Chapter 271
The recital ended up having a massive crowd with the addition of Catherine. Not only did Bryan go, buteven Ronin followed. The appearance of several attractive people drew the attention of many of the fansin attendance.
A big fan recognized Yesenia, as she had thrown a lot of money into supporting her favorite idol.
“Ms. Yesenia, you’re here! Are these guys all your friends?”
The fact that the fan did not recognize Catherine somewhat annoyed Yesenia, and she made anintroduction to the fan at the first opportunity.
“Don’t you know Super Catherine? She’s Peerless Grayson’s regular composer. Those famous songs ofPeerless Grayson are all written by Super Catherine. Don’t you even know that?”
There had been rumors on the internet before that Catherine, the sister of actress Audrey, knew Graysonbecause she was Grayson’s arranger.
But it was all rumors, and no one had any solid information, so people weren’t sure. After all, manypeople liked to boast and would end up getting exposed and humiliated.
The big fan glanced at Catherine and treated her kind of politely for Yesenia’s sake. “Super Catherine,please take a seat. The recital is about to start!”
Catherine ignored the fan and sat down where Yesenia pointed. She had no interest in unfamiliar people.At the last celebration gala, although her identity had been publicly exposed, Branden blocked all thenews on the spot.
The news that she was Sugar, a great composer, did not explode on the internet; only a small portion ofthe netizens knew about it. Because of Yesenia’s introduction, Catherine had caught quite a few people’seyes.
On their left side, a girl wearing a short pink shirt said to her friend at the side, “This is Catherine.Previously, when Peerless Grayson was on the variety show, she was sticking herself to PeerlessGrayson, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to climb to the top!”
“That’s her. Now she’s rushing to the recital. Does she want to create more gossip so everyone knowsabout her and she can take advantage of the opportunity to get to the top?”
“I’ve heard that she and Audrey aren’t that close either. It’s all for the show. They are related by blood,yeah. But because of her bad luck, she was brought to the countryside by her parents as a child to fendfor herself. Other people called her a jinx, the kind that even her parents didn’t want her!”
“Really? So exaggerated? How can a child from the countryside like her be a great composer? Couldshe be another one of those tricksters? After all, no one has ever seen Sugar in person!”
The girl in the pink shirt snorted. “Who knows? I won’t believe anything else unless Peerless Graysonpersonally certifies it!”novelbin
The sound of their discussion was light but still reached Yesenia’s side. Yesenia was furious as soon asshe heard that someone was dissing Catherine. But just as she was about to stand up, Bryan pulled herback.
Yesenia turned back and looked at Bryan with a puzzled expression. ”
What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you’re trying to stop me. Didn’t you hear them bad-mouthing Boss?”
Bryan swept a glance in Catherine’s direction and said in a cold voice, “Do you think Boss cares aboutthat? Stay out of trouble and listen to Boss’s arrangements.”
Hearing his words, Yesenia glanced in Catherine’s direction, only to find Catherine had a calm look andfocused on her cell phone with an expressionless face the entire time. It was obvious that she wasn’taffected at all.
It wasn’t that Bryan wasn’t generous, but he looked at the problem from a deeper perspective thanYesenia.
They had plenty of opportunities to clean up these people. However, given Yesenia’s dramaticpersonality, she wouldn’t stop until she made a scene.
The recital was about to start, and perhaps Catherine didn’t want to ruin Grayson’s recital. Yesenia satdown somewhat reluctantly, extremely annoyed.
Bryan leaned close to her ear and whispered, “Don’t worry. Just wait until the recital is over, and then youcan make as much of a scene as you want!”
A few more minutes passed, and the recital hadn’t started yet. The recital should have started fiveminutes ago, but nothing had happened. The crowd was chattering in groups inside the venue, but noone was complaining.
After all, these fans were used to waiting. Generally, this kind of small- scale fan recital could hardly starton time due to various factors, and a delay of one or two hours was the norm, not to mention five or sixminutes.
The head fan who had gone out to inquire about the news returned. She told the crowd of anxiouslywaiting fans about the latest news she had learned.
“I’m telling you guys, Peerless Grayson shot all night yesterday for today’s recital. He’s alreadybackstage and will be ready to start the recital in about ten minutes. He’s a bit late because it’s a longway from the set, plus the traffic is a bit more congested on Fridays. Everyone should be moreunderstanding of him, okay?”
At these words, the crowd of Grayson’s fans let out sighs, feeling heartbroken that their idol was workingso hard.
For people like Bryan, it was already for Catherine’s sake that they could come to see Grayson’s recital,and as a result, they now had to wait.
When he heard that another ten minutes would be required, he couldn’t help but complain about it. “Whycouldn’t he have left earlier when he knew that there would be traffic jams on a Friday? Is Grayson sounreliable in his work?”
Yesenia, a perennial star follower with a lot of experience, looked at Bryan with disdain and said indisgust, “You just know nothing! It’s called a big star! The more famous one is, the later he appears.Waiting for the stage too early will mean disgrace, you know?”
“Why should I know it? Is Grayson different from us? Does he have one more nose or two more eyesthan we do? I can be friends with Grayson, but it’s better to kill me if I’m told to follow some celebrities,”thought Bryan.
Not only Bryan but Ronin also couldn’t wait any longer. He suggested to Catherine in a low voice, “Boss,we can find a separate time for Grayson to sing for you alone if you want to hear him sing. Or maybe wecan wait until later and celebrate the birthday together when his recital is over, just before twelve o’clock.I don’t believe he won’t come.”
Then he added, “It’s almost seven now. Let’s grab some food. You’ll have a problem with your stomach ifyou starve too long.”
Catherine’s stomach had some minor problems, so she had to eat on time. Ronin knew it was allbecause of him, so he was more concerned about this than anyone else. Hearing Ronin’s proposal,Bryan was in favor of it. “I agree!”
Before Catherine could reply, she heard the girl in the short pink shirt from before say mockingly, “Do youreally think you’re something? How dare you let Peerless Grayson sing for you guys alone? Are youserious?”
Another girl on the side immediately added, “That’s right. I don’t even know if she’s that great composer,but she dares to be so arrogant! Who do you think you are? You still want Peerless Grayson to celebrateyour birthday with you. How dare you?”
“Times have changed, really. Anyone can brag about anything now?”
The later ones went further overboard, and what they said got harsher and harsher. Ronin was about toexplode with anger.
“You bastards, how dare you diss Boss? It looks like you guys have a death wish! shouted he inwardly.
