Time seemed to stop when the door opened and a tall woman was escorted by a group of people into the vast hall. Whispers boomed in the hall. Dazzling flickers snapped at her. Her each step was poised with confidence, her eyes had a touch of arrogance. There was this fine line between attitude and arrogance but she contrived it in her style. While her dress swooped everyone off their feet, her impeccable beauty took their breaths away.

Caparisoned in an empire style A-line burgundy dress, a waistband of the same color that complimented the dress was clamped right below her bosom, accentuating her slim waist. Like the winiest wine, her dress rivaled the man in a significant white shirt standing on the podium. His eyes never left the dazzling woman shining in glory from the moment she entered the hall.

"Isn't it the model Jennie? But why is she here?" A reporter whispered awed by her impeccable beauty.

"What is this crazy woman doing here?" A reporter shuddered and he already planned to not ask any question to the non compos mentis. Her craziness is the talk of the city.

The audience was anxiously looking at the stunning woman and the reporters held their breaths in anticipation. The statements were readied already for they knew Taehyung would announce his relationship with Regina but in the last minute, he twisted the game claiming he is in a relationship with another woman, and out of syllabus Jennie has appeared in the show further confusing everyone.

She raised her hand and the men behind her stepped back. She stood alone at the center of the hall, in a world full of people determined, and looked at the man standing on the dais. Their eyes met for all the world went into oblivion as if the two were silently communicating with each other. Taehyung knew it's not easy to appease the queen. She wants to show her place in his heart to the people, precisely to the world. A King would only bow down to the queen and he would gladly oblige to it.

Everybody in the room gasped when Taehyung stepped down from the stage and walked towards the woman. With a love-filled gaze, he stood in front of her with an outstretched palm. "You look beautiful tonight."

Jennie blushed instantly. Tons of compliments but one praise from Taehyung would take her breath away and it's not the first time she has surrendered under his witchery eyes. Without placing a hand on to his, her eyes swept over his iris orbs gazing at her with affection and tenderness that he would show only for her. "Thanks a bunch of oats, babylicious." She whispered placing her hand on to his. He chuckled at her witty reply and quickly locked her hand with his and guided her to the stage while gently holding her waist.

"I would like to make an official announcement." He briefly gazed at her and Jennie reassured him squeezing his hand.

"The girl standing with me today is the one, I want to spend my life today, tomorrow, actually, my entire life with her alone. From the very moment, I saw her, my heart knew she is the one. There is no space in my heart for anyone except her." He continued. "We have kept our relationship hidden until we get to come together with our families but then an intruder created chaos in our lives. But she did not leave me. Instead, she supported, she held my hand, never letting go despite the turmoil she was enduring inside."

His announcement held an uproar not only to the people sitting inside but to the outside world who were watching the interview. Taehyung openly confessed his love for Jennie to the entire world was a huge blow.

Seeing the couple acting lovey-dovey, Regina was red with anger, shrieking inside. If not for the image she has to maintain in the public, she would have exploded like a time bomb. My prince charming proposing to that bitch. Did he forget that I still hold a trump card? How is he going to come clean with the photos? The world would throw dirt on Jennie for being a bitch.
