Trial Marriage Husband (Pangyo Couple version)

Chapter 82: You Also Want Cha Jooeun?

Although she had received negativity out of the blue and there are mixed reactions online, Jooeun didn't let it affect her mood. She changed into a Bohemian-style maxi dress and relaxed on the deck of a yacht with Jeonghwan, who's wearing a casual white suit. All she brought along is a camera; even her phone is left in the drawers of the villa.

Jeonghwan looked down at her as he wrapped her in a warm embrace. At first, he thought she is forcing herself to stay strong. Jooeun is indeed calm like she had completely stripped herself of her model identity.

"Do you really not want to return home first?"

"Why do we need to return straight away?" Jooeun turned her head and questioned Jeonghwan. "President Lee, did you think I would easily give up on the holiday that I made you work so hard towards? My career is important, but right now, you are the most important."

Jeonghwan gazed at Jooeun as he planted a kiss on her lips.

"Do not feel burdened and have faith in me. I will find a solution."

Jeonghwan nodded before grabbing the back of her head, he couldn't help but deepen his kiss. Amongst the beautiful scenery of the Seine River, the couple indulged in a passionate kiss as their bodies overlapped each other.

In an instant, the 'Entertainment Industry's Big Boss' and the 'Outdated Model' no longer existed. All that's left, a simple husband and wife, strolling through the streets of France hand-in-hand. As they strolled, they happened to come across a small alley filled with couples that are kissing. They were stunned for a moment before looking at each other and smiling. In their eyes, there's no trace of awkwardness. It seemed although the couple didn't have a heart-wrenching love story, their relationship would still be long-lasting.

The couple continued to stroll around casually for the rest of the day. After returning to the villa, apart from Jooeun's camera being almost full, Jeonghwan's hands were also filled with Jooeun's belongings. But he didn't mind. Because this is a rare moment of relaxation in his life and he felt extremely fortunate. This amazing woman! Because of her, it felt like his life had once again found meaning.

That night, Jeonghwan embraced Jooeun in their huge bathtub. Both of them had their eyes closed as they enjoyed the peace and quiet of the moment. After being silent for a while, Jeonghwan finally reached out his hand and touched Jooeun's partially wet hair as he leaned her closer to him. "Let's return tomorrow."

"Huh?" Jooeun slowly opened her eyes as she questioned him.

"One day is enough for me. I know what kind of situation you are in, but since you won't let me interfere, I am really worried about you. Miss Cha, don't you know I am your fan?"

As Jooeun's status was hard-earned, it's very important to Jeonghwan. She had been walking on thin ice to get to this point and had given so much, he didn't want her to let it go to waste.

"People often say, 'The amount of people that like you, is equivalent to the amount of people that hate you; the amount of people that adore you, is equivalent to the amount of people that are waiting to see you humiliated', Jeonghwan, I am well aware of this."

Jeonghwan hugged Jooeun tightly without a word. After she finally fell asleep, he got up to phone Taejoo. "Have you found out who released the information?"

Taejoo assumed Jeonghwan would ask this as he promptly replied. "Sublime's manager, Park Hyomin. Her younger sister is a model signed with Sublime who was originally invited to do the opening for the Luxury show. However, she was replaced with the Madam. Later on, CN added oil to the fire by also spreading some false rumors."

"Since it's Sublime, we'll leave it for now."

As for CN, their days were numbered. After all, once Jooeun was signed with Sublime, she would have plenty of opportunities to teach these self-righteous people a lesson. Most importantly, Jooeun's ultimate goal at the moment is to completely defeat Yonghwa and Shinhye; by holding back, she would make them doubt themselves.

Jooeun predicted Jeonghwan would phone Taejoo about her situation, so she isn't in a deep sleep. She sat up and wrapped her arms around Jeonghwan's waist. "Are you not going to listen to anything I say?"

"Just trying to gain some important information so my mind can be at ease." Jeonghwan smiled.

"President Lee, I think you must not be tired enough." Jooeun said with a double meaning. Her nose brushed past his back muscles, sending tingles down his spine; the passion in his body is reignited. "Come, let's do some exercise in bed."

10 PM in France; 5 AM in Seoul.

Yonghwa awoke from his sleep. He walked over to the guest bedroom with a frustrated expression. He could see Shinhye lying under the glow of the moonlight. However, the thought of this woman sleeping with another man, made his heart fill with hatred. He's so angry his eyes started to turn red.

Online, news of Jooeun using men to advance her career is spreading like wildfire. At the same time, Shinhye had just been caught cheating. Yonghwa endured for half a second. In the end, he couldn't help but pick up Shinhye's phone to see the messages Mr. Jang had sent her.

Mr. Jang wanted her to calm Yonghwa down while he tried to find a way for her to break free from his control. Scrolling down, Yonghwa saw Shinhye's response and fell apart.

"He actually wants to keep the child. I'm really not sure who the child will look like after it's born."

Yonghwa clenched his fist before saving the phone number. Rather than waiting to be dumped, used, and treated like a stepping stone, it would be better for him to swap Shinhye for something more useful. So he made a phone call to Mr. Jang as he held in his humiliation and demanded.

"I can let Shinhye go, under one condition!"

The man smiled shadily. He knew Yonghwa would do this, so he calmly responded. "Go ahead."

"Any competition or awards presentations that you are a judge in, if there is someone from CN, you will need to guarantee them an award!"

Mr. Jang is silent for a while, before laughing out loud. "It's just Park Shinhye, as if I would do something like this for her. Unless. . ."

"Unless what?"

"How about you add in Cha Jooeun. All along, I had thought she's pure and clean. But it turns out, she's just another cheap model that uses men to advance herself. Since that is the case, why don't you let me play with her? I can give her some benefits."

"You also want Jooeun?" Yonghwa's voice got louder and more aggressive.

"Both women have betrayed you. Using them to exchange for opportunities for your newcomers is worth it right?"

Yonghwa's eyes deepened. His chestnut-colored pupils contained a sense of hatred. So it turned out this old sleazebag not only slept with Shinhye, but he also had his eyes set on Jooeun.

On the night of the Bright Night Gala, he was frightened by Jeonghwan, so he was careful. But now that he found out Jooeun used men to advance, he, of course, did not have to hold back.

"Deal?"

"Words mean nothing, we need to sign an agreement!" Yonghwa is worried Mr. Jang would lie to him.

"That's fine with me, you select a meeting place."

Yonghwa's voice echoed from his bedroom. At this time, Shinhye was leaning against the door listening to the conversation without making a sound. She did not know that Yonghwa had sold her off, all she heard is Jooeun's name.
