Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 4

757.Waiting Game

He nodded lightly and did not ask any further. He then caressed her long, soft hair and spoke lovingly. "Wife, I didn't expect that you would bring so many people to come searching for me."

"Aren't all of them your subordinates?"

"Your feelings made me really happy." It turned out that his wife had been so worried for his safety.

...

Earlier, in a hotel near the Jia Ya Hospital, Simi received news that Jennie had actually commanded a bunch of helicopters and bodyguards to go rescue Lisa.

It seemed like Lisa was in serious trouble.

She wasn't worried about Lisa dying. If he actually died, the Manoban family would end up in her elder brother's hands. That was also a good thing.

Instead, she was angered that Jennie actually commanded this much power in the Manoban family. To think that she would be able to move these many subordinates.

Jennie had left the hospital and Somi felt that this was her opportunity.

Thus, she put on some make-up and changed into a nurse's uniform which she had prepared. She put on a hat and a mask before heading for the Jia Ya Hospital's doctor's office.

Hmph, so what if the security was especially tight?

Once she hypnotised the doctor, she would be able to take Lee Jingyuan's life.

Besides, there was no need for her to take action personally.

There was also Dong Lee. Although he was unconscious, he remained a time bomb. If Dong Lee awoke one day, her status as the fake successor to the Lee Group would be exposed.

There was no harm in eliminating both of them at one go.

She would remove Dong Lee at the same time.

Somi was an especially careful person. She would not set her heart at ease until Lee Jingyuan and Dong Lee were both dead.

Thus, she hypnotised the doctor and followed after him while pretending to be a nurse.

They first visited the intensive care unit. She watched personally as the doctor injected Lee Jingyuan with a medicine that would put him to eternal rest. After that, they visited the VIP ward. Doctor Guo Yi injected Dong Lee with the same medicine.

After this series of events, Somi was finally able to set her heart at ease.

Jennie thought herself capable of being her opponent. As if!

Right now, no one in this world knew that Somi was not the Lee family's actual successor.

In a few hours, when Lee Jingyuan's death was discovered, the Lee family's business would be hers!

At the thought of this, Somi smiled in greed.

She returned to the hospital and began to wait anxiously for news that Lee Jingyuan had passed away.

At 8:00a.m. the next morning, she still did not receive any news from the hospital.

Somi could not sit still any longer and began to pace back and forth in her hospital room.

She dialed Manoban Chongshan's number and spoke in a tone of concern. "Grandfather, have you had breakfast?"

"I just ate. I'm strolling in the old mansion's yard." Chongshan sounded a little suspicious. "Somi, you don't usually call me at this time. What happened?"

"My grandfather is in intensive unit care and I'm really worried about him. It also made me realize that I haven't taken good care of you in the past few years. Somi cannot help but feel guilty."

"Is that all? As long as you remain obedient, you'll still be able to lead a good life in the Manoban family."

The Elder seemed to be hinting at something. Could he have discovered something? Somi's expression turned heavy. However, her tone remained light and flattering. "Grandfather, don't worry. This grand daughter of yours will never cause trouble for you."

"Is that so?" Chongshan ended the call.

Somi dialed her mother immediately after. There wasn't any news from the hospital whatsoever. Instead, she learned that Lisa and Jennie had safely returned to Yu Ting Villa last night.
