THE GENIUS WIFE [JENLISA] (4)

CHAPTER 732

Felix heaved a sigh of relief when Lisa chose not to punish him. He stood up and immediately went to get the car, afraid that Lisa would change his mind. Lisa also stood up with a hint of panic in his eyes and anxiety in his heart.

When Bai Xue saw that Lisa was about to leave, she stood up immediately and asked in a choked voice, “Brother Manoban, can I come with you to meet sister-in-law?”

Lisa rejected Bai Xue without even thinking. Bai Xue felt even more aggrieved and tears rolled down her face. She cried so hard that people’s heart would ache for her. How could Lisa be so cold and heartless?

Bai Xue cried while she secretly observed Lisa. Seeing that there was no change in his expression, she continued sobbing, “Why not?”

“I also want to quickly get to know sister-in-law and become her best friend.”

“Even this won’t do?”

Lisa looked at Bai Xue coldly. From the bedroom fiasco just now, he knew that this girl was a troublemaker. Now that the misunderstanding had not even been cleared up, letting this girl go would only make things worse. It would make things even more difficult to explain.

Lisa couldn’t give Bai Xue another chance to make trouble, so he replied coldly, “Madam doesn’t need a best friend.”

Especially a best friend who’s trying to steal her man. Lisa had always thought that this girl was the same innocent and kind girl when she was young. He didn’t expect the grown-up version of her to be scheming and unscrupulous. Lisa had even thought about throwing her out.

When Bai Xue saw the coldness and disgust in Lisa’s eyes, she cried even more pitifully and said in a choked voice, “Brother Manoban, I’m sorry.”

“I know what happened just now was my fault.”

“Actually, I’ve loved you since we were little. That’s why I risked my life to save you.”

“I just didn’t expect that I still want to be with you when we meet again after so many years.”

When Lisa heard this, the image of a little figure who risked her life to save him when they were young appeared in his mind. The disgust in his eyes instantly lessened. It was replaced by guilt and heartache.

The little girl back then had stayed up all night to study medicine to save him. She was so small and thin, but she insisted on going up the mountain to find herbs, her fair hands blistered and callused.

When Bai Xue saw the change in Lisa’s expression, a smile appeared on her face, but she quickly retracted it. She knew that bringing up the past would make Lisa feel guilty. Otherwise, he might really chase her away at any moment.

Bai Xue sobbed a few more times and said quickly to Lisa, taking advantage of her victory, “Brother Manoban, I know you don’t like me. You hate me.”

“I won’t be so shameless as to continue bothering you.”

“I’m going to pack up and leave now.”

With that, Bai Xue walked up the stairs, crying even more miserably. This was how she would manipulate Lisa so that he’d feel guilt towards her forever. Only then would she have a chance at getting him.

Lisa frowned when he saw that Bai Xue was about to go and pack her things. He was awash with guilt as he said, “I don’t hate you. You don’t have to leave.”

Even though this woman had done things that made Lisa detest her, she was still his savior. Lisa wouldn’t just chase her away. He would never forget how Bai Xue had saved his life when they were young.

Bai Xue immediately stopped crying. With tears still on her face, she asked in surprise, “Really?”

“Brother Manoban, you really don’t hate me?”

Lisa heard the car pull up at this moment and didn’t want to waste more time with Bai Xue. The most important thing right now was to quickly go see Jennie.

He couldn’t let Jennie misunderstand him. Lisa knew that there were many people who cared about Jennie. Just so he could leave quickly, Lisa nodded perfunctorily.

At this moment, Felix walked over and said respectfully, “Chairman, the car is ready.”

Lisa turned and strode away without hesitation. Bai Xue watched Lisa’s back as he left, her eyes filled with infatuation but also coldness. She had put in so much effort, but in the end, Lisa treated her like this? This was not what she wanted. Bai Xue sneered and muttered to herself, “Lisa, I’ve given you a chance.”

“Since you didn’t take it, don’t blame me.”

“You can only be mine, and mine alone!”
