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

Chapter 43

But this wasn’t what Nancy was doing.

Nancy never intended to let her off.

She wouldn’t stop until Jennie’s life ended up in shambles.

Perhaps her current life wasn’t as terrible as Nancy would’ve hoped, and this upset her, so she got more extreme with her ways.

She was bent on ruining her reputation and embarrassing her in school.

Also, Nancy saw her on the day of the audition. She might be trying to ruin her third female role after finding out that she’d been successful in obtaining it.

All of these were possible.

Upon thinking about that, Jennie’s ball of fury grew even bigger.

It seemed like she wasn’t able to get away from it, even though she’d tried her best to.

Someone just wouldn’t let her off.

If she still sat back and allowed herself to be attacked without countering it, she wouldn’t be Jennie.

She’d be a weak girl!

Jennie was the sort of person who avoided conflicts because she didn’t like blowing things up. But once she decided to fight back, she’d do a damned good job at it.

“You can do whatever you want.” Lisa sounded ready to indulge her. “Jennie, I’m willing to cooperate with you unconditionally.”

…

Hanbin found it out pretty quickly too.

He gave her a call halfway through their meal.

He said that the address was also the Kim household.

Hanbin sounded furious over the phone. If Jennie hadn’t calmed him down and dissuaded him, he would’ve stormed to the Kim household to beat Nancy up.

Thankfully, Jennie managed to stop him.

After hanging up, she wasn’t in the mood to eat anymore. She kept thinking about how to get back at Nancy.

After being in a daze for a while, a little pile of food had formed on her plate.

Lisa pinched her cheek lightly. “Don’t think about it now, have some food first. You can start thinking about it once you’ve filled your stomach.”

“Oh.”

Jennie picked up her knife and fork and saw that the steak on her plate had been cut up already. The sizes were just right for her to consume each in one mouthful.

Meanwhile, Lisa’s steak was still in its intact state.

She felt all warm and fuzzy on the inside by this thoughtful act.

She had to admit that while Lisa seemed aloof and unapproachable, he was actually very good at caring for others when he set his heart to it.

Jennie felt that she wasn’t getting good ideas, so she might as well properly enjoy the steak that Lisa had cut up for her instead.

…

After lunch, Lisa sent Jennie back to school.

He still had work to attend to in the office, so he only chatted with her for a few minutes before taking his leave.

Jennie had the habit of taking afternoon naps.

There were two lessons in the afternoon, but they were after three, so she had time to take a nap when she returned to her room.
