I'm Secretly Married to a Bigshot [ JenLisa adaptation ]

Chapter 39

“I know how long I have known Krystal for. I don’t need you to remind me of that.” Lisa said expressionlessly, “My attitude towards her has nothing to do with how long I’ve known her for. If she felt embarrassed that day, she asked for it.”

“Lisa, you…”

“I haven’t changed, the problem lies with you.” Lisa looked at him matter-of-factly. “You know very well why things have turned out like this. Also, my wife is somebody I will protect for life. Anyone that makes her upset is finding trouble with me.”

Jennie was so touched, she squeezed his hand tightly.

This man did as he promised.

He’d told her that he wouldn’t let anyone make her feel upset or aggrieved.

And he’d chosen to stand on her side even when they were facing his friend of over 10 years.

He hadn’t ignored this issue simply because Mino was his buddy.

Not everyone was able to handle things this way.

In fact, most men wouldn’t be able to.

To many of them, their buddies were way more important than their women.

Mino was furious at his stubbornness. “… Alright. I’ll see how long you can protect her for. Lisa, you’ll regret it one day!”

With that, Mino stormed out.

Before leaving, he shot Jennie another glare, but this time, there was a strange emotion in his eyes.

Lisa rubbed his temple. He seemed a little tired.

“Are you alright?” Jennie felt bad.

Lisa always ended up in conflict with Mino because of her.

They used to be such good friends.

But now…

She could tell that Lisa was also affected after his argument with Mino and Krystal.

He didn’t voice it explicitly, but how could he really be completely alright?

She thought about it. If she and Rosé strained their relationship someday, she’d be devastated too.

But she’d never do something so silly.

When Rosé found a guy in the future, she surely wouldn’t voice her opinion against him, unless he was an obviously terrible choice.

“I’m fine.” Lisa looked down at her and smiled. “It’s just a minor incident, don’t bother about it. Which bag caught your eye just now? Have they wrapped it up for you yet?”

“Mister, this is the bag.”

The employee was afraid they wouldn’t want it anymore, and that none of the bags would have been sold out by the end of this incident. She quickly walked over with the bag. “This lady took an interest in this black bag first. But Young Master Mino’s companion liked this one as well, so this lady let her have it.

“Actually, all three colors of this design are nice. The black one is classic, the wine red one has a Western-style to it, and the jade green one is vintage and elegant. All three of them are great as accessories.”

They had no idea who Lisa was.

But given how Mino seemed to be close to him…

He must be a big shot too.

Moreover, it seemed like he really doted on the female customer he was with. He was probably very generous too.

They were hoping to have him get all three bags at once.
