Commitment Phobic (Jenlisa)

Chapter 17

Rosie POV

"You guys carry on, I will be in conference room" Jennie get up from the couch about to leave.

"No. You stay here. You need to know as well"

Jennie looked at me but back to sit anyway.

I started telling them everything about Mr Armand's plan. Jisoo & Jennie were surprised and unsure how to respond on this.

"What's your parents take on this?" Jisoo asked me.

"They just left it to me. Just said that I know what is right and wrong and what I've to do"

"I feel like he left me with no choice, his family owning all the luxury brand. Turning them down means losing my career. What if I won't get any brand offering? What if I've no endorsement?" I said which make them look at me in pity.

"And what is exactly his plan to make people believe that both of you are 'a thing'? Jennie ask quoting the last word.

"He said we have to be seen in public at least once in a month"

"At least? Which means there's probability that you guys will be seen together twice or even thrice or more than that in a month?" Jisoo looking at me furious.

I can't answer her. She might be right, since Armand not saying it specifically.

"And what make he thinks that people will interest in his private life?" This time Lisa asked me.

"Not his, but 'my private life'."

"I've huge fan following Lisa. He won't just choose me if he didn't see the impact I've for the brand, my social media engagement, the traffic that I caused whenever I appear in events. That's the reason for him to get me in this drama in the first place!"

"Him being 'romantically' involve with world top model, can attract people's attention and make the world search for him. Google search for his name will be high within second once I spotted regularly with him"

"How long will this drama take?" Jisoo asked without looking at me.

"2 years, because after 2 years his father will step back and board member start voting for his replacement. All he needs is just a good image as a businessman. A man who can manage his personal and professional life at the same time. They said people who can manage their personal and professional life, have a better sense in taking decisions for everything. And that's what every businessman need." I look at Jennie, who surprise by my glare. She seems understood my remarks.

"What? I've a balance life" Jennie shrugged, leaning back at couch.

"Then how about our private time together? Have you think about it? Does he know about us?" Asked Jisoo.

"Us? What do you mean by us? Is there anything I don't know here?" Jennie look at me and Jisoo.

Jisoo & me glancing each other and nodded.

"We both are dating" I said intertwining my hand to Jisoo and put it on my lap.

"WHAT?!" Jennie & Lisa said in unison.

"You said you haven't date yet!" They said in unison again which followed by looking at each other annoyed.

"Sorry.. We just thought it's not the time for you guys to know yet" Jisoo said rescued me.

"Back to Armand. I told him that when I need to be with you or when I'm with you, he can't interfere or ask me to be with him. And he agreed to that. I only give him 7 days in a month" I told them all.
