Bright Summit scheduled a major interview for Jennie to answer all the questions and rumours surrounding her once and for all. Originally, Bright Summit wanted to hold a press conference for Jennie but Alison fought for a one-to-one interview instead. It would be a safer bet especially for someone as straightforward as Jennie because at least they could choose the interviewer, unlike a press conference which was free-for-all.

Before the interview, Jennie invited Alison to Dragon Palace Home #10.

"Jennie, you bought a new mansion?" The manager asked when she arrived. She took off her coat and handed it to the butler.

"No. This is my fiancé's, but it's our home now," Jennie replied while stroking the plump Lily in her arms. Leo was sniffing Alison's feet.

They were at the grand foyer. Alison had seen a fair share of luxurious and palatial residences especially since she worked in showbiz, but this mansion was on another level. After the redecoration, the mansion was now warm and welcoming compared to its previous cold and crypt-like atmosphere. There were monograms with the letters JL everywhere from the pillowcases to the curtains and other decorations.

"JL? Sounds familiar...hmmm..." Alison murmured. "Jennie, your fiancé is rich."

"I know."

Jennie led her manager further inside the grand foyer. Leo trotted beside them while Lily enjoyed her Mommy's embrace.

"Oh!" Alison stopped. Her eyes widened as she looked up at the top of the twin staircases. There was a huge portrait of Jennie and a cold handsome man together with the two cats. "Jennie, is that your fiancé?"

"Yes."

"Why do I think he looks familiar? I think I've seen him before..."

Jennie didn't reply, leading her manager to the drawing room instead. A tall man was sitting on one of the sofas reading a newspaper. Leo immediately ran to the man and rubbed himself against him, meowing loudly, asking to be petted. Lily also wiggled in Jennie's arms, asking to be put down so that she could also go to the man.

"Hon, my manager is here," Jennie said as she walked towards him.

The tall man stood up after petting the two cats. Then he gave Jennie a quick nuzzle before facing the manager.

Alison was struck by the beautiful couple in front of her. She just stood there like a stupid idiot, her eyes goggling at them. They looked so perfect together that they didn't seem real. When she finally regained her senses, Alison had the strongest feeling that she knew this man. She just couldn't remember who he was at the moment.

"Hello, my name is Alison of Bright Summit Entertainment Company. I'm your fiancée's manager. It's nice to meet you, Mister?"

The man stepped forward and shook hands with her. "Hello. Welcome to our home, Miss Alison. Thank you for taking care of my fiancé. My name is Lisa Manoban. It's also nice to meet you."

"L-Lisa Manoban?!!!"

Alison's heart stopped for a few seconds. Her eyes felt like they were going to pop out of her head while her jaw felt like it was going to dislocate from her shock. Of course she recognized the President-CEO of Manoban Corporation! Not to mention that he was also the elder brother of V who was one of Bright Summit's biggest prides.

"Y-you...Jennie...you're engaged to L-Lisa Manoban?! The Lisa Manoban?!!" She asked in disbelief.

Jennie nodded. "Please sit down, Ali."

"Yes! Yes, I need to sit down...oh..." The manager dropped on the sofa like a heavy rock. Her wide eyes stared at the couple like they were extinct creatures brought back to life.
