After the drug scandal was exposed, Jennie hid at a friend's house, too afraid to make an appearance. Especially after seeing her mother suffering on her behalf, she felt slightly guilty.
However, she never imagined things would continue to amplify. In the morning, everyone was talking about the drug scandal. Then by the time afternoon came around, the media started spreading news of Jennie being violent at school. At just 14-years-old, she had instigated others to beat up a female classmate until her left leg became disabled. Afterward, she changed her name and moved to Seoul.
As soon as this news was released, everyone was stunned. Who would have thought, a 14-year-old child could be so bad. On top of everything, the police quickly proved that the person that took drugs was Jennie. And if that wasn't bad enough, they also found out that Jennie's parents had changed her age to two years younger in fear that she would be locked up for violence. In reality, she was 16-years-old when the incident happened, which meant, right now, she had just passed 18! In an instant, Jennie's name had been completely tarnished in Seoul. Not only this, police were searching everywhere for her.
Looking at all the explosive news, Jennie was in a complete panic. She walked back and forth inside her friend's house in fear. She no longer had anyone to lean on and no one to turn to. What was she to do?
Her friend was also a model. They met during the Model Search Competition. After seeing the disgusting things Jennie had done on the news, she grabbed all of Jennie's belongings and threw them in front of her.
"Leave, Jennie. You are shocking. I can't believe I actually helped you defame Cha Jooeun in the past, only to be slapped so badly in the face."
Jennie was completely out of options. Seeing her friend no longer wanted to help her, she immediately knelt on the floor and begged. "Jisoo-yah I beg of you, don't kick me out. If I go out there, I'm dead. The reporters and police won't let me off."
After hearing her words, Jisoo sneered before picking up her phone and calling the police. "I must have been blind to become friends with you. If you don't leave, then just wait here for the police to come to you."
Seeing Jisoo ready to call the police, Jennie immediately stood up and tried to snatch the phone out of her hand. Jisoo sensed her movement and quickly pushed her away. Jennie stumbled a little before falling to the ground. However, her face scraped past the corner of the coffee table as she fell, leaving a bloody gash across her left cheek.
Jennie instinctively placed her hand on her left cheek. She was in so much pain she almost knocked out. However, her friend did not get off the phone. Afterward, she also called the ambulance before saying to Jennie. "When the police arrive, I will truthfully tell them how you got hurt, because I am not like you."
After speaking, she pulled out her medical supplies to try and help stop Jennie's bleeding. Of course, with such a long horizontal gash across her left cheek, unless she did plastic surgery, she would definitely be left with a hideous and obvious scar.
7 PM.
The police finally arrived at Jisoo's home and captured Jennie. As for Jennie's injury, Jisoo recalled the entire incident from start to finish. Such an honest and clear-minded child was immediately praised by the netizens.
Not only had this, maybe because of karma, out of all the places that could have been injured, Jennie actually injured on the face. The netizens ridiculed that she had used her face to cause so much trouble for Cha Jooeun, so now that she had been injured on the face, it must be a punishment from God.
What goes around, comes around!
As for Jennie's mother, after watching her daughter being captured, she fainted and was sent straight to the hospital overnight. Her pre-existing illnesses worsened.
Entire South Korea was reporting on Jennie's news. A young 18-year-old girl had so many hidden secrets, it was frightening. The news made many people reflect on themselves, especially in regards to parenting.
Hyomin was also at the hospital. Through the TV in her room, she paid close attention to the development of Jennie's news. At this moment, apart from being shocked, she was extremely scared. Since Jennie's fate was so pitiful, she couldn't help but start to worry about herself.
She had just lost her job and her household's main source of income had ceased. Yet, her mother was paralyzed in bed. Although she had a younger brother, he only made enough to fend for himself. From now on, what was she to do?
She had to quickly find a job. Fortunately, in the eyes of the outside world, they believed she had resigned willingly from Sublime rather than fired. So she didn't expect it to be hard to find a decent job. However, she never imagined, the police would end up asking her in for an interrogation. Since there were so many witnesses at Octagon Club that saw her arguing with Jennie, it was unavoidable that she too would be suspected of taking drugs.
Hyomin desperately tried to explain the situation, but the police insisted on giving her a drug test. At this moment, Jennie's incident was already at the cusp of public opinion, so with Hyomin being taken in by the police, the public couldn't help but suspect Hyomin also took drugs. The two were quickly enveloped in their stinky reputation together.
Inside the icy cold police station, Hyomin had no friends or relatives she could contact. In the end, she bet on Bohyun and gave him a call. At first, she had given up hope, but as the clock ticked over to the second half of the night, he finally appeared.
After all that she had been through in the past 2 days, Hyomin's self-esteem had been completely deflated. So she didn't care about the humiliation as she said to Bohyun, "Bail me out. In exchange, I will tell you an important secret."
Bohyun scrunched up his eyebrows as he instructed his lawyer to bail Hyomin out before leading her to the car.
Hyomin was silent at first. In the end, she couldn't hold back her tears any longer as she burst out crying in Bohyun's car. He looked at her. Without saying any comforting words, he simply handed her a tissue.
"I can't compete with Cha Jooeun. I admit defeat." Hyomin said with a choked-up voice. "I've decided to leave Seoul. I can't go up against her, I can only hide."
"You don't need to..."
"Yes I do, Bohyun." Hyomin dried her tears and lifted her head to look at Bohyun seriously. "In order to prevent President Seo from kicking you out of Sublime, you must suppress Kangjun and Cha Jooeun. Otherwise, as soon as Yeji trains up someone new, she will heartlessly make you leave."
"As for the secret I promised you, the secret is, Cha Jooeun has someone backing her!"
Bohyun was shocked.
"Editor Choi told me this. And reality has proven, what she said was true. I really don't want to throw myself back in the mess. Whoever it is, seems to have already been angered by me."
"This secret, maybe you will have some use for it. Of course, no matter who the person backing Cha Jooeun is, we at least know she is no longer single. I'll leave this secret with you. You've helped me so much in the past, let me pay you back this once."
After hearing this, Bohyun pulled out a gold card from his wallet and handed it to Hyomin. "No matter where you go, you need some money just in case."
Hyomin looked at Bohyun as tears suddenly trickled down her face. "What's the point of all the fighting? In the end, all I'm left with is nothing. Hopefully what I've told you will come of use!"
