The banquet hall was getting crowded
as more guests arrived and Jennie recognized some of them.The lady who was chatting with Krystal intimately at that moment was Tzuyu whom Jennie met at the audition in Las Vegas. The one beside her should be her mother, the president of Horizon Fashion, Guo Hui. Her parents were welcoming her warmly.
Despite the constant flow of guests, Krystal was able to chat up with almost all of them. The guests looked at Krystal in a different light, awed by her.
"This girl is really something, she has a such a wide connection despite her young age!"
"Sigh, it's really frustrating when I compare my kid at home with her. She always dreamt about being a star but after spending so much money, there isn't even a shadow of her on screen! Unlike Krystal with her own business and her own company!"
...
A servant who was serving guests outside suddenly came rushing in and panted, "Master...outside...outside..."
Chairman Kim asked sternly, "What's happened outside? Do you know how inappropriate it is for you to freak out in front of the guests?!"
The servant continued worriedly, "No, Master! There're...there're important guests! Very important guests!"
Chairman Kim was still unhappy. "Who is it that made you freak out?"
With the Kim family's position, the servant did not need to freak out even if the guests were from a renowned family.
In the corner, Jennie was curious of the servant's expression. Who did Krystal involve herself with this time?
The servant explained, "Just now...there was a car stopped in front of the entrance...but no one came out of the car. It was just parked there, so I paid it no mind but the car looked really prestigious. Then, I checked the number plate and it seems like...it's a car from the Manoban family!"
Upon hearing the servant, Mr and Mrs Kim were concerned. "What? Manoban family? Which Manoban family?"
The servant trembled, "Mano..Manoban Corporation..."
Jennie spurted out her fruit juice.
What?!
Manoban Corporation?
Could it be...Lisa?
It could not be! Why would the devil be here?
"Uhm...Jen, I'll excuse myself to make a phone call first!"
Jennie was still worried as she went outside to give Lisa a call.
The phone call was picked up after ringing only once and a man's deep voice came through, "Hey."
It was quiet on the other side of the phone and she could not determine where he was.
Jennie gulped and asked, "Hey...Lisa, where are you right now?"
"At the entrance of the Kim residence."
Jennie was annoyed. "What are you doing? Why are you here?"
"Because you didn't come back. Leo was crying for you."
Her hard features softened when she heard about her baby Leo. "Ah, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect to stay here for so long either but I'm going to be done soon and I'll be back as quick as I can!"
"Mmm, we'll wait for you."
Jennie was speechless.
She actually meant for him to go back with Leo first...what if something happened and she had to stay longer?
As she was thinking of how to persuade them to leave first, there was a noise from the other end of the line, like the phone was being passed and a weak voice came through this time, "Sister-in-law, I was almost frozen to icicles by this two cold people while waiting for you! When will you be done? Please come back soon."
