However, Jennie's plans regarding Donghwi and the Kim clan had to take a backseat for now. She needed to take care of her other plans first.

Jennie and Jiyong boarded one of Lisa's private jets. Hoyeon, Little Jun and Chaerin came with them.

The custody case was still pending because the judge hadn't issued an order for either Hoyeon or Donghwi's first appearance yet. Hong Shao told them that this might take around two to four weeks, depending on the judge. Sometimes it was quicker, while sometimes it took longer. Jennie and their camp didn't want Donghwi blocking Hoyeon from taking Little Jun with her abroad, so they didn't inform him. After all, their travel plans were already set long before Donghwi made trouble with Hoyeon and waged the custody battle against her for Little Jun.

"Let's leave it to Attorney Hong to deal with," Jennie said.

With that, they left the country. Jae, Alison, a couple of Jennie's bodyguards and some of Jiyong's subordinates accompanied them as well.

They headed to France.

The private jet landed in a small, private airport. It was currently filled with other private planes of all sizes. There were more scheduled to land throughout the day and even in the next few days. Jae and Alison had spotted some famous international celebrities disembarking from the other private jets. The two wished they could run up to them to ask for autographs and photos. However, security was tight in the airport, so they could only fangirl from far away.

Jennie and her group didn't waste any time staying at the private airport longer than necessary. There were private planes circling in the airspace above, waiting for their turn to land once the runway was cleared. They rode three limousines for their entire group. The Mediterranean Sea looked beautiful from a distance. There were also other limousines and other luxury cars headed the same way as them.

Afterwards, the limousines dropped them off at a private marina filled with an impressive collection of luxurious yachts. It was already autumn, but the weather in this place was still pleasantly warm during the day while cool in the evenings.

Jennie and her group were welcomed by the crew of a massive luxury yacht named "JL". The Captain was French and so were most of the crew. They recognized Jennie and greeted her first in French before greeting the others in English. Jiyong also spoke fluent French. The crew also showed respect to Chaerin, calling her Vizcondesa.

Jae, Alison and Hoyeon felt like they were dreaming. Everything was so glamorous, luxurious and impressive. It wasn't only the luxury yacht that they were about to embark on, but also the sight of famous international celebrities boarding their own similarly luxurious yachts in the marina. They honestly didn't know where to look because there was so much to see.

They boarded the yacht "JL" and cruised for about half an hour before they disembarked at a luxurious resort town on a beautiful riviera. The view was magnificent. There were more yachts in the riviera's marina. Many five-star hotels were located near the coast, a prime location because of the beautiful view of the Mediterranean Sea.

However, Jennie and her group didn't head to one of these hotels. They rode limousines again and were driven to one of the most exclusive neighbourhoods in the area. About twenty minutes later, they arrived at a sprawling Mediterranean-style villa estate. The huge mansion looked very similar to a place Jennie had visited before.

When they entered the mansion, a familiar booming voice greeted them.

"There you are! What took you so long? I want to know!"

Grandpa appeared. His delighted booming laughter echoed inside the grand foyer.

"Ampa! Ampa!" an excited child's voice called out.

Little Jun wriggled out of Hoyeon's arms until she put him down. Then the toddler ran towards his great-grandfather. Grandpa caught the child and lifted him up in his arms. He was still very strong despite his age.

"Little Junjun, my boy! You've grown so much since I've seen you! Come and give your Great-Grandpa a kiss!"

Of course, Little Jun obediently kissed the old man's cheek. Then he played with Grandpa's perfectly groomed mustache with his fingers while giggling.

Grandpa was too preoccupied with his great-grandson that he didn't pay much attention to Jennie, Jiyong and the others. They didn't mind, though. It was nice seeing both Little Jun and Grandpa so happy together. Hoyeon smiled seeing the scene. She felt thankful that her son was loved by so many people. These were the kind of people that she wanted her son to grow up with, not the toxic environment in the Kim clan. Donghwi would never be able to surround their son with this kind of genuinely loving people.

Since Grandpa was basically ignoring them, the French butler and the other household staff welcomed Jennie and others instead. Their luggage were sent to their assigned rooms.

In the meantime, the butler gave everyone a tour in the villa. Grandpa followed them while carrying Little Jun. He would interrupt the butler to give his own commentaries about the place.

The villa estate was owned by Lisa, but it was originally owned by Grandpa. It explained why the architecture and interior design matched Grandpa's loud style more than Lisa's. Grandpa sold the property to Lisa after he got bored of it. Although the property was technically now owned by Lisa, he hadn't stayed here even once yet. It was still Grandpa who frequently stayed in the villa whenever he felt like it.

For ten days, this villa estate would be their home.

At a five-star Oriental hotel.

In the same riviera, the cast and crew of the film "Strong Yet Broken" just checked in at the hotel. Guan Jintao and his wife were also scheduled to arrive the next day. JL Productions took care of their hotel bookings.

"Where's Jennie Kim?" the actress playing Guan Jintao's mother asked. "I thought that she's coming."

The President of JL Productions answered her. "I received information that Miss Kim has already arrived. She has prepared her own accommodations in a separate location. We'll meet her tomorrow."

"Must be nice to be born into a rich family," the actor playing the adult Guan Jintao commented. "Jennie can afford to book her own hotel. I saw the rates in this hotel and I almost had a heart attack. It's even more expensive right now because of the event. I would never stay here if I have to pay with it out of my own pocket."

He turned to the President of JL Productions. "So thank you very much, sir, for allowing me to experience this kind of luxury. I'll never forget this in my life. Wait, you know what? This entire experience is something I'll never forget in my life. I'm so glad that I accepted the offer to act in this film! I can't believe that we're actually participating in the prestigious Sommet International Film Festival!"
