A Lifetime Of Care

Chapter 45

After Lisa played with Soobin for a while, Jungkook called for the child to go to bed. Then, he took Lisa to the indoor window sill on the second floor to look at the night scene. She looked down at the hand he was holding and then looked back up at him. The man looked extraordinarily distinguished under the lights and her heart began pounding.

Tonight, although Lisa had a better perception of it, she still didn’t understand the world of the wealthy.

She knew that even when a person’s spiritual strength was stronger, the gap in the material world could still be clearly seen. Just like Yoongi and Sana, both of whom were used to an exquisite and luxurious lifestyle. After listening to them discuss finances and politics, she realized that despite Sana’s childish nature, her knowledge was not superficial.

This realization made her feel that even though she and Jungkook were so different, he nevertheless became a lover within her reach. Their marriage was indeed a magical existence.

They walked all the way to the bay window and the silent solitude was different from the lively atmosphere downstairs. It was elegantly decorated with tables and chairs in the European style. Jungkook leaned down and lightly kissed her cheek. She stared blankly at him for a moment before she recovered enough to smile. “Do you have something you want to tell me?”

Jungkook didn't rush to answer but found a rattan chair and sat down. He only wore a shirt and a long black dress pants. With a composed temperament and a gentle complexion, he glanced at her and said, "If I want to be alone with you, do I have to have something to say?"

In this gentle moonlight, she looked back at him quietly and walked toward him. She didn’t sit down in front of him but leaned comfortably back against the table. She didn’t have long legs like a model, but her legs were straight and well-proportioned. Her hips, wrapped in jeans, were slightly curved, and at the moment, with her pressed against the table, she looked particularly tempting.

He took her hand lightly and did not say what she wanted to know but instead carelessly asked, “Do you want to drink tea? There are tea in the cupboard, with teapots and cups, all washed.”

“Let’s not bother the director’s hands. I’ll make it for you.”

Lisa turned around to take out a clean tea set. As he watched her slim and petite back, Jungkook’s eyes darkened. Finally, the corners of his mouth hooked up. “I was thinking that since we have a husband and wife relationship, shouldn’t you be more aware of this problem?”

She turned back in surprise and the cup knocked against the porcelain plate with a clear sound. “When am I not aware of?”

“Regarding your suitor, shouldn’t you keep a distance?”

Lisa guessed something vaguely in her mind, but she couldn't believe it. She restrained the giddy smile on her mouth and brought up the hot water for the tea set. In the next second, Jungkook got up and took the plate from her. After placing it on the table steadily, he lifted the pot handle and slowly pour the tea. At that moment, the only sound was the tea flowing quietly.

She raised an eyebrow at him. “My suitor? Who's that?”

“Have Taehyung ever pursued you?”

Lisa took a tea cup and brought it up to her lips. Her heart was clearly threatening to jump out of her chest, but she still pretended to be calm. She said, “No. When he began to show me a good impression, I was already married...Hey? The great and majestic Director Jeon, how could he be so unexpectedly petty?”

Jungkook stared at her and resolutely asked, “Have you liked any other man before?”

Lisa let out a puff of laughter. Who knew that in the next moment, she would suddenly be pulled into his arms. He held her so tightly that she could not laugh anymore.
