"What happened, eonnie?" Jinnie asked the angry manager.
Their manager stepped in front of Kei, who was standing beside Jeno.
She showed her an article on her phone. reading the article, Jeno's eyes widened as he looked at Kei with shocked eyes.
Jaemin and Eun came towards them to see what it was all about.
"So this was what you were doing when we were searching for you in the backstage?" The manager asked.
"Eonnie, calm down, let her explain." Eun said, and Jeno sighed and walked away.
But Kei was frozen to her spot.
The others also surrounded to read the article, as Jeno sat back in a corner, looking at Kei with a pissed expression.
"What is this?" Lily asked.
"It wasn't me, I swear!" Kei said.
"Soobin kissed you?" Hae asked to which Kei nodded.
"Why didn't you push him away then?" Jeno asked, still pissed.
"I did!" Kei said. "He accidentally kissed me because a staff pushed him towards me, but I pushed away!"
Jeno scoffed and looked away.
"Why don't you tell the CEO what happened that day?" The manager said. "The comments here also say that dispatch was either watching on you both, because no reporter is allowed to be backstage, or either it was a sasaeng...which means dispatch took this picture from the dark web."
"I still don't believe this..." Jeno said.
"Jeno, stop being salty." Eun said. "Even if he kissed her or she kissed him, either way, it's dispatch's fault. It broke the laws."
"Calm down." Jaemin said to a tensed Eun. "Let's go back."
"Pack up all your things, and Kei, you're coming with me. The CEO wants to talk to you." The manager said.
↳
Back at the company, the manager and Kei walked inside the CEO's office.
"Hm...Kei...what do you have to say?" The CEO asked. "Look, Soobin's company already denied it, and said it was all an accident because a staff pushed him towards you, is that true?"
"Yes, sir." She nodded. "We are nothing more than friends."
"Okay, I will deny the rumours. You may leave now, and be careful with such things. You just debuted and these things will ruin your group's reputation, and we won't be able to earn money." He said.
"Of course." She said, rather sarcastically.
What was she even expecting? The CEO, of SM, to not care about money and care about the artist? Hah, she got clowned.
