Trial Marriage Husband: Need To Work Hard (Book 3)

"Hasn't Superstar Media already been returned to Manoban Entertainment?" Doyeon asked. "Plus, you've already compensated me for my shares..."

"Ever since 'The Ant Queen' became a huge hit, the board of directors have started to turn a blind eye to my matters. I'm sure they won't reject me if I mention Superstar Media to them again," Jennie replied. "That's why I'm planning to let you guys manage it. After all, there's too much hidden and wasted talent in the industry. I still hope we can create a few more Luo Shengs and Xing Lans."

"You don't need an assistant anymore?"

"Don't I have a manager?" Jennie asked with a raised eyebrow. "Besides, I work behind-the-scenes these days. I don't need an assistant to take care of me; Lisa and Jisoo is enough."

Doyeon actually wanted to return to work because she had never been one to stay at home and do nothing. Sure, her husband's family had an influential background and she had just given birth to a son, but...

"Then you should return to work," Mother Li's voice suddenly resounded from behind the two women. No one knew how long she had been standing there and how much of their conversation she had heard. "While these old bag of bones are still mobile, I'd be more than happy to take care of my grandson."

"But, mom..."

"Doyeon, the two of us are already satisfied that you married our Lucas and gave birth to a child. As I've always said, you're still young, you shouldn't put your life on hold because of becoming a mother. You should return to work..." Mother Li said in a thoughtful and open-minded manner.

"Look, you have the best example beside you: Jennie already has three children, yet she's managed to balance both her family and career really well. I am not against the idea of you working. I don't care about the old prideful ideals of the rest of the family. So what if you're in the entertainment industry? You've achieved everything with your own hands. Why should they be so judgmental?"

Doyeon felt that meeting the Li Family was the most worthwhile thing that ever happened to her.

She had a great husband and an understanding and open-minded mother-in-law.

"Mom, thank you."

"I should be the one that's thanking you. Even at a crucial moment like this, Lucas couldn't be by your side, yet you didn't complain, even though I understand, as a mother, how you must be feeling. You're a good child that deserves to be doted on."

Jennie looked at the two women and smiled as her heart filled with warmth.

Meanwhile, Rosé looked at the two in admiration. Mother Lu had applied so much pressure on her in the past that she understood how difficult it was to be on bad terms with one's mother-in-law.

"Hurry, recover and get back to work..."

Of course, this was also the first time that Rosé heard about Jennie's plan to leave Superstar Media back in their hands. But, after what happened with Hanbin, Rosé was still traumatized by the idea of training newcomers again...

...

2 days later, the annual Fei Tian Awards Ceremony was held. Like previous years, it was a star-studded event.

All the celebrities turned up in their battle gear, hoping to get the most attention. But, just like last time, Jennie was not interested in what she wore.

However, as the hottest celebrity around, she was, of course, destined to be surrounded by reporters no matter what she wore. Even so, she still felt she was past the age of fighting for the limelight with other female celebrities.
