Chapter 114
"Am I going to be given up?" Christine sat at Brian's desk, looking him straight in the eye.
Brian sighed and asked his assistant to pass her a cup of coffee: "I don't mean that, just take it easy, time is sensitive now."
"I don't think so." Kristen didn't drink the cup of coffee: "This is my album, and I'm going to release it as planned."
"Why are you arguing about it?" Brian frowned, "I thought you were a smart person."
"You've heard my album." Kristen said evenly, "I just trust my music."
"But you should know that no matter how good an album is, it will fall to the bottom if it is not lucky." Brian didn't understand the point of Christine's entanglement with the release time of this album at this time. It's not that he stopped releasing it, his The meaning is just to postpone it for a year or two, and it won't be too late to post it after this matter fades away.
"So, you still don't trust my music, you think you'll lose everything, don't you?" Kristin Hessel pointed directly at Brian's inner concerns: "I know you're a businessman, but I was with When you sign the contract, that’s not what you’re looking at.”
"What are you trying to say?" Brian frowned.
"I actually don't want to talk to you to this point." Christine lowered her eyes and took out the original contract from her bag: "According to the stipulations in the contract, I have the right to make decisions about my music. will forget."
Brian's eyes suddenly changed. He decided to postpone the release because of Christine's career considerations, but he really didn't expect that Christine would block him in such a way, which annoyed him. He thought they were friend.
"It seems that I really misjudged you before."
"In this case, yes, let's issue it as originally planned. Except for the necessary expenses and resources, don't think about publicity resources. It's already a hole. I need to stop the loss, and I won't continue to invest in this abyss. "
"I understand." Christine stood up. She put away the contract and turned to leave. When she reached the door, she stopped and said softly, "I'm sorry, Brian."
After all, she left his office.
Christine understands that from the moment she takes out the contract, her cooperative relationship with Brian will be different from the past, and they may never be able to return to the relationship of friends, but she urgently needs a hope to bring her out of this predicament.
Otherwise, she thought she would go crazy.
------------------
Kristen's album came out on schedule.
She didn't have any plans for publicity, radio performances, etc., just stayed at home and stared at the ranking list over and over again, almost staring at the screen with a hole.
Yet the ending couldn't have been more bleak.
Top scorer "Goodbyes" has been in decline since her scandal broke, plummeting into the mid-twenties on the Billboard singles chart.
The other singles were basically wiped out, and most of them didn't even enter the singles charts, and they were directly out of [-].There are also only a few singles with other musicians hovering around the bottom of the charts.
Except for "Goodbyes" in the first week, "Genius" ranked No.70, "SunInOurEyes" ranked No.80, "LaLaLand" ranked No.90, and other singles were not on the list.
If it was changed in the last century, this result is actually not too bad, but at this time, compared with the brilliant results of Christine's first album, it is really a world of difference.
Not to mention the sales of the album, which is extremely low.
The media immediately activated the group mocking skills.
[Christine Heisel's new album "13" has poor results and sales are shocking! 】
The same is true of online reviews. Everyone said that Christine is a shooting star in the music industry. No matter how high and legendary her starting point is, she will flop to the point where everyone is surprised.
Mariah Carey looked at the comments on the Internet, gave the tablet to the assistant with satisfaction, and ordered: "Go ahead."
Catherine was swiping her phone in the rehearsal room, her manager stood beside her and said, "You don't need to read these anymore, leave them to us to deal with."
In the high-level office of CAA, a figure is sitting on the boss chair drinking red wine, playing classical music leisurely, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, obviously in a very good mood.
……
Christine closed the tablet, closed her eyes and fell on the bed.
A doorbell rang.
It must be either a paparazzi or a passer-by looking for trouble.
During this period of time, she had people knocking on the door almost every day, because some time ago, the security team at home was cut because of collecting money, and now she is really troubled by it.
Christine put the pillow on her head and covered her ears irritably, but she could still faintly hear the doorbell.
She sat up abruptly, walked to the door and looked at the security camera.
How is he?
Christine looked at the tall boy wearing a peaked cap that appeared on the screen, and quickly opened the door for him.
"Sean!" Christine was a little happy when she saw Shawn Mendes coming in from the door: "Why are you here?"
"Come and see you." Sean took off his hat and put it aside: "Look what I brought?"
Christine looked at the case of beer in his hand and couldn't help sighing, "You still understand me."
"I already guessed that this is what you need most now." Sean smiled, took out two cans of beer, opened them and gave them to Christine.
Christine took a sip into her mouth suddenly, feeling the unique coldness of beer slipping from her throat to her stomach, her eyes lit up: "It's still ice!"
Xiao En said with a smile: "There are ice cubes in the box that have been kept cold."
"No wonder." Christine nodded, and then went to the kitchen to get some snacks.
Watching Christine busy, Sean also sat on the sofa, turned on the TV with the remote control, and found the replay of "Game of Thrones" that Christine likes to watch the most.
Then he raised his hand and was about to drink the beer in his hand, but was stopped by Christine who had just come out of the kitchen in a hurry: "Eh? I didn't forget, you are not yet 21 years old!"
Sean reluctantly put down the beer in his hand. Although the law stipulates this, at his age, who really hasn't drunk alcohol?
"You are really crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. It's a pity that I brought a drink to see you." Sean said regretfully, looking at the beer that Christine snatched.
Christine sat down happily drinking the snatched beer: "There is juice in the refrigerator, children should drink this, oh yes, there is also milk."
Sean rolled his eyes: "Are you saying I'm gone again?"
"Hey, don't mind." Christine quickly grabbed him: "Okay, okay, I'll get you some soda, it's about the same anyway, it's okay, right?"
Sean didn't really want to leave, so he simply sat down and put on a boss pose: "Then you go."
It was really funny to put on this expression on his immature face, and Christine couldn't help but pinch him in the face despite his resistance, and then went to the kitchen to get a soda with a smile.
Sean looked at her back and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, seeing that Christine seemed to be in good condition.
After Christine brought out the Coke for him, the two snuggled up on the sofa and watched "Game of Thrones" all afternoon, and Christine was a little sleepy after drinking it.
Sean saw that her eyelids were starting to fight, and he simply leaned her head on his shoulder, and then lowered the volume of the TV.
"Don't drink while I'm getting dizzy now, okay?" Christine kept her eyes closed and muttered nonchalantly.
Sean rolled his eyes again: "Understood, I don't drink anything, that's fine."
Christine nodded in a daze, then fell asleep.
Seeing that she seemed to be really asleep, he took off the cover-up on his face. He gently took a pillow, and then laid Christine flat on the sofa, letting her find a comfortable position. Only then did she calm down and take a good look at her sleeping face.
And only when she is asleep, like an angel.
He looked at the dark circles under Christine's eyes and sighed.
Obviously he is the young one, but why is this person so worrying?
And I clearly made up my mind to take a step back and keep a distance to be friends, but why can't I control my heart?
As soon as the news broke out, he couldn't sit still anymore, and it has been delayed until now because of repeated orders from his agent and parents to stop him, but after seeing Christine for real, he found that he really couldn't do it with Christine. She becomes friends.
He doesn't know when he fell in love with this woman whose life is full of complexities and contradictions. He only knows that he likes to look at her, sometimes looking at her photos, thinking that the conversation between the two of them can't help Smile out.
He knew that Kristen only saw him as a closer brother because of his age, but he really wanted to look her in the eye and tell her seriously that he never thought of her as his sister.
What does age matter?
Why couldn't she see herself as a man, not a boy?
Even if she was looking for someone for a one-night stand, how could she be looking for such a dangerous stranger instead of him?
Thinking of this, Sean sat down on the carpet in front of the sofa where Christine was sleeping with some annoyance. Looking at Christine's sleeping face, he moved his fingers.
Then, he kept beating his heart and moved closer to her face.
Seeing her long and curly eyelashes up close, Sean's heart beat fast.
Her eyebrows and eyes are really pretty.
Unable to bear it, he dropped a light kiss on her eyelid, and then he raised his head abruptly to distance himself, for fear of waking her up.
Fortunately, she is still in a deep sleep.
Sean breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw Christine's pink lips moistened by beer, and the slightly thick lips bulged upwards in a sexy arc.
He bowed his head and kissed her as if fascinated.
The first taste of her lips already made him unable to control himself, and he couldn't help deepening the kiss.
Christine only felt that she had a very real dream.
In the dream, there seemed to be a large dog that kept licking her face, especially her lips, while she was asleep, and gnawed her lips like sausages. She pushed it away angrily, and the dog The big dog seemed to be frightened, and immediately jumped away.
After chasing away the large dog, Christine finally felt relieved and went back to her big sleep.
