So, Y/N stood up in front of everyone. With her head held high, she said in a dominant tone, "Wait here!"

When it came to other things, Kyra may not have felt confident. But, when it came to her body, she was extremely proud.

For the World's Most Beautiful Breasts Ranking, she was in the top 3.

For the World's Most Beautiful Bottom Ranking, she was in the top 3.

On the runway, these were the features she was most confident about; she had never lost before. She refused to believe that Y/N had any chance of winning against her; even if Y/N had Taehyung backing her.

Kyra seemed consumed in Taehyung's suggestion and hadn't fully grasped the seriousness of being frozen. All she was focused on was winning against Y/N - she just wanted to win!

Meanwhile, the other artists present were waiting to witness a good show. Kim Entertainment had never experienced an internal battle like this before and seeing brothers and sisters of the same agency tear each other apart was a rare sight. They were surprisingly anticipating it.

For Kim Entertainment, Kyra was a first; she actually dared to challenge Taehyung in front of everyone. So, her fate was no surprise...

She was going to be frozen...

Yet, she remained calm and collected. She had no idea how dire of a situation she was being thrown into. It seemed, she assumed, even without Kim Entertainment, she still had Star King.

Star King could still provide her with a dazzling alternative.

While waiting for Y/N, Taehyung stood up and returned to discuss an upcoming movie with one of Kim Entertainment's producers; a hit song with a music producer; scripts with a few actors. He didn't seem worried at all that Y/N would embarrass the agency and slap him in the face...

However, there were a few actors that were a little worried. After all, Kyra was the first person to lay everything on the table with Kim Entertainment over the years and she was quite charismatic.

"President Kim, will Kyra expose Kim Entertainment's information to the outside world?"

Hearing this query, Taehyung smiled and replied, "If she plans to do that, she will need to prepare two hundred million dollars. One hundred million to compensate Kim Entertainment and one hundred million to compensate anyone affected by her claims. We will simply do a little bit of PR and the damage shouldn't be too much."

In other words, Kyra would have to be crazy to throw away money like that...

Two hundred million dollars...

With that money, she could live the rest of her life comfortably even if she was no longer a model. This was the reason why Kim Entertainment had never experienced an internal betrayal over the years - the compensation was too high!

At this moment, Kyra stood amongst the crowd all on her own; no one wanted to talk to her...

Kyra sneered. It was indeed human nature to seek advantages and avoid losses...

"Just wait and see. When Y/N reappears, I will slap you all in the face."

...

At the same time, the public were also paying attention to the two women. As Kim Entertainment did not invite any media to the dinner, even if the public were interested in Y/N and Kyra's battle, they didn't receive any updates. Some paparazzi even disguised as waiters and hid pinhole cameras on their body, but were kicked out by the strict security...

This was Kim Entertainment. Unlike other places, no matter how good their disguise was, they would not be able to get past the eyes of the professional security!

The internet was in an uproar.

Y/N had more fans than Kyra because she was currently very popular. However, she didn't have a strong fighting power.

On the other hand, although Kyra didn't have as many fans, she was well-experienced in the modeling industry. So, she could easily deal with three enemies at once, let alone one.

There wasn't much expectation for the final outcome. Everyone expected both parties to suffer a loss...

"I think Kyra has a dominating stage presence. Y/N is a little lacking in comparison."

"The previous commenter must be crazy. If stage presence is determined by dominance, what about performance ability?"

"No matter what, Y/N won't win. Look at all the famous forums, Y/N's already being defamed like crazy, yet you are still trying to argue with me? Get ready to kneel down in defeat!"

"No matter if Y/N wins or not, it won't change the fact that the CEO of Kim Entertainment is her manager. Of course, if Kyra ends up losing this time, it will be quite embarrassing."

"I support Kyra!"

"I support Y/N!"

The public's discussions started to heat up a bit. Meanwhile, inside the hall at Kim Entertainment's celebration dinner, everyone was straining their necks as they waited in anticipation.

Kyra looked at the empty doorway as her lips slowly curved upwards. Could it be that Y/N had run away in fear?

However, just as everyone was discussing why Y/N had not yet reappeared...

...someone suddenly screamed in excitement. At that moment, Y/N stepped onto the red carpet wearing the slightly transparent starry sky ball gown.

Her ink-black hair was tied up and her makeup was delicate but simple; completely contrasting Kyra's thick makeup. She only had a little bit of lipstick on.

However, the gown on her body...

...was magnificent...

...like a night sky...

No nightscape could compare to the scene on the red carpet. Y/N walked down the red carpet as the hem of her gown dragged behind her. The diamonds on the gown sparkled like little stars. It was such an eye-opening sight that the people witnessing the scene gasped in surprise...

With the appearance of Y/N, Kyra looked cheap in comparison.

In fact, she looked disgustingly cheap...

...like a hooker standing on the side of the street trying to attract business.

Most importantly, underneath the layers of transparent tulle, Y/N's breasts looked voluptuous and extremely attractive.

When looking back at Kyra again, her breasts looked saggy in comparison.

Noone ever noticed that Y/N also had nice breasts, because they had always focused on her long legs!

Breasts could be enlarged and a curvy bottom could be shaped with training. However, long legs was something one had to be born with...it was on a whole different level. This was the conclusion that everyone present came to.

"Oh God...Y/N's body is amazing!"

"Look at Kyra, her expression is completely stiff. Plus, I can confidently affirm that Y/N will become even more successful than Kyra. Look at this ball gown for example, if Kyra was to wear it, how would it have turned out?"

"I can already tell she doesn't have long enough legs to support the gown."

"Can you imagine how Y/N would look if she wore Kyra's dress? She would have an unexplainable cool about her."

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. Even Kyra felt a little inferior when faced with the current Y/N. As a model, she could interpret the look in people's eyes. If only one person's eyes looked a certain way, it would probably represent a biased opinion. But, when everyone looked the same, then what they were thinking was the truth!

Everyone's eyes were upon Y/N; they were shocked by her appearance.

Not long after, Y/N made her way over to Taehyung and asked, "What do you think?"

"God! I've finally realized the brand of clothing Y/N is wearing. It's from Catherine Walker's Premium Collection. The price surpasses 8 figures and is the brand used by the British royal family!"

"It looks so beautiful on her. If she was on the runway right now, I probably wouldn't be able to resist even though I might not be able to afford it."

"Y/N is really good at influencing people to like a piece of clothing as well as the person wearing it! She is nothing like Kyra. Whenever I see Kyra on the stage, I forget she's even wearing any clothes. All she knows how to do is show off herself and has no idea how to exhibit a piece of clothing."

Where did things go wrong? Kyra asked herself...

She had been on runways both big and small and had experienced a variety of battles. So, why did she feel self-conscious when it came to Y/N?

Kyra analyzed Y/N from head to toe and realized she had never seen legs as perfect as hers. Those that exercised often would know that those with perfect legs would naturally have a good looking bottom as well.

So, the two things Kyra was most proud of, Y/N also had. Whereas, the thing that Y/N had, she would never be able to possess in an entire lifetime.

Under the luxurious lighting, everyone's focus was on Y/N. At this time, Kyra couldn't get herself to accept the outcome, so she directly fell onto the floor. However, no one stretched out their hand to help her up.

"What was the point? She brought upon her own disgrace!"

"Kyra is such a proud person. She always thought Y/N would lose to her. The fact that she ended up this way is not unusual at all."

"Reality has proven that Y/N is more suited to the runway than Kyra. I have yet to see a piece of clothing that Y/N doesn't suit - this is what you call a born coat-hanger figure."

At this moment, Kyra no longer heard anything. If she didn't hear the comparision, she wouldn't feel hurt.

On the international runway, she was indeed dazzling. But...this was because she wore clothes specifically chosen for her by the designer. In reality, there were a lot of styles she could not pull off. On the other hand...Y/N was extremely versatile. She was connected by mind and heart to her clothes and could quickly highlight its features.

Most importantly, Y/N was proud and demanded attention just like Kyra...

However, she kept a low profile!

Some people even snapped photos of the two women on their phones; one appeared cheap and disgusting, while the other was shockingly beautiful.

As soon as he heard Y/N's question, Taehyung responded, "I am a bit regretful that I bought this gown for you. Right now, all I want to do is remove my jacket and wrap you up in it."

Y/N's face involuntarily turned red...

Afterwards, Taehyung let go of Y/N and ordered the security, "Please escort Miss Kyra out of the building."

"No need, I can show myself out," Kyra stood up from the floor in embarrassment. With her last bit of stubbornness, she made her way out of the hall, "I will remember the humiliation I suffered today."

"Kyra is a sore loser..."

"It must be because she never imagined she'd be overshadowed by someone, so she suffered quite a blow..."

After Kyra left, everyone felt they no longer needed to suppress the atmosphere. Some even approached Y/N to flirt with her. But, just as Y/N was to respond to them, Taehyung removed his jacket and wrapped Y/N up in it.

As soon as everyone saw the scene in front of them...

They wondered if it was possible...

...that the infamous CEO of Kim Entertainment was feeling a little jealous because Y/N's gown was too revealing.

If he couldn't handle even this, then...

What would he do if Y/N was to take on an underwear show?

"Hey," Y/N turned around and protested, "Don't cheat."

Taehyung stood by her side and simply replied, "Since you've returned to being the model, Y/N, then I am naturally your manager again. Whatever your manager instructs you to do, you must obey."

The artists around them laughed. It seemed, this gown was the most regretful piece of clothing Taehyung had ever bought.

The celebration dinner continued, but Taehyung put down his wine glass and said to Y/N, "Come to the waiting room!" After giving his order, he turned to the people around him and told them he was popping out to take a phone call.

Not long after, Y/N used the bathroom as an excuse to head straight to the waiting room. However, just as she opened the door, a strong force pushed her against the wall. She then felt Taehyung's passionate kiss press against her lips. It was not until they were both out of breath that Taehyung stopped and looked down at her...

"If it wasn't because I wanted Kyra to see how good your body is, I would never buy you a gown like this."

Y/N giggled, "Are you jealous?"

Taehyung once again pressed Y/N against the wall and whispered in her ear, "I'm not jealous...the problem is, you are too seductive. I'm afraid something might happen."

With the current atmosphere and the ambiguity of the situation, it wasn't hard for Y/N to figure out what Taehyung meant...

"Then, should I get changed?"

Taehyung wanted to continue but Y/N placed her hands on top of her chest and said, "Taehyung...there are a lot of people around."

In the end, Taehyung simply nibbled Y/N's ear for a little while before letting go, "Hurry and come back out." After speaking, Taehyung let go of Y/N and left the waiting room. At this time, everyone at Kim Entertainment were talking about some photos that had been placed online.

They were comparison photos of Y/N and Kyra from not too long ago...

Inside the same photo, Kyra undoubtedly became a part of the background for Y/N.

"Why is Kyra so pitiful?" Netizens began to express their opinions.

"Here I was being so trusting of her and having so much faith in her dominating presence on the stage."

"Dominance means nothing when she appears different online and offline. No wonder she lost to Y/N."

"I finally know why Y/N won. It's because she is capable of wearing any clothes - she is indeed amazing."

"Most importantly, I noticed these photos were released with bad intentions. The photos specifically targeted both their chests."

"I'm sorry, but I must say Y/N is the winner. It has nothing to do with her clothes."

On the way home, Kyra lay in the back seat and burst out crying. Meanwhile...sitting in the driver's seat, Charlene found herself unusually pleased with the result. Who would have expected Y/N to have the ability to damage this woman so much.

"I want to kill Y/N! I want this woman to be destroyed!" Kyra screamed as she cried.

Do you still have the chance? Kyra sneered at the thought.

In the past, she had multiple people following her around ready to answer to her bidding. However, Taehyung had now dismissed her team. Did she still think of herself as Kim Entertainment's treasure?

There was still more suffering heading her way.

...

In order not to make Taehyung jealous, Y/N changed into a long white dress before leaving the waiting room, escorted by Suho.

As soon as everyone saw her, they couldn't help but tease, "Junior Sister got told!"

"Junior Sister, did President Kim disapprove of you wearing the starry night ball gown? What a shame, it's so expensive..."

"Junior Sister, just a moment ago, President stepped out for a bit and so did you. Did you guys..."

Seeing everyone teasing her, Taehyung squeezed through the crowd and pulled her over to his side to protect her.

Of course, when faced with Taehyung, who still dared to joke around?

Under the bright lighting, Y/N turned her head and glanced at Taehyung. This almighty king of the entertainment industry, her man, was currently scanning her up and down with a look of admiration.

Y/N looked at him curiously. Just as she was about to question him, Taehyung spoke up first, "I have good news related to you..."

"Huh?" Y/N looked at him questioningly as she bit her bottom lip.

"The world-class designer Claude N. has sent Kim Entertainment an invite. They want you to attend the launch event for their new product," Taehyung explained, "You should be aware that not many people have the ability to attract the attention of world-class designers. Within Asia, you are now one of them..."

Claude N...

Y/N was shocked, "How is this possible?"

"A while ago, I sent your information to the US to go in the running for 'The Most Beautiful Legs in the World' and Claude N. was fascinated by you," Taehyung grabbed two glasses of champagne from a passing waiter and passed one to Y/N, "It's a shame we just missed out on the Victoria's Secret event."

"We still have next year..." Y/N comforted. "No matter what changes happen in the future, who's to say I won't appear on the Victoria's Secret runway next year?"

Taehyung reached out his hand and stroked Y/N's hair as he said in a gentle voice, "You've only taken 4 months to achieve all this, you're already amazing."

"When will we be heading for the event?"

"The 18th. I'll go with you. I'll help you battle the world."

The edge of Y/N's eyes suddenly reddened as she held onto the champagne with one hand and grabbed Taehyung's hand with the other. While no one noticed, she intertwined her fingers with his.

"Hey, Junior Sister, the song you sang with Somi at the awards ceremony was really nice. Could you sing it again?" everyone started to get hyped up as they requested Y/N to perform.

However...she wasn't a singer...With so many famous singers on the scene, Y/N didn't want to embarrass herself.

"I only sang it for fun," Y/N replied.

"It doesn't matter Yook Sungjae isn't an actor either, but he often guest stars on shows, haha!"

"Yes that's right Junior Sister, hurry, go on..."

Y/N looked at Taehyung helplessly as she pinched his hand gesturing for him to help her. However, Taehyung tossed away her hand and said, "Go ahead."

Y/N lifted her head and looked around. Suddenly, an idea came to mind. She grabbed Taehyung's hand again and dragged him towards the stage.

"Wow...Is President Kim going to sing?"

"I wonder how President sounds like when he sings."

"He's not tone deaf right?"

"Would someone as capable as President Kim be tone deaf? Would you believe it if I told you President Kim could outdo all the best actors if he decided to act?"

Taehyung was dragged onto the stage by Y/N while the crowd quickly gathered around.

Y/N held onto a microphone and handed Taehyung the other one as she looked at him seriously, trying to determine whether he was willing to sing with her, "If you really don't want to, then forget about it...It's just, after being married for so long, apart from understanding your habits, I don't know what other hobbies you have and what else you are capable of..."

Taehyung lifted his eyebrows, "What I am and aren't capable of, isn't there plenty of information about it?"

"You know as well as I do know how truthful the information in the outside world is."

"Do you really want to sing with me?"

Y/N nodded her head, satisfying his pride.

Taehyung did not say anything. He simply grabbed the microphone from Y/N's hand and placed it to one side. He then looked over at the violinist, "Pass me the violin."

The man quickly handed over his violin. Taehyung held the violin in his hands and looked at Y/N, "There are too many people, I don't want to sing. However...I can provide music for you."

"You can't sing?"

"I don't sing in front of just anyone. When we get home...I'll sing to you all you like," Taehyung chuckled before reminding here, "Let's get started."

The violin was one of Taehyung's many skills, so those present weren't that surprised. However, none of them had ever heard him perform.

As for Taehyung's other skills, not many people were truly sure.

Everyone watched as Taehyung placed the violin on his shoulder. A moment later, the prelude to the song 'Lost' resonated across everyone's ears. Y/N lifted the microphone to her mouth and began to sing. Although, her singing wasn't at a professional level, she at least remembered all the lyrics and notes and her voice was pleasant to the ear...

Not long after, they reached the interlude. The melodious sound of the violin intertwined itself into the song, surprising most of the singers present.

The part that Taehyung played was the most passionate part of the song.

Y/N was also mesmerized. She was used to seeing the suited up Taehyung who ruled the business world. So, it was rare to see this side of him.

The Taehyung that played the violin...

Y/N remained in a daze. She even forgot that the song was only halfway through. Taehyung quickly glanced at her as a reminder, but Y/N had already put down her microphone. She simply wanted to listen to Taehyung play the rest of the song.

Taehyung looked deep in her eyes and decided to let her have her way as he concentrated on playing the rest of the song. After he finished, he returned the violin to the violinist.

Everyone was satisfied. Out of all the celebration dinners Kim Entertainment had hosted over the years, this was the first time Taehyung had completely let go. Not only did he laugh and chat with everyone, he even performed on stage.

However, was Taehyung really that nice? He acted this way simply because he wanted Y/N to be taken care of and he wanted her to have more friends; he wanted her to suffer less.

With a blink of an eye, the celebration dinner neared its end. Taehyung wanted to leave with Y/N, but because Y/N didn't have much on and had been wearing high heels for too long, her legs were beginning to show discomfort.

Taehyung glanced at her quickly and suddenly knelt down in front of her as they were leaving, "Hop on, I'll carry you..."

"There are people outside!" Y/N reminded him to quickly get up.

"Are you going to get on, or do you want me to force you?"

In order not to discuss this matter in front of everyone, Y/N ended up climbing onto Taehyung's back, "Everyone in the agency knows now!"

"The people outside of the agency don't know," Taehyung replied. "As long as I don't allow them to spread rumors, no one will dare speak of it. Only when I hint for them to spread something, will the public hear about it. For example..."

For example, Y/N and Kyra's comparison photo...

At present, Y/N was still unaware of the photo. Neither was she aware that, as soon as Kyra returned to her apartment she was severely beaten.

Taehyung had said he was going to give her an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...

...and Suho's arrangement was on point. Even if Kyra was to go to hospital, she would have no idea who hit her.

Charlene also did not avoid the beating. A person like her was going to get beaten sooner or later. However, Charlene knew this was Kim Entertainment's doing and couldn't just sit and endure it. She intended on taking Kim Entertainment's secret with her to Star King, so she could live happily ever after with her boyfriend.

Inside the quiet and luxurious hotel, Rose and Chanyeol were enjoying a dinner together.

Chanyeol kept his promise. Since he agreed they wouldn't meet his parents, he did not make things difficult for Rose. However...as Rose thought about Chanyeol's suggestion to go to his home after, she couldn't help but feel nervous; her palms began to get sweaty.

She had not prepared herself for taking their relationship to the next level...

In order to hide her flustered heart, Rose browsed the news on her phone while eating the steak Chanyeol had thoughtfully cut for her.

Every time she saw an impressive photo of Y/N, she would cheer; and every time she saw an embarrassing photo of Kyra, she would complain.

In the end, after the celebration dinner finished, she came across news of Charlene being seriously beaten with a photo as proof.

Rose lifted her head and looked at Chanyeol before showing the phone to him, "Was this Boss's doing?"

Chanyeol glanced down slightly and replied in a confused tone, "It seems you have faster information sources than I do."

Rose was surprised by his reaction so she swapped Chanyeol's plate with her plate of completely cut up steak, "I am just being nosy. There is no need for you to know because everything is under control..."

Rose did not hide the adoration she had towards Chanyeol's professionalism.

But, the fact that Rose managed to beat all the paparazzi and big media companies and find this information online first, wasn't easy to achieve.

"Is this Charlene brainless? Does she think people will care if she complains and whines online like this?"

"First there was the humiliation from Kyra and then there was Kim Entertainment's revenge. Now, Star King has even cut communication with her. Apart from going online, what else can she do?" Chanyeol looked seriously at Rose as he put down his knife and fork. "Do you want to spend our entire dinner talking about work?"

Rose was stunned as she felt herself get flustered again. She replied in a tiny voice, "It's all because you scared me."

"Me?" Chanyeol didn't understand.

"You said to go to your place after dinner..."

As soon as Chanyeol heard her response he let out a laugh, "I remember someone once said they are against pre-marital sex. Can't your brain think about other things?"

Rose let out a sigh and complained, "When you say stuff like 'come to my place after dinner', any girl would misunderstand."

"I won't do anything to you!"

Rose threatened Chanyeol with a fork, "You wouldn't dare."

Chanyeol laughed helplessly as he gestured for her to quickly finish her food. With Chanyeol's guarantee, Rose finally relaxed and placed everything she didn't like to eat onto Chanyeol's plate.

Of course, as a boyfriend, Chanyeol's mission was to demolish everything his girlfriend didn't like to eat.

After an enjoyable dinner, Chanyeol indeed brought Rose back to his apartment. The two people walked in through the front door one after another. As promised, Chanyeol did not take things too far with Rose. But, he did end up pressing her against the sofa and kissed her passionately.

At first, Rose tried to break loose. She felt Chanyeol wasn't keeping his promise. But, as she felt her heart race, she asked herself: Don't you also desire this man's kiss?

So, she relaxed...

The couple kissed like there was no tomorrow. But, that's as far as they got before Chanyeol let go of Rose. He then returned to his room to solve a manly problem.

Rose leaned against the door and laughed as she covered her beating heart.

...

Inside the dark and dreary apartment room, it was so quiet that not a sound could be heard.

After being beaten and abandoned by her boyfriend, Charlene hid in Kyra's room, unwilling to come out. Exposing everything online was the only thing she could do. But, in reality, she had only received slight external injuries.

She had originally went to look for her boyfriend, intending to exchange secrets about Kim Entertainment for a position in Star King. However, when she returned to her boyfriend's home, she found him having an orgy with multiple models.

Charlene ran out distraught and broken-hearted but discovered she had nowhere to go; all she had was Kyra's apartment key. So, she headed over to Kyra's apartment. But, what about the future? What was she to do from now on?

Charlene stood up and looked around Kyra's room before making a dangerous decision. She opened her pocket and took all of Kyra's jewelry. After all these years, even if she didn't achieve much, she should be at least rewarded for her hard work, right?

Taking this wasn't much!

Especially when she thought about all the hitting and punching Kyra had given her, Charlene practically flipped the house upside down and took everything she could find. However, as she left the apartment, she received a phone call from an unfamiliar number.

"Is this Miss Charlene? How are you? I am a reporter from DSP Media Studio, my surname is Lin. I am calling you regarding the pitiful post you placed online today. Since you have got to this point, there is no longer any reason for you to stay in Kim Entertainment. How about you come join us at DSP Media?"

"I'm not interested..." After replying, Charlene intended on hanging up the phone, however, the man's next sentence completely caught her attention.

"We are currently stalking Y/N. If you can provide us with some clues, we can negotiate a price."

Y/N!

Thinking of this name that made her grind her teeth, Charlene ended up pulling her car to one side and giving her demands, "I need a place to stay."

"No problem," the man quickly replied.

"Give me an address, I'll go there right now."

DSP Media had been endlessly collecting information about Y/N having relationships with men; they thought she had been with multiple men. However, as they watched Y/N advance smoothly, eventually becoming a signed model of Kim Entertainment's, the people at DSP Media didn't feel it was fair. Not only did they want to expose Y/N, they were obsessed with unveiling Y/N's 'mask'.

2am. Charlene stopped her car outside the building where DSP Media was located. At first, she was a little afraid. But, she realized she had already lost everything; what was there left for people to trick and gain from her?

Gathering her courage, Charlene entered the building and successfully met with Editor Lin.

In order to show his sincerity, Editor Lin presented the information he had already gathered and explained, "The first time I discovered something was wrong with Y/N was in the US. Afterwards, I tailed her to a few other places before capturing a photo of her kissing a man."

"Right now, she has rumors with the CEO of Kim Entertainment. This woman consistently claims she has no boyfriend, but she is full of lies. She practically meets up with a different man in every country."

Charlene looked at the blurry picture. There was no way she could tell who the man in the photo was, let alone make out that it was Taehyung.

"What do you want me to do?" Charlene asked. Deep down, she felt her and Editor Lin shared the same enemy.

"Do you have information about Y/N and the CEO of Kim Entertainment? Anything at all; photos?" Editor Lin asked. "All we are missing is solid evidence. I'm sure Y/N will end up looking for another man. As long as we capture a photo, I can completely destroy her."

Photos?

Kim Entertainment's staff definitely had some. But, there was no way they'd share it to the outside world. Since, she was still technically employed at Kim Entertainment, getting her hands on a photo wasn't a difficult task. But, what about compensation for breaching her contract?

The compensation would be close to one hundred million! Charlene didn't dare to take the risk.

"As long as you can get a photo for me, you can ask for anything," Editor Lin boasted.

"But, the fate of exposing one of Kim Entertainment's secrets is not a pleasant sight."

"That's an easy issue to deal with. If one of Kim Entertainment's staff drops their phone...and someone happens to pick it up, who's to blame? Even if Taehyung is to seek responsibility, he would target the person that dropped their phone and not you."

Charlene contemplated for a moment and felt what he said was quite reasonable, "What do I get out of it?"

"Shares of DSP Media Studio. Once Y/N's scandal is exposed, DSP Media will become famous. Did you think there would be a lack of people willing to throw money at you?" Editor Lin smiled frivolously at Charlene.

Charlene thought for a moment. Just the thought of Kim Entertainment's artists and even Y/N groveling at her feet made her exceptionally happy. This cheered her up more than making money. So, in the end, Charlene nodded her head and signed a contract. Her task now was to head back to Kim Entertainment and obtain evidence of intimacy between Y/N and other artists. She could only hope everything ran smoothly, otherwise, if she got caught by Taehyung...

...she would die without a trace!

...

After the celebration dinner, Taehyung and Y/N returned home reeking of alcohol.

From the moment they entered their home, Y/N grabbed onto Taehyung as they spun around dizzily. In the end, the couple fell onto the sofa. Y/N lay on top of Taehyung's body and rubbed her nose against his neck, "Taehyung...I'm really happy."

"I can tell," Taehyung allowed her to continue rubbing her nose against him. It was rare for him to see Y/N this relaxed and to see her smile from her heart - especially in front of so many strangers.

If she could remain this happy, he was willing to do anything.

"What else can you do? Can you dance? Can you?"

Taehyung was wrapped so tightly in this woman's embrace but she had no sense at all. So, Taehyung helped her up and led her into a dance on the slippery tiled floor. Of course, when leading a drunkard, he could only do the most simple dance.

Y/N leaned on Taehyung's body as she moved along with his movement. Neither of them spoke, but Y/N felt the atmosphere at the moment was beautiful. They didn't need to say anything nor do anything, all she needed to do was follow his movement until the end of time...

After what felt like half a day, Y/N mumbled, "Have you thought about what to do if the people at Kim Entertainment don't accept our relationship? Taehyung...did you know, tonight my heart was really unsettled?"

"I was really worried that there'd be a second or third Kyra here to seek trouble. If that was to happen, I will blame myself and be really upset."

"But, you were so confident when you were up against Kyra."

"How could I let others bully you?" Y/N replied naturally. "Even I can't bear to complain about you, so others definitely don't have the right. How could I not be angry?"

Taehyung hugged her and suddenly revealed a happy smile.

Although he had experienced being doted on like this is in the past, being protected by Y/N again made him feel exceptionally sweet. His heart had never been filled with so much sweetness.

"From now on, if we come across a situation like this again, I will still give my all."

Taehyung suddenly froze in place, wrapped his arms around her and pressed her against the sofa, "I don't need you to give your all, I just need you to give yourself to me."

Under the dim and warm lighting, Y/N still clearly saw Taehyung's handsome face. Perhaps, it was because she had already memorized his features.

So, she lifted her head and nibbled on Taehyung's lower lip...she then intertwined her alcohol-infused tongue with his...

She defeated him with one kiss. Y/N hooked Taehyung's neck and said in a tipsy tone, "What should I do? I feel like I'm falling more in love with you."

"You've only realized now?"

"I sweetly accept my fate." After speaking, Y/N flipped over and pressed Taehyung under her body, "Let me take the control for once."

...

The morning after Kim Entertainment's celebration dinner, rumors started spreading about Kim Entertainment banning Kyra. At this time, Kim Entertainment's PR department did not deny anything, hinting that the rumors weren't merely rumors and was the truth.

As for who started the rumors, everyone within the industry was well aware. Apart from Kim Entertainment themselves, no one would dare do such a thing.

It was actually understandable. Kim Entertainment had always been extremely united, so the fact that Kyra was brave enough to provoke Taehyung's authority meant she was going to leave the agency sooner or later. Hence, it was better for them to swiftly get rid of her.

When it came to things like this, Kim Entertainment had always been swift like lightning.

This was because they wanted to send everyone a message: anyone brave enough to ruin the unity in Kim Entertainment would end up like Kyra. By making Kyra the first artist to be directly banned by Kim Entertainment, they wanted to create a shocking impact.

No matter who you are, if you dare to cross Kim Entertainment's bottom line, you will be thrown into a place beyond redemption.

Kyra sat in the hospital room as she read the news on her phone. Crystal-like teardrops rolled down her pale and wounded face. Who would have thought, overnight, Kim Entertainment would be able to completely destroy her. Yet, she once ridiculously thought her status was enough to threaten Taehyung...

Threaten Kim Taehyung...

This was the biggest joke in the world.

Kyra sat in the hospital bed as she laughed and cried. In the end, she smashed the phone and electronic equipment around her. If she was to find out that her home had been emptied out by Charlene, what other extreme reaction would she have?

At this time, the most surprising thing was, the first person to visit her turned out to be Suho.

Of course, Suho did not come empty-handed. He came with a compromise, "Although Kim Entertainment has never owed you anything, you have indeed been in the agency for many years. The President has decided to let you keep CICI; that is already his biggest compromise."

"Is this out of pity?" Kyra asked Suho angrily.

"What do you think?" Suho replied. "You don't need to think of how pitiful you are, nor should you hate Y/N. Because, sooner or later, someone was bound to replace you in Kim Entertainment. Even if this person wasn't Y/N, it would have been someone else. The worst move you made was to beat Somi."

Kyra was suddenly speechless. She turned her head to look out the window and after quite some time, she finally responded, "Somi isn't as pitiful as I am."

"That's because Somi has a clear conscience." After speaking, Suho gave CICI's information to Kyra, "Don't ever appear in the modeling industry and definitely don't appear in front of the President again."

"This is the President's ultimate warning for you."

"What else can I do?" Kyra laughed at herself as she held onto the information. "Even though I've lost to Y/N, it doesn't mean Y/N will be better off!"

"Whether Y/N will be better off is not up to you to decide. You should care about yourself first." After speaking, Suho turned around to leave. However, as he reached the doorway, he looked back once more, "I've already lured the media away. If you want to leave, you better take advantage of this opportunity."

Kyra looked at Suho and suddenly started laughing, "I know you also like my breasts and bottom, do you want to have your way with me?"

Suho scoffed, "You must be dreaming."

Kyra laughed at herself as she got out of bed, "Suho, I don't want CICI. I just have one request, can you take me home?"

Since they had already known each other for 6 years, even though they didn't cross paths often, there was no reason for him to act ruthless towards her.

Suho measured the situation and nodded, "Go get changed."

Kyra quickly got herself dressed up and left the hospital with Suho's assistance. However, as she returned home, she found her entire home was a mess and everything valuable was gone. Needless to say, it was definitely Charlene.

Only Charlene had the keys to Kyra's apartment.

In this instant, Kyra finally understood how it felt to be left with nothing. So, she fell apart as she knelt on the floor.

Because of his gentlemanly approach, Suho offered her his hand. However, this simple gesture was captured by a paparazzi lurking in a nearby building.

In an instant, a scandal was released online: [Kim Entertainment's Artists Director Has Both Somi and Kyra - Basking In The Joy Of Having Two Women!]

Some headlines were even worse; claiming that Suho acted indecently around artists. They claimed that he offered his hand to a model in despair, only to get bodily contact.

Regardless of the headlines, the photo of Suho helping Kyra was real.

...

At the time that Y/N saw the scandal, she was at Somi's apartment. The photo of Suho helping Somi was enlarged on the TV screen, so she subconsciously looked at Somi.

Somi did not say anything. She simply turned off the TV because it was too noisy.

"Somi, Suho isn't that type of person."

"What does it have to do with me what type of person he is?" Somi asked Y/N confusedly, "Don't tell me you are trying to matchmake us? Let me tell you, it's impossible. Not only will I never be a stepmother, even if I was willing, with Suho's actions today, he will definitely be blacklisted."

"Maybe you've truly misunderstood him."

"No matter the understanding, they were indeed together at that time. The media did not make that part up," Somi rolled her eyes and threw away the remote. "Y/N, not everyone is like President Kim. Before you met President Kim, you also came across a jerk. I've already been hurt once..."

"I can't allow myself to be hurt a second time. I'm not stupid!"

"I was only mentioning it casually, why are you so angered?" Seeing Somi's exaggerated reaction, Y/N felt the more she tried to deny it, the more she had something to hide.

Sometimes, the harder one tries to hide something, the quicker it gets revealed.

Seeing Y/N look at her in distrust, Somi let out a frustrated sigh before saying in a serious tone, "Since our conversation has gotten to this point, I might as well be truthful with you. For a woman like me who has had 3 abortions, been in a relationship with a jerk and has suffered from domestic violence for 10 years, to be honest, no man will want me."

"However, even if I'm well aware of this, it doesn't mean I will settle for anything," Somi said as she looked down at the carpeted floor. "Suho is really good, but he's good to everyone. I know he has no feelings for Kyra, but I don't like men that have the aura of a holy God; it's almost like everyone is waiting for him to save them and to comfort them."

"So, Y/N, I'd rather go look for a French man or a Dutch man so all I have to do is take care of our home."

After hearing Somi's words, Y/N felt her heart ache as she thought about how Somi had an abortion 3 times and had been in a relationship with a jerk.

Was this Somi's fault?

However, Y/N understood that Somi's past would forever haunt her and make her feel self-conscious at all times.

"Fine, let's not talk about Suho anymore. I need to go to France on the 18th, do you want to go there and relax with me?"

"Isn't Manager Kim going with you? If he is, I don't want to go!" Somi immediately refused.

Like this, Somi had given Suho a death sentence in her heart. It was quite a pity. However, for some people, fate could not be forced.

Y/N was deep in thought when Taehyung's phone call dragged her back to reality. In order not to upset Somi, Y/N took her phone and went to the living room.

When she finally returned to the bedroom, Somi looked at her and waved her hand, "Was it President Kim? How long have you been out? I've never seen such a clingy husband!"

"It was work related," Y/N explained.

"Hurry go...I need to get some rest."

Y/N looked at Somi helplessly as she turned and left the apartment.

Taehyung's car was parked outside. As soon as he saw Y/N, he immediately opened the car door.

Somi watched the couples' interaction from the window. It was impossible not to feel envious. When she thought about herself, she wondered where her future would take her.

After holding back for a short moment, Somi pulled out her phone and made a phone call to an old classmate. She called to agree to a blind date because she desperately wanted to be in a true relationship.

...

Kim Entertainment, 3pm.

After completing his work for the day, Chanyeol came across Suho. He couldn't help but grab onto his arm and ask, "What's going on with you and Kyra? What are you going to do about Somi?"

"What do you mean by what I'm going to do about Somi? What does she have to do with me?" Suho asked confusedly.

"If you aren't interested in her, why would you suffer in the cold for 5 hours and catch the flu because of her?"

"You're overthinking the situation," Suho rolled his eyes. "I only did it based on morals."

"So, you are the same with Kyra?"

"Uh huh."

"Why don't you go save the world then?" Chanyeol glared at him. He originally wanted to leave, but as he turned around he suddenly noticed Charlene's presence in the agency, "Why is that woman here?"

Suho followed Chanyeol's gaze and looked at Charlene. Afterwards, he patted Chanyeol on the shoulder, "Go handle your own matters, I'll deal with this small issue."

Chanyeol turned and left while Suho walked towards Charlene. This thief that had emptied out Kyra's apartment actually had the nerve to appear at Kim Entertainment.

However, subconsciously, he started to think about Chanyeol's question earlier and Somi's name.

Was he sticking his nose into too many people's business and getting too carried away with justice?

With this thought, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

As the Artists Director, he was used to handling PR matters for his artists and speaking eloquently in front of the media; he did this because of his professionalism.

His actions never had any deeper meaning.

The only time he acted impulsively was when he stood in front of a government official's home for 5 hours...

Suho did not explain himself to anyone, because he himself did not know, after being single for so many years, why he would suddenly feel moved by the Somi that stuck up for Y/N.

Above all, the Artists Director that never cared about the rumors created by the media, immediately made a move this time after he was rumored to have an indecent relationship with Kyra. He quickly exposed a scandal about an artist from another agency and diverted the media's attention; shutting their mouths up.

...

Upon returning to Kim Entertainment, Charlene felt as unwanted as a sewer rat. She thought she had been quite discreet about returning, but as soon as she stepped through the front door, she was discovered by Suho and Chanyeol. According to the meticulous way these two men handled their work, there was no way they wouldn't suspect Charlene's motives. Especially since Suho knew Charlene had emptied out Kyra's home.

Charlene originally wanted to find a fellow manager who she was relatively close to, but before she entered the man's sight, Suho had already ordered security to tail her.

Charlene noticed this and felt herself erupt with anger. She was, after all, a staff member of Kim Entertainment and had her own pride, yet, here she was being treated like a thief!

Charlene was so angry, she stormed directly over to Suho's office and pointed to him as she yelled, "What is the meaning of this?"

Suho closed up his documents and looked up at Charlene, "I'm afraid something might go missing at Kim Entertainment."

"Suho, don't go too far."

"I'm sure you know better than anyone what happened at Kyra's home," Suho replied in a cold tone.

Charlene was suddenly in a panic as her face lost all color. But, she couldn't conceal her cunning nature, "What should I know? All I know is, Kim Entertainment got someone to beat up Kyra."

Suho lifted his head and glared at Charlene. So, it turned out there was a reason why Kyra turned out the way she did.

But, how did Charlene join the agency in the first place?

She wasn't dumb. When it came to business, she was extremely tricky.

As for what she said, she was obviously blaming Suho for not having any evidence and was showing that she too could go around saying whatever she liked.

"I will send you a contract termination from the lawyers soon."

Charlene's expression changed; she had not yet achieved her motive. However, since this was the decision of Kim Entertainment's higher-ups, no matter how she was to struggle, there was no way she'd be able to change Taehyung's mind. So, she said without reservations, "You will regret it."

Afterwards, Charlene left Suho's office. However, she did not leave Kim Entertainment straight away. Instead, she headed over to one of Kim Entertainment's waiting rooms. As expected, all the makeup artists and artists had the habit of leaving their phones lying around on the dressing tables.

Charlene found the right moment; she pretended to slip and fell onto one of the tables.

"Be careful."

Charlene held onto her waist, pretending to be in pain, as she slipped one of the phones into her pocket.

"Wasn't that Kyra's manager? Is there something wrong with her?"

"Who knows? From the looks of it, she's probably going insane."

No one noticed what Charlene had done. Nor did anyone notice their phone had gone missing. After all, losing a phone in the waiting room was a common occurrence.

But, even though Charlene managed to steal a phone, there was no way she could unlock it. All she could do was take it back to DSP Media and hand it over to Editor Lin, "Inside here, there is definitely a photo of Taehyung and Y/N."

Editor Lin looked at her with a dark expression as he nodded his head, "Are you sure? I'll get my IT guys to unlock it."

"I'm pretty sure. After all, they are an artist of Kim Entertainment's."

"Then, I'll wait to see a good show!"

...

During this time, while other agencies were busy debuting capable newcomers, SM Entertainment had been taken over by someone new. As a result, their main focus had changed and were now investing in creating low budget films. As for Creative Century and YG, after a brief adjustment period, they were once again relaunched. For YG, although Lisa had lost a few important people, they also received an influx of new blood.

Meanwhile, Star King and Kim Entertainment both received a setback. On the other hand, even though Kim Entertainment had dealt with Kyra themselves, Taehyung wasn't affected too much. After all, Y/N was steadily advancing.

During this time, Star King's heir was studying in the US. After hearing about the multiple clashes between the two companies, he immediately returned home to stand guard.

But, no matter what happened; no matter how many newcomers they produced and how they used Y/N to create hype, they couldn't surpass Y/N's tolerance and professionalism. Meanwhile, under Taehyung's protection, Y/N slowly became more mysterious.

She deliberately avoided contact with Taehyung in front of the media, making it harder and harder for them to dig up information. This made the 'couple fans' more and more desperate.

At this time, Star King's heir, Jae-Min, released a pair of twin models into the world. Within a few short days, they were all over the biggest headlines. According to rumors, these two models were trained to suppress Y/N and aimed to become the second Kyra.

No matter if it was in terms of mysteriousness or attractiveness, Jae-Min was a worthy rival for Taehyung. He was young, carefree and more approachable than Taehyung.

His appearance was bound to cause a certain degree of impact on Kim Entertainment.

Late at night, Y/N sat on the bed reading through the day's entertainment news. Amongst the articles was an unprofessional comparison between Taehyung and Jae-Min. After seeing this, Y/N subconsciously started laughing, especially when she saw the part that compared their bodies.

Jae-Min was the type of man that liked exposing his body, but Taehyung never showed off his attractive physique. Others may not have known about his body, but Y/N was well aware. Although she couldn't deny that Jae-Min's body was beyond average, when compared to Taehyung, he was still miles apart.

"What are you laughing about?" After exercising, Taehyung returned to the bedroom covered in sweat. Upon seeing Y/N laughing crazily, he couldn't help but question her.

Y/N lifted her head and looked at Taehyung's perfect body which almost met Western standards. She shook her head.

Taehyung approached her curiously and grabbed the entertainment magazine from her hands. After seeing the comparison article, he handed it back to Y/N, "Tell me, which part of me do you like the most?"

Both men were handsome, rich and capable with great physiques. Most women were attracted to money, but Y/N wasn't like most women. So, Taehyung was curious.

"I like that you are capable," Y/N lowered her head and replied in a soft voice, hinting there was a double meaning.

After hearing this, Taehyung lifted Y/N onto his lap and asked, "In what way? Huh?"

Y/N gasped in surprise as she hooked her arms around his neck, "You scared me. Hurry, go have a shower. You are covered in sweat."

"Answer me first."

"In every way," Y/N's cheeks burned red.

"I want more detail!"

"President Kim, you're normally not this silly..." Y/N's heart raced uncontrollably. How could a woman answer a question like this?

Compared to Taehyung's mysteriousness, Jae-Min accepted interviews more often. Whenever reporters came across him on the street, if he or his female companion was in a good mood, he would act all generous and answer their questions.

For example, at present, he was returning to Seoul with his twin models. As soon as they unboarded the cruise, they ran into the waiting reporters. In this cold weather, he was only wearing a thin pair of board shorts, a set of Kalikali sunglasses and had one girl around each arm. The smile on his face was typical of a young and rich professional.

"President Jae-Min, President Jae-Min, you've received so much attention as soon as you returned to Seoul and have ruled over the news headlines alongside President Kim. What are your thoughts towards this?"

"Do you mind being compared? In what way do you think you are different to President Kim?"

Jae-Min stopped in his track, lowered his sunglasses slightly and peered at everyone. He then laughed, "My thoughts? Honored?"

"As for our differences...I guess we have different sexual preferences," Jae-Min chuckled before wrapping his arm around the twin models and walking away. From this moment onwards, rumors started spreading about the 32-year-old entertainment big boss; the CEO of Kim Entertainment, Taehyung. Everyone started saying he had an interest in men.

From the time Taehyung took over Kim Entertainment, he had always been mysterious and kept a low profile; he had never had any scandals. He'd never had any rumors with women, let alone men.

On the other hand, the 27-year-old Jae-Min had a girlfriend count that was almost equivalent to the number of artists in Star King. So, the Taehyung that still had not had a single girlfriend, appeared extremely weird to the outside world.

Even if he had Y/N, after what Jae-Min said, everyone would assume he was only using her to cover up his secret.

All of a sudden, the rumor of Taehyung being gay started spreading like wildfire. As they were afraid of stirring up trouble with Kim Entertainment, they could only gossip in secret.

"Hey, have you guys heard that the CEO of Kim Entertainment is, you know...? I can't believe it."

"He must be hidden deep inside the closet. Think about it, he's never acted like a typical man and never exposed his body to the public. I've heard that gay men are extremely mindful of people's judgment so they act even more normal than a normal person."

"What would happen to Y/N then?"

"I guess the 'couple fans' will need to die a little inside..."

"I feel this Jae-Min has quite a filthy mouth. Just because he lives a showy life, does that mean others need to be like him to be considered normal? Can't there be low-profile people in the entertainment industry? Who knows, maybe President Kim is already married without us knowing."

"If he's married, why is he acting ambiguous with Y/N?"

Most of the main media sources were too afraid to report on the scandal. Only a few aggressive netizens were brave enough to talk recklessly.

"Y/N, this Jae-Min has quite a filthy mouth! How dare he insult the Boss when his scrawny body does not compare!" Rose yelled in frustration after seeing the news. "It's clear to see, the agency is a direct representation of its boss."

Y/N turned and looked at the tightly shut study room. In reality, no matter how people insulted her, she didn't care. But, this time, they were talking about Taehyung.

Although Kim Entertainment had done PR to contain the situation, the rumor that Taehyung was gay would definitely be used against him in future.

But, if Y/N was to step out and respond, she wouldn't be very convincing because she was on a different level.

"What did the Boss say?"

"He did not respond," Y/N replied. This was a battle between the two agency bosses; observers had no business getting involved.

"So, he will just sit there and let Jae-Min insult him? We should think of a way to teach him a lesson..."

Y/N lowered her head and contemplated for a moment. She stood up from the sofa and headed for the study room. As soon as she saw her husband hard at work, she walked straight over to his side and sat down next to him before helping him sign off his documents.

"What's wrong?"

"I've seen the news online," Y/N said as she leaned into his embrace. "To be honest, I am a bit uncomfortable about it. This Jae-Min wants to devalue you, but I refuse to let him do that."

Taehyung held onto his documents in one hand and stroked Y/N's hair with the other, "You think he can go up against me with his scrawny body?"

"You're not going to respond?"

"I've already called his father and questioned his methods of teaching his child. If he doesn't know how to teach him, then I will have to step in," Taehyung scanned through the documents as he answered Y/N's question.

"You know his father?"

"Although Kim Entertainment and Star King are competitors, the older generation remain friends."

"So, you dobbed him in?" Y/N was a little surprised. Of course, Y/N had no idea Kim Entertainment and Star King still had elders to answer to.

"That's why I received an invite to a banquet," Taehyung put down his documents and looked at Y/N. "On that day, his father and my second uncle will attend; it is a sign of truce."

"Second uncle?" Y/N highlighted these two words, "Do I have to go as well?"

"Are you afraid of meeting my uncle?" Taehyung asked. After confirming that Y/N was indeed a little nervous, he continued gently, "Not many people in the Kim family know I got married. So, you can focus on being my female companion."

"Are you going to let him off with a simple truce?" Y/N never expected things would end so casually.

Taehyung knew Y/N usually kept to herself. Even when she was constantly defamed, she never took it to heart.

On the other hand, he was simply insulted once and it was embedded deep in her heart.

"Since you treasure my reputation so much, how could I bear to treat it casually?" Taehyung responded with a deeper meaning. The look in his eyes was dark and piercing.

Y/N couldn't help but laugh. Since Taehyung was going to make a counterattack, she no longer needed to worry.

"When will the banquet be held?"

"7pm tomorrow night."

"In that case, I'll go pick out a nice dress."

In reality, even though she was only attending as Taehyung's female companion, it still did not hide the fact that she was going to see his second uncle. Y/N did not want to leave a bad impression. So, as soon as Taehyung gave her a time, she immediately headed to the wardrobe and anxiously tried to pick out a dress.

Seeing his arms were empty, Taehyung shook his head as he mumbled to himself, "The woman that's normally not afraid of anything...is just a delicate little woman in the end."

Rose was getting a little bored sitting downstairs, so when she saw Y/N picking out a dress from the wardrobe, she couldn't help but walk over and ask, "What are you doing? Are you attending another event? Or is there another awards ceremony?"

"I'm meeting the elders!" Y/N replied gently, "Rose, I am a little nervous."

Rose could understand because she was aware that Y/N's family was quite complex; she had never been treated well by them. Even when she met with Kai's family in the past, it also wasn't a good experience. So, she never expected to truly get along with family.

So, now that she had to meet with a member of the Kim family, it was reasonable for her to be in a panic.

"You don't need to be nervous..."

"I wouldn't be talking. I wonder who was so scared that they hung up the phone on Chanyeol."

"Are you comparing yourself to me? All you need to do is be yourself. Everything else, leave it to Boss!" Rose rolled her eyes. "Y/N, bring out the confidence you show on the runway. Just treat this as another show."

The phone from Charlene that had been sent to get unlocked was finally returned to Editor Lin in the evening.

Editor Lin was spinning nervously in his office chair. In the end, he opened the phone gallery and looked at the photos inside.

Most of the photos were from the battle between Y/N and Kyra on the night of the celebration dinner.

Editor Lin looked at the photos and noticed the comparison between Y/N and Kyra. Inside, he was actually more convinced by Y/N. After all, it was rare to see a model that suited everything she wore.

But, he still disliked the fact that Y/N played around with men while acting innocent...

Thinking of this, Editor Lin continued to scroll down. To his pleasant surprise, he actually came across some relatively intimate photos of Y/N and Taehyung. Especially those that showed Y/N clinging to Taehyung's arm when she was drunk and Taehyung carrying Y/N on his back at the celebration dinner.

"She sure has good methods," Editor Lin sneered.

Today was the day that news was spreading rapidly about Taehyung being gay. If these photos were to be released today, the rumors would collapse on itself. After all, they appeared so intimate in the photos. If someone was to say that they weren't a couple, no one would believe it. But, for now, he wasn't going to reveal it.

Finally, he retrieved some evidence...

Y/N, the day of your destruction isn't far.

...

7pm, Caesar Hotel.

Somi had agreed to a blind date. To show her determination to get rid of her past, she appeared at the hotel well-dressed. Her look did not disappoint in comparison to when she appeared at awards ceremonies.

After arriving at the VIP booth, Somi saw the other party had already arrived. Somi looked down at her watch; this French man was quite diligent with time.

Over the years that she spent in the industry, she had become well-versed in multiple languages. So, communication between the two wasn't a problem. Seeing the man was such a gentleman, Somi couldn't bear to let him waste his time, so she straightforwardly explained her background and past to him.

The man listened intently. Every now and then he would react with a gasp, but never did he look down on her. Somi finally felt relieved.

This French man was named Brott. He was the Asian regional President of a jewellery company. He was gentlemanly and successful, but was yet to get married.

Somi was impressed with the man's performance and was pleased with his appearance.

The two continued to chat in the hotel for 3-4 hours before Brott escorted Somi home like a gentleman.

Somi felt they were quite comfortable together and immediately gave Y/N a phone call to report everything that happened on the date.

"He didn't care about my past at all and we had no problems communicating. I feel we were quite comfortable together. I was really happy with it."

"Only comfortable?" for some reason, Y/N felt there was something wrong with Somi's reaction.

Comfortable...

Two people couldn't spend a lifetime together based purely on comfort - because all love was built on mutual adoration. Could it be that Somi hadn't met many men like this and was feeling a little inferior? In other words, did she think of herself as a pair of broken shoes? Did she have no courage to face her own people so she decided to marry a foreigner and migrate?

"We will get to know each other better in time," Somi replied cheerily. "I have a feeling Brott will turn out to be an amazing man."

So, Suho isn't? Y/N thought.

"Regardless of everything, I have already decided that we get along well enough. I will aim to get married mid-year next year and then have a child by the end of next year," Somi already planned out her future. Did she really not consider Suho at all?

"Fine then. Give it a try. If things don't work out, get out of there as soon as possible!"

"OK. By the way, what's up with Jae-Min? Is he defaming President Kim?"

"Did you think President Kim would just sit around and let him defame him?" Y/N replied nonchalantly. Only in front of Somi could she act casually. "Don't worry about us, just worry about yourself. Don't make a stupid mistake again."

Somi nodded her head seriously. But after she hung up the phone, she leaned against the wall and slowly lowered her body.

She couldn't figure out why she still felt lonely.

In order to welcome her rebirth, Somi requested to jump back into work. So, the next day, she returned to the agency with her manager and met with Suho; picking up the work she had left off.

At this time, Brott specifically rang her and invited her to lunch. As Somi felt the timing was right, she instructed him to wait for her in the parking lot.

When facing Suho, Somi acted like usual; there was only business between them, so they quickly came to an agreement. After they were done, Suho stood up from his seat, ready to leave, "Where are you going? Let me drive you."

"No need, someone is coming to pick me up," Somi replied politely.

The two headed for the underground parking lot together and got out on the same level. As Suho went to open his car door, he spotted Somi boarding the car of a foreigner.

Suho froze before realizing who the man was.

"Brott?"

Without a second thought, Suho rushed over to the car and pulled Somi out.

"Suho? What are you doing?"

Suho dragged her to his car and forced her to sit, ignoring Brott's yelling as he left with Somi.

"Give me an explanation," Somi slightly turned her body and spoke with a cold tone.

Suho had a dark expression. After driving the car to a quiet spot, he calmed himself down and finally asked, "How do you know Brott?"

Somi was also surprised that Suho knew Brott. Her curiosity suddenly overtook her anger as she replied, "An old classmate introduced us..."

"Do you have a brain? Your friend deliberately tricked you. Somi, you aren't a child anymore, can you be a bit more cluey? Do you know how famous Brott is in the Gay social circles?" Suho asked in disappointment. Somi was speechless.

"When can you start having a better eye for men?"

"At least I'm not like you. I don't go around helping one person and supporting another," Somi was so angered she subconsciously blurted her innermost thoughts.

Suho froze...

Somi realized she had said something she shouldn't. She quickly shut her mouth and looked out the window.

In the end, Suho gave up first and restarted the car, "Let me take you home."

"I just want to find someone that doesn't look down on me..." Somi's eyes began to redden. "So what if I'm an international supermodel? In other people's eyes, I am merely a pair of worn out broken shoes."

"The human body isn't as important as you think, just because you think of yourself as a pair of broken shoes, doesn't mean everyone else does."

"Then if you were me, would you want you?" Somi turned around and asked emotionally. After asking, she felt she had been too impulsive.

Sometimes, when faced with love, she would lose all common sense. No matter how many times she got taught a lesson, she would not learn from her mistakes.
