Given Krystal's current status and reputation, money wasn't her priority. If she wanted to scale greater heights, she would need more public recognition and influence.
The charity event's contest would be the perfect opportunity.
Both the society and public would prefer to shine the limelight on an artist who was actively involved in charity.
Thus, Krystal's value would grow exponentially.
"The comments don't count." Krystal gave her manager a non-committal smile, as though she was nonchalant about the entire thing. However, the fleeting expression in her eyes had betrayed her inner thoughts.
"Why not? The contest for the charity angel is based on voting. You established Angel's Shelter years ago, and everyone knows that.
In contrast, your sister Jennie is busy making a last-minute effort in order to qualify. She has gotten some kittens from who-knows-where to put on a show. She even got an expensive Ragdoll and tried to pass it off as a stray! What a joke! Does she really think that it's so easy to do charity?
Do you know how bad the criticism is online? She doesn't even have a brain when it comes to putting on a show." Her manager roared with laughter.
At the thought of Jennie's Weibo post, Krystal's manager was completely amused.
They were sisters, yet they were so different.
Jennie kept trying to imitate Krystal. First, she had claimed that Kai was her boyfriend. Now, she was basically acting like a clown by staging such a show.
Shouldn't she have a good look at herself first? How could she pretend to be charitable all of a sudden?
Before Krystal had set foot in the industry, she had established Angel's Shelter. She had been contributing to charity quietly all these years without seeking fame or recognition.
While Krystal was savoring the insults spewed by her manager, a glint sparkled in her eyes. However, her expression was conflicted.
"Don't say that about her. She is still my sister." She sighed and spoke softly.
Her manager instantly told Krystal off. "Krystal, don't be so kind. Why are you even voting for Jennie? Everyone is busy trying to increase their own votes. You're the only one generous enough to share your votes with her. If it wasn't for you, she wouldn't even have qualified."
Krystal smiled bitterly and fell silent. She then turned around and pretended to gaze out of the window.
A victorious smile spread across her face gradually and shattered her facade of nonchalance and helplessness.
To think that the mess Jennie had left behind years ago would have helped her so much.
When she had first debuted, being the founder of Angel's Shelter had given her a lot of attention and benefits. She had won the admiration of the public and been recognized as the national angel.
She had thought that would be the only value of Angel's Shelter, yet it had brought her something unexpected once again. Many other celebrities had failed to become charity ambassadors. Meanwhile, she had succeeded effortlessly without doing anything.
Just Angel's Shelter alone had allowed her to crush all her competitors by getting the most votes.
She had been in the lead and the charity event management had arranged for her to work with Gu Xinhan. She knew that the title would be hers.
The director and photographer were frantically directing and instructing the production crew on how to set up.
There was also a number of cats and dogs that would be featured along with the artists later. All of them had been brought over from Angel's Shelter.
