In the midst of this completely unfamiliar environment and people, Lisa feels scared and doesn't know what to do. She touches the ring necklace her mother gave her hidden under her shirt and takes a deep breath.

"Hey, just calm down. Everything will be fine."

"Of course. As long as you keep your mouth shut."Hearing Lisa comforting him softly, the man coldly replied again.

"What do you mean?"

"You don't have to say anything, just keep quiet."

"Don't say anything?"

Lisa asked again in response to the commanding words. Don't say anything he said? Lisa's momentary sympathy for Jungkook just disappeared.

"Yes. After all, your words won't help me at all. If you dare to say anything, I won't forgive you."

"I think it's better if I say something and then we go our separate ways. At least I'm more comfortable that way."

"Didn't you say, in this world there is not only 'threatening', but also 'asking for help'?"

Huh. Really this guy. Jungkook turned Lisa's words upside down. How dare the person who had dragged her into this absurd situation even patronize her.

"You're really..."

"I'm serious. I beg you, don't say a word. Don't embarrass yourself with unnecessary words."

Hearing his unreasonable request, Lisa looked at him with annoyance. Meanwhile, Jungkook doesn't seem to care about Lisa's reaction. There is something that is a talent from birth and there is also something that cannot be hidden.

Even though this woman was 'wrapped' in a luxurious dress and makeup, Jungkook didn't dare to expect this woman to behave luxuriously like Shin Hee.

However, in return, Lisa has a courage and resilience that even Jungkook can't beat. Her pride cannot be underestimated in this world. That one thing alone is enough to keep her in this situation. Hopefully.

"Alright, if you're begging me."

"I beg you."

Huh, okay. He must actually be embarrassed of me, right? Lisa chuckled at Jungkook's increasingly tense face and warned her in a cold tone.

You're not the only one who's ashamed of me, I'm also not proud of you for being like that.

Before Jungkook could say anything more to Lisa, suddenly his stepmother and aunts approached them. Feeling the hand that hugged Lisa's waist getting stronger, Lisa alternately looked at Jungkook and the woman who came over to them.

A middle-aged woman gave Lisa a sharp look. She looks beautiful but cold. Her silver dress looks luxurious but feels stiff.

"So, this is your girlfriend?"

"This is my mom. And these are my aunts. Hurry up and say hello."

Jungkook briefly introduced his family and before Lisa could open her mouth to say hello, one of his aunts criticized her again.

"How can a girl like this be your girlfriend?"

"You look so much like your father, you don't know the rules."

Lisa stood silently while Jungkook's aunts' judgment sharpened. Although Jungkook didn't forbid her from saying a word, it seemed like she wouldn't have a chance to open her mouth either. Like Jungkook said earlier, Lisa was completely attacked by their cold stares and sharp comments.

"What does her family do?"

"No need to know."

Jungkook replied briefly at Mrs. Oh's question who had been watching Lisa while hiding a satisfied smile. Lisa's true identity might indeed be revealed in an instant.

However, those people don't know the courage hidden inside Lisa. A secret weapon.

Lisa will definitely win this battle.

"I didn't ask you. Then, you don't have a mouth, do you?"

"You don't know how to say greetings? You're just nodding like that in front of an old man."

This time, the other aunts criticized Lisa again, who just smiled in response. Based on her experience in the social community so far, Lisa knows very well that a smile is the best form of greeting when the other person doesn't give her a chance to speak.

The aunties, who always interrupted Lisa every time she was about to say something, left after a while. What a rude and disrespectful gesture.

Mrs. Oh, who stayed behind once again, gave Lisa a sharp look. Her face was completely unfamiliar to her, but from the moment she saw it, Lisa knew that this person was nothing to worry about.

"You're really quiet, aren't you? Or can't talk?"

Even hearing that suspicious question, Lisa still answered with a bitter smile. Meanwhile, Mrs. Oh who had looked satisfied earlier now looked unhappy.

"I never told you to bring a mute woman."

"I guess it's none of your business."

"It turns out that you chose a woman whose nature is also like you, huh."

This time Mrs. Oh muttered under her breath in a scornful tone without even glancing at Lisa. She then left them and re-entered the wedding venue. A look of satisfaction radiated from her firm steps.

Maybe this was more than she expected. Maybe she hoped that the relationship between Jungkook and the woman who kept her mouth shut while watching her surroundings could continue, just like his family wanted.

Once his family was out of sight, Jungkook pulled Lisa, who kept her mouth shut and watched her surroundings with a smile, to one side of the lobby.

"What the hell are you doing?"

"You said I shouldn't say a word. I only did what you asked me to do. Especially since you were begging me earlier."

Lisa responded to Jungkook's protest casually.

Jungkook momentarily forgot that this woman was not an easy woman to manage. Although he was lazy to deal with a stupid woman, dealing with a woman who was too smart was also very tiring. It was hard to win an argument with this woman. Because it was possible that he would lose more than what he had gained.

However, it turns out that this woman can also survive in this situation. She turned out to be the right choice.
