Because Rosé was to take over Y/N, her, Seulgi and Jungkook were in the meeting room early in the morning discussing the upcoming plans they had. Y/N wasn't invited to the meeting, the excuse was that it was only a pitch. However, Seulgi was clear about Rosé's true intentions - Jeon Rosé merely treated Y/N as a chess piece. No matter how high Y/N's status was, she was still going to maintain her power to control her artist.

Seulgi projected Y/N's job offers onto the projector screen - there were 23 of them! Seeing this, Jungkook was shocked. Amongst the offers, there was no lack of 2nd-tier magazines. He never expected the public had such a high degree of acknowledgment for Y/N.

Of course, Seulgi did not reveal the offers Y/N was currently considering. These included the offers from...Creative Century and Star Age; two big superstar factories who had thrown her an expensive offer.

With Y/N's current status, a small studio like GC, could no longer be of much help to her. Plus, the contract that hung to Rosé's lips could no longer bind Y/N.

It seemed Rosé had already forgotten the battle with Secret and still believed Y/N's success was due to luck.

"At present, because of the Oriental Trend, Y/N is extremely popular; she has gained quite a bit of fame in the European and American markets. As long as we take advantage of the current situation, with my contacts, we can speedily get her onto multiple stages. However, she needs to be obedient towards me...otherwise, I can also destroy her..."

It appeared, tonight's celebration dinner for Y/N, was more like an announcement dinner for Rosé taking on her new role.

A manager that had been blacklisted by the Americans - with a blink of an eye - returned to Seoul to continue to wreak havoc on the world.

Meanwhile, Y/N already found out about the morning's meeting from Seulgi; Rosé had planned out her career path overseas. Of course, that would be ideal for most models, after all, this path had the most potential, but...Y/N was no longer 17 years old. Without enough background support, she couldn't be like a young model and start from the beginning as a fit model. It's not that she was afraid it would be too difficult, but she didn't have much youth left. The next 3 years for her, was critical!

"Y/N, what do you plan to do now? Rosé isn't going to give up on you."

"I...have my plans...Seulgi, thank you," Y/N thanked her sincerely.

"Y/N, this is actually a good opportunity for me to leave you. I know your manager will only get better and better...I am not good enough to stay by your side. You've taught me so much and made me understand a lot of things. Don't worry, we have a confidentiality agreement between us, I will not reveal your business to others. I just hope, in the end, GC can let me go." Seulgi was determined; if she continued to work for Y/N, she would only continue to be led by her and not have the opportunity to show off her managerial skills. She was impressed by Y/N but she also had her own goals.

"As you wish," Y/N nodded.

"Are we still friends?"

"Of course..." Y.N replied calmly.

"My photos...I'll leave them with you; it can serve as a warning for me. Y/N, I will keep an eye on you; I'll watch as you leap onto the international stage."

"Seulgi, I also wish all the best for you."

Seulgi understood she had already completed her mission and it was time for her to retreat. According to Y/N's personality, she never held back on her enemies. At the same time, she never made things difficult for her friends. So, of course, she preferred to be her friend.

****

Not long after, Seoul's night sky was densely dotted with stars. At the same time, Y/N was well prepared for a battle with Rosé.
