256 Painting her name in the industry

As she searched through the crowd that was like ants due to the height she was standing, she couldn’t help feeling envious of VJ Cute. She knew these people were not here for her, they were here for VJ Cute’s voice. It was sad, but this is her destiny- to steal people’s fortune and not work hard for hers! 1

Inside the VIP area, Rex could be seen with Celestine, waiting for the show to begin. Of course, they were not here for Christine, they were here for their sister–in–law.

The light on the stage went out and a spotlight was fixed on Christine. From up above, the stage elevator lift she was standing on slowly lowered her down, like an angel gloriously descending from the sky.

Her melodic voice followed, breaking through the loud cheers of the fans who were already waving their placards with different titles and names written on them.

‘Little Angel‘

‘Christine‘

‘Goddess of music‘

‘We love you‘

‘Savior of music‘

And much more…

Spirit came close

Angels prayed for me

The world was love

Everything was bright

I held on to hope

Cause I saw the light

It shined so bright

It

gave me warmth

I was shrouded in peace

Not knowing the world

It’s an illusion

It’s a battlefield

But I came to win

I came to conquer

I descend to grow…..!

We cannot let things be…

We cannot let the world fail

We cannot stop showing love

For love is the answer

But revenge is mandate…!

We rule the world, girls rule the world!

We show them how to rule with love

They really don’t know

Everything’s not about violence.

But knowledge and wits

Don’t use brute force

Don’t fight too much

Just use your wit

And let them fall

Under your feet, they belong 2x

They have no idea, we are watching

They have no idea, girls are watching

They’ve taken too much, we’ll take it back.

They caused so much pain, we’ll seek revenge…!

We cannot let things be….

We cannot let the world fail

We cannot stop showing love

For love is the answer

But revenge is mandate…!

I was shrouded in peace

Not knowing the world

It’s an illusion

It’s a battlefield

I came to win

1 came to conquer

I descend to grow…!

Spirit came close

Angels prayed for me

The world was love

Everything was bright This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

I held on to hope

Cause I saw the light

It shined so bright

It gave me warmth

…However…..

I hope it’s not too late to find peace….

A deafening round of applause almost brought down the roof of the venue. The music was simply marvelous and powerful! sang with different voices.

The transition of her voice was mad! From gentle tune to powerful vocal stretching. Sometimes, it’s a short notes, other times it’s long notes. There were even places she used opera. It takes only a genius to achieve this and ‘Christine‘ was simply a genius among music geniuses.

Even Celestine couldn’t help but clap as she wiped away the stray tears that came to sit on her cheek from the heart gripping voice.

‘My student is a hidden gem, I’m proud of you. She thought.

“My sister–in–law’s talent is simply too mind–blowing. I’m definitely the happiest person here tonight. Hahaha…!” Rex said while clapping.

Seeing everyone singing her praises like this, Christine couldn’t hold back her envy and broke down in tears. To the people, she was just too overwhelmed and surprised that her debut was a success. But to legends, they knew she was crying because the success wasn’t hers.

Even as she was crying, the crazy fans were praising her cries.

“Look at that, aww, she’s so cute!”

“Her tears are sparkling! Please, zoom in!”

“VJ Cute is so talented and her tears too, they knew when to fall.”

“We love you, VJ Cute!”

“VJ Cute, Thank you!”

So many bizarre words kept flying everywhere as fans went crazy over everything she did on stage.

Wherever there are fans, there would surely be a handful of anti–fans and haters.

“What is she even doing crying like that on the stage? Is she a child?!”

“What do you expect? She’s a drama queen and would definitely use a platform like this to garner

more fans.”

“She has already won. Her debut in Country M is a success, more successful than her popularity in Country A, so it’s a big deal for a waste like her.”

“Look at the humans, they can’t seem to get over her music. Pfft!”

“Honestly, the music was wonderful but I hate the singer.”

“Are you a worm in my stomach? I hate that bitch too! She seems too pretentious, God!”

“Hahaha…let’s see how her life will turn out in this company. A lot of people won’t leave her alone, especially those bitter bitches that keep causing trouble for other artists.”

“It will be fun to watch. I’ll need to visit my paparazzi friend to stick to this bitch. I don’t want to invest my feelings in her now and later, she turns out to be another snake. I’m scared of heartbreaks. and defending rubbish humans.”

Different people talking to their friends amongst the loud noises that were almost detrimental to the human cars.

Christine finally pulled herself together and started to give her speech.

“I’m lost for words, I’m sorry.” She tried to laugh but tears ran down her cheeks instead. She wiped them and continued: “I never thought I would ever get here. A lot of you know my journey, how tough it was…”

Rex sneered. “Of course, tell us your story,” he offhandedly made the sarcastic remark but had no idea that Christine was actually going in that direction.

“My adopted parents used to be very nice people. They treated me… well.” She choked. To some fans, that was a sign that she was abused.

‘Poor VJ Cute.

‘I feel sad hearing that!

“…my sister, Jeslyn, was really nice. She treated me like a sister, but…” She wiped her tears again. “I’m sure I misunderstood her, I should have treaded carefully to not annoy her again. It was my fault, please, don’t hate me, sister… sister, wherever you are if you’re seeing this video… I’m so sorry, please forgive me and come back home. I miss you so much!”

Tongues started to wag senselessly among the fans again. Almost everyone was insulting and cursing Jeslyn while praising Christine and calling her a pure–hearted soul.

“This girl doesn’t want to leave my sister–in–law alone. Even now, she doesn’t want to give Jeslyn a chance to live at all.” Rex fumed.

“Scheming, manipulative, and insecure people are like this. They’ll cut off all routes to their enemies‘ redemption. Don’t worry, Jeslyn will be fine. My Manager is not one of the best for nothing.” Celestine patted Rex on the shoulder.
