However, no matter what horrible things Jeon Ji Yong did, he was still his son.
It didn't matter who he chose. Having to choose between his son and grandson, it felt like a piece of his heart was being sliced off.
After contemplating for a while, Old Master Jeon tiredly waved his hand. "Since there's conclusive evidence, let the police handle this matter. Sort out the Jeon family's company as soon as possible. Don't let our family become a laughing stock."
Jungkook understood that this was the compromise that Old Master Jeon had decided on. In a low voice, he said, "I understand."

In the living room, Mother Jeon wasn't upset at all that Jeon Ji Yong had been arrested. She continued to leisurely and elegantly plan her son's wedding for him.
Holding Ye Lisa's hand, she said, "Ji Eun, when would be a good time for me to meet your parents so I can talk to them? I want to finish up the remaining wedding arrangements. We need a list of the family friends and relatives that your parents want to invite to the wedding."
Hearing the word “wedding” felt like hearing an invocation that would crush her to death.
It would curse her to the identity of "Mrs. Jeon."
"This.... I'll go ask them."
"It's the Jeon family's fault for delaying in sitting down and having a chat with your parents. How about this, I have time tomorrow. I'll come along when you and your younger sister go home tomorrow. While I'm there, I'll pay your parents a visit, and I'll talk to them then."
"This..."
The more that Mother Jeon thought about it, the more that she felt it would be a good idea to see her in-laws as early as possible. They could also discuss the details of the wedding together during her visit.
"It's settled then. Mom will go with you tomorrow. Alright, I'm going to go prepare some gifts for the visit tomorrow." After saying this, she hummed a little ditty as she walked upstairs with a smile.
When Ye Lisa had first come to the Jeon family, Mother Jeon had to suffer in silence and behave obsequiously. But now, Mother Jeon's life was becoming happier and more carefree. In this case, it could be seen that sometimes you were better off without a man than having one.
From the living room, Ye Lisa saw Ye Ji Eun standing in the second floor corridor and gesturing at herself. She immediately understood Ye Ji Eun's meaning. Ye Lisa stood up and walked upstairs. Right after she entered the room, she saw Ye Qing sitting on the couch and looking extremely anxious.
"What took you so long?!" Ye Ji Eun got up and locked the door. She wanted to immediately change clothes with Ye Lisa and was very impatient about it.
However, Ye Lisa remained seated on the sofa and didn't even twitch. It looked like a cloud of gloom was hovering over her head.
"Let's quickly change our clothes. If we wait, we won't have time later."
Ye Lisa looked at her older sister, who's mind only had thoughts of becoming Mrs. Jeon. She sighed and said, "Older sister, there's no point anymore. Jeon Jungkook already knows."
Ye Ji Eun didn't immediately connected the dots. "He knows what?"
"He knows everything. He knows that we tried to fool him and the whole story behind me taking your place in marrying him originally. He was only pretending that he didn't know." Ye Lisa quietly said, "It was all a waste of effort. All we did was give him a free show to watch."
Ye Lisa's heartbeat sped up after she heard these words. After a long pause, she incredulously asked, "Are you saying that not only does Jungkook know that you took my place in marrying him originally, he also knows that I was the one living in the Jeon family's villa these past few days instead of you."
Ye Lisa nodded.
Ye Ji Eun stood in place in shock. She thought about Ye Lisa's words for a while before she suspiciously looked at Ye Lisa. "How did he find out?"
Jeon Jungkook had only woken up half a month ago, and he had spent almost all of his time at the hospital doing physical therapy. How could he have found out about all this?
Ye Ji Eun stared at Ye Lisa and demanded, "Did you tell him?"
It really was Ye Lisa's fault. She had told Jeon Jungkook everything back when she thought he was unconscious.
When she thought it about it, she really had brought all of this onto herself. If she hadn't blabbed this secret, Jungkook wouldn't have found out about "Ye Lisa" taking Ye Ji Eun's place in the marriage.
"It doesn't matter who told him. We can't change the fact that he already knows everything. You don't have to worry though. You want to be Mrs. Jeon, right? That's still possible."
***
Since Jungkook.already knew the truth, there was no need for Ye Ji Eum and Ye Lisa to play games.
Ye Lisa had Ye Ji Eun go back to her room. She would figure out a solution on her own.
Shortly after Ye Ji Eun was sent away, the old butler knocked on the door before coming inside with a small cart that was loaded with midnight snacks and tonics that were specially prepared for Ye Lisa. One by one, he transferred the items onto a table.
