Afterward, Jooeun left the studio. However, as soon as she boarded Jeonghwan's car, she was immediately pulled into a warm embrace as a pair of lips pressed down against hers. She adjusted to the sudden action and enjoyed the familiar warmth. She relaxed her body and returned Jeonghwan's passionate kiss. It wasn't until the couple felt breathless did he finally let her go.

He rubbed the tip of his nose against her and mumbled with a sexy and husky voice beside her lips. "This is the last time. If you do this again, I will definitely tell the whole world you are my woman."

Jooeun grabbed onto Jeonghwan's handsome face and smiled. "Whether you say it or not, I am still your woman. From head to toe, I am completely yours."

Jeonghwan reluctantly let her go as he started the car. "Tomorrow, GK will release a statement explaining the incident at DDP. You don't need to worry about it."

"Of course I won't worry. But I have a feeling Yeji wouldn't easily be convinced by Taejoo and Minjung unnie's relationship. After all, from the moment her grandfather was captured, she didn't mention Taejoo oppa at all. Plus after taking the risk to call you tonight and giving you the chance to admit to being my relative, the fact that you didn't take this opportunity to reveal yourself, someone else may have noticed your voice at DDP was very similar to the one on Radio Star."

"Are you blaming me?" Jeonghwan couldn't help but laugh.

"Uh-huh, I am. I already prepared myself mentally to admit to the whole world you are my husband."

"You weren't 100% prepared. You knew I wouldn't do it." Jeonghwan glanced at Jooeun and saw through to her heart. "But I am still very happy. My wife that appears to be aloof from the world finally feels the pride that comes from showing off I am her husband. Sorry Mrs. Cha, I didn't allow you to become the hottest topic overnight."

Jooeun couldn't help but smile slightly as she leaned her head on Jeonghwan's body. "I want to turn you into a part of the audience. And do you know what I most want to say to the audience? Lee Jeonghwan belongs to me. I adore him and love him. I want to take care of him and understand him for the rest of my life. Don't any of you dare to even dream about being with him."

Jeonghwan slightly turned his head. He gazed into Jooeun's eyes as he drove. Her amber eyes glowed under the dim street lights. Jooeun never thought of herself as the weak one in the relationship and never expected to be spoilt. She simply loved Jeonghwan the way he loved her. Even if she had to exhaust herself, she did not hesitate. In the past 32 years, this was the first time Jeonghwan experienced what it was like to be spoilt!

...

"Jooeun is going around acting all ambiguous. Not long ago we found out she had someone hidden at home, now she is involved with this married man." Bohyun analyzed Radio Star's interview as he watched it repeatedly with Yeji. "But she's never admitted to having a relationship with a man."

Yeji stood beside the window and looked out, her expression was a little dark. "Too bad we don't have any evidence."

"She is, after all, an artist of Sublime. If we want to follow her and get photographic evidence, it's definitely easier than waiting for the reporters to discover something. As long as she has something to hide, we will eventually get a photo of it."

"In that case, right now we have two lines to follow. Firstly, we need to find out if Jang Minjung and Park Taejoo's relationship is real and if Jooeun has anything to do with GK. Secondly, we need to uncover the identity of Jooeun's man and expose their relationship. All along she's denied having a boyfriend, but it turns out her personal life is such a mess."

"Bohyun, give the opening of the Yves Saint Laurent show at London Fashion Week to Jooeun. Only when she lets her guard down can we find an opportunity to take advantage of her."

"If nothing happened to Ahn Hani, this show would have been hers." Bohyun sighed regretfully. "Tomorrow, I will find some time to visit her."

Yeji twitched her lips. She originally wanted to say something. But at this moment, she received a phone call from Kangjun. She picked up the phone and he simply said one sentence.

"President Seo, we are coming to pick up Minjung's grandfather. You don't need to take care of him anymore."

Yeji scoffed before hanging up the phone and instructed Bohyun. "Go release him!"

Go release him...

Just 3 simple words were enough to express Yeji's extreme contempt and anger.

"But..."

"Jooeun's already taken things this far, can I really refuse?"

She was the mighty CEO of Sublime, yet she was being pressured by a mere model to compromise and suffer. Bohyun looked at her with a dark expression as he turned to leave the office. He then drove home to retrieve Minjung's grandfather. However, before he handed the old man over, he said to him. "For the sake of fame and fortune, your granddaughter is selling her body and being someone's mistress. Old man, you better pay attention and persuade her not to go down the wrong path."

The old man was suddenly so angry his face turned pale. Afterward, Bohyun delivered the old man to Sublime. Jooeun, Kangjun, and Minjung were sitting in the waiting room. Their eyes met as Bohyun spoke coldly. "I've brought him back without a single hair out of place."

"How's President Seo's mood?" Jooeun asked Bohyun.

"What do you think?"

"Don't step over my bottom line again." Jooeun simply replied.

Although Bohyun didn't look pleased, he had no insults to throw back at her. He simply told Jooeun. "Get ready to go to London and walk the opening of YSL's fashion show. You've been lacking international resources. So now that you've successfully gotten rid of Ahn Hani, all the best resources will naturally be split between you and Shin Suhyun."

After hearing Bohyun's words, she felt he sounded a bit ironic. Why would Yeji want to give her resources?

"I will follow up on this." Kangjun immediately said to Bohyun.

Bohyun scoffed before he turned around and drove off after boarding his car. Jooeun watched as he disappeared into the distance and suddenly said to Kangjun. "Although I can shake up Yeji's anger, I can't shake up her foundation."

"Well, at least you destroyed Ahn Hani. Sublime will need a good few years to train another model. It won't be easy for them." Kangjun comforted.

"Then why is Yeji being so generous as to allow me to appear on the international runway?"

"It's definitely not because she wants you to succeed." Kangjun no longer thought of Yeji as his friend.

Jooeun turned and glanced at Kangjun without a word. Meanwhile, Minjung immediately ran up to embrace her only living relative. "Grandfather, are you OK?"

Grandfather Jang was stunned for a moment before pushing Minjung away and looking at her with a sad and complex look. "Minjung-ah, grandfather wants to talk to you in private."

"Let's go then. I'll escort you guys home." Kangjun opened the door of his van and allowed the three people to board. Because the van first passed Nine One Hannam, Jooeun was dropped off first to get some rest. By the time the van arrived in front of Minjung's home, they discovered Taejoo standing outside. It seemed he was deliberately waiting for her return.
