Jungkook waved his hand and Cha Eunwoo quickly stopped the car by the roadside.

Lisa was taken aback by the sudden emergence of the car that now blocked her way.

Her cold little face was now red from the cold. She frowned slightly and poked her head out of the collar of her jacket.

The car window slowly rolled down, allowing her to see inside. However, once she saw the handsome face of the man in the car, the woman's expression switched from dissatisfaction to confusion.

"Why... Why are you here?"

She watched Jungkook get down from the car, and inadvertently took a step back, as if to keep a safe distance from him. She seemed to have forgotten all about last night whereby the distance between the two of them was basically non-existent...

Jungkook's face was grim, and he did not speak. His dark eyes flashed like that of an eagle's as they swept across Lisa's pale face in silence. Upon seeing that she was still keeping her guard up, the corner of his mouth curled upward in a mocking smile.

"I'm here to visit father-in-law!"

Hearing him speak in a tone so full of ridicule caused Lisa to quiver in anger.

'Isn't this man the reason Mu Marco is lying here?

'Yet he still has the guts to come here to crack such a disgusting joke?'

"You feel a twisted sense of achievement, don't you? Seeing me in such misery, seeing Jeon Tangbai's former comrade lying deep underground, seeing that you've single-handedly crushed the second most prestigious household in Luo Hai City, the Mu Family. "

Lisa let out all the hate that had been writhing in her heart.

Jungkook grit his teeth as his cold gaze swept across every inch of Lisa.

Uttering Jeon Tangbai's name was a taboo in the Jeon Family!

Jungkook was already a well-known child prodigy before he even reached the age of five, known for having an exceedingly high IQ and EQ. Because Jeon Tangbai placed extreme importance on the nurturing of his son, he would spend a lot of time communicating with his young child whenever he had the time, even going so far as to bring him to the military camp to attend important meetings.

It could be said that in the little Jungkook's heart, his tall and handsome father was the perfect example of what a strong grown-up should be like.

Similarly, it was this deep-seated adoration and respect that changed Jungkook so radically after he got the news about his father's death.

That cheerful optimistic little boy became the most lonely kind of person overnight - an orphan.

It was because of this that nobody dared to call out his father's name in front of Jungkook out of fear of reopening old wounds.

Today, however, Lisa had used his father's reputation to subtly taunt Jungkook. She had implicitly called him ungrateful by striking his father's former comrade when the latter was down. This was a slap to Jungkook's face!

"Get in the car!"

The two pairs of eyes locked, and the man immediately commanded her in a deep voice. It was obvious that he was doing his best to control his anger.

With this, Lisa knew that she had infuriated Jungkook, and she quietly smiled at the fact she was getting a bit of payback!

She icily stared at Jungkook's livid face, then gave a cold sneer as she brushed her hair away from her face. "I thought you would've hit me! "After all, I've hit a sore spot, right?"

Jungkook's sour expression turned piercingly cold as the bulging veins on his forehead began throbbing!

It was only because he could not bear to hurt the woman before him that he held back... he would have swung his fist if it had been anyone else.

"Don't provoke me anymore!"

The tone of Jungkook's warning frightened Lisa a little.

She stopped talking, but she also did not obediently get into the car.

The two of them had a silent stare-off for some time, each backed by a sense of resentment toward the other.

Jungkook did not want to hurt her, but as he watched this stubborn woman stare rebelliously at him, he eventually exploded and pulled her into the car!

"Drive!"

Jungkook's deep voice made Cha Eunwoo jump with fear.

He had stayed by Jungkook's side since young, and he knew very well that when this prince was unhappy and in a snotty mood, Luo Hai would have to tremble and obediently obey. What more when this man was at his breaking point?
