Trial Marriage Husband: Need To Work Hard (Book 1)

92

That evening. Rush hour. Her Vision's staff gradually emptied out onto the streets. At this time, an unexpected figure appeared at the building. He was directly escorted into the editor's office by her secretary; no appointment necessary.

"I didn't expect Assistant Kim to make an appearance here, sorry for not coming down to greet you..." Editor Lin stood up and smiled politely as she stuck out her hand. She was ecstatic to see Jisoo; could it be possible that Manoban Entertainment wanted to collaborate?

Jisoo was used to being treated this way. He slightly squinted his charming eyes and got straight to the point, "President Manoban wants to know...who will appear on the front cover of your November issue?"

Editor Lin was surprised as her smile stiffened. The person sitting opposite her was Jisoo, every word he said could well be a direct representation of Lisa Manoban. If she managed to collaborate with them, her sales would skyrocket!

However, she had been friends with CL for many years...

...and they had already signed a contract.

"Regarding this..."

"Is it YG entertainment's model, Lee Joo-young?" Jisoo asked directly.

The editor stared at Jisoo in shock. She didn't understand how he found out about something that was meant to be confidential.

"I'm also aware that Jennie, who's been very popular recently, came for an audition as well. How come you didn't consider her?"

After hearing Jisoo's questions, Editor Lin couldn't figure out his intention. However...she assumed he was here on behalf of Manoban Entertainment, so she answered honestly, "If we were to compare ability and popularity, Jennie is definitely miles ahead of Joo-young. But, as you are aware, this industry is all about connections. Jennie is popular, but she has no backing and no connections. On the other hand, CL is different, she can bring a lot of benefits for Her Vision."

"Who said Jennie has no backing?" after hearing Editor Lin mention connections, Jisoo responded with a heavy tone.

"What are you suggesting, Assistant Kim?"

"Use Jennie as November's front cover model," Jisoo replied straightforwardly. "Don't think that because Jennie keeps a low profile that she has no backing. If you weren't bullying Jennie, President Manoban may have been in a good enough mood to help you pay your compensation for canceling your contract with CL. But...since you want to act ignorant..."

"Our President Manoban will only give you two choices. Number one: Continue to use CL's model and wait for your company to close down; Number two: Switch to Jennie. We will guarantee that your November issue will break all previous sales records. Your choice."

Editor Lin was dumbfounded; her eyes opened wide. She suddenly understood Jisoo's intention: He wasn't here because of Manoban Entertainment, he was here because of Jennie.

And worst of all, she was left with no choice. As the king of the entertainment industry, for Lisa Manoban, closing down a magazine could be done without lifting a finger...

However, what she didn't understand was, why was Lisa sticking up for Jennie?

Editor Lin stared at Jisoo for quite some time. After determining that he wasn't joking, she nodded in dismay, "I understand."

She never imagined, Jennie...who appeared to be disconnected from the world, actually had...

...Manoban Entertainment protecting her!

"I hope you can keep my visit a secret; don't tell anyone about it, including Jennie. Or else, I think you can imagine the consequences. As for everything I've said today, it is a direct representation of President Manoban. You don't need to question it!"
