Back then, at the Jing Hua University's dormitory, when she fell off her bed, Lisa had been the one who caught hold of her. If it hadn't been for her, perhaps her neck would already have broken.
If it wasn't for Lisa, she would already have been ruined by Yook Sungjae. It had been Lisa who rescued her.
Although Sehun did not know all these things, he understood how strong her friendship with Lisa was.
What a joke! After spending so much time with him, he actually believed she would harm Lisa.
She only ever had the best intentions for Lisa.
This meant that he had never once properly understood her.
Indeed. This time, she really ought to give up.
Sehun was surprised by how quickly she responded. He then recalled her close friendship with Lisa and understood that she wouldn't hurt her.
Her gaze shifted onto his grip around her arm and he rushed to let go of it.
"Sehun, I'm tired." Tzuyu appeared slightly numb. "You've taken responsibility for me. You're a good man. It's a pity that you'll never be able to give me the love I desire."
Her high heels clicked loudly as she stepped out of the office.
As he took in her desolate back view, a sharp pain suddenly lanced through his heart.
He wasn't sure why, but when she said she was tired, he did not feel any relief whatsoever. Instead, he felt both flustered and frustrated.
She suddenly paused in her footsteps and added. "Do you know why I found out about you and Lisa? It was the part-time helper, Gao Ru, who recorded your conversation with her. She sent it to me. I suspect she doesn't just plan on destroying our relationship. She must be targeting Lisa. You are Lisa's older brother. You can't let this recording be exposed. Otherwise, you'll cause irreversible damage to Lisa's reputation."
She then appeared to have thought of something. "You started ignoring me starting this afternoon. Gao Ru must have recorded it then. Could it be that the recording has already been leaked to the public?"
She reached for her phone to check.
Sehun responded with certainty. "No."
She stiffened. All of a sudden, she understood everything. Her complexion was pale as she smiled. "Sehun, you're an intelligent man. Even if Gao Ru, the part-time worker, believes that you slept with Lisa, she doesn't have any evidence. You could have denied it yet you admitted to it so quickly. You even sent the recording to me... You were testing to see if I would harm Lisa?"
She waved her phone before him. "The recording that was sent to my phone, I deleted it right after I listened to it." She smiled bitterly. "You really didn't need to test me like this. It turns out that there isn't any trust between the two of us. Let's get a divorce."
Her tone was heavy. This time, she did not turn back nor did she look at him again. She directly headed into the elevator.
Thus, she missed his expression of pain and regret.
...
In Yu Ting Villa's study, Jungkook was in the midst of scanning through the documents on his desk. Right then, he received the same recording from a stranger's phone number.
After listening to the recording, Jungkook's frown deepened. His eyes had reddened and he appeared like an enraged beast.
He immediately made a call. When no one answered, he raised his voice. "Guards!"
A bodyguard immediately stepped into the room. He asked carefully. "Boss, what are your instructions?"
"Find out the source of this phone number. Bring the person before my eyes right now!"
"Yes, sir." The bodyguard immediately left to carry out his orders.
Jungkook clenched his fists tightly, digging his nails into his flesh. Sehun actually slept with Lisa two years ago.
How was this possible? It was absolutely impossible!
