Trial Marriage

Chapter 41

The thought of signing Jiwoo under her own company still lingered, however, Karina also understood, Jiwoo did not like to take shortcuts - she liked taking things one step at a time.

If Karina were to give her a place in Yu Ent, she would only feel that her position did not come from her own hard work and would feel uneasy. Rather than doing that, it was better for her to keep Jiwoo company while she grew. Like this, their relationship would also become stronger.

Her peaceful and sharp gaze turned away from the TV as she gave a gentle cough. Seeing this, Ningning quickly questioned her, "Was it because you've been busy all night that you are now feeling sick?"

Karina gently touched her own forehead. Her perfectly sculpted face did indeed appear tired under the lights. However, she still instructed Ningning, "Don't tell Jiwoo."

"President, you have seriously exceeded your workload," Ningning reminded Karina as she adjusted the black-framed glasses on her nose.

"Cancel the meeting tonight," Karina replied simply before ending the conversation. Ningning nodded and left the office. She had already pulled out her phone, but thinking about Karina's instructions, she could only sigh.

This empress never allowed anyone to see her weak side; she even hid it from the person closest to her.

After Jiwoo released her statement about suing Tianyi, Tianyi did not respond for quite some time; the person that had taken over from Minkyu had no experience dealing with urgent matters.

No longer owing each other, how was that so?

According to evidence presented by fans, Tianyi had used Jiwoo multiple times to achieve their own goals.

From the Crown's Star substitute incident to now, all the suffering Jiwoo had gone through was hard for anyone to endure. Yet, she was forgiving enough to tell Tianyi they no longer owed each other.

Under her current circumstance of constantly being insulted and finding it hard to even fend for herself, she was able to let go of Tianyi so freely; this was clear proof that her character was nothing like the negative rumors. Hence, the shows that had previously paused their jobs with Jiwoo got in contact with her again and apologized.

Meanwhile, a famous radio station invited Jiwoo to be their special guest.

Everything was going well. Although there were still opposing opinions here and there, compared to all the scolding from the previous days, everything Winter looked at was a lot more pleasant. She realized Jiwoo had already stepped out of the storm and clear skies were ahead.

7pm. Jiwoo left home to make her way to the radio station for a quick meeting. However, when she rang Karina, Ningning answered instead; she said Karina was currently in a meeting, but Jiwoo could hear a muffled cough coming from the other side of the phone.

The voice was not obvious but sounded dry and hoarse. And, although Ningning quickly hung up the phone, Jiwoo could sense something was wrong.

"Winter, turn the car around, let's go to Yu Ent," Jiwoo suddenly instructed.

"But... we've organized to go to the radio station at 8pm, if we go to Yu Ent, we will not be able to make it," Winter had a look at the time; she didn't understand Jiwoo's intention.

"Just go to Yu Ent first," Jiwoo repeated herself.

Winter was dumbfounded for a moment before obediently turning the car around, "How about I go to the radio station first to hold onto them while you drive over by yourself?"

"Jiwoo, you've only just recovered a bit of popularity and the radio station today is not one you can afford to offend. At this time, you can't have news about you being arrogant."
