Trial Marriage Husband (Pangyo Couple version)

Chapter 136: The Climax is yet to come!

Hyomin slightly turned her body, revealing one side of her face to Kangjun. The corners of her mouth curved upwards as the reflection on her glasses made her appear dark and complex.

When had she ever been afraid?

Kangjun didn't say anymore. After all, a good show was about to start.

"I'll just wait and see you get kicked out of Sublime." After speaking, Hyomin stepped out of the lift with Im Nayoung, leaving Kangjun on his own. A helpless look appeared on his handsome face.

On the other side of Sublime, inside the secret waiting room. Minjung was playing with her phone as she looked at Jooeun. "Are you nervous?"

Jooeun was resting with her eyes closed as she shook her head. "I just want to see how Hyomin's expression will be like."

"Need we say more? Her expression will definitely go from extreme happiness to lifeless." Just the thought of Hyomin in frustration made Minjung satisfied. They had already clashed too many times. She had to give it to Hyomin for always having so much energy. Even after being defeated by Jooeun multiple times, she still managed to quickly bounce back with a determination to stand in Jooeun's way. Where did this courage of hers come from?

"This time, Yeji will not let her off the hook so easily." Jooeun opened her eyes, they were bright and dazzling.

"Of course not! If my staff tried to threaten me in such a way, I would make them leave immediately. A while ago when Big Boss' authority was provoked, didn't he end up quietening them down?"

"These words, you can only say in front of me." Jooeun warned. She wanted to make sure Minjung didn't say anything that might be used against them later.

"Don't worry, I'll just sit back and wait for the show." Minjung zipped her mouth, gesturing she would remain quiet before picking up her phone.

For now, let Hyomin continue dreaming.

2 PM. The official start of the press conference.

Just before Bohyun entered the hall, Hyomin pulled him aside and reconfirmed. "Are you sure President Seo will get rid of Seo Kangjun today? If that's the case, then why didn't she cancel the press conference?"

"She already confirmed with me that she will be announcing something else, so there is no reason to cancel it. Plus shouldn't we give Kangjun a glimmer of hope?" Bohyun was dressed in a black handmade cropped suit which made him appear tall and handsome like a British gentleman.

Hyomin looked around the hall and nodded in agreement. "Of course, I want to see him be stripped of his pride."

Bohyun smiled as he strode over to the entrance of the hall and waited for Yeji's arrival.

Sublime's huge conference hall, at this moment, was packed with curious reporters as Bohyun escorted Yeji to her seat at the front of the stage. In reality, the reason for the huge response from the media was not only because Yeji had promoted the press conference well, but also because everyone was curious about Seo Kangjun and Kim Jiwon's scandal a few years back. To this day, no one had found out what truly happened.

Dressed in a classy and professional suit, Yeji appeared smart and competent. On her left sat some of Sublime's higher-ups and on her right sat Bohyun. As for Hyomin, she was currently standing below the stage, watching as things developed.

"Friends of the media, I hope you are well." Yeji greeted through the microphone. "Firstly, I would like to welcome you all here. Sublime Artist Agency has decided to hold this press conference today because of 3 pieces of great news which we would like to share with you all."

"Number one: Sublime Artist Agency has been making preparations to enter the film industry. We are currently raising funds for our first film and hope that you can show some support."

"Number two: Sublime Artist Agency's subsidiary company will be officially in operation at the end of this month. We are currently on a recruitment drive, if there are any capable professionals out there, we would love to have you join our family."

After listening to two consecutive announcements from Yeji, Hyomin began to relax a little. She was confident since Yeji had not mentioned Kangjun yet, she must have decided not to mention him at all and cover up the news of his homecoming with something else. So she subconsciously glanced at Bohyun, their plan seemed to have worked. However, at this time, Yeji suddenly announced the third piece of good news.

"The third piece of good news, which I am extremely proud to announce, is that our most capable manager, Mr. Seo Kangjun, will be returning to our embrace as a top manager and continuing to assist us with his skills." While saying this, Yeji stood up out of her seat and gestured towards the entrance with her right hand.

The media's attention was directed over. There, standing in the doorway, was Seo Kangjun wearing a white suit. He looked like a poised royal prince that had stepped out of a painting. Hyomin and Bohyun's expressions suddenly flushed with red. Or should we say, Yeji's move was like a fiery hot slap across the two's face?

Bohyun looked down like he was deep in thought. Meanwhile, Hyomin glared resentfully at Yeji.

Was Yeji really not afraid that she would run off with her resources? Impossible...

Hyomin was flustered as she watched Kangjun take one step at a time towards the stage. In fact, if one took the slightest notice of her, they would have realized she was currently trembling.

Yeji glared at Hyomin coldly like she was looking at a clown. It was not until Kangjun reached the stage that she finally continued speaking. "I'll now hand the microphone over to Manager Seo so he can continue announcing the good news."

Kangjun looked at everyone and gave a bow before straightening up his body and speaking in high spirits. "Being able to return to Sublime and President Seo's side is an extremely heartwarming and touching thing. So I have brought along a gift for her."

After speaking, it was Kangjun's turn to gesture towards the entrance as everyone's attention was once again turned towards the doorway. A tall figure appeared at the end of the red carpet. She appeared stylishly elegant and possessed her own unique beauty; unlike her usual plain style.

"Oh God...Cha Jooeun!"

"What is this? Why is Cha Jooeun here?" The reporters were in a frenzy. Cha Jooeun is like a legend, there were traces of her everywhere even when she wasn't around. She didn't even make an appearance during the entire Jennie Kim incident, yet at this moment, why was she at Sublime's press conference?

"That's right, it's Cha Jooeun. Seoul's former top model, the winner of the Special Contribution Award at this year's Annual Model Awards, and currently the hottest trend. Today, I will officially announce that she is signing on with Sublime Artist Agency." Kangjun's words were charismatic as he hyped up the atmosphere.

"As for me, my first mission upon returning to Sublime is to be Cha Jooeun's personal manager. I have faith in her. She is still a superstar on the runway and she will only get better." As Kangjun spoke these words he looked mockingly at Hyomin and Bohyun. A look of shame and reluctance appeared on their faces.

Kangjun thought he heard them say, how dare he bring Cha Jooeun?! How dare he sign her behind our backs! How could Yeji trick us like this?

But was this already too much for them? The Climax was yet to come!
