The Wife Is a Superstar 2

Chapter 359 - Family Meeting

However, nobody followed Jennie. They didn't move. They felt uncertain as to whether it was appropriate for them to go to the meeting or not.

Jennie returned, displeased at their indecisiveness.

"Alice, you're Aunt Jia's niece. Aunt Jia is Father's wife. You're family. Big Sister Jisoo, you're a Kim. You're family. Chaeng, you're not a Kim so you're not family, and I don't really care about you, but you should still go with us because the more people there are, the better," Jennie said.

"Bitch," Chaeng muttered under her breath. However, she didn't protest against Jennie's suggestion.

"And Yeon, you should also go with us. You're a friend of a Kim, me. You're a mother of a Kim, Little Jun. And now you're also a fiancée of a Kim, that big idiot beside you."

Donghwi pursed his lips at Jennie's words about him.

As for Hoyeon, fear and extreme anxiety filled her expression.

"Don't worry, Yeon. Even if that big idiot beside you can't properly protect you, I can and I will," Jennie told her in a much gentler tone.

"Yeah! Big Sis Yeon, don't worry. I'll stand by you as well. Even if the elders try to kick me out of the meeting, I'll just hug Ruby's thigh so I can stay. Besides, my Auntie is Madam Kim! That should count for something," Alice said.

Jisoo looked at Hoyeon and her expression softened. "Me too... I'll go, as well. I might not be able to do much, but I'll stand by you."

Chaeng released a heavy sigh. "If Jisoo is going, then I'm going as well. The elders are also hostile against her. I just can't leave my best friend alone in that kind of environment. Jisoo and Hoyeon are in a similar situation. I have said this to Jisoo a million times already but I'm going to say it again now. Your family sucks big time."

"Tell me something I don't know," Jennie said under her breath. Then she looked at Hoyeon, awaiting her decision.

Hoyeon looked at the young women and she instantly felt a lot better. Her fearful and anxious expression eased. She gave them a faint smile. "Thank you. I still really don't want to go to the meeting, but I'll do it. I'm not alone anymore."

The women all smiled at each other, feeling the connection between them growing stronger.

Donghwi felt completely left out. But seeing Hoyeon with a lighter expression, he couldn't help but smile as well. He was glad that she had found a support system with these friends of hers.

His sister was right. He was a big idiot for expecting his lady to endure the pain and hardships of facing the discrimination of the Kim family. She didn't deserve it. He wanted a happy family, but it wouldn't happen if the wife was suffering.

He raised her hand to his lips and kissed it. When she turned her attention to him, he whispered to her, "I'm sorry for my idiocy. I promise I'll do better from now on."

"Hmph. As you should," Jennie told him in a grumpy manner.

"Little sister, can you just please give me this moment with my fiancée?" he asked helplessly.

"You can have your moment later. We don't have time. Let's go to the meeting."

This time, everyone followed Jennie when she walked out of the party and headed to the library where the family meeting was being held. When they arrived, they could immediately feel the tense atmosphere inside.

"Even if you're the heir, making your elders wait for you for so long is unacceptable! Who do you think you are, the family head? You haven't succeeded your father yet, boy!" Jufang scolded Donghwi as soon as they entered the library.
