Chapter 76: Chapter 76 - An Incredible Song
Yuna, this time, couldn\'t control herself. "He has enough money for something like this. I just want to be the one treating him for everything he\'s done for me. Not like a whore like would understand, sleeping with everyone to get connections."
Yuna smirked when she saw Kailah\'s flustered face, which wasn\'t able to talk back to what she had just said.
"I-I\'m not a whore. You are!"
"Good one. But aren\'t you the one trying to seduce my manager right after seeing him? Don\'t worry. He doesn\'t want you anywhere near him. You\'re fat and ugly; why would he even want you around? At least you got Colin, that ugly bastard; you know your worth from the looks of it."
Yuna went in repeatedly without any restraints. She insulted Kailah repeatedly, and she was slowly winning as Kailah was unable to formulate answers.
"Tsk. Whatever. Let\'s just listen to that single of yours. Isn\'t it supposed to come out right now?"
Darius smiled. "Yes, let\'s go."
Darius hadn\'t even been able to listen to her song as he had fully trusted Ivy over the entire process, and he would continue to do so since Darius was the last person who knew stuff about music. It was better to leave it to experts that he could fully trust, like Ivy, who was now wrapped around his fingers, listening to his every word in exchange for some attention.
Darius pulled out his phone and went to a music platform called Spotifun. It was the biggest music platform in the world, and every single artist released their music there, making it free for everyone to listen to.
Darius typed Yuna\'s full name in the search bar and found her profile with a single song under it.
"Ready?" Darius asked out loud as he could feel Yuna\'s small around his waist. She was very stressed over this moment as she had worked for the past few days on this song with Ivy, making sure that it would be the best of the best. After all, she knew the importance of a good first song. It could make her known to the entire world if she played this right.
"Yes. I\'m ready," Yuna said.
"Just press play already. We already know that it\'s going to be trash," Kailah uttered with clear disdain for Yuna.
Colin, on the other hand, just stayed silent as he sat on a bench.
In fact, Colin hadn\'t said a single word ever since they had met. It seemed that the past humiliations had been too much for him to handle, as he couldn\'t even glance into Darius\'s eyes anymore.
\'Let\'s hope that it\'s bad…\' Colin thought in the back of his mind, not showing any emotion on the outside. After all, Colin prayed for Darius\'s downfall every night before sleeping. Darius had entered his mind, and he couldn\'t get him out.
"Alright. Then, let\'s go."
Darius pressed play, and the beat of the music started playing. It was quite catchy and funky at the same time, and Darius liked it.
Then, after a few seconds, Yuna started singing, and Darius was shocked.
It was the best song that he had ever heard out of her. Obviously, it wouldn\'t have been her best work if he had compared it to her later works in the future, but it was definitely good, and it was definitely catchy.
That was the most important thing about a song. It needed to be catchy. That way, once it entered someone\'s man, it would never come out. That\'s how people are able to differentiate good songs from others.
Time passed by so fast while listening to her first song that it finally came to an end, and it was pure silence. No one said anything at first; all of them were shocked over what they had just heard—well, everyone, except for Yuna, who was stressing because there was no feedback yet.
"S-So…uh, how was it? Did you like it?"
Darius was the first one to speak up as Kailah was currently gritting her teeth out of anger.
"It was amazing. Good job!" Darius exclaimed.
"A-Are you sure? You\'re not lying to me, right?"
Darius grabbed her by her shoulders. "Trust me. This will definitely work. I have an eye for these sorts of things."
Darius subtly referenced the fact that he came from the future to Yuna. However, she was the only one who could understand as she nodded very slowly her head.
"O-Ok. I trust you," Yuna said with a slight blush as she immediately understood what he meant by those words.
The next person to speak up was Colin, as Kailah was still cursing Yuna in the back of her mind, trying to think of a way to insult her and the song she had made. However, no matter how much time she spent, nothing came to her mind. The song was simply too good.
Colin coughed once to gather the attention on him and said, "This was definitely much better than what I had expected out of you. It seemed your time with Darius made you a much better singer. I\'m happy for you." m _v,l_e _mp|y|r chapter
Darius was surprised by how calm and nice Colin was—so much so that he thought Colin had some kind of plan in the back of his mind since that was just how manipulative he was. However, those were simply congratulations—nothing more, nothing less. Colin was genuinely impressed with her performance.
Yuna just glared at him and didn\'t say another word, only nodding her head.
Now, it was time for Kailah to congratulate Yuna or insult her, whatever she preferred.
"Y-Your song…it was alright."
\'Oh, it\'s not an insult?\' Darius thought with a frown, sure that Kailah would have found something by now. However, Kailah simply hadn\'t finished talking.
"Though you shouldn\'t use autotune so much. I know you can\'t sing, but it becomes annoying after some time."
To that sentence, Yuna simply frowned. "Autotune? What are you talking about…I never used that making the song."
\'Fuck, so she just sounded that good on her own?\' Kailah thought, panicking. She realized that maybe Yuna was actually talented, unlike her.
Nevertheless, Kailah put on a calm expression on her face, hiding her panic. "Hm, is that so? Then, I guess it\'s just your voice that\'s annoying. Oh well, that\'s unfortunate for you."
Darius nodded while Yuna tried her best to stay calm. "Well, I think we\'ll take our leave. May we never see each other again!"
However, just as Darius was about to leave, he noticed that Kailah was making him signs that indicated she wanted him to call her. Darius just smiled.
"You\'re not worth recruiting for my agency. Apart from a pretty face, you have absolutely nothing."
With those last humiliating words, Darius and Yuna took their leave as Kailah started shouting after Colin for not speaking up even once during this entire interaction between the two of them.
