Love on the Fast Track

Chapter 336:

Norah’s expression darkened as she addressed Emerson. “I don’t detect any sincerity in your words. Do you truly believe we’re incapable of grasping the implications of what you’re saying, especially with everyone present backstage?”

Joanna’s eyes flashed with a hint of disdain as she spoke to Norah. “He’s treating us as if we’re naive. If you have something to say, be direct. Otherwise, he’ll persist in pretending not to understand.”

“Miss, you’ve done me a disservice. Starbeam, am I not stating facts? I haven’t heard any cheers for the Dream. The fans out there are solely for Rosy Secret!” Emerson shrugged, masking insincerity.

Coyle considered that Emerson had a valid argument. If the Dream lacked a fan base, did they truly possess the credentials to perform at the Glamour Club? Had it not been for the sudden presence of these big shots tonight, he and Emerson might have kicked the Dream out of the Glamour Club.

With Rosy Secret’s popularity and vast fan base, Coyle didn’t find any fault in their efforts to overshadow and marginalize the Dream. His countenance darkened. A talented band like the Dream should have been prohibited from emerging altogether! He vowed to eliminate any threats to Rosy Secret’s domineering position in national bands.

Now that Starbeam was the Dream’s songwriter, it gave him a solid reason to further prevent the Dream from performing and gaining recognition.

Coyle said to Emerson, “Mr. Moran, we can’t delay any further. The performance must begin now.”noveldrama

Coyle’s hand throbbed with pain, and he wished to leave as soon as possible. His recent words would likely attract public criticism, potentially leading to his being punished if he stayed any longer.

Spencer, arriving late and unaware of the situation, observed Norah’s serious expression. Subconsciously, he directed Rosy Secret’s members to head to the stage. “Proceed with the performance if it’s ready. Let’s not delay.”

Upon hearing Spencer’s instructions, Emerson swiftly gathered the Rosy Secret members and promptly left.

Norah hesitated, eventually deciding not to intervene as Emerson and the others exited. The backstage area was now sparsely populated, with only a handful of people remaining.

Kaiden proposed, “Norah, let’s get out of here and head to a chamber upstairs.”

Spencer added, “Yeah. There’s a VIP chamber upstairs. Allow me to escort you there.”

In reality, Kaiden and Spencer had come backstage specifically for Norah. As her esteemed guests, she shouldn’t have been in the backstage area during the band’s preparations. As bar owners, it wasn’t proper to entertain guests in such a manner.

“Alright, just a moment,” Norah addressed her friends before approaching Zeke. “Listen, our composure remained intact today, showcasing our decency. Remember, regardless of Rosy Secret’s arrogance, the Dream will outshine them eventually. You’re all exceptional.”

Norah’s words ignited determination in the members of the Dream. They longed to challenge Rosy Secret immediately. Zeke felt a newfound strength as Norah arrived, as if their band had found its cornerstone. His confidence, previously shaken by Emerson and Coyle, surged back instantly.

What did it matter if Rosy Secret had a large fan base? With Norah as their songwriter, the Dream would certainly perform better than Rosy Secret. “Norah, we won’t let you down!”

“Yeah, that’s right!” The remaining three members of the Dream nodded in unison.

“Excellent. My purpose today is to assess your progress. Showcase your talents and deliver an exceptional performance to the audience.”

Norah’s words had a profound impact. The passion in the Dream’s members’ eyes was palpable.

Norah pushed Alice’s wheelchair out and then departed from the backstage area. On their way to the chamber upstairs, Joanna gave Norah a thumbs up and praised her, “Norah, you’re absolutely amazing! You’ve inspired me and got me so pumped up, I almost felt like going up on stage to sing a song!”

Spencer, who was ahead of them, turned back and said, “Miss Andrews, I’m eagerly anticipating your performance at the Glamour Club’s stage.”

Bryson watched Joanna’s beaming face and said to Spencer, “She’s just joking. Spencer, ignore her comments.”

Interestingly, Bryson and Joanna hadn’t known Spencer and Kaiden before. Their friendship had developed because Kason and Joanna were both hospitalized at Silver Boulder Private Hospital.
