Chapter 72 - Sense of achievement (1/2)

"Pretending to be angry and disappointed at you will let them drop their guards for a while," Dowon voiced out. "Even I can not directly challenge Lee Minjoon's power."

Understanding Dowon, Jinhee nodded.

A big, bright smile appeared on her face as she asked, "So, are you not angry at me?"

"I want to throw this pen at you, but I'm resisting," Dowon voiced out with a glare directed at her way. Jinhee gulped; Dowon was truly scary.

"How unaware of your surroundings are you? Didn't I warn you to be at guard at all times?" Dowon scolded.

"Grandpa Dowon, can't you cut me some slack? I still an inexperienced teen after all!" Jinhee pouted.

"That's true," Dowon replied. "Maybe I should get you engaged to that Taeho. He'll be efficient in keeping you safe."

A frown appeared on Jinhee's face hearing that. Not that she doubted Lee Dowon's judging skills when it came to human, she was surprised on how he earned his trust. Most definitely, a man like Han Taeho would appear sketchy to Lee Jinhee.

"Grandpa, don't you think it's too suspicious for a man like Han Taeho to agree to get engaged to me?" Jinhee questioned, wearing a serious expression.

Although she recalled Taehee's words from the other day, she still wanted to be careful about the entire matter.

"What man like Han Taeho? Both of you definitely suit each other. That man won't mistreat you, and if something goes wrong, you still have me," Dowon voiced out.

'Grandpa, you can't do anything against him.'

Nonetheless, warmth filled Jinhee's heart as she heard his words, and subconsciously, she just nodded. How could she disregard this in her previous life?

"Moonstone Enterprise requires an heir," Lee Dowon voiced out.
