"Ros..."

"My grandfather is calling me...Jennie, I will go take care of him," Rosé no longer dared to act cool in front of Jennie; she knew how observant she was.

Jennie tightened her grip on her phone and nodded as she replied, "Have a good rest."

Rosé hung up as she collapsed on the floor in exhaustion.

It seemed dealing with Kim Chungha didn't even take this much energy.

Rosé had considered telling Jennie everything straight away. But apart from dragging her into this mess, she couldn't think what benefit could come from it.

All along, Jennie had already suffered too much. If she was to tell Jennie about this incident, then Jennie and Kim Chungha definitely wouldn't let the matter go.

She would think of a way to save her grandfather. But, Kim Chungha shouldn't dream of hurting Jennie!

Especially not via using her!

...

Jennie dropped her arms to her sides as she stood in deep thought beside the window. She didn't know if she was thinking too much into it, but she felt Rosé's mood was a little different than usual.

Behind her, Lisa approached with a jacket. After placing the jacket on her shoulder he pulled her into his embrace.

Jennie leaned against his comforting chest as she looked up at Lisa, "Hon...can we get Jisoo to check on Rosé? I feel like something's wrong."

In reality, Jisoo didn't have a lot of free time, but Lisa simply lowered his head and placed a kiss on Jennie's forehead. If his wife had a request, he would definitely satisfy it. So, he immediately pulled out his phone and gave Jisoo a call; setting a special mission for someone that was already off the clock.

...

Jisoo didn't dare to delay. Even though he had already finished work, he still drove directly over to Rosé's home.

Although barging into a woman's home after dark wasn't very proper, in order to reassure Jennie, Jisoo walked up the stairs and rang Rosé's doorbell.

Rosé didn't expect a guest. She quickly wiped her tears and asked who was outside.

Jisoo gave his reason for coming. At this time, Rosé felt her heart warm up but she still did not open the door, "You can head back, I'm fine, I've already gone to sleep."

Jisoo nodded and did not continue to intrude. But, Lisa was adamant that he had to see her, so Jisoo stood guard outside Rosé's front door all night. It was not until the next morning when Rosé went to leave the house as usual that she discovered Jisoo standing outside; she was shocked.

"It's cold outside, how come you haven't returned home?"

Jisoo rubbed his hands together and smiled, "I slept in the car and only just came up."

Seeing Jisoo's nose had turned red from the cold, Rosé quickly let him into the house, "At least warm up a bit."

Jisoo entered Rosé's home, his voice was full of doubt, "Didn't you say your grandfather was visiting? Where is he?"

Rosé was dumbfounded for a moment before responding calmly, "At the hotel..."

"Are you facing some kind of difficulty?" Jisoo looked around; this was where Jennie used to live. It was big enough to fit an entire family, how could Rosé have asked her grandfather to stay in a hotel?

Plus, Rosé's eyes were swollen to the size of walnuts. This was obviously the result of crying all night.

"No..."
