LOGINQuinn nodded slightly. "Okay, we'll come over once we're finished!"Tanya then turned to smile at Charlie. "Do listen to 'Assassin' if you have the time, Mr. Wade. The translated lyrics really touched me."Charlie had never liked music and wouldn't particularly go out of his way to listen to pop songs.As for concerts, he had only ever attended the concerts of two artists, and they were both here in the room.Still, he made a mental note to study up on the song, although he wasn't sure if he had heard Quinn sing it when he had last seen her in concert.Even remembering it now, watching Quinn's concert had been quite entertaining.The first one had been in Aurous Hill, but he had been too worried about Quinn confessing her love to him to enjoy it.The second was in New York, but while he thought he could enjoy the concert for a change, he had discovered that the Qing Eliminating Society was coming for the Ackers.On the way back, Charlie linked his phone via Bluetooth to the MPV
Charlie never dreamt that two women would be so dead set on making him dance for them at the same time.All six feet of him? Dance?However, before he could refuse, Quinn hugged his arm and pouted, "Please, Charlie… Just this once, okay? It's not even a dance—it's just wire stunts and some martial arts choreography. Also, you'd be wearing full armor that covers your face and even your hands. No one would even see your little finger."While Tanya was aware she had no right to pout at Charlie, she nodded and smiled expectantly, "Mr. Wade, if you can join us for our duet, I'm sure it would be an unforgettable memory.""Exactly!" Quinn nodded eagerly. "And you didn't promise me what I asked before, so you can promise me this one, right?"Charlie couldn't help relenting from seeing her pouting. As Quinn insisted that it was just some martial arts choreography, he said solemnly, "You promised—I won't show my face, or I'd embarrass myself."Seeing that Charlie had relented, Quinn hugg
Pausing, Tanya then continued, "I'd like more interaction, ideally singing one of your songs and then one of mine, as well as a solo performance from you. What do you think?""No problem. I can basically sing all your songs," Quinn smiled cheerfully, but then asked worriedly, "But most of my songs are in Oskian… Will you be able to manage?""Of course!" Tanya nodded, smiling. "I've been following your work too. Being artists, we tend to have a good memory when it comes to rhythm and lyrics, though lyrics will be a little challenging, but that's fine. Besides, don't forget that we have teleprompters, and even with the language barrier, I could use transliteration, and that's most of the song done!"Charlie smiled and nodded as well. "I've seen artists do that abroad, and even the singers in the country do the same… There were still some that screwed up anyway, and it ended up being a viral meme."Quinn laughed. "So, you still remember?"Charlie chuckled. "It really was that infamou
Tanya might not have regarded Quinn with much importance in the past—she was at least a few ranks beneath her as a singer, after all.At present, most globally influential artists lived in the western hemisphere, which had a lot to do with English being the universal language, and it was also how Hollywood remained on top of showbiz.Quinn may be influential amongst Oskians all over the world, but it didn't apply to the rest.That wasn't the case for Tanya, who was endlessly popular in almost every country—even where there was a language barrier. That was how she had risen as a global phenomenon.Even then, at this very moment, all her thoughts were on getting into Quinn's good graces.She really had no idea what the connection between Quinn and Charlie was, but she could tell from Charlie and Quinn's exchange that Charlie really cared about Quinn.And in Tanya's mind, if Charlie cared about Quinn, so must she.Quinn was ready to be starstruck herself and was surprised that said
Charlie was stumped.He definitely did not expect Quinn to say that out loud, as he really expected her to share a tacit understanding not to press the issue.He didn't expect Quinn to just give up on pretenses and say it out loud.Still, he suddenly realized that this wasn't just a matter of perpetuating his lineage.For Quinn, this was just as important to her… If not more.And seeing his conflict, Quinn quietly reached over to tug on his arm, assuring him, "You don't have to feel pressured. I've got your back no matter what happens."Charlie nodded quietly, but he wasn't at ease at all despite his calmness.-Shangri-la was already congested with journalists when they arrived, as everyone was hoping to catch an exclusive for Tanya's first concert in Eastcliff.Fortunately, Shangri-la was sublime when it came to protecting their guests' privacy, clearing out the entire top floor for Tanya and her crew.Aside from the presidential suite booked for Tanya, the other business s
Quinn's words left Charlie feeling a little awkward, as he didn't expect her to see through him right then.Even as he drove, he chuckled awkwardly, "No, I'm not hiding… We're going straight to Tanya to discuss your cameo…"Quinn smiled, shaking her head. "Please. I know we've been apart for years, but I still know you."She didn't make it obvious, but Charlie knew full well that she could read his mind.But while he wasn't sure how to respond, she added, "There are plenty of things that are less complicated than you think, and priority matters—it can wait."Charlie nodded, sighing. "I guess the old folks are getting a little impatient."Quinn nodded too, her tone serious, "There are plenty of things they're worried about, especially the situation where you might fail. But I'm not worried."Charlie chuckled. "You're that confident in me?""Yep!" Quinn replied bluntly, having unconditional faith in him.She wouldn't doubt it for a moment if Charlie were to one day claim the wor

There was a dash of uncertainty and doubt on Christopher’s face. He was almost convinced that his wife had run away with the money!There was no other better explanation than this!How could four adults disappear out of thin air just like that?Even if they did, there must be some clues or traces left
The receptionist said with an apologetic expression, “Sir, I’m so sorry, all our suites on the seventh floor are fully booked. We’ve checked, but the only available suites for your membership level are on the third floor and below. Would you like us to prepare a suite for you on the third floor?”Jak
