Jeon Rosè had been working in the media since she graduated from university. She worked as an editor at a newspaper in Daejeon City for the last two years and only stayed at Seoul City for a week before being invited by a famous media magazine company to be an editor in the Department of Commerce.

"Sister Jeon, why do you have such an ugly expression? Aiya, what's wrong?"

Entering the office, Cho Nayun, the art editor, brought a cup of warm milk to Jeon Rosè's desk, as usual, only to see her sitting there in a state of dizziness with half of her face slightly red and swollen.

She couldn't help but look down at her with concern. "Are you all right? Why didn't you ask for a leave from the director? Did something happen?"

"I'm fine." Jeon Rosè came back to her senses and accepted a cup of warm milk. She raised her head only to see Cho Nayun, who was paying full attention to her and grinning. "Get back to work. I'm fine."

"Oh, okay. I just received a call from the director, saying that the newspaper company has sold sensational pictures to our company at high prices. They have sent the picture to my email and instructed me to fix the film so they can post this news this afternoon."

While she was talking, Jeon Rosè was still sitting at her desk in confusion. The warm heat from the cup of milk in her hand brought warmth to her entire body.

She was thinking about her job and the scene that took place at the hotel this morning. Luckily, there was no journalist from her company; otherwise, she will lose her face in front of her colleague!

She took a deep breath and decided to let go of all that messy thoughts. No matter what, she could not afford to lose this job, and there was no point in letting those people mess up her life!

Jeon Rosè drank a few sips of milk before placing the cup of milk on the table. As she picked up the reports and documents on the table, she saw a new magazine published two days ago.

Han Chan was on the cover.

She came to the Business Reporting Department to help him improve his reputation, yet in the end, it turned out to be a joke!

At this moment, Jeon Rosè expressed her stupidity with an ugly expression, causing her expression to become cold as she threw the magazine into the trash.

"Ah!"

Just as she was about to concentrate on her work, a sharp scream suddenly came from Cho Nayun, provoking other colleagues who had just been in the office to look in that direction with a strange look on their faces.

Jeon Rosè also turned towards the stunned Cho Nayun. "What happened? Why are you making a fuss?"

"Sister Jeon.." Cho Nayun trembled as she looked at her (Jeon Rosè ) with an expression of worship. She pointed to the computer and then pointed to her, "You...Are you going to be Park Jimin's wife?"

Before Jeon Rosè could respond, some women in the office had run to Cho Nayun's computer. Some of them screamed and stared at her with envy.

Originally, since she had just entered work, they did not recognize her, but in the blink of an eye, a group of women surrounded her table.

"Aiya, Editor-in-Chief Jeon, from the moment you arrived at our company, I can tell from your attitude that you are not an ordinary person!"

"Ruolan, you are really secretive. You're the future fiancee of Park Group's President?! Say, you do not have to worry about food and clothing, so why did you come to work in our company to be a small editor?"

"The person in that photo is really you? I saw your appearance last night, so it turned out you're going on a date with your fiancé! What a romantic couple! Although we're always interviewing people from the Ministry of Commerce and have interviewed numerous business elites, but I've never seen Park Jimin. I did not think he would be your soon-to-be husband! Chief Jeon, you must help us from now on! You must share the news regarding your husband with us."

Jeon Rosè pushed through the crowd and rushed to Cho Nayun's computer with a pale face. She was shocked to see the photos taken by reporters at the hotel that morning being displayed on this computer screen to the maximum.

She was in the center of the pictures; her hair was in disarray, with a blanket wrapped around her body.

'Park Group's President spent time with his fiancée in a romantic hotel room last night.'

A close-up of her face was shown. The angle of the photo was precise. Anyone who knows Jeon Rosè will recognize her after seeing the photo.

With such clarity, even if she denied it and says that the woman in the photo was not her, no one will believe it!

"Sister Jeon! Sister Jeon!"

She stared at the pictures on the computer screen with shock.

Jeon Rosè took a deep breath, turned around, and sat back down at her desk under the envious gaze of her colleague with a pale face. Just by listening to the chatter, Jeon Rosè could not help but shivered a little, while raising her hand to cover her forehead and close her eyes to calm her mind.

"Sister Jeon, are you unwell? You're trembling!"

Cho Nayun's concerned voice sounded again, but Jeon Rosè could only shake her head. Without a word, she switched on the computer on her desk, and in the next few minutes, whether Baidu, Google, or any other search engine, the latest and hottest keywords were all the same.

'City of Seoul , Park Group's President, Park Jimin, with his fiancée at night.'

They mostly took the photos from the corner of the room where Park Jimin was hugging her tightly. The media dared to offend Park Jimin and had ignored his previous warnings.

F*ck! Even flattering was not such an exaggeration! Before today, she had never met Park Jimin, who was very popular with the title 'legend.'

These reporters really could f*cking make things up. Were these rumors known to Park Family?

Jeon Rosè immediately threw the mouse and stood up suddenly.

As she turned around, some of her colleagues were already standing in front of the office door, watching her.

The corner of her mouth twitched. "Regarding this matter, since we are all members of the media, we should be able to understand how a journalist works. In fact, some current affairs and hot news are not necessarily true. There is no need for you to take it too seriously."

Without waiting for her to finish, Cho Nayun opened another video that had just been posted on the internet. Park Jimin's deep voice was suddenly heard through the speakers. "I forgot to introduce my fiancée to everyone."

"I, Jeon Rosè, am Park Jimin's fiancée. Vice-President Han, do you want me to repeat that statement again?"

Jeon Rosè: "..."

Everyone's gaze was once again focused on her. Their gazes this time were very different, but most of them were fawning over her.

Jeon Rosè was on the verge of going crazy. While she was anxiously looking for a way to overcome this problem, Sister Jung, one of the editors at her company walked into the room and suddenly said, "Little Jeon, the Editor-in-Chief is waiting for you in his office."

She said that the editor-in-chief was waiting for her, not ordered her. Judging from the politeness, it seemed that everyone believed in this gossip.

Jeon Rosè scratched her aching head. At that moment, she felt like she was going crazy.

If she knew that this situation would change like this, she would be more willing to pretend to die. Why did she have to follow up on another lie?

President Park had the ability to remain calm in the face of danger, but did she, Jeon Rosè, have it? Did she have the right to do so?

The heck!

Her gut turned green with regret!
