As the lift went directly to Taehyung's office, Jennie didn't need to worry about running into any of the staff in Hai Rui. As soon as she stepped out of the lift, she saw Taehyung's huge office; Jennie was relieved.

The office was styled very differently to the Spanish-palace-look they had at home. Taehyung's office was minimalist with angular metal furnishing; this showed his efficient, concise and dignified approach to work, making those that entered the room to subconsciously feel a sense of respect.

At present, the man behind the office table was focused on signing the documents before him. The mole on his right earlobe made him appear reliable yet seductive; so they say, 'men are the most attractive when they are serious'. Jennie stood in the distance in a daze...until Taehyung lifted his head and noticed her standing there...

"Go take a seat on the sofa for a bit," Taehyung said gently as he instructed Suga, "Go prepare some English black tea and pastries. Also, grab a blanket on the way."

"Yes, president."

Jennie watched as Taehyung quickly signed all the documents and walked to sit beside her, "Why didn't you bring Nayeon up?"

"She said she didn't want to be a lightbulb."

Suga entered the office with the pastries and handed a blanket to Taehyung. Taehyung immediately covered Jennie's legs with the blanket, "The air conditioner is a bit strong."

Jennie smiled before reaching out her hands to nudge Taehyung, "Go do your work, don't disturb me from enjoying the beautiful scenery."

"Beautiful scenery?"

"The sight of you working..."

Taehyung had no choice but to stand up and return to his table to continue working. Meanwhile, Jennie resisted her tiredness for a while before leaning against the sofa and falling asleep. Taehyung got up to reposition her body horizontally on the sofa, placing a pillow under her head and covering her with a blanket. She actually wanted to keep him company even though she was so tired from work...

People went in and out of Taehyung's office. Not only Suga, but also his secretary and a few company higher-ups. Every person that entered, would have a different expression as they walked out.

As they entered, they were calm. But upon exiting, they were so surprised their eyes almost popped out of their heads.

The Big Boss is taken!

Who was the beautiful woman in the Big Boss' office?

There's actually a person that is bold enough to fall asleep in the boss' office!

The way that Big Boss looks at that beauty is gentle like water!

My God! This is big news!

However, after leaving the office, as they weren't allowed to gossip, each person felt like they were going to explode. How amazing would this woman have to be to get the Big Boss' affection? Could she be a current famous superstar?

Jennie was resting peacefully; she slept well. She had no idea, she had already put Hai Rui into a frenzy.

8pm. Taehyung finally finished his work and carried Jennie in his arms out of the building into his Rolls Royce. Because of the noise outside, Jennie finally awoke. She opened her eyes and gazed at Taehyung gently, "You've finished work?"

"What would you like to eat?" Taehyung started the engine as he gently asked her.

"You decide," Jennie tilted her head and wrapped her arm around Taehyung's right arm as she continued to nap.

The sports car drove out of the basement carpark. At the same time, behind them, Hai Rui's curious onlookers were gathered around. Although they couldn't gossip, they wanted to at least have a look; it didn't matter if they couldn't see clearly. Who was this woman that was affectionate with Taehyung...

Taehyung did not take Jennie to a restaurant, instead, he decided to cook and prepare a feast for the two of them. Jennie watched Taehyung's busy figure. She couldn't help but approach him from behind and give him a hug, "How could you be so good to me..."

"You are so easy to take care of...just a simple dinner and you are already touched..."

Jennie did not respond, instead, her hands wandered into Taehyung's shirt and caressed his chest muscles, "Mr. Kim, I'm hungry..."

"The food is on its way."

"But, I want to eat you up."

Taehyung stopped what he was doing. Without saying a word, he turned around and carried Jennie horizontally in his arms, out of the kitchen. What his wife requested, he, of course, had to immediately fulfill...

Late at night. The news was covering the Bright Night Gala that was to take place in 3 days time. After glancing at it quickly, Taehyung lowered his head to question Jennie who was in his embrace, "The Bright Night Gala, I've looked at the guest list. Both you and Kang Seulgi are invited."

"Bright Night Gala?" Jennie lifted her head confusedly.

"Seems like Tianyi hasn't told you about it, and probably doesn't intend to..." seeing Jennie's reaction, Taehyung's voice lowered.

The Annual Model Awards was one of the biggest events of the year. The Top Ten Model Awards was only a part of it. The most important thing was the awards, which would definitely be taken home by some of the most famous models. Amongst them, 80% were awarded to models from Hai Rui and Star King.

Jennie straightened her body; she felt a little tense.

Taehyung noticed her reaction and quickly stroked her hair as he gently comforted her, "Let's pretend you don't know about it. Let them think you won't attend. On the day, I will send someone to escort you down the red carpet. Nini, you have already considered all possibilities, don't let this upset you..."

Jennie slowly calmed down as she gently nodded her head, "If not for you, I would probably be tricked again!"

"But there is no 'if', you indeed have me."

Jennie tightly wrapped her arms around Taehyung's waist; he was her safest harbor in the world...

The next morning. As discussed, Jennie indeed pretended she didn't know a thing as she entered Tianyi with Nayeon. Inside his office, Baekhyun was in an extremely good mood. After their multiple battles with Jennie, they had finally learned to hide their true intentions. So, in front of her they no longer flaunted or showed off - they simply pretended nothing happened.

"After the collaboration with ISN, are you going to continue working? There have been many magazines and endorsement offers for you, have you made a decision?"

"I want to work with TQ," Jennie placed TQ's collaboration plan in front of Baekhyun.

Baekhyun was surprised for a moment; he did not understand why Jennie would pick TQ. Although this was a high-end magazine, in terms of sales and reputation, it did not compare to other magazines. Why did she insist on picking this one?

"Are you sure?" Baekhyun completely did not understand what Jennie was thinking. She had just taken a step towards success, but instead of riding the wave to increase her exposure, she chose something out of the ordinary and selected a path that no one else was confident about. "I am sure..." Jennie nodded. "Kang Seulgi will be receiving an award, I believe you will be using all your resources to support her. There is no reason for you to interfere with what I want to do, right?"

"Are you afraid the higher-ups will reject it?" Baekhyun asked coldly. "Jennie, you think too highly of yourself. If you want to do it, then do it. As for the higher-ups, I will convince them. However, you need to be aware of the dangerous choice you have made."

"I am completely aware..." After speaking, Jennie stood up. She had nothing else to speak to Baekhyun about.

"Jennie, you must be desperate to destroy yourself. Are you really going to make our wish come true?"

After hearing this, Jennie's footsteps stopped for a moment.

"I think you should care about you and Kang Seulgi first..."
