After coming back to her dressing room which she shared with other co-actresses, Ji-won threw her script to the bench inside the room and was so angry.
The display on Jennie's phone screen showing her recent messages still played in her mind.
Especially the total amount of money Jennie received. From the details and time, it seems she had just received it when they were speaking to each other. No wonder Jennie was in a daze when Ji-won had been attacking her for a while and got no response from her.
But 520 million?!!
Was she seeing things? But it didn't seem like it was a lie nor did it look like Jennie edited it out of spite to her. On the contrary, the shock and surprise in Jennie's expression when she received that message was realistic and no pretentious acting was added in it.
So, did Jennie really have a gold master who gave her 100 -- no, 520 million?
Just thinking about it was enough for Ji-won to gloat and become as gloom as the bad weather for several years. Even the man who saved her career could not even compare to Jennie's gold master!
"What's wrong with you? Do you think you can just go out there on the stage and act like a rookie actress who had her first filming in her life?!" Manager Zhang quickly stormed inside the dressing room and checked it to see if there was no one in then he finally scolded her.
Ji-won already learned her lesson three years ago and did not want to get on Manager Zhang's bad side. She gloomily apologized, "Sorry, I just saw something unexpected and was lost in thought."
Manager Zhang also saw that this was the case and tried to ask her, "What's going on? Did something happen between you and Mr. Li?"
Mr. Li was Ji-wons gold master. He was the one who saved her from her ruination three years ago. If he hadn't appeared in her life, Ji-won was sure that she wouldn't be able to find herself anywhere but as another one of Kai's sleeve holes.
Ji-won shook her head.
She considered telling the truth to Manager Zhang. Jennie's gold master was really rich for him to be able to fork out 520 million in just one morning. But that wasn't the problem. Ji-won knew that even if she told the press about what she saw or even showed them a screenshot of it, nobody would truly believe her.
After all, Jennie fearlessly admitted that she had a gold master and even told everyone she got a hundred million per month as pocket money. Yet, nobody believed her words and even followed the trend.
Who could possibly believe that the amount Jennie would get would be five times the amount of what she told everyone in her post.
Ji-won was not reconciled, but she was smart enough to not say anything about this. Even if she really hated Jennie, she learned the lesson the hard way through Jennie three years ago.
Would she want to fall back to a ground filled with muddy water or stay where she's more comfortable? Between these two choices, Ji-won knew what she would pick at a glance.
Manager Zhang was glad to hear that nothing was wrong between Ji-won and Mr. Li. At least, he could still get his money's worth out of her if she continued being that man's sugar baby.
"If there's nothing wrong, don't embarrass me in front of everyone! Act properly as you've been taught by those professional acting teachers Mr. Li got for you!"
"I know." Ji-won finally calmed down.
Jennie was already difficult enough to handle and now that she had someone to back her up, maybe in this lifetime, Ji-won will never ever catch up to her.
