The Demon’s Angelic Love - Chapter 147
Gareen Hudson was the best choreographer in the country. His profession before he became a choreographer was a ballet dancer, and he had won a lot of famous competitions in the world
But, because of a reason that almost caused him to get depressed, he decided to retire from his profession, and he learned modern dance instead. He had the talents, and he was hired to teach the students in an art school before Seventius noticed his talents.
After discussing with the representative of the company, he then decided to sign a contract under Seventius and became an exclusive choreographer for Seventius.
He was a well-known ballet dancer until eight years ago, and around six years ago, his reputation as the best choreographer started spreading around the country after he joined Seventius.
He somehow was able to master ballet, modern dance, and even traditional dance in a short period. And that was why the people in the country called him the dance prodigy.
He was only 34-year-old, and his retirement when he was still 26-year-old surprised lots of people. He was still young back then, but his continuous injury forced him to retire at such a young age.
Thankfully, the former boss of Seventius didn’t want to give up on his talent and gave him the position of the choreographer in the company instead. The former boss of Seventius had saved his career, and that was why Gareen was so loyal to work for Seventius even if other companies offered bigger salaries than what he got from Seventius.
The former boss of Seventius who had saved him was Michy’s adoptive father, and that was why Michy became Gareen’s apprentice since the idol’s trainee days.
Michy always believed that it was just his luck that brought him to be the prodigy’s apprentice, but the prodigy always said that Michy’s exceptional talents were the ones that brought them together.
Today was the first time the teacher-apprentice pair saw each other again after being separated for a while. Gareen had been on his honeymoon trip with his wife for two months, and today, the man finally came back to his hometown.
It could be said that Gareen was no longer at his prime age as a dancer, but he was still charming despite the not-so-young age. The man dyed his shoulder-length hair peach two months ago, and it gave him a young impression once again.
He was also tall, almost as tall as Azren, and his body was lean and fit. Some people probably wouldn’t believe that his age was already 30s.
“Our boss could be heartless sometimes,” Felice suddenly chimed in. “Gareen just arrived at this country again, but our boss had already ordered him around to make a choreography for Michy and Carmen. And to make it worse, the showcase will be held tomorrow.”
The pink-haired manager looked so stressed as she rubbed her aching temples. Even with only the duet project, it already surprised her, and with the showcase in front of her eyes, she felt that her head was about to explode.
“Do you want me to report you to my father, Felice?” CM replied in a teasing tone, but the tone was enough to put fifty kilograms burden on top of Felice’s head.
“Even if you report Felice to your father, your father won’t do anything to Felice, Carmen,” Michy decided to butt in. “Whether you like it or not, Felice is the best manager in Seventius. She’s still young, but she has so many achievements already. Do you think your father will be willing to let go of such a gem?”
Apparently, Felice was a little touched by Michy’s speech. Even if the male idol uttered the words in a cold tone, Felice knew that the idol had the initiative to shield her from CM’s attack.
Perhaps CM was not serious, but Michy was willing to stand in front of the female manager.
‘I think Michy has changed. He’s more mature now,’ Felice talked to herself while nodding her head.
“But I still don’t understand why Felice decided to hide about the showcase’s plan from me in the last two weeks.”
Or not. Felice just thought that her career would be saved because the male idol came to rescue her, but the next sentence from the idol made her feel guilty.
“Uh, I’m sorry, Michy. Your uncle didn’t want to pressure you with this plan, and he wanted to let you know after everything is ready,” the manager sheepishly explained.
“But, even Carmen didn’t know about the plan, right?” Michy questioned again as he glanced at his cousin.
“Yeah, I didn’t know about the plan before the meeting today,” Carmen butted in.
“It’s because our boss thought that the showcase would only be a mini showcase, so you two only have to present without preparing anything,” the pink-haired manager answered timidly because the two youths were glaring at her.
“Don’t you think that we also have to prepare for the showcase mentally? Even if only fifty fans would come to the showcase, they’re still our fans, and we still have to give the best performance, right? And from the rundown, I also know that the showcase will be broadcast online too,” Michy continued to attack Felice.
“…” And the girl couldn’t respond this time.
The atmosphere became tense all of a sudden, and one of the people couldn’t take it anymore.
“Guys, we don’t have much time, so how about we start practicing now?” It was Gareen who suddenly butted in when he couldn’t wait any longer.
The three people who were involved in the useless discussion turned their heads toward the man and flashed an awkward smile at the man.
Maybe they didn’t even remember that the choreographer was there with them.
“We are sorry, Gareen. We can start practicing now,” Michy was the one who bowed his head to the older man while uttering an apology.
Michy could be a jackass in front of other employees in the company, but he couldn’t treat Gareen the same because Gareen was a close figure to his foster parents.
The man treated him like a younger brother, or perhaps even like a son, so Michy was so respectful towards the man.
Gareen could see Michy’s guilty expression, and he stretched out his hand to ruffle the idol’s silver lock.
“No need to be sorry, Michy. I’m so excited about your showcase, so I will help you to prepare for it for sure,” the older man spoke in a sincere tone, and Michy smiled at him brightly.
“And you are still my cute Michy, right? Even if there was a nasty rumor about you not too long ago, you are still my baby boy, aren’t you?” Gareen suddenly spoke again, but this time, he was glancing at Azren.
Even if the man was not in the country when the public was busy slandering the idol, the man wasn’t clueless about the rumor. And it seemed that the man could recognize Azren as the person in the video with Michy.
Michy and Felice had not introduced Gareen to Azren formally, but perhaps it was not necessary now because the two of them had known each other.
However, Azren looked uncomfortable under the man’s gaze, and he could tell that the man didn’t like him. He didn’t know why, but he got that feeling in his heart.
Azren was no longer clueless about the entertainment industry, especially if it was related to Seventius, and he knew almost all important figures in the company even if it was only their profiles.
He knew about Gareen too, but it was the first time he met the man in person. ‘He doesn’t like me because I was in the video with Michy? Does it mean, he doesn’t like…’
“Am I not your baby boy again if I’m a gay, Gareen?”
It was Michy who suddenly asked the question, and Azren was surprised because the male idol had the same opinion as him.
Yes, Azren thought that Gareen didn’t like him because he was the one who brought the gay rumor to Michy, and Michy suddenly questioned the man using the ‘gay’ word casually.
All people in the room suddenly turned to Michy after the idol uttered an unexpected question. Michy was asking a question with an ‘if’ in the sentence, but four people in the room were still surprised by the question.
Even Azren couldn’t stop himself from widening his green eyes when he heard the question. He had confirmed that Michy’s relationship with Elias wasn’t like what he thought, and he had corrected his mind and had stopped thinking that Michy was gay.
However, when he heard Michy’s question, he began to doubt his theory.
‘Why did Michy suddenly ask the question? And why did his expression look tense and his voice sound grim? And, how will Gareen answer the question?’
Azren was curious, but when he shifted his gaze from might to Gareen, he couldn’t even read the man’s expression.
