"Is that the model that got famous for the Oriental Trend?"

"Yes, it's her. Just because she's slightly attractive, she thinks she can start scheming. Didn't anyone tell her our president hates people that ride on other's coattails? Especially those that use him to create hype? She's asking for it."

"Let's just sit back and watch the show..."

"She's a nobody, but she sure is brave..."

Hushed whispers echoed from below the stage. Pretty much everyone present was waiting to see how Jennie would be humiliated and how pitiful she would end up being, while Kai and the others couldn't help but cheer inside.

If Jennie was to offend the CEO of Manoban Entertainment, it would be equivalent to being blacklisted by the entire industry. This result would be better than anything they could do to suppress her - what a pleasant surprise.

Meanwhile, standing on the stage, Lisa knew exactly what was going through everyone's minds. He knew they wanted to see Jennie get humiliated. But, unfortunately for them, this woman was his wife...

How could he allow his wife to become a joke?

So, he simply smiled and exclaimed in front of everyone, "I hope this kind of coincidence happens more often, after all...Miss Kim is very beautiful."

After hearing Lisa's words, everyone was shocked as they looked at each other in disbelief; he didn't say anything bad to her.

His words were gentle and simple; full of politeness. It didn't contain any trace of ridicule. He was genuinely praising Jennie!

It didn't take long for everyone to realize what Lisa meant. If Jennie had indeed contacted his assistant or others around him, Lisa would not have let her off easily. So it was obvious, all this was truly a coincidence - simply a beautiful coincidence.

Meanwhile, Jennie did not appear to be sucking up or defensive. This gave her extra points and made everyone present find her very pleasing. Without trying to explain herself; she just simply smiled and sat back down elegantly, leaving a lasting impression.

At first, everyone thought this incident was over, but Lisa suddenly spoke up, "I remember Miss Kim's performance at The Crown's Star show in Hai Yi Centre. I hope you continue to work hard!"

These words completely stunned everyone. The video from the time he stuck up for her at the show was still being circulated online, so he couldn't deny he didn't know her. But the fact that he told her to work hard suggested to the public, Manoban Entertainment did not give her any offers....

...because Manoban Entertainment only wanted the most powerful artists...

...but, it didn't mean she wouldn't receive any offers in the future. A model like her, that was so professional and conducted herself well, had a promising future. No one could predict how far she would go.

All the fashion personalities looked at Jennie with fascination.

Meanwhile, Jennie looked at Lisa helplessly. He had agreed not to interfere in her private matters, yet here he was doing all he could to boost her fame.

Lisa also looked at Jennie. Today was a rare occasion for them to appear together, he didn't know when the next opportunity would be; so what was wrong with saying a few words for his wife? After all, it wasn't like he was going out of his way to help her, he merely said a few honest truths.

The hosts adored Jennie, especially her non-competitive attitude. Plus, after witnessing how Kim Entertainment treated her earlier, the female host gathered her courage and suggested, "President Manoban, since this coincidence has happened, why don't we close off with a happy ending...You should take a photo together?"
