Frans nurtured llisa in this way, saying that his love was sincere.
He just selfishly wanted to make llisa his puppet. If anything happened in the future, llisa's identity would be a bargaining chip for him!
Leonard's breathing was unstable, and his fingertips trembled slightly as he pulled a cigarette out of his trouser pocket.
He was suddenly very grateful for the blessing of fate, because if not for that coincidence, he would never have t llisa.
This is fate and luck.
...
In the waiting room, after Leonard left, Frans took a deep breath.
He relaxed his palm, and pulled out the shards from his hand without changing his face. "Jean, I've shown my sincerity, how about you?"
"What do you want?"
Frank pressed his lips together. The bloody piece of glass was thrown onto the table. "I have no intention of going against you, but you have disrupted my life, and I want you to restore all things you have ruined. You and I are both in the dostic business field, and I don't want anything from you. I just want you to promise!"
"Today, I have told you everything about llisa, and I want to emphasize that the matter will end in this place. Jean, you've investigated , and you should know what I've been doing all these years."
"Even though I'm not a good person, I've never done anything that is really against the law. At most, only minor offenses I did. But I can't fault it, living on the border between countries is hard."
After he finished speaking, Jean's thick pupils narrowed slightly. "What promise do you want?"
Frans said earnestly in an instant, "In regards to saving llisa, you won't do anything to in the future. It's not difficult, is it? You are still the young master of a big family in Surabaya, whereas I am in the jade industry."
"No matter what llisa did for , I saved her life. Without , she would have died five years ago! I believe you are capable of destroying everything I have, but Jean, you should also know one thing…"
"In this world, good and bad are just a matter of opinion. If you get in my way again in the future, do you think I will give up? I believe that the data you investigated is sufficient to prove that I cannot be touched by just anyone. Besides, if sothing were to happen to , many people would be willing to eliminate the problem for . Therefore, from now on, I hope we have nothing to do with each other. This promise shouldn't be difficult for you!"
After that, Jean didn't speak and just looked at him deeply with cold eyes.
Seeing this, Frans licked the corners of his dry mouth and smiled, "You don't need to doubt my intentions, you won't get anything for killing . Instead, I prefer to call this a transaction. Even though I've done a lot of bad things, at least I'm a person who always keeps my word."
"So if I say that I will let go of this matter, I will definitely let it go. If it's not enough, I could make another deal with you. It was my recklessness that the Widjaya family got poor quality items back then. After today, I will send the jewelry back to the Widjaya family as compensation, this sincerity should be enough."
"Jean, I have no intention of threatening you, but I am the one who licks the blood on the edge of the knife, and it is not easy for to be where I am today. Even if you can cover the sky with one hand, it's hard to guarantee the sky will remain peaceful forever. Rather than making an enemy, I prefer to make peace with those who are less than happy with . Maybe we can et again if you need my help in the future."
At this ti, Jean slightly lifted his thin lips, and sighed lightly. "Before I give you my promise, there is soone who wants to see you!"
Frans frowned. "Who?"
As the voice fell, there was a sound of soft footsteps coming from the direction of the bar counter in the lounge. "!"
llisa looked impressive in her bartender costu, she walked from the direction of the bar to where the two of them were.
Not far behind her stood Clifford in a black suit.
When Frans first saw llisa, his bloody palms curled up tightly again.
Perhaps he had never thought of eting her in such a situation, and there was clearly a hint of panic in his eyes.
Frans secretly suppressed his thoughts and turned his head to look at the opposite Jean with so reluctance. "Why let her co..."
For years, he had been hiding behind the scenes, and he didn't want lisa to know what's inside his head.
At that mont, Jean noticed Frans' slightly irritated look, and said lightly, "That restless feeling has been residing inside her for so long, and I've always wanted to give her a chance to et you to learn the truth."
Frans pressed the corners of his lips and didn't say anything.
Jean slowly stood up. "After talking to her, I will give you the promise you want!"
Hearing this, Frans's eyes blinked, but he didn't argue.
Before Jean left the room, he looked at Clifford for a mont. The man then nodded respectfully.
His only job tonight was to protect lisa's safety.
After a while, lisa stood on the bench. In front of the table, her eyes were a little uncertain when he saw Frans? under the dim light. Her expression was a little unreal.
Frans didn't see her figure, his eyes were still on his bloody palms, and his mouth ridiculed her. "You're pregnant, don't stand for too long, have a seat!"
lissa's eyebrows suddenly shot up, and as she sat down, her eyes turned cold. She narrowed her eyes. "Martin and Herri… you arranged for them to be by my side?"
She had been hiding behind the bar from the start, so every word she spoke clearly sounded in her ears.
After five years had passed, she only discovered that everyone she t along the way was arranged by this man.
llisa doubted herself more than once, was she too stupid or Frans' thods were too cruel?
She never thought that Frans would find out about her condition and whereabouts through the people around her.
Frans pulled the corner of his mouth nonchalantly, he didn't see llisa from start to finish.
Hearing her question, his fist loosened slightly, his eyebrows raised and his lips lifted. "Yes, what else do you want to ask?"
llisa sat across from him, breathing shakily. "How did you know I was pregnant?"
She didn't even tell Lilia about this, except for the doctor who examined her at the ti.
Not to ntion that she and Frans had never t once, so she couldn't believe that the man could see her pregnancy.
When llisa finished speaking, Frans did not imdiately answer.
He rubbed the bloodstains on his finger with his fingertips before he chuckled softly. "Initially, I didn't want you to give birth to this child… But I felt it was too cruel so I asked Doctor Verdy to tell about your pregnancy."
He knew everything about lissa, and of course he would not miss anything, not even when llisa quietly went to the hospital for examination.
At this ti, llisa's breath suddenly beca faster. "Are you not tired of doing so many arrangents? You saved back then, and if you didn't do this way, I should be very grateful to you. But you…"
"llisa!" Frans interrupted as he got emotional.. "No matter how many things I did, I saved your life. That's an undeniable fact! Instead of thanking , you ca to question ? Do you think it's appropriate?"
