SET IN STONE• (part-1)

Chapter:80

"Medium well." Other than towards Lisa, Jungkook always had little to say.

"Great, and for the lady? How would you like yours done?"

"Well done. Thank you."

"Um… Miss, it'll be overcooked and might affect the flavor," the waiter explained in a speechless manner.

"No worries, I like it well done."

"Alright. Your dishes will be here shortly."

They ordered two steaks. While Jungkook ordered for his to be medium well, Lisa's preference of a well-done steak startled the waiter.

"I'm paying today. Order whatever you want!"

"Why are you suddenly so generous? Do you need my help again?" Jungkook asked as he sipped on his red wine.

"Tsk tsk… you are truly omniscient like a god."

Lisa couldn't help but admire Jungkook's wits. He always managed to see right through her.

"What do you need? Tell me."

"Nothing really. It's just that my mom's been nagging me to move back home. Of course, moving back home is not sensible since we're already married. But I do want to spend a couple of days at home with her and Haruto."

"That's fine." Jungkook nodded.

"You agreed?" Lisa didn't expect such an easy answer from Jungkook.

"Yeah, go home for a couple of days. Buy your mom and your brother lots of things. If you don't have enough money, I'll get the Finance Department to transfer you some."

"... No, it's alright. I have enough. I think I have way more than enough."

Lisa was mostly using her own salary for her spendings, and her salary had also increased a lot along with her promotion.

With Jungkook arranging her day-to-day needs, she didn't need to spend too much.

She didn't touch a single cent of Jungkook's monthly salary.

Although Jungkook didn't want to send his wife home to her mom, he could understand her feelings.

So, even if he was going to miss her dearly, he didn't want to tell her. He wanted to make sure that she was happy.

The couple both enjoyed the meal. When they arrived home, a phone call from the company pulled Jungkook back to work.

As for Lisa, she took a shower and immediately got into bed, lying there as she flipped through some books and enjoyed some light music, relaxed as could be.

The next day, when Lisa got off work, she bought a few baskets of fresh vegetables and fruits and headed straight for her mother's house.

Due to his night classes, Haruto hadn't returned home yet.

Her mother cooked an entire chicken and made her some stir-fry dishes. The mother and daughter enjoyed a very rich dinner.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open and in came two people.

The person in the front was auntie Song, their next-door neighbor. As for the person behind her, Lisa couldn't see clearly enough to recognize their face.

"Oh? Did you just start eating?"

"Yeah." Lisa's mother got up and pulled up a chair for her to sit down in.

"Lisa, you're back!" Aunty Song gave an especially friendly smile to Lisa.

"Auntie Song!" Lisa greeted.
