Lee Young-Min knew how stubborn Seohyun was...

As long as she decided something, it was impossible to change her mind.

But, that night, while Seohyun slept inside her hospital room and Lee Young-Min slept outside, Seoul Korea was flipped upside down.

Firstly, a video of Wendy being attacked and calling for help was posted online. Following on, news about Lee Young-Min speeding and being caught by the police was released and circulated. However, everyone understood Lee Young-Min's actions.

After all, Wendy's manager was Seohyun and Seohyun was Lee Young-Min's sister.

The incident wasn't hard to piece together: Wendy and Seohyun had been attacked, Wendy escaped to call for help, Seohyun was injured and, as a result, Lee Young-Min was caught for speeding.

But, who was behind the attack? And what was their motive? These questions were cause for heated discussions.

So, early the next morning, Superstar Media made an announcement that they'd be cooperating with the police to find the truth and vowed to give their artist an explanation.

Superstar Media claimed that the entire incident was related to the Journey Singing Competition and revealed that Wendy was fine, while her manager suffered a serious injury.

In order to win the competition, someone actually tried to attack another contestant. This matter caused a huge impact on everyone and forced Tiffany to respond strongly.

"Whether it's the people that executed the crime or the instigator, Superstar Media will not let any of them off."

Actually, it wasn't difficult to investigate the incident in detail. Whenever something dirty happened in the industry, all one had to do was trace the clues and the truth would easily be uncovered.

After Seohyun was admitted to the hospital, Tiffany sat quietly at Superstar Media and waited patiently for Wendy to compete in the 32 to 16 elimination round. At the same time, the police began to investigate the incident. Tiffany was going to see how the culprit planned to hold on.

Tiffany wanted to tell everyone in the industry that not only the artists in Crown Empire were untouchable, her artists also could not be offended.

"Sunny, contact Chanyeol and ask him to prepare a contract for Wendy."

Originally, Tiffany wanted to wait until Wendy won the competition before admitting her to Crown Empire. But, she now felt the need to show everyone the relationship between Superstar Media and Crown Empire.

"Are you planning to send her over there now?" Sunny asked with some concern.

"She was ready a long time ago," Tiffany replied.

A little while later, Tiffany received an anonymous phone call. The person on the other side requested to see her, but she quickly rejected them, "I have no reason to meet with violent people. You may want to see me, but I'm not going to put my safety at risk. It's best that you be honest with me, I hate people that have no sincerity."

The other party snorted and chuckled, "Tiffany, you sure are arrogant."

"I have the right to be arrogant. At least I'm not so stupid as to try and kidnap a person; especially not in the downtown area of the city."

"Fine. Give me your conditions. It was just a small joke, there's no need to blow it up."

"Conditions?" Tiffany sneered. "I can have whatever I want, do you think I'd want something from you? It's simple, there's only one thing you can do, get your contestant to withdraw from the competition. Otherwise, when the police find the truth, you will end up withdrawing anyway and it won't look good."

"If you want to get revenge, then direct it towards me. My daughter does not know about this incident."

"You're right. I am indeed seeking revenge on you, and you're weakness happens to be your daughter. I want you to understand that you need to face the consequences of your actions. If you dare to touch one of my people, you will regret it for the rest of your life," Tiffany said powerfully.

"When I was an actress, I may have allowed you to bully me. But, now that I'm a manager, I will only admit defeat if you manage to knock me down."

"I beg of you, please."

"Those that grovel at one's feet after they fail, deserve the least amount of sympathy," Tiffany said before she hung up the phone.

If this woman was smart, she would find a feasible reason to withdraw her daughter from the competition. Otherwise, she would end up embarrassing herself in front of the entire nation.

Two days later, Tiffany received news that someone had indeed withdrawn from the competition. The reason was that the contestant had a broken leg.

Everyone actually knew the truth, but they also knew that this was a price they deserved to pay!

However, Wendy's revenge may have been sought...

...but Seohyun's revenge had not started.

Lee Young-Min instructed his family's people to hire a private investigator to look into the matter in detail. In the end, they located the small-time gangsters that attacked the two women that night.

Disregarding everything else, these men had to be beaten until their heads were bleeding before they could satisfy his hatred.

Lee Young-Min was never one to follow the rules. Tiffany had to plan out every step in case someone held something against her, but he didn't have to.

If someone dared to touch one of his people, he was going to make them pay for everything they had done.

Both Tiffany and Lee Young-Min were truly angered by this incident and plenty of people in the industry had heard about it. But of course, Tiffany did not reveal that Wendy had already signed with Crown Empire; it wasn't the right time yet.

Afterwards, Wendy attended the recording for the competition's promo. When asked about how she had been attacked, Wendy first thanked the person that helped her call the police on the night of the incident before she firmly expressed her thoughts.

"I will persist with this competition until the end."

"I want to tell everyone that no matter what happens, I will stick to my original intentions. Sinister people will never get very far."

At this time, someone went to snoop on the contestant that withdrew from the competition and discovered that she had indeed been admitted to the hospital. It seemed, she had broken her right leg.

But, another reporter photographed the contestant leaving her home and driving.

So, the answer became apparent: the broken leg was just an excuse.

As for how the address of this contestant was leaked? It would forever remain a mystery.

...

Because of the incident, Seohyun ended up staying at the hospital for one week.

By the time she was discharged, the entire matter had already been settled and those involved were already punished.

She ended up returning to her position because Wendy was about to compete again. But, every now and then, Lee Young-Min's manager would deliver chicken soup or some nourishing herbs to her.

After a while, Seohyun started to get sick of it.

"Seohyun, you know how your brother's like. If you don't drink it all, I can't report back to him."

"You drink it then," Seohyun replied.

"If you don't drink it, he may deliver himself to you tomorrow..."

Seohyun couldn't handle the threat, so she immediately gulped down the chicken soup.

Actually, the fact that Seohyun accepted Lee Young-Min's care was a sign that their relationship was warming back up. At least, she no longer rejected his good intentions.

That night, Wendy insisted on escorting Seohyun home. However, when they arrived, they found Lee Young-Min standing there, leaning against Seohyun's door.

Wendy smiled and left, while Seohyun asked, "A famous actor waits outside a manager's door. What will everyone think of this?"

"Everyone else thinks that you are merely my sister," Lee Young-Min replied lazily with his arms crossed.

Seohyun couldn't be bothered dealing with him as she directly pushed open the door. However, Lee Young-Min held her back by grabbing hold of her right hand.

The two looked into each other's eyes for a short second before Seohyun sighed, "Come in."

"It seems you've learned a lot from working with Tiffany." Lee Young-Min stepped into Seohyun's apartment and began to analyze the place. "But, don't copy the way that she deals with people. Not many people can accept that."

"President Kim can completely accept it," Seohyun replied with a glare.

"How many Taeyeon's do you think there are in this world?" Lee Young-Min asked as he turned around and raised an eyebrow.

"I still have an event to go to tomorrow, so I need to rest early today. Are you sure you're not going home?" Seohyun sounded like she was trying to shoo him away. Although she didn't completely reject Lee Young-Min, she definitely wasn't at the stage where she completely accepted him.

Lee Young-Min stared at Seohyun for a few seconds and suddenly said in a serious tone, "I'm going to deal with my mother, OK?"

Seohyun lowered her head and laughed. She then looked up at Lee Young-Min and replied, "I don't want to see her ever again. Can you avoid seeing her for the rest of your life?"

"What if I told you I can?"

"You should get going," Seohyun shooed him again instead of giving a response.

Lee Young-Min sighed and turned to leave.

But, he did not immediately go home. Instead, he knocked on Seohyun's neighbor's door, "Give me a price. I want to buy your apartment..."

He could no longer tolerate seeing Seohyun getting hurt. From now on, he was going to dote on his woman.

Soon, the day of Wendy's 32 to 16 elimination round arrived. This time, it was held at the Seoul Korea Stadium, which had a seating capacity of 10,000 people.

As her stage grew and her fan base increased, Wendy felt she had more responsibility on her shoulders.

After all, she wanted to get revenge for Seohyun and also wanted to make the most important people around her proud.

So, just before she began to sing, she looked at everyone and lifted the microphone to her mouth, "As everyone is aware, my manager and I were attacked not too long ago. In order to save me, my manager was seriously injured and was only discharged from the hospital a few days ago."

"This experience has made a huge impact on me. I think I now have a better understanding of why I am on this stage and what I want to achieve."

"My boss, Tiffany, saved me from the dark and gave me a new lease on life, while my manager prioritized my life over hers. The two of them have always been there to shelter me from the storm. Therefore, I think that every song I sing from now on should be sung with gratitude because I need to thank these two women for all the help they have given me and I need to thanks the family at Superstar Media for the warmth they have shown."

"At the beginning, when Seohyun tricked me into signing a contract with Superstar Media, I did not believe that a second chance was possible. But, Fany unnie proved to me that it could be achieved and that she could do the impossible."

"So, following on, I will be presenting everyone with a song that I wrote myself called, 'Saved from the arms of death'."

Wendy had always been a good singer, but now, she sang with even more emotion.

Her song sung about her understanding of life and also the struggles of being in a difficult situation.

But, while the entire venue erupted in an applause for Wendy, Superstar Media released a new statement.

"We would like to thank Wendy for her continued trust in Superstar Media. However, we believe that she deserves an even better stage than what we can offer. So, from today onwards, Wendy will officially become a part of Crown Empire. Wendy, we hope your career continues to soar and may you have a fresh outlook on life."

"Superstar Media are thankful to have worked with you. The next step in your career will be even more exciting!"

After seeing Superstar Media's PR statement, many people were shocked.

Superstar Media's role was suddenly as clear as ice. Tiffany had no intention of forming an independent agency. She was actually uncovering diamonds in the rough and waiting for them to be cut and polished until they shined before handing them over to Crown Empire, where they had a bigger potential...

She even mentioned in the past that she was just a talent scout.

Everyone could immediately imagine how promising Xia Hanmo and Luo Sheng's future would also be.

Wendy did not hear of this news until the competition round was over. But, when she did, she did not feel happy at all.

As a result, she immediately gave Tiffany a phone call, "Fany unnie...how come I didn't know about this at all?"

"What? Are you not happy about joining Crown Empire?"

"I want to stay. You and Seohyun were the ones that gave me a second chance."

"There are only three of us at Superstar Media. If you go to Crown Empire, you will have an entire entertainment empire backing you. Superstar Media does not have the ability to give you the albums you want, nor can we help you achieve the status you wish for. Only Crown Empire has the skill to help you advance, and only Crown Empire can protect you on your path to stardom," Tiffany explained patiently.

"Seohyun and I will continue to support and find more people that are talented. But we don't intend on managing you anymore."

"Fany unnie..."

"Relax. I know you're worried, but trust me, Crown Empire will give you a pleasant surprise. You will definitely like the entertainment empire that my husband has created. From now on, your affairs will be managed by a much more professional team."

Wendy was reluctant to leave, but just like Tiffany said, there was a limit to what Superstar Media could do for her.

Most importantly, she understood that Tiffany still had a lot of people in the industry to save, while she needed to aim for a bigger stage.

This was the best way to show her gratitude to Superstar Media.

"I will always remember that I started off as a part of Superstar Media."

"It's good that you remember," Tiffany replied with a smile.

After speaking, Tiffany put down her phone and leaned into Taeyeon's embrace.

"I'm sending my first artist to Crown Empire. Please make proper arrangements," Tiffany mumbled to Taeyeon.

Taeyeon kissed Tiffany on the back of her head and hugged her tightly, "All your artists are highly talented."

"Of course. Look at who selected them," Tiffany humphed proudly. But deep down she didn't actually want to part with Wendy.

Meanwhile, in the eyes of outsiders, Tiffany appeared to be making a huge sacrifice. After all, it wasn't easy for her to create such a successful artist, yet she signed her over to Crown Empire so easily. Even though Tiffany and Taeyeon were husband and wife, people couldn't help but say that she had done the hard work and handed the success to someone else.

For now, the public couldn't understand Tiffany's intention for establishing Superstar Media.

But, Tiffany naturally didn't care.

Meanwhile, a large number of artists began to see the potential in signing with Tiffany. So, they tried their best to grab her attention. But, Tiffany was not the type to easily sign on a new artist.

"Have you picked out your next artist?" Taeyeon gently asked before it was time to sleep. After all, she had already saved three artists, so it was only a matter of time before she signed more.

"Yes, I've picked someone. But, they are not an artist," Tiffany replied softly.

"Huh?"

"Just wait and see. I am going to create a miracle," Tiffany said mysteriously.

Taeyeon couldn't help but laugh as he pulled Tiffany dotingly into his arms and whispered beside her ear, "You are the miracle."

The public analyzed Tiffany's current value to the entertainment industry and discovered that even though she wasn't a model or an actress, she was still capable of producing many useful results.

Therefore, many artists appeared out of nowhere, wanting to sign with Tiffany. It didn't matter if they were famous or not. In the eyes of these artists, as long as they underwent a transformation by Tiffany, they assumed they would definitely achieve something. After all, even someone with a horrible reputation like Xia Hanmo managed to be completely cleaned up.

However, Tiffany was currently not interested in signing another artist. There was only one thing that she wanted to do.

So, now that Wendy had signed on with Crown Empire, Seohyun temporarily returned to Tiffany's side and Tiffany ended up giving her some information to go look for a director called Qiao Sen.

Qiao Sen was a 60-year-old elder. As a director, his status in the film industry was slightly awkward.

He changed professions late in life and went from being an engineer to pursuing a career in directing. He had mentioned a long time ago that he wanted to improve the quality of special effects in China, but no one was willing to invest in his proposal.

Therefore, he barely produced any work and had no investors even though he had a great script.

Because of this, he was diagnosed with depression and ended up moving to a private island under the care of his family.

Tiffany wanted him to make a comeback because she wanted to fulfill the old man's wish. She wanted to help him create a sci-fi film that the entire nation would be proud of.

After listening to Tiffany's idea, Taeyeon explained, "If you are serious about investing in a film like this, it needs to perform well in the box office. Otherwise, you won't be able to make back the cost."

"I've already prepared myself," Tiffany said with seriousness, "You know how serious I am."

Taeyeon was quiet for a few seconds before he gently patted her on the head, "If you want to do it, then go ahead and do it. If you go bankrupt, I'll take care of you..."

Taeyeon did not stand in the way of Tiffany's crazy idea. After all, he understood his wife's ambition.

If Tiffany wanted to do something, no one would be able to stop her.

"In that case, I may need to leave Seoul Korea for a couple of days," Tiffany said as she hooked her arms around Taeyeon's neck. "I want to personally look for Elder Qiao Sen. Tae..."

Taeyeon rubbed Tiffany's forehead and hugged her tightly, "I will give you whatever you want."

Love was a relationship of mutual fulfillment.

So, Tiffany returned Taeyeon's hug and began to undo his shirt. The couple kissed each other passionately. Even after so long, their love was still intense...

The couple then moved into the living room. Taeyeon regained control of the situation and placed Tiffany onto the sofa. As he looked into her eyes, their bodies pressed against each other intimately...

The two bodies became passionately entangled, like they were wrestling, as their infatuation for the other person drove them crazy...

In the end, the couple spent the entire night displaying countless amounts of affection. This was the first time that Tiffany felt her energy had been completely drained from her body; she could imagine that even walking upstairs would be a laborious task.

Afterwards, Taeyeon carried Tiffany upstairs to their bedroom. However, the couple were still joined together. So, in her dazed state, Tiffany couldn't help but mumble, "No...no more..."

For the first time, the couple indulged in their desires
