Trial Marriage Husband (Pangyo Couple version)

Chapter 55: Taking Over Cha Jooeun?

After hearing this, Ryeowon's mind went blank, before it exploded.

"President Bang, let me explain..."

"What is there to explain? You used the resources provided by the company to help your brother, did you think we wouldn't find out? Vanity Fair is originally one of our resources. If one of our own models appeared on the front cover of this issue, the Oriental Trend would have been under our own control. But what did you do instead? Ryeowon, prepare the compensation for breaching your contract." After speaking, he hung up the phone, not allowing Ryeowon the chance to redeem herself.

Ryeowon is dumbfounded as she dropped her arms. Her mouth continuously mumbled similar words. "It's over. Everything is over. My career is also over."

"Noona, what happened?"

"It's all because of you!" Ryeowon screams with all her might. "Because of you, I am now fired. On top of that, I have to pay 10 million dollars for breaching my contract. 10 million US DOLLARS!"

Yonghwa and Shinhye were stunned. They never expected the consequences would be so dire.

"Not only that, but I will also be blacklisted. Do you know what that means? It means I can no longer make a living here. All the effort I have put in over the years has all been wasted." After Ryeowon screaming, she dropped to the floor bitterly. At this moment, she's filled with regret and hate. Why did she help this useless brother? Why did she help Shinhye go against Jooeun?

"Noona, you haven't lost everything, you still have me."

"Go away! You only have Shinhye in your eyes." Ryeowon pushed Yonghwa away.

"Noona I will help you."

"Fine. If you want to help me, then help me pay off half of the compensation for breaching my contract. Also, I want to become Jooeun's manager. If you guys won't support her, then I will. I am going to use Jooeun to help me make a comeback." Ryeowon snapped. "Do you have the courage to agree to this?"

Yonghwa and Shinhye glanced at each other. This is absolute nonsense. Not only would he not allow his sister to help an enemy, even if they are to agree, there's no way Jooeun would allow it. However, on the surface, he still had to find a way to brush her off, so he used Jooeun as an excuse.

"I can help you with your compensation by selling some shares, we will get over this together. However, if you think about how we previously treated Jooeun, there is no way she would let you become her manager. Plus, she already has Hyewon."

"How does Hyewon compared to me? Since CN can no longer control Jooeun's progress, then why don't we personally help her to the top? At least that way we can boost our own reputation. Most importantly, I can keep an eye on Jooeun. This is like killing THREE birds with one stone!" Ryeowon is dreaming about controlling Jooeun. She is full of hate and an unwillingness to accept defeat. She wanted to see, if she is to become Jooeun's manager, could she still do as she liked?

Listening to Ryeowon's reasoning, Yonghwa started to reconsider. Even if they couldn't suppress Jooeun, at least Ryeowon would be able to stop her from causing trouble. If he is to agree to this, he and Shinhye would be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Noona, I'll agree to it."

"You guys return to Korea first. After I've sorted everything out here, I will come back and take over Jooeun."

Taking over Jooeun? Let's see if Jeonghwan would allow that!

"OK." Yonghwa replied.

Shinhye isn't happy with this decision. She couldn't believe they're going to personally make Jooeun famous. However, this incident with Vanity Fair Magazine is indeed her fault for implicating Yonghwa and Ryeowon. So, at this point, there's nothing she could say. All she could do is look at Yonghwa with a sulky expression. "Don't you want me anymore?"

"What are you talking about? You saw it too, there is no way we can suppress Jooeun. Let's leave it to my sister to handle her. That way, we can have some time to relax. Shinhye, I won't give up on you."

Shinhye thought. As long as she still Yonghwa in her grasp, she would still eventually become the first lady of CN. If this is to happen, she would have a chance for a comeback. As for Jooeun spreading her wings, they still had plenty of time.

On the same day that afternoon, BIGHIT released an announcement about canceling their contract with Jung Ryeowon. During their announcement, they pointed out three major mistakes she made and claimed they would chase her for compensation. They also announced they would be blacklisting her. Of course, she's only a manager. Even if she is to break ties with her company, it wouldn't cause much commotion. However, upon seeing this news, Jooeun is surprised. Her gaze unconsciously turned towards Jeonghwan.

This man...he really couldn't help himself.

IPKN's photoshoot is nearing and as it is to be located in Seoul, Jooeun had to immediately return to Korea. This time, Jooeun finally didn't have to catch the same flight as Yonghwa and Shinhye. Also because of her fame in the US, her fans no longer had to hold back their cheers. Her fan club even organized an event for all the fans to welcome her at the airport. So early in the morning, the airport is completely packed.

"Jooeun, did you know Yonghwa and Shinhye are also flying today?" Hyewon asked while they're on the way to the airport.

"Yeah, I know. So you should know what to do right?" Jooeun is reading the newspaper while holding onto Jeonghwan's hand. Previously, when she flew to Jeju, Shinhye had revealed her schedule online and got anti-fans to cause her trouble. This time, Shinhye is returning defeated and had become a joke in the industry. She definitely needed to pay her back. How could she be considered a joke until she experiences being surrounded by anti-fans?

"Jooeun, you still haven't used the information about Shinhye being pregnant. What do you plan to do?" Minjung suddenly asked.

"SHINHYE's pregnant?" Hyewon thought.

"All along she's been aiming for the Top Ten Model Awards. But don't forget about the selection criteria. Pregnant women aren't qualified to receive an award." Jooeun replied calmly.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's just release it."

"According to Shinhye's personality, she will definitely use whatever means to qualify. I'm going to wait until she appears on stage to receive the award. At that time, I'll send her to her grave."

After hearing what Jooeun said, Minjung understood. To receive something and immediately lose it, is the true experience of pain. Above all, until the day Shinhye receives an award, CN would still feel like she has hope. So by making her receive it and then lose it, is the only way to guarantee she wouldn't be able to make a comeback – the Top Ten Model Awards only give each model one chance.

Jeonghwan held onto Jooeun's hand tightly the entire time because he knew, even though Jooeun had made Shinhye into her backdrop, it still would not be enough to satiate the pain she had previously received. She would continuously pick away at Shinhye until the day came when she no longer had the strength to revive herself and Yonghwa completely gave up on her. She wanted Shinhye to experience being thrown away.

Jeonghwan didn't want to see Jooeun so depressed, so he pulled out his phone and looked for the photos he took the night before. He then handed his phone to Hyewon. "Place this photo online." It's a photo of Shinhye kneeling on the ground.

A photo of Park Shinhye at her lowest point. Hyewon looked at the scheming couple as she and Minjung both gave a sly smile.
