The Heaven Entertainment's 'brothel' incident had become excessively viral. Even though Jennie had stepped in at a reasonable time to give a response and make PR efforts, she couldn't get the other people involved to cooperate. So, within the complex entertainment industry, her statement quickly got lost and forgotten.

Not long after, Heaven Entertainment released a simple apology letter. However, the letter was useless; not only did it not recover the company's image, it even made the incident drag on for longer.

As for the shows that Jennie was currently negotiating, the clients decided to replace her with other models. As well as that, all the endorsement events she had already agreed upon suddenly lost contact.

"Jennie Kim? Aigoo! Sorry, but we don't dare to use you, we've already replaced you."

"Jennie Kim, I don't think your image suits us. Sorry, but we will have to replace you."

"Since you're not afraid of climbing into other's beds, why would you be afraid of losing an advertisement?"

These few clients were considered polite, there were a few that cursed straightforwardly.

Rosie put down her phone and looked helplessly at her dear Wifey. Jennie gently pat her on the shoulder, "It's OK, just don't let President Manoban know about this."

"Do you think big boss haven't had any idea yet? I bet she's well aware of it," Rosie sighed. She understood this industry was all about fame and fortune and the reality was too frightening. "I'll continue to call, as long as there's still hope," after speaking, Rosie phoned the next number. Surprisingly, they agreed to meet Jennie in person to discuss.

However, when Jennie turned up, they asked for her to be a nude model.

"You are being too offensive and sensitive..."

"You've already done worse...what's the point of keeping your dignity?" the man looked at Jennie sleazily. Between his thin eyelids was a look of disregard and mockery.

Jennie did not speak. She simply took one look at the man's name card and imprinted the name in her mind. The man felt slightly threatened by Jennie's icy cold gaze as beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Rosie, help me find out if, amongst the media, there's a reporter that is familiar with Li Yu," Jennie suddenly instructed Rosie on the way home. She thought for a bit and continued, "Look at the agreement between Taehyung and Li Yu, the first condition is to release Tzuyu. This must mean Taehyung already knew about their relationship..."

"But, the most important point is, when did he find out?"

"Taehyung's birthday," Jennie carefully searched through her memory and remembered the phone call she had received from him. That day was the first time he had asked her to return to his side, "Rosie, go find Taehyung's secretary, she will probably know something about what happened that day..."

"Also, keep looking into Li Yu..."

"During the awards ceremony, I already told Tzuyu we were even. I originally planned to let her go, but...who would have thought she'd go and ruin herself. If that's what she wants, then we'll give it to her..."

"We might as well send Taehyung and Li Yu off to keep her company..."

"Jennie..." Rosie was a little surprised.

"Sorry, my mind has been elsewhere lately, I almost forgot this was an industry where you have to depend on yourself. The mockery from the man just then was like a wake-up call -- I'm now fully awake. I know now that if I don't work hard, I may have to start all over again, or even worse."
