The Wife Is A Superstar 3

Chapter 482 - Once A Social Climber, Always A Social Climber

The netizens shared their opinions about the matter.

"Jiyong matches Jennie's hint that her fiancé is a businessman. I live in the south part of the country and I know that Mr.Kwon has acquired several businesses here in the town that I live in. They're just small businesses, but he acquired a few, so he's definitely rich."

"Oh! He also bought a couple of small businesses where I live! It was all over the local news. I was wondering who this Mr. Moneybags Jiyong is. So it turns out that he's actually Jennie's businessman fiancé."

"It seems like this Jiyong specializes in small businesses. He's certainly not as impressive as his grandfather Sir Jian, the business genius who founded Manoban Corporation with CEO Manoban's grandfather back in the day."

"So what if he's not as impressive? He's so hot and so manly! Boss sure is lucky to catch a man like him!"

"We're not yet sure if he's really Boss' fiancé, you know. His body build doesn't match the man in the photo boss shared on Feng Jiu's talk show."

"Easy! He probably worked out a lot since then!"

The netizens continued discussing Jiyong until a new wave of photos and reports were published online. The photos showed Jennie wearing a more elegant dress this time. The sun was setting in the background, so it was almost evening in France when the photos were taken. Jennie was seen shopping at the designer boutiques with her mother, Chaerin. It was only the mother and daughter this time, accompanied by a few bodyguards.

Many were surprised that Jennie and her mother were acting close. It was well-known that when Jennie was just a teenager, the mother and daughter didn't have a good relationship and that they fought all the time. It seemed like the two had already repaired their relationship.

Back in the country, it was already late at night. Faye, Jisoo's mother, was about to go to bed when her best friend sent her a website link. She clicked on it and saw the photos of Chaerin and Jennie shopping together in France.

"Hmm... Chaerin has become more elegant. She has finally matured, I guess. Good for her. And good for Ruby, too. At least the mother and daughter are beginning to bond like what nature intended," she murmured before finally going to sleep.

In another place, Ning, Jay's mother, was once again wrecking the things inside their house. Jay wasn't at home because he went for a business trip for a few days.

"Chaerin, you bitch! How dare you act like a celebrity?! Shopping at those designer stores and posing for the paparazzi! You think you're some kind of a big shot?! You're nothing but a slut! A slut! A FUCKING SLUT!!!"

In the Zheng ancestral residence, Sue, Hwi's mother, also saw the photos online. Her niece ran to her bedchamber even when it was already late at night just to show her the photos.

"That Chaerin—or whatever her name—is just using Jennie's celebrity status to attend such a prestigious international film festival. What a parasite," the niece commented. "Jennie isn't even famous abroad. Practically nobody knows her there. Well, except for those old people from the European classical world. But who cares about classical music? Booooriiiiing~ Whatever. Who do they think they are? Jennie and her mother are so full of themselves."

Sue scrolled down the tablet to view the rest of the photos.

"Once a social climber, always a social climber," she said in a cold voice filled with venom. "With a mother like that, her slut daughter is sure to lose her supporters in the Kim clan. Now that your Big Brother Hwi owns 7.5% shares in Kim Industries and is finally engaged to a suitable marriage partner, some of his previous supporters are returning to support him again. As is right. My son is the rightful heir to the Kim clan and Kim Industries. That slut mother and daughter are a joke. I don't even understand why that little slut managed to obtain such a strong group of supporters in the Kim clan."

While the aunt and niece insulted Chaerin and Jennie, Jihoon and his wife Jia were also looking at the same photos in the Kim ancestral residence.

"I hope that Chaerin doesn't embarrass my daughter at the international film festival," Jihoon muttered.

"I don't think so," Jia replied. "Alice says that Chaerin has been getting along with everyone in Ruby's household, especially the younger members of the staff. They look up to her."

Jihoon didn't reply.

Jia sighed. "People can and do change, Jihoon. Ruby changed and it seems that her mother has also changed for the better. Don't be so judgmental of Chaerin anymore. Ruby has accepted her back, so you should just let them connect as a mother and daughter should. Besides, it's not like you have any room to talk. Alice and her friends are very upset right now with your eldest son. Can't you intervene in their situation? Your eldest son and youngest daughter are currently at war against each other. I know that you want your adult children to make their own decisions and I commend you for that. But as a parent, do you want your children to fight like this and treat each other like enemies?"

"I also wasn't informed that my son broke up with Hoyeon and then got engaged with another woman. His mother and all the people involved hid it very well. It was already too late when my informants found out about it," he said. "I've already talked to my son but he wouldn't listen to me. He has also started regularly visiting his mother at the Zhengs."

"Maybe...how about let's invite Hwi and Ruby here for dinner?" Jia suggested. "Jihoon, let's help them resolve the issue with Hoyeon and Little Jun. I'm especially concerned for the well-being of the child. This kind of situation is not good for your grandson."

Jihoon was quiet for almost a minute, thinking, before he sighed and finally said, "Alright. We'll plan something."

The night drew to a close. Each of these people went to sleep with their own thoughts after seeing the photos of the mother Chaerin and her daughter Jennie.
