The CEO's Beloved Wife (Jenlisa Adaptation)

Chapter 45

"Are you rejecting me?" She really couldn't follow Lisa's train of thought, but she decided to give her an opportunity to explain herself.

If it were someone else who dared to talk to her in the manner she had, she definitely wouldn't have reacted with so much patience.

Her question left a bitter taste in both the Woman's mouth and in his heart.

Reject Jennie? Heaven knew how much she wanted her, and how much she wanted to make her his real wife and lover!

But she couldn't. Even if she wanted to, she couldn't. Not under these circumstances. Right now, Jennie was clearly just trying to fulfill a wife's obligations, and if she agreed, then she would be no different from a beast. she didn't want that.

To her, love was more important than marriage; marriage was a formality, a responsibility and an obligation, and even a kind of constraint in Many cases. Of course, it was also a testimony of love, but that was obviously not the case for her and Jennie.

He was already very satisfied with her willingness to try and be with her. As for the so-called obligations between a husband and a wife, he would never pressure her to fulfill them.

"Unless you really love me, you don't have to force yourself to do anything of that!" Lisa couldn't say she didn't want to do it because She did want to do it, but that didn't mean she was going to do it.

Jennie was completely caught off-guard by his explanation, because in her mind, men were not this principled. Not to mention, she had practically offered herself to her.

Stupid Woman!

Realizing that she had been holding herself back this entire time caused all of her anger to dissipate, and internally, she sighed. If she still insisted on being mad at her after knowing this, then she would be an idiot.

Even with her low EQ, Jennie could tell that she was looking out for her. As she said, she still wasn't sure if she loved her or not.

What was love? She had never given it any serious thought. Since her rebirth, her focus had always been on protecting her and giving her a good life, so loving her was not on her mind as much. However, it appeared that to Lisa, love took precedence. Since she cared about it so much, should she also try to care about it a bit more?

Jennie carefully studied her.

The Woman was very attractive, with dashing brows and dazzling eyes. she was pursued and admired by countless fans, which she owed to both his talent and looks.

The Woman boasted a great figure —which she had managed to glimpse not too long ago— that was packed with muscles and was perfectly aesthetic. His figure was capable of making several people drool, including herself.

The Woman had a personality that matched hers. Like her, she was relatively calm and quiet but also independent. It was easy to talk to her. Most of the time, their topics revolved around work, but she found their conversations relaxing rather than boring.

The Woman cooked delicious food that always made her feel at home. Because of her, she was no longer inclined to eat out.

The Woman possessed a benevolent heart. He was fond of small animals and could take care of even that annoying little tortoise well.

The way the tips of his ears would turn red when he was embarrassed was a little endearing. He was also surprisingly principled.

The more she thought about it, the better she seemed, but even so, she couldn't confirm her feelings for her.

"You're a pretty good Woman," she said truthfully.

That filled Lisa with determination and anticipation, as well as a sliver of disappointment. she wasn't sure if she was just saying that to be nice, but at least it wasn't a direct rejection. Maybe she should be satisfied with this much?

No.

Lisa clenched his fists as she made up his mind. It was impromptu, but she decided that she was going to be bold and take advantage of this opportunity to let Jennie know about his feelings for her!

"Jennie, I like you. Since you don't hate me, can you give me a chance to pursue you?"

she didn't know a lot of sugary words. This confession, she gave in a trembling voice, and because she was afraid she would scorn her, she didn't even dare use the word "love."

His confession was a bit sudden and threw Jennie off for a moment, but soon, her mind went on overdrive.

Wasn't this his first official confession and also his first time saying she wanted to pursue her?

Right. All the other times he told her she liked her, she was in a vegetative state. When she was in perfect health, Lisa would act like a block of wood. Because looking at her made her unhappy, Lisa would silently stay away from her.

In this life, even though they shared a closer relationship, the most she had done was make her food. she didn't try to pursue her at all.

But then again, if she were the previous Jennie, then she would most likely be utterly disgusted by his attempts.

"How will you pursue me?"

It must be mentioned that Jennie wasn't new to having suitors, but this was the first time she felt curious and expectant towards being pursued. She wanted to see this new side of Lisa.

The question stunned her; she hadn't expected her to agree so easily. It made her feel like a pie had fallen from the sky and hit her in the head.

"I, I don't have a plan yet, but I'll definitely treat you well. Very well," she replied clumsily yet resolutely.

she really didn't have a plan yet, and she didn't have any experience with pursuing someone either. However, he knew what the basis was, and she made sure to mention it.

"I'll be waiting for it then!"
