Lisa's POV
Jackson called me right after I finished dressing up and I haven't talked to Jennie since I woke up. I don't even know if she knew what happened last night.
I grab a beanie and put it on while I keep the phone on my right ear while listening to Jackson who keeps on talking about random things. I don't know why he's doing this but I just let him anyway.
"Lisa let's go" Mr . Kang said so I nodded and put my Chanel bag on which is also given by Jennie. I'm walking next to Jennie to the elevator and she's clearly avoiding my gaze and it seems like she's thinking so I don't want to bother her, plus Jackson hasn't ended the call yet.
Once we're in the lobby Mr. Kang deals with everything before he leads us out of the hotel.
"Jennie" I heard someone call from behind so all of us turn to look at the guy. The same guy from last night.
"Are you going out? " he asked and I look over at Jennie who's also surprised but she's way more surprised than all of us since she stopped and just stare at the guy.
"Jennie" Mr. Kang said making her snap out of her daze
"Uh, Jennie I forgot to tell you last night" the guy said pausing a bit while he brushes his hair out of his face and shows his smile to Jennie which makes me want to gag "there's like a dinner for all of us tonight. It's not formal, more like gathering and hanging out you know" he said making me roll my eyes as I look over at Mr . Kang who's also waiting for that guy to continue what he's trying to say "you should come...It'll be fun and I'll also be there" I huffed and turn to look at Mr . Kang again and he caught my eyes so he nodded and was about to inform Jennie that we're leaving

"What's happening? " I almost jumped out when I heard Jackson from my phone which I almost forgot was there
"The guy from last night's talking to Jennie" I said enough for the both of us to hear.
"Sure, I'll be there" Jennie said making me freeze on my spot
"Lisa" Jackson said but I can't seem to find any words right now "Lisa, give the phone to Mr. Kang" he said so I put my phone down and hand it over to Mr. Kang while Jennie's still staring at that guy.
"Yes Jackson.... alright" he said, after a few seconds. He ended the call and gave me y phone back. "Jennie" he taps Jennie's shoulder softly and Jennie turn around a bit to look at Mr. Kang "Jackson ordered to take Lisa home. He told me to stay with you tho" he said and for the first time since earlier Jennie turn her gaze towards me and I knew from the way she's looking at me. She knew that she messed up.
I sighed and look over at Mr. Kang nodding towards him while the other guard leads me towards the car and open up the door for me. Jennie didn't say anything and neither did I. I look out of the tinted car window and saw that Jennie's still looking at the car and that guy's still smiling from ear to ear.

The whole flight consists of me sleeping and staring out of the plane's window. When a couple of guards and I got out of the plane they immediately lead me to the main entrance and I saw Jackson standing there with some guards around him as well
"You look mad" I said as I approached him and he crossed his arms and furrowed his brows more

"I am mad" he said and I knew that he must be half-joking but he's a bit mad from what happened
"Well don't be... It doesn't suit you" I said and smiled so he sighed and nodded getting my bag from me.
"Let's go" he said and we started walking out of the airport. He then leads me to his car while some of the guards followed us behind.
"Where do you want to go? " he asked while I'm just looking out of the window
"I don't know... " I said honestly
"I can treat you somewhere... Food or whatever you want," he said trying to lighten up my mood
"I'm not hungry... Maybe next time" I said trying to give him a small smile so he just nodded and he drove us to their villa. I look over at him while he pulled over
"Stay here for now... So I can just call you out when I want to play" he said making me chuckle. We went in and were greeted by their maids. He leads me upstairs to a guest room and lets me rest for as long as I want.

I didn't know that I fell asleep and I woke up from the paws on my face. I open up my eyes and saw Leo on my face.
"Leo, when did you get here? " I asked like he's gonna answer me.
"I asked someone to get them from the penthouse so you wouldn't be that sad"Jackson said... I sit up from laying down and saw Luca on the floor while Jackson has Kuma on his arm.
"You don't have to but... Thank you" I said and put Leo down beside me.
"I don't take thank you... Let's go downstairs I cooked some food and after that let's go play some video games. Your choice so you'll have the chance to defeat me once in a while " he said making me roll my eyes while he just laughed and put his hand out to help me get out of the bed.

8 194I was Reborn as the Villainess but I will become a Great Sage
Nova Allandis, formerly known as Suna Lee, remembers her previous life and realizes her current life is as the villainess in a fantasy novel she once read. However, as Suna, she was the laziest person with no motivation, possibly attributed to the fact that she didn't go into a major that was her strongest suit. Now that she has a high affinity towards magic and wishes to go into it, will she be able to change her lazy self for the better, or will she go back to being lazy like the villainess in the novel? Can she become a Great Sage and live life happily this time? Note: This is not a "revenge of the villainess" novel, but rather a "rise to fame" novel. A/N: This is just an experimental novel and criticisms are much appreciated, but I'm extremely defensive of my own work and characters. If you are here to put down a novel, please remember, first of all, you are not paying anything to read this, and second of all, authors are humans too.
