Trial Marriage Husband (Pangyo Couple version)

Chapter 103: Bite Back

Although they were mere once lovers, he couldn't deny that they had been together for 5 years. So regardless of their separation, he had no reason to hurt his ex. Bohyun stared at the magazine in front of him. For a moment he felt he is about to give up on an international superstar. He reached out his hand and flipped the magazine over, afraid that he would feel regret.

Seeing this, Hyomin let out a sigh of relief. She crossed her arms across her chest. "Since it's decided, I'll let you in on a little secret. I've already contacted the reporter that's been following Jang Geunseuk around. He has agreed to release news that he has photos of Cha Jooeun and Jang Geunseuk in bed. I've even found photos with similarities. Since you've decided to disobey President Seo's orders, then we can only push Cha Jooeun further down so the president won't punish you."

Bohyun stared at the computer monitor in front of him as he moved the mouse. His voice is cold and filled with ridicule. "There is no 'we', it's just you. This will be the last time you use our past to get what you want. I will prevent Cha Jooeun this once, but what happens in the future is not up to me and whatever you plan to do has nothing to do with me."

"You..."

"Our objectives are different, so we can never get along. If you're done I need to get back to work."

Bohyun had already suggested he didn't want her around, so Park Hyomin had no choice but to leave. In reality, she still had feelings for Bohyun, but the two of them were ambiguous in too many ways. Hyomin is the type of person with no bottom line, she would do anything to achieve her goals. However, Bohyun is disgusted by her methods. So in the past two years, the relationship between the two was like fire and water.

After leaving Bohyun's office, Hyomin immediately phoned the reporter. "I can't wait anymore. Release the news."

"OK, sit back and enjoy the show." The man on the other side of the phone is filled with excitement.

If everything Park Hyomin had previously done to defame Cha Jooeun was because she had stolen her model's runway show in France, then this time, it's because she needed to take precautionary action. With her qualifications and professionalism, if Cha Jooeun is to join Sublime, she would snatch away a lot of jobs. If that happens, the models under Hyomin's control would lose at least half their opportunities, she couldn't allow this to happen. Above all, it's possible that Cha Jooeun already knew Hyomin is the one that had been secretly scheming against her.

Because of 1stLook's rapid sales, Jooeun's fans felt like she had once again given them a pleasant surprise. A whole heap of presents was delivered to Jooeun via her Official Fan Club. Taejoo received them and made sure they were safe before handing them to her.

Late at night, Jooeun was napping atop Jeonghwan's chest. Jeonghwan had his right arm around Jooeun as he gently ran his fingers down the curves of her back. His left hand was currently browsing through Jooeun's emails on his phone. At this moment he discovered a suspicious email. "Joo...look at this."

"Huh?" Jooeun lifted her head gently and took the phone from Jeonghwan's hand. There's an anonymous email that simply read, "Take note of people scheming behind your back."

"Hwan, what are your thoughts?" Seeing this unusual warning, Jooeun couldn't imagine who's trying to help her and what type of scheming they would be referring to.

"With the popularity of 1stLook, more people have started to pay attention to you; you are bound to snatch someone else's opportunities. If we think back about the recent defamation incident, the person that did the most scheming was Park Hyomin from Sublime. Regardless of whether this warning is related to her, you must first focus on doing your best."

Jooeun understood what Jeonghwan meant. As long as she did everything to the best of her ability, no one would be able to find any flaw to defame her with. Jeonghwan is reminding her, it's time to release the evidence from the bed-climbing incident.

"Regardless of who this warning is from or who is scheming against me, I must first bite back at the person that is behind the entire bed-climbing scandal, Park Hyomin." Jooeun put down the phone and placed her chin on Jeonghwan's collarbone.

"It seems you've already figured what to do with Jang Geunseuk's travel report." Jooeun smiled without responding. She had definitely made enemies with Park Hyomin, but it is yet to be determined whose methods were better.

Thinking of this, Jooeun immediately made a phone call to Minjung. "Unnie, are you sleeping yet?"

"I'm watching a movie." Minjung jumped up from her bed thinking something must have happened to Jooeun.

"It's nothing serious. Unnie, if you have time, I was wondering whether the reporter that was spreading fake rumors about me had a partner."

"Do you have something planned?" Minjung thought for a moment, before responding. "Yes he did, he also had a cousin who is his copywriter."

"Good." Jooeun replied calmly. "I just received an email warning me to be careful of people scheming behind my back. Unnie, to give me peace of mind, do you have a way of contacting his partner?"

"Haha, I have a business card, I'll get back to you." Minjung hung up and Jooeun put down her phone.

Meanwhile, Jeonghwan continued to stroke her back. Although his actions are casual, Jooeun couldn't help but gently touch his lips. She leaned in and said gently. "That's enough, you're making me want it."

Jeonghwan's eyes widened as the corners of his lips revealed an amused smile. "Are you that sensitive?"

Jooeun ignored him as she gently stroked the inside of his thigh. "If I touch you like this, would you be able to control yourself?"

Jeonghwan suddenly flipped over and pressed Jooeun against his body. His gentle intermittent kisses made their way across her body. As his gaze fell upon her tiny waist, he screwed up his eyebrows. "Are you still trying to lose weight?"

"If I want to make it on a bigger stage, I can't lose to the younger models."

"In my heart, no matter how you look, you are perfect."

Jooeun smiled. Her lover's encouragement made her extremely happy. She grabbed onto Jeonghwan's neck and gave him a soft delicate kiss on the lips before sensually nibbling on his earlobe.

Just as Minjung tried to get in contact with the reporter's cousin, the man was about to release Jooeun's newest scandal. Minjung's call had intercepted him just in time. He thought Jooeun must have made a decision to buy the evidence of him. So when Minjung asked to meet, he did not refuse. However, he decided not to tell his cousin about this. Park Hyomin had given them so much money to defame Jooeun, yet he only got a 30% cut. Since Jooeun had contacted him directly, then he's going to take advantage of this opportunity to make some money from her. So before he released the scandal, he deliberately deleted some information and said he still needed some time to edit the article; he wouldn't be able to release it today.

The reporter couldn't do anything about it, he completely trusted his cousin. He quickly made a phone call to tell Park Hyomin and she's immediately on guard as she asked. "Don't tell me there's been a change..."

"No, no, of course not..."
