A Lifetime With You [Jenlisa]

Chapter 39

Suddenly, a reporter passed a microphone to Ha Jungwoo.

"Director Ha, what are your comments on Jennie's acting?"

"Jennie claimed that she clinched the role based on her acting. Is it true?"

"Director Ha, you should be aware of Krystal and Jennie's relationship. That's why you gave her the role, on account of Krystal!"

...

Ha Jungwoo remained glum and tight-lipped as he heard these questions.

He wanted to clarify this situation on Jennie's behalf, but Zhou Feng's incident was connected to Summit Entertainment. This would lead to dire consequences, so he couldn't allow the reporters to know.

In the end, Ha Jungwoo clammed up and refused to speak.

Krystal smirked in victory, as she had already expected this.

She knew Jennie too well and was aware of how bad her acting was.

She had guessed that Jennie had gotten lucky once more. When Zhou Feng had been caught red-handed, Ha Jungwoo had given her the role to hush things up.

The reporters assumed that Ha Jungwoo had silently admitted this by staying silent. All of them seemed excited.

"Look! Even Director Ha admitted it!"

"She can spin such atrocious lies. Indeed, she lacks principles!"

"Jennie! What else do you have to say?"

Jennie, who understood why Ha Jungwoo couldn't speak up for her, shrugged. "There is nothing to be said. Just wait till the movie hits theaters. Everyone can witness my acting when that time comes. That will be the best proof. I hope that... when this happens, all the reporters who slandered me without proof will apologize to me personally."

The reporters gazed at her as though she was a lunatic.

"Apologize to her? She is mad!"

"She won't repent or feel remorse until she has failed completely. How shameless!"

"Apologize? I bet that when that time comes, she will be sobbing and apologizing when she sees the audience clamoring to have their tickets refunded because of her!"

The bespectacled reporter put on a wide sardonic grin and continued to ridicule her. "Sure. If you're able to prove your acting skills, I will kneel down and apologize to you!"

"Ha ha ha... Me too!"

This caused another round of raucous laughter as it echoed around the room.

Jennie scanned the cameras and equipment and nodded in satisfaction. With so many witnesses around, they wouldn't be able to renege on their promise.

...

When the interview ended, the studio finally regained its peace and the reporters left.

Krystal spoke briefly to Esther Yu and left shortly.

Before she left, she threw Jennie a long contemptuous look. "Sister, may we meet again."

Krystal had just left, when Esther Yu deliberately eyed Tiffany. She told Ella Chen, "I thought that Tiffany was smart. I didn't know she was so stupid as to try to use this trash to secure her position."

"Hmph! I told you before that Tiffany is leeching off you to survive! I'm afraid that you don't know that she placed a bet with the rest of the managers. In three months, if she doesn't manage to top the sales with Jennie, she will resign from her position as director!"
