LOGINSeeing that Tanya was absolutely flustered, Quinn giggled, "Oh, don't worry about it. There are plenty of other girls who like Charlie. It would be weird if the girls who have met him didn't like him, considering how perfect he is."Seeing that no one else was there, especially Charlie, Tanya mustered her courage and said, "I like him, but I think it's not exactly as you imagine. Other girls might be hoping to get together with him, but I wouldn't dare…""Why?" Quinn asked, curious.It was the first time Tanya had had a heart-to-heart with anyone, and so, she decided not to hide anything. "I've been involved in some complicated relationships over the years, and there has been plenty of coverage on that… Moreover, there was some dirty laundry that I had, which was soon exposed after I met Mr. Wade. Even though I didn't know better back then, I'm sure that someone like me isn't exactly that desirable in a relationship, so I wouldn't dare yearn for Mr. Wade to be interested."Quinn
The next day was the last of Tanya's Eastcliff concerts.The crew worked at full speed the whole day for final preparations, and as the protagonist, Tanya had the most responsibilities.She would be working with her crew to run through the full course of the schedule until it was muscle memory, making sure everything went on with precision and zero mistakes.Quinn had her work cut out for her, too—she was brought in at the last minute and had to liaise with Tanya's crew.She brought her own crew, too, as they had been with her when she performed Assassin before and had a plan for the backdrop and lighting tailored to the song, so they would be borrowing Tanya's equipment to replicate it.Moreover, the exchanges as they took the stage, including greetings, introductions, and call-outs to the fans, were also planned.They had just met, but the performance today and the other three after meant they had to look friendly, if not close, which would improve the vibe while on stage.In
Charlie scratched his head in embarrassment. "I know the theme of your song. It's great and touching, but if you sing together, I'd be dancing with one person and then the other… It's like the Assassin had two wives, said goodbye before going to slay the tyrant, and came back to his wives… The whole tone would have changed!"Quinn smiled, nonchalant. "We are talking about olden times—polygamy was a thing back in the day. Would it be strange that a successful assassin who was a hero to his nation did not have two wives? Plenty of martial arts tales protagonists have plenty of wives, too."Charlie sighed in exasperation. "Gosh… That doesn't sound right, but it somehow makes sense…"Tanya giggled as well. "The same also applies to Western civilization in olden times."Then, she asked Quinn excitedly, "Does that mean I should wear an Oskian dress, too?"Quinn smiled and nodded. "That would be perfect, and nothing would look out of place that way aside from your foreign appearance."T
Charlie was surprised that both Tanya and Quinn would share him equally, and he was still not sure about his own choreography on top of that.Nonetheless, the stage was quickly prepared for their performance.Tanya had the sound engineer play Assassin on a more controlled volume as they adjusted their positions and the stage designs. They were also using a stage monitor, as Tanya's fans could be way too enthusiastic—the entire venue had been surrounded by fans over the two days that the stage set was being built. Thankfully, security has maintained a perimeter, keeping them out around a hundred feet.If they heard Quinn's song, they would quickly catch on that Quinn would come on as a guest, blowing the surprise and exposing the fact that Quinn was already back in Eastcliff.After all, everyone had agreed to keep Quinn's guest appearance a surprise and not leak anything beforehand so that she could announce it herself by appearing on stage.While Quinn wasn't as famous as Tanya,
For the remainder of the dinner, Carmen was even more eager to please, as if she already considered herself a servant and not an heiress of the Wades.The sudden change in attitude left Rachel and Yule overwhelmed.However, Carmen didn't think that doing such a thing demeaned her. Despite her pride, she was absolutely willing.-Charlie got a call from Tanya after dinner. "Mr. Wade, we're having a rehearsal tonight. Will you and Ms. Golding have the time to join us? The first concert is coming up soon, but your choreography has yet to be decided."Charlie felt a headache at the idea that he would be dancing for both women—who on earth would do that?However, he was also a man of his word, and there was no taking back what he had agreed upon.Moreover, his principle was always to give his best or not do it at all, and since Quinn trusted him so much, he could not disappoint her."Alright," he told Tanya. "I'll talk to Quinn and check her schedule.""Alright. I'll be waiting."
Carmen wasn't disappointed by what Charlie said. Instead, she sharply caught on that he was giving her a chance.At present, the Wades had disappointed him thoroughly, but if there was a rank, the one who least disappointed him would be Jeremiah, and then herself.Even if she had messed with Elaine before, she was still in a better position than Clayton and the rest.And aside from Jeremiah, she was the only one aware that half a Rejuvenation Pill was the reward, and that alone meant she already had a headstart.If she did her best and put up a commendable performance, she would definitely leave a good impression on Charlie's mind.Barely able to hide her excitement, she said, "Don't worry, Charlie! I'll definitely put the family before my own interests!"Charlie nodded and handed the half-pill to Jeremiah. "Gramps, you will hold on to this for the time being."Jeremiah was dumbstruck.Him? Was Charlie not worried that he would just take the pill?They were talking about the R
“Okay, Master Wade!”***After ending the call with Aurora, Charlie called Nanako. Nanako was embroidering at home. When she received Charlie’s call, she said happily, “Charlie-kun, what are you busy with now?”Charlie smiled and said, “I’m driving, and I’m on the way back to the city. There’s somethin

Lady Acker hurriedly said, “I planned to go to the place where Ashley used to live today. I had someone investigate before, and it seems that the old mansion has been bought by Sheldon Schulz’s ex-wife.”Christian frowned and asked, “Sheldon Schulz’s ex-wife?”“Yes.” Lady Acker nodded slightly.
