Bohyun acted helpless and anxious in front of Somi, suggesting that he really wanted to help but had no choice. It was not until he left Somi's house, did he finally lower his head and reveal a cold smile. On this earth, there was soon to be another person that detested Cha Jooeun.
In the end, Somi went to visit Chaeyeon at the hospital with a heart full of anger. At this time, Chaeyeon was suffering in pain and watching Jooeun's runway show on TV.
Somi took one glance and snatched the video from Chaeyeon's hands. "Do you still think highly of her? This woman has no intention of saving you."
Chaeyeon realized there was something not quite right about Somi's temper, so she sat up and asked. "What's wrong with you lately? Why do you keep saying bad things about Jooeun unnie?"
"I went to Cha Jooeun's agency, but Sublime's staff tried to send me away with the money. They said she can't recall ever promising you her kidney and as a model, her body is also important. It's obvious she doesn't want to donate it to you."
After hearing this, Chaeyeon's eyes slightly twitched. She immediately grabbed onto Somi's arm and asked. "Why did you go to Sublime? Sublime can't wait to destroy Jooeun unnie! Did you know you may have been used by them?"
Somi was dumbfounded for a moment before looking at Chaeyeon. "Are you saying the truth?"
"I told you to pay more attention to entertainment news." Chaeyeon glared at her as her emotions gradually calmed down. She then asked, "You said Jooeun unnie can't recall promising me her kidney, but did you hear it directly from her? If you didn't hear it from her mouth, then why would you trust the words of a middle-man?"
"I..." Somi was stuck for words, she didn't know how to refute.
"Also, Somi-ah, I've said it many times, Jooeun unnie isn't related to me. No matter if it is responsibility or morality, she is not obligated to save me. You've been through higher education, don't tell me you don't understand something as simple as this." After speaking, Chaeyeon noticed Somi didn't know what to say. So she requested "The next time Sublime people want to see you, let me know. I will definitely let you see their true form."
Somi thought for a moment and decided she should trust her friend, so she nodded. "I simply don't want anything to happen to you."
"I'll be fine."
After continuously working for half a month in London, Jooeun's sleep had reduced to 4 hours a day. But because of her hard work, she secured multiple endorsements for international luxury brands as well as runway shows for some of the world's leading brands. Her predictions were right. Back when Kangjun left, she did not cancel her contract with Sublime leading to the results today. Yeji was too busy with her own affairs and Jooeun was beyond her reach. She had no way of interfering with her.
At the moment, Jooeun ran over all her important contracts with Jeonghwan and studied the remaining contracts with Minjung. She also negotiated her own interviews and remuneration. As her main priority was to gain opportunities, she did not make any unreasonable requests. Hence, her clients were extremely pleased with her.
As she was overseas for a long time, news about her back at home had decreased relatively. She no longer needed to utilize her popularity to gain resources. After working with YSL, she had long surpassed the awkward stage of her career.
However, she had no idea, underneath the calm surface of Seoul, trouble was brewing. Bohyun and Sublime had not been dealt with completely and during this time, Yeji was using her contacts to poach some promising newcomers from other agencies.
Although Yeji didn't interfere in Jooeun's business, she still kept a close eye on her. Seeing Jooeun's success on the international runway, she no longer looked for Bohyun. It seemed she was ready to admit defeat. What else could she use to obstruct Jooeun?
Meanwhile, Minjung was in the study room placing red crosses on the calendar as she counted down the days till her and Jooeun's homecoming. Deep down, she was also counting how many days left till she could see Taejoo again. Jooeun even noticed during this time, Minjung had begun to lose weight. Could it be because of hard work or because she missed Taejoo too much?
Jooeun returned to her bedroom and lay on the bed chatting to Jeonghwan over the phone. No matter how late at night it was, she had to hear his voice every day before she could fall asleep. It seemed Jeonghwan had an extra job added to his list. Sometimes, Jooeun fell asleep with the phone in her hands, but Jeonghwan did not hang up. He left the call connected until the next morning when he could greet her good morning.
Taejoo had gotten used to seeing scenes like this. At one point, he even thought, although the president wasn't in London, his body clock was running on London time.
"Hwan, how many days do I have left before I return?"
"4 days." Jeonghwan replied in a gentle tone.
"Mmm, 4 days. It will pass with a blink of an eye." Jooeun mumbled as she bathed herself. "I really miss you. Any longer and I won't be able to endure anymore."
"I only left 2 days ago." Jeonghwan responded helplessly with a doting tone.
"So you don't miss me?"
"I already expressed how much I'd miss you on the day I left."
Hearing this, Jooeun's face flushed red. "Wait for me. I will be back very soon. Wait for me, OK?" Everything she did was to shine brightly beside Jeonghwan.
Jeonghwan looked at the wedding ring on his finger like he understood something. "We still need to love each other for the rest of our lives, I'll be waiting."
Jooeun gave a satisfied smile. As long as Jeonghwan was around to guide her, no matter how tired she was, she'd still have the courage to push forward.
Almost half a month had passed since Chaeyeon told Somi she wanted to see Bohyun. Finally, he got in contact with Somi.
Somi immediately instructed her driver to pick up Chaeyeon from the hospital without anyone noticing.
Bohyun had no idea. Every time he met with Somi, he'd simply appear apologetic and claim that he had a message from Cha Jooeun'.
"Jooeun will be returning in a few days. She asked me to request that you don't create hype with this incident. It wasn't easy for her to get to where she is today. She doesn't want to endanger her status."
Somi looked at Bohyun. With Chaeyeon's warning, she had smartened up a little. So she deliberately said, "I had long given up the hope that she'd keep her promise. Status? Does she deserve to be a model? If anything happens to Chaeyeon, I will make her regret it for the rest of her life."
"Somi-ssi, don't get so aggravated. Jooeun has no choice."
"Hmmph." Yuan Yuan grunted in anger.
"Jooeun also said you can set your conditions."
"Mr. Ahn, honestly, what were Cha Jooeun's exact words?" Somi deliberately tried to make Bohyun speak.
Seeing Somi's anger dangling by a thread, he hesitated for a moment before responding. "Jung Chaeyeon? What does she have to do with me? Isn't it better if she's dead? Shouldn't everyone from the Jung family die? How could she dream of me saving her? I am, after all, a famous model. As if I would give up a kidney for an unrelated person. Keep dreaming."
"Did she really say that?" Somi's face turned unbelievably red.
"Uh-huh." Bohyun nodded. After studying the expression on Somi's face, he continued. "Those were Jooeun's exact words."
At this time, the Jeon family home's dining room door flew open. In the doorway, stood Jung Chaeyeon. She slowly approached Somi and Bohyun with the help of the housekeeper. She stared at Bohyun with her pale face and asked. "Is this really what Jooeun unnie said? Are you sure?"
