Reborn to love [LK]

Chapter 9: Fate

After the deal was decided, Lalisa stood up to leave again. This time, Jungkook decided to leave together with her.

When Lalisa's fingers wrapped around the door handle, a quick image suddenly flashed through her brain, causing her head to hurt.

"Ah," Lalisa put both hands up to her head and held it tightly, trying to get a close look at the image again.

There was a face, but it was too blurry.

"Miss Kim, is there anything wrong?" Jungkook asked. He was extremely worried but couldn't show it too much in case she got suspicious.

The image flashed a second time and this time, Lalisa got a clear view of the face.

The face belonged to a man, and it was extremely handsome; almost perfect.

Bang! The smell of blood around her and the sound of muffled whispers. Footsteps getting louder and a face. That face!

Lalisa swung around, ignoring the burning pain coming from her head. His face!

They walked out of the hotel together and Jungkook had his driver bring Lalisa back to XX Film University.

During the entire car ride, Jungkook's face kept showing up in Lalisa's vision. It was him! The last face she saw before she died was Jungkook.

Lalisa closed her eyes and tried as hard as she could to bring back the memories of her car accident. He showed up after a minute or so. A car door slammed and then he walked over to her.

Was he the one that hit her?

Lalisa opened her eyes in surprise and knew that must be it. In her past life, Jungkook was the one that killed her.

He probably didn't do it on purpose, and Lalisa should thank him, since his accident brought her back to the past, giving her a second chance.

Plus, even if the accident didn't take place, Eunha and her mom, Li Huiran, would definitely figure out a way to get rid of her.

Lalisa smiled as the car came to a stop in front of the school. They met again in a completely different situation, meaning that she was successful in changing things in her second life.

Maybe this was fate.

Lalisa returned to the dorm to see Chaeyoung crying, "What's wrong?"

"Lili!" Chaeyoung screamed as she lunged at her, "Where were you? Why did you disappear for a whole night? I was so worried about you and you didn't answer my calls or respond to my texts! The hotel also said that you weren't there! I thought something happened to you!"

Lalisa wiped away Chaeyoung's tears patiently, something she would have never done in her past life. Chaeyoung had always been very emotional, and Lalisa was usually too lazy to put up with her long and dramatic acts.

However, maybe it was because Lalisa was more mature this time around. So, when she saw Chaeyoung crying like a lost puppy, she couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.

"Don't worry, nothing happened. Well, something did happen, but it isn't anything bad. My phone ran out of battery, so I didn't receive your messages or calls. Oh, stop crying. It's okay, Rosè!"

After a few more minutes, Chaeyoung finally stopped crying and sat down to listen to Lalisa's story.

"What?! Jeon Jungkook! The Jeon Corporation Jeon Jungkook?! The super handsome and scary Jeon Jungkook?"

Lalisa nodded her head, "I know it's surprising. But it would be helpful for us too. Plus, I just started in the entertainment industry, so he will definitely help me."

Chaeyoung nodded her head "Okay. Just make sure you are happy with him and he doesn't bully you."

Lalisa smiled, "Don't worry, he won't."

Chaeyoung calmed down completely after Lalisa agreed to buy fried chicken for her, and she went back to quietly doing her homework.

Lalisa's phone had finished charging, and she realized she had received a message from Jungkook.

She had given him her phone number, but she didn't expect him to text her already.

<Jeon Jungkook: Since we are in a relationship now, you should come and live with me.>

Jungkook had spent the past half an hour deciding how he should phrase the message, and ended up using this domineering tone to match his true personality.

Now, he was staring at the phone with anticipation, waiting for a reply.

Lalisa read the message quickly and replied, <Hello Mr. Jeon, I can't move in with you right now. I am graduating soon, so I will be moving back to the Kim family's mansion. Thank you for the offer.>

Lalisa took a deep breath and closed her phone. The Kim family mansion belonged to her grandfather, who had spent several years designing it and decorating it.

The mansion held all of the good memories from the past. The memories with her mother, father, and grandfather. But now. . . it has been stained by the Li mother and daughter.

Li Eunha and Li Huiran!

It was time for her to take back what was hers. She can't let them dirty the house anymore!

Jungkook immediately picked up his phone when he heard it ring, something he never does during board meetings.

All of the high-level managers turned to look at their boss simultaneously, wondering which important person had sent the message.

The next second, everyone sitting in the room felt a cold breeze fly by and the room temperature seemed to drop.

CEO Jeon's facial expression had just turned from excitement to displeasure, and it was very, very scary.

Everyone inside the room didn't even dare to breathe loudly as they waited for their boss to finish reading the message.

Jungkook read the message over and over again, almost as if it would change if he read it enough times.

Finally, he gave up and his shoulders sank.

<Ok,> he replied dejectedly.
