"Who do you want as your manager?" Lisa asked her back.

Jennie shook her head; she had complete trust in Manoban Entertainment. With her current status, one couldn't say she didn't qualify to go to Manoban Entertainment, but within the agency, she definitely didn't rank highly.

Lisa smiled secretively without giving her an answer. He simply led Jennie into the bedroom and helped her into bed, "Right now, don't think about anything. Get some rest, adjust to the time difference and wait for me to come home from work...Since you were scheduled to return tomorrow, why don't you treat today as a day off."

Jennie lay in bed holding onto Lisa's hand, "I'm fine. Don't worry about me."

Jennie had gotten used to being in the eye of the storm; as long as she continued to move forward, she would not feel defeated.

"I will tell Jisoo to instruct Rosé to send YG a contract termination letter."

"OK," Jennie nodded gently. However, just as Lisa turned around to leave, Jennie grabbed onto his hand, "I want to see Yuna."

"I knew you would worry about her, so I've already made arrangements. After you've had your rest, Jisoo will take you to see her." After speaking, Lisa leaned over and placed a kiss on Jennie's forehead.

Jennie felt at ease as she slowly closed her eyes; her eyelashes fluttered a few times before she finally fell into a state of slumber.

Although she was extremely tired, Jennie knew it was a result of work rather than the scandal YG exposed. Gone were the days when she would be filled with self-pity as she mourned over the comments online. She was reminded of the words of a famous personality, "When the supposed netizens leave comments to ridicule you but are too afraid to reveal their true identities, their words should not hold any value."

"You should not be angered or upset by their irresponsible words."

"At times like this, you need to conserve your energy and strike back in the most appropriate way."

After seeing Jennie fall asleep, Lisa finally felt at ease as he left the villa. However, on the way to Manoban Entertainment, Jisoo couldn't help but ask, "Should we deal with madam's issue as per usual procedures?"

Lisa looked down at the documents in his hands and replied in a deep and charming voice, "This is the order I want you to handle things: contact our lawyers and get them to send YG a contract termination letter on behalf of Jennie."

"After YG announces their contract has been terminated, get our Artists Director to announce that Jennie is officially joining Manoban Entertainment."

"You want to make the announcement first? Don't you want to solve the issue at hand first?"

"The announcement is a part of the solution. Afterwards, Manoban Entertainment will hold a press conference to clarify the incident with Kim Yuna. Most importantly, I want you to identify 10 of the most active anti-fans and document all their messages, I will use them at the press conference."

"I want them to realize, by talking rubbish...they will need to face unimaginable consequences."

After hearing Lisa's words, Jisoo suddenly felt excited; Ian would have never expected, after all the energy he had exerted to scheme against Jennie, he would end up helping Jennie move up another level.

"So, madam's manager will be...?"

After a moment of silence, Lisa suddenly responded with one simple word, "Me."

Jisoo froze for a moment; he was surprised and slightly shocked.

"However, we don't need to announce it yet and don't tell Jennie..."

Jisoo chuckled as he swiftly nodded his head. It seemed, signing with Manoban Entertainment and getting Lisa to be her manager was something only Jennie could do.

He was suddenly looking forward to the day everything would be announced...

Did Ian really think he made a critical attack on Jennie?

How pitiful...

...

After Yuna woke up from her surgery, the first thing she asked was how Jennie was doing.

Arin took one look at her and was too afraid to tell her about the mess that was happening on the outside as she tried to swerve around the topic. However, Yuna wasn't that gullible. With one look, she could tell Arin was trying to hide something. So, she forcefully sat up and demanded for her phone.

"Yuna, you already have enough on your plate, can't you get some rest? You've said it yourself, Jennie has someone to protect her."

However, Arin had no way of rejecting Yuna's pleading eyes. So, she ended up handing the phone over to her.

After going online and seeing the words 'Jennie murder' sitting at the top of search rankings, she began to panic as she tried to get up, "I am alive and well, how could these people talk such rubbish?"

Arin quickly tried to stop her, "Look at yourself, where can you go? Lie back down...if you are worried about Jennie, you will get to see her very soon."

Meanwhile, while the two were talking, Jennie and Yuna's doctor walked into the room. As the doctor held onto Yuna's medical history, he explained to Jennie, "Right now, she is still in the mid-term of her kidney failure. If she is lucky, she will still have time and chance to locate a donor. However, she can't catch a cold and misbehave again. President Manoban has already arranged to find a suitable donor and we are currently searching through international sources, I'm sure we will get a response very soon. There's no need to worry, Miss Kim."

"Thank you, doctor."

After speaking politely, the doctor left the room. At this time, Jennie finally turned to look at Yuna helplessly, "You should not have to take responsibility for your brother's wrongdoings. You haven't contacted me in all this time; I had no idea your condition had gotten to this point."

Yuna's heart ached as she looked away, "I'm...fine..."

"You always try to act strong, just like me," Jennie sighed as she walked to Yuna's bedside and sat down.

Yuna analyzed her calm expression and asked, "Are you upset by the rumors that are going around? If I go out to clarify everything, it will be better..."

"The situation isn't as complicated as you think it is, but...it can't be simply solved by you stepping out to say a few words," Jennie stopped her as she assured, "I have my own plans. Plus, don't you already know, I married an extraordinary man. There is no way he will allow me to get hurt."

Yuna realized Jennie wasn't simply trying to comfort her, so she eased up, "If you need me, just let me know."

"Her husband is so capable, as if she would need you. Hurry and get some rest," Arin couldn't stand it anymore as she roughly growled at Yuna. Afterwards, she turned to Jennie and apologized, feeling slightly guilty towards her.

"This incident was all my fault...if it wasn't for me, Ian the jerk, wouldn't have found out about the promise between you and Yuna."

"You can't beat his mind games, there's no need to blame yourself."

"There's one thing I don't understand though: what's wrong with the fans in your fan club? I would be better at being a club president than any of them," Arin exclaimed angrily.

"Me too," Yuna joined in. "I've seen all of your fashion shows and bought all your magazines. I can guarantee that I know you better than any of them."

"Then, let's wait until you are better. You can be the club president of my fan club," Jennie couldn't help but laugh.
