"I've always had faith in you and this time is no different."

On the way home, Jooeun suddenly thought about Changwook's son and turned to ask Jeonghwan. "Why does Changwook Oppa have a son? Is he married?"

Jeonghwan wrapped his arm around her and replied calmly. "According to Changwook hyung's profile, he is not married. As for his son, I'm afraid only he knows the truth. Are you still trying to match him up with Im Yoona?"

Jooeun shook her head. This time, she was simply concerned about him.

Seeing her in a daze, Jeonghwan pinched her neck. "It's okay, don't worry too much..."

"Can I be more worried than you?" Jooeun asked. Ever since Jeonghwan became her manager, everything related to her belonged in the grasp of his hands. This included small things like what time she'd bathe and what time she'd sleep. Luckily, Jooeun never found this annoying. When a person as amazing as Jeonghwan is thoughtful towards you, what else could you wish for?

"GK's celebration dinner is on tomorrow. So tomorrow afternoon, get Minjung to accompany you to get your hair and makeup done."

"I can go by myself."

"Make sure you go." Jeonghwan ordered with a deeper meaning.

Jooeun couldn't argue against him, so all she could do was nod her head. "As you wish. Who told you to be my manager?"

"Also, you can't wear the dress that Minjung picked, it's too casual. Tomorrow morning, I'll get Taejoo to deliver a dress to you." Jeonghwan looked at Minjung scornfully. However, Minjung did not feel upset by this comment, because this meant Jeonghwan cared about Jooeun. This was more important than anything.

Because in the end, between Jooeun and Lee Sungkyung, the winner was actually dependent on Jeonghwan.

Whoever this man chose to be the winner – is the winner!

That night, two people gave Yoona a phone call, one after another.

The first was Lee Sungkyung. "I heard you've been injured. It's not serious, is it? Who did you offend?"

"Lee Sungkyung, aren't you tired of keeping up your act?" Yoona scoffed as she sat up in bed before coughing a couple of times. As soon as her assistant heard her conversation, she immediately brought over a cushion. "Too bad you weren't extreme enough, I'm still half alive."

"Since you've already figured it out, there's nothing I can say. Think of this as a small lesson to be learned. Im Yoona, would you believe it if I told you, if I have the ability to leave you with half a life, I can also make you spend it in violence?"

"Of course I believe you can." Yoona replied in certainty without a trace of fear. "But you are being much too conceited."

"I can do what I want. Does anyone have the ability to stop me? Let me tell you, if I spread the rumor that SM has given me an offer, even Lee Jeonghwan will be in a panic."

"How confident are you with what you've said?" Yoona burst out laughing.

"You just wait and see. At the upcoming celebration dinner, you will be able to witness Cha Jooeun's real status!"

"As well as yours!" After speaking, Yoona hung up the phone. There was nothing else she wanted to talk to Sungkyung about. From the moment she entered GK, she realized the artists in the agency were like a family. Whenever someone needed help, there would always be someone willing to lend a hand. But it just so happened, there still existed a greedy person.

A moment later, she received a phone call from Changwook. As soon as she saw the phone number appear on her screen, Yoona's mind went blank. She was aware that the rumors had caused him quite a lot of trouble over the past few days. Since he already had a son, she didn't want to continue implicating him. So she decided not to pick up the phone.

Changwook assumed she had gone to sleep, so he sent her a message instead.

"Are you OK?"

As soon as Yoona saw these three words, she sighed and deleted the message without hesitation.

Everything will eventually pass. Everything will eventually get better.

She still needed to appear beautifully in front of her French man.

In a flash, it was already 3 PM the next day.

This was the night of the Blue Dragon Film Awards ceremony. After the ceremony, GK would host their celebration dinner.

This was a tough competition in acting and a relatively important awards ceremony because the Blue Dragon Film Awards was an actor's final goal before pursuing international endeavors. It was an award that held a lot of value. So the red carpet tonight was extremely lively.

As a model, Jooeun didn't originally have any business being at the celebration dinner, but she didn't want to be absent during GK's 20th Anniversary. So she headed over to a hair and makeup salon named Ouioui Atelier which was arranged by Jeonghwan. This famous salon only catered to celebrities and their clientele included many well-known figures. Small-time artists had to call ahead to make an appointment. Some couldn't even find an empty time slot.

"Couldn't we come earlier? Why did Boss insist we come at this time?" Seeing Ouioui Atelier was overcrowded, Minjung couldn't help but complain.

The people here were all relatively famous artists. But for the sake of competition, they had no choice but to arrive early and queue up like normal people.

"Jooeun, wait here. I'll go look for the best stylist."

Jooeun retrieved a VIP gold card from her handbag and handed it to Minjung. "Use this."

Minjung took the card and was completely smitten. "Did Boss make this card for you?"

"I'm not sure. He gave it to me last night." Jooeun shook her head as she sat on the sofa. She had no idea about the features of the VIP card.

One of the attendants saw the card in Jooeun's hand, so she quickly walked over. "Miss, how are you? I see you have Ms. Ok's VIP card. Please wait here, I'll go fetch her."

It turned out the VIP card was aimed at a specific person!

Jooeun nodded her head and had a look at the time. The celebration dinner was to be held at 10 PM, so she still had a sufficient amount of time. However, at this time, the people around Jooeun started to point at her and whisper.

"Isn't that Cha Jooeun? I've never seen her come here before. Look, she's even got a VIP gold card!"

"Lee Sungkyung is also inside. This time, we have a good show to watch."

"Cha Jooeun appears soft and weak. If she is to go up against Lee Sungkyung, isn't she at a loss?"

"That may not be the case. Cha Jooeun always seems to exceed expectations."

Jooeun didn't say anything as she listened to the discussions. However, she took note of the fact that Lee Sungkyung was also present. She finally understood why Jeonghwan had insisted for her to arrive at this time. It was because he knew Sungkyung would also be here.

Afterward, the attendant reappeared and said apologetically. "Miss, I'm so sorry. Ms. Ok is currently attending to another person. But if you are in a rush, she can tend to you first."

"Approximately how long will I need to wait?"

"Roughly 3 hours." the attendant replied.

Jooeun furrowed her brows and asked. "Who is she attending to?"

"Miss Lee Sungkyung."

"In that case, ask her to come over here. I'm in a rush." As soon as she heard Sungkyung's name, Jooeun immediately snatched the stylist away without Sungkyung knowing.
