Fifty Shades of Park

Chapter 53

Royalty's show was scheduled for 8pm, but Y/N arrived backstage at 5pm. Although the show was not an international one, Royalty was almost on the same level as some of the top companies in South Korea. Originally, Y/N did not expect Jennie to give her such a great present. But after careful thought, she understood, Jennie was after all a business person; everything she did was from a profit viewpoint.

Tonight there were to be 15 models attending the show. Y/N was the oldest amongst them...

26-years-old; amongst the average person, that was still the prime of one's youth, but in the modeling industry, it was different. In a few years, she wouldn't have the chance to attend even an event like this.

Royalty was held in high esteem, so the models invited for the show all had a great backing. According to Y/N's current status, although she wasn't low, amongst the 15 models, she did not stand out at all.

So, the fact that she was to open the show, made the show director extremely suspicious.

It seemed, every time Y/N worked with someone, she would be met with distrust. Especially since, amongst the models tonight, there were models that had won awards.

"Y/N, if you have stage fright or feel unwell, let me know immediately. I will arrange for someone to replace you straight away," the show director said to Y/N as she applied her makeup. If it wasn't because he had a good relationship with Jennie, he wouldn't even consider Y/N. Although she was quite popular recently...there were plenty of models that were better than her.

"Er...Show director, Y/N's already been in the industry for 8-9 years, she definitely will not have stage fright, you can be rest assured," Mina reminded the man as she smiled.

"I'm afraid you're not confident!"

Hearing his words, Y/N lifted her head. This action was undoubtedly full of confidence.

The show director stopped talking and waited to see Y/Ns performance. This cold woman is already at this age, how can Jennie be interested in her?

The other models looked at her like they were waiting to watch a joke unfold. Some even whispered amongst themselves, "It wasn't easy for us to go through auditions to get here. Who would have thought, someone with a strong backing would be different; directly landing the show's opening. I heard even the A-Grade model, Tzuyu got here via auditions. Who does Y/N think she is?"

"If you think it's unfair then use your background to fight with hers..."

"She's already so old; she should be at home raising kids, why is she here doing shows? Isn't she afraid of straining her back?"

Hearing the discussions get louder and louder, Mina turned around and glared at them. However, she was merely an assistant.

Y/N tugged at her arm, reminding her to control her emotions, "Don't stoop yourself to their level or else you'll be just like them. After all, what they are saying is true. Even if you refute against them, it's just words...they won't admit defeat."

Mina scoffed and didn't say anything. At this time, Jisoo entered backstage with a group of young girls. Upon seeing Y/N, she was quite surprised; unaware that this was all part of Jennie's plan.

Jisoo and Y/N's eyes met. Complex emotions were exchanged between the two, but Jisoo remained silent. She simply led the girls over to the show director and introduced him to them. As the show director had a decent relationship with Jennie, as soon as he heard Jisoo had brought some girls to watch and learn, he allowed them to wander freely as long as they didn't distract the models from getting changed.
