The fact that Lee Jingyuan had found his long lost son and granddaughter after years was kept a secret.

Although both Huang Zhishu and Kai were Manoban family members, they remained unaware of this fact.

Two weeks later, Lee Jingyuan made a full recovery from his wound and was discharged from the hospital.

As for Dong Lee, or more accurately, Lee Xuan, he had also recovered significantly. As he did not wish to remain in the hospital everyday, Jennie brought him back to the Yu Ting Villa to recover.

It hadn't been easy for Lee Jingyuan to reunite with his son. He naturally followed him to the Yu Ting Villa for a temporary stay.

In any case, there were many rooms in the Yu Ting Villa and it was no trouble having them over.

On this day, Kai and Huang Zhishu came to the Yu Ting Villa with the request to see Lisa.

To their surprise, they were successfully led into Yu Ting Villa's living room.

Lisa was sitting on the couch. His posture was upright and his expression was frigidly cold. He carried the aura of a ruler about him.

Jennie, who was indescribably beautiful, sat by his side.

Kai took in Jennie's fair skin and stunning beauty. He began to feel a sense of jealousy and anger once more.

This woman was supposed to be his! He deeply regretted not accepting her feelings back then.

"Lisa ah, you detained Somi when Elder Lee became unconscious. So many days have passed since then." Huang Zhishu glanced at Lisa carefully and attempted to ask. "Even if she did something wrong, she has received the punishment she deserves. Isn't it time to release her?"

Lisa was expressionless. His lips twitched ever so slightly into a hint of smile. He lifted the cigar between his fingers and took a draw. Wisps of smoke rose into the air.

Huang Zhishi could not guess his thoughts and the atmosphere turned awkward.

At this moment, Lee Jingyuan, who had gone for a stroll, returned.

When Huang Zhishu saw him, she immediately greeted him warmly. "Elder Lee, you're just in time. Lisa suspects that Somi has bad intentions against you and has detained her. It's been eighteen days since he put her under guard. Aren't you doing just fine right now? Somi is a child with a good heart. Please speak up for her."

"That's right." Kai pitched in as well. "Elder Lee, don't forget that Somi is your last living relative. Can you bear to watch her suffer as she remains locked up?"

He had waited with his mother for some time, but the Manoban family did not seem to wish to deal with Somi in any way.

They thus believed that Lee Jingyuan did not tell anyone that Somi had attempted to murder him. They assumed that it was because the old man could not bear to lose his only living relative in this world.

Huang Zhishu continued hopefully. "Elder Lee, you must have come to the Yu Ting Villa to beg for mercy on behalf of Somi, right?"

Both of them did not know that Lee Jingyuan was temporarily living in the Yu Ting Villa.

"Lisa, let Somi out. Let's resolve this matter," Lee Jingyuan finally spoke up.

Lisa waved his hand. A bodyguard waiting by the side went to the storeroom in the building next to the main villa and dragged Somi over.

Somi's hands were pressed behind her back. She entered the living room to see that both her mother and brother were present. She nodded slightly at them. She then saw Lee Jingyuan standing in the living room with his hands behind his back. She was very surprised that the damn old man was still alive!

In that case, the fact that she had smashed a vase over his head could no longer be concealed. She immediately put on a guilty expression and spoke apologetically. "Grandfather!"

"I am not your grandfather." Lee Jingyuan's wrinkled face was extremely cold.

Somi did not know that her status had been exposed and assumed he was still angry at her for plotting to murder him.

She considered the fact that no one had dealt with this matter for so long and felt certain that the old man's heart must have softened by now. He must not be able to bear to expose her misdeeds.

Thus, she knelt towards Lee Jingyuan in tears. "Grandfather, Somi was foolish and made a mistake. Please forgive me!"
