The Demon’s Angelic Love - Chapter 144

After waiting for two weeks, today was the day when the duet song would be released to the public. It was kind of rushed to release a song in two weeks period, but because both Michy and CM were popular, their song was still doing good on the music chart.

Just thirty minutes after the official release, the song immediately took over the music charts as the number one song in real-time charts. Not only that, but some hashtags about the song along with Michy and CM successfully became trending topics on social media.

Some hashtags like #CousinsPower #SwimmingInDeepOceanWithMichyAndCM #PerfectComboMichyCM were dominating the trend right now.

Michy was currently in Willem’s office along with Willem, Felice, and CM. It was not a formal meeting, but it was just an internal meeting to monitor how the song was doing in the charts.

“The song has reached 50.000 downloads now. Maybe in just a day, the song will be able to reach 500.000 downloads,” Willem proudly stated as he kept his gaze on the 50-inch monitor in his office.

It was only half an hour since the release of the song, but the song already got that many downloads. If they were talking about the statistics, then this new song did even better than Michy’s debut song.

That was why Willem was so greedy to aim for a bigger outcome after seeing how the current result of the song.

Perhaps the good result was caused by Michy’s scandal. People’s attention was on Michy all this time, and it was like a blessing in disguise for them. Even if they only prepared for the song in a short time, the song still managed to do well in the charts.

They didn’t even have time to do massive promotions and only promoted the song on social media, but the song was still doing well.

It was no wonder that Willem’s face looked so bright now.

“Dad, which one of us is singing better? Me or Michy?” CM suddenly threw a question in response to his father’s proud statement.

Willem raised his brow as he turned to his daughter. “You both did well. Why should I choose between you and your cousin?”

“But, I want to hear your opinion, Dad! Who is singing better between me and Michy?” CM was stubborn, and she kept questioning her father even if her father didn’t want to answer the question.

However, Willem was not someone who would easily relent just because his only daughter kept cornering him. Willem was known for his strict personality, and even if sometimes he could be lenient, most of the time he acted as a strict person.

He was the leader of a big company, and he didn’t have any choice but to act like the true leader he was.

“It’s not the time to talk about the insignificant matter, Carmen,” the boss of Seventius reprimand his daughter, and the daughter fell silent right away.

Pouting her lips, CM then chose to rest her back on the back of the couch. She looked upset at her father, but she also didn’t dare to argue when her father was displaying such a serious expression on his face.

Seeing how his daughter finally stopped bothering him with the trivial question, Willem sighed before speaking, “The song is doing great, and there will be a showcase for Carmen and Michy tomorrow. And even if it’s just a mini showcase, you two have to perform well in the showcase.”

Willem was indeed stubborn with his plan. He dared to release a song for Michy and CM in a short time, and he even prepared for a showcase tomorrow. It was a kind of rushed decision, but for someone professional like Willem, that wouldn’t be a big deal.

However, his calm expression was different from Michy’s. “We only released one song together, so do you think we must have a showcase, Uncle?” He questioned his uncle curiously.

Michy was puzzled by his uncle’s sudden decision. It had been two weeks after they finished recording the song, but in the last two weeks, Willem didn’t mention anything about the showcase.

Michy had two weeks free, but instead of asking him to prepare for the showcase, the boss of Seventius didn’t even tell him about the showcase.

That fact alone had puzzled him.

“It’s necessary, Michy,” Willem answered confidently. “Even if you and Carmen only released one song, it’s good to show your gratitude to your fans through this showcase. Just see it as your gift to your loyal fans.”

Willem was an old player in the entertainment industry, so he knew what was best for the celebrities under his wings.

Therefore, Michy decided to relent, “I understand, Uncle. But, what about the preparation for the showcase? Like, the venue, the ticket, and others?”

Hearing his nephew’s question, Willem smiled before answering, “Actually, I’ve been preparing for the showcase since two weeks ago, Michy. So, you don’t have to worry about the venue and other matters.”

Michy was shocked when he heard the answer. Usually, his uncle told him about every plan beforehand, but this time, his uncle surprised him by planning everything behind his back.

“Stop thinking bad about me, Michy,” Willem spoke again when he saw his nephew frowning. “I just didn’t want to burden you, so I planned to handle everything before letting you know. I want you to have peace in your mind without thinking about this matter.”

Knowing how his uncle was trying to protect him, Michy quickly erased the negative thought in his head before smiling at the uncle. “I’m sorry, Uncle. I didn’t mean to think badly about you,” he said.

Hearing the apology, Willem only chuckled. “It’s okay,” he replied. “It will be a mini showcase for you and Carmen, and the company has chosen some lucky fans to attend the showcase. It won’t be a grand showcase, so probably there will only be less than fifty lucky fans who will get the chance to attend the showcase.”

Less than fifty fans in the showcase. The showcase was indeed the small one.

“But, what about the practice and rehearsal, Dad?” CM suddenly chimed in after she had been silent for a while.

“There will be a preparation for the showcase, and there will be a rehearsal as well. The staff will inform you two of the details,” Willem calmly replied.

It sounded easy for Willem, but Michy and CM were clueless about the plan. Seeing the youths display such a clueless expression, Willem couldn’t help but chuckle again.

“You two don’t have to worry,” Willem spoke again as if he could read what was on the youngsters’ minds. “You just need to follow the rundown, and everything will be alright.”

Indeed. One of the staff had given the two idols the rundown of the showcase, and both idols had read the writings on the paper. However, they were still nervous because it was a sudden showcase for them.

“And you don’t need to worry about the safety too, Michy,” Willem’s voice was heard again, and this time, he stared at his nephew solemnly. “We only chose your loyal fans to attend the showcase, and we have done a background check on them. An incident like the one that happened in Tallie’s Talk won’t ever happen again.”

Willem knew that his nephew was still traumatized by the incident with the anti-fan. That fan managed to attend a big show like ‘Tallie’s Talk,’ and that was like a huge blow for the entertainment industry.

Now Willem couldn’t be reckless and had committed to protect his idols no matter what.

Hearing the reassurance from his uncle, Michy looked more relaxed. “I believe in you, Uncle,” he finally responded. “As far as I remember, I’ve never offended anyone aside from that man, and I’m sure that nothing will happen in the showcase.”

Willem could smile in relief after hearing his nephew’s statement. He was worried that his nephew would be traumatized to the point that he wasn’t ready for a public performance, but the idol’s statement just now successfully erased his worries. Michy’s mentality was stronger than he thought.

“Alright,” Willem spoke again. “I think it’s enough for the discussion now, and Felice and CM can leave my office now.”

Felice and CM were both puzzled by Willem’s statement. The boss of Seventius only dismissed both women but didn’t mention Michy’s name, so they were curious now.

“Do you still want to talk privately with Michy, Sir?” Felice dared herself to ask a question after she became a listener for a while.

The discussion was about the two idols, and she, as their managers, had known about Willem’s plan beforehand. That was why she let Michy and CM discuss with their boss while he remained quiet.

Hearing the question, Willem turned to the girl with a smile before answering, “I will just talk to Michy about his upcoming birthday party.. Nothing is serious, so you don’t have to worry, Felice.”
