an icy cavern.

Hanging up, Jungkook put an arm over her shoulder and asked softly. "Want to go to the airport with me Baby?"

Before, she never felt uncomfortable when he did that aside from being embarrassed.

Now, however, she felt really disgusted.

Following him to receive his ex? Dream on!

It was to end this vague relationship anyway!

With his former girlfriend's return, she was now expendable and of no value.

Hence, Lisa slowly pushed him away. Still, she had a hard time smiling when she met his tender gaze. "You should go. I'm still a little ill so I'll go home and rest".

Flustered, Jungkook scanned her from head to toe. "You're ill?" He asked worriedly.

"It's just my waist. It still hurts a little" Lisa forced another smile and shoved him. "Go get your ex. I'll be going home".

"I'll have someone come with you".

"No need Jungkook" Lisa refused, "I'll drive home"

Even as she spoke, she panickily turned and left as if afraid that he had more to say.

Her tears welled in her eyes but it wouldn't fall regardless.

She asked herself why she was upset, but for some mysterious reason, she wasn't sure.

But even as she turned, Jungkook watched her and smiled helplessly. "Silly little thing".

****

After leaving the office, Lisa took her car from the carpark and gave her a little one a phone call.

"Mommy...." The little boy sounded groggy and languid.

The gloom inside her faded entirely at the sound of his tender voice, and she smiled. "You're still not up yet, Baby? What time is it already?"

"Hmm....played too much last night.....still a little sleepy"

She sighed feebly. "Mommy is back"

"You're back!" The little one quickly became energetic. "Where are you, Mommy?! I've missed you so much".

"I'm heading to Bang Chan's place now. Wait for me".

"Yes, Mommy!"

Naturally, her son was more reliable.

That said....the boy was her and Jungkook's.

Lisa's smiled faded when she thought of Jungkook.

That was when a call reached her.

It was Kim Mingyu.

Lisa frowned, but despite wanting to decline the call, she accepted it in the end for some reason.

"What is it?" She asked coldly.

"Lili...." Mingyu's voice sounded weird, with audible static from blowing winds. "I'm at my father's grave....Could you come? The truth is that there's something he wanted to tell you before he died. He told me to relay to it to you, but I don't out of my selfish desire....I hope that I cam tell you now face to face".

Lisa refused by instinct. "Tell me now!"

She was more and more repulsed by Kim Mingyu.

"No....I have to tell you face to face!" Mingyu voice was shaking and rather pained. "I'll wait for you, and I will tell you in front of him. Or....Or I won't rest in peace...."

Then, pausing as if afraid that Lisa would refuse, he begged, "Lili, I won't hurt you! This time....this is the last time we'll meet, alright?"

Lisa hesitated for a moment at that and turned the steering wheel, shifting the car to the other direction.

"Wait for me there"

The graveyard.

Lisa arrived with a bouquet of lilies in hand.

As she climbed the steps, Kim Mingyu, who was nearby turned towards her.

He was already much skinnier although it was just a while since they've met. His pale white face was now mostly different from the picture of Kim Woobin's face on his grave, and a little weirder.

The winds here were strong and making a mess of Lisa's bangs.

She stood still, stared at the black-and-white photo on the grave and bowed three times before putting her flowers on it.

Then, she pulled her hair behind ear and coolly said, "Talk"

Kim Mingyu turned.

The woman's eyes were dark and impassive, and as indifferent as her facial features. Her tall curvaceous form gave her a distinct noble air.

Her hair that was as long as seaweed remained dark and smooth as ever.

Kim Mingyu's gaze turned tired and distant then. "I remember that we were always together when we're younger, going school and leaving school together- I've always tried to amuse you since you didn't like talking back then, although you'll cry....huh. I really miss how things were between us back in those days".

"Still...." He reached out and wormed his hand between her hair and sighed in nostalgia. "But we can no longer go back".

Lisa pushed him away in disgust and took one step back. "I'm leaving if that's what you had to say!"

She turned, but that was when Kim Mingyu's voice changed. "Actually, I don't have anything to say. Nor did my father told me anything".

"Still, I just wanted to tell you that it was I was drugged you four years ago".

Lisa froze.

Kim Mingyu approached her with a sly smile, with the buffeting winds and the empty graveyard making his voice even more sinister. "I did it after the graduation ceremony....but damn it, Tzuyu that little bitch was so jealous she stopped me from touching you, and so you ended up with some random stranger".

Lisa's eyes widened in disbelief.

Kim Mingyu reached beside her ears and spoke coldly as a viper, "Oh Lili, I love you so much I couldn't wait to take you as mine! But you had no position in the Lee family, and no stocks of the company....that's why I could only choose Tzuyu".

He lustfully sniffed at the scent of her hair and sneered. "The reason I chose her was because Kim Group was already almost bankrupt four years ago, and only the Lee family could have saved us. Even so, she abandoned me for Jungkook in the blink of an eye, and made me a cuckold! And when I thought I wouldn't see you for the rest of my life, you become even more of a woman when you came back after the four years. Don't you know how badly I wanted to make you mine you mine the moment I saw you again!"

Kim Mingyu was more agitated the more he spoke. He was holding Lisa tightly in his eyes too, and his eyes were bursting with jealously at the mere mention of Jungkook.

"Let me ago"

Lisa struggled, feeling waves of chill insider herself.

She wanted to vomit! Never did she expect that Kim Mingyu was the one who had drugged her!

Disgusting!

Nonetheless, Kim Mingyu kept her in a vice grip between both arms. "Oh Lili. Did you know how much it hurt when I begged you, only to you have refuse me? I'm so sad....Why would you do that to me? How could you just forget our four years of relationship?"
