SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS-Chapter 826 - 824: COLLABORATION 3

"Um .... But we can’t collaborate when we are such a distance away." She felt conflicted when she said that.

{For now, you can cover their songs. Not only can you promote their songs, but you can also gain fans from their fanbase. Moreover, their agency would be grateful. We will be dealing with them for a long time. What do you think?}

Diamond’s eyes lit up when she heard that. Andrea made sense. It would be a win-win situation.

"Fine. Then help me contact the managerial team for me. Tell them I want to sing the duet song, and if they have other songs, they want to promote that are easy to sing preferably the universal language kind. Let them send the copies. You know what to say, right?"

{Don’t worry, mother. I am pretty good at this!}

A grin formed on her face when she heard that.

"That’s good. I will leave this over to you!" she cheerfully said, as she rose to her feet.

’It’s time to see what Gael is up to. I wonder if I can sneak on a cuddle!’ a sly smile was on her face as she thought about it.

Meanwhile, in Gesalsi, inside the WYCE building, a group of men and women were sitting inside the conference room discussing something serious.

"What do you guys think?"

"Honestly, I don’t see ourselves suffering a loss here. We all have seen the increased boost when she appeared at the concert and during that show. In other words, let’s just give her the green light."

"Moreover, hasn’t our company been working with her? We recently shipped a lot of merchandise for her."

"So, you all think that we should accept?"

"Yep. Let’s do so."

"Instead of promoting just EES, we can also pick a few more songs from both boys’ and girls’ groups. You never know what miracles might come!"

This group of people were discussing the matter of the collaboration Diamond had suggested through Andrea’s email letter.

Although there wasn’t any money to be earned from Diamond, it was a free promotion for them. It was a chance that couldn’t be missed.

So, the team was very decisive and with the pitiful number of teams, the deal was signed with the higher ups.

Once that was done, the people were busy checking the songs.

"Which songs do you think we should send?"

"In my own opinion, let’s send the least popular ones." Another man proposed as he tapped the desk with a pen.

"Huh! What do you mean?" that surprised his colleagues but the other chuckled as he started explaining.

"It’s no use promoting songs that are already popular. Just take a look. There are a lot of covers already done and challenges. So why bother following the same trend? Moreover, we are talking about Diamond. Whatever she does, her fans just follow. So instead of wasting such precious moments and resources on songs that are doing well. Let’s go for the ones people don’t know."

"But .... I still think that doing popular songs will be better!"

"That’s just my own opinion."

"I think that the least popular is a good choice. In an album, you will find at most two to three popular songs. So why not take this chance to promote other good songs as well?"

After going back and forth, they decided to pick both popular and less popular. Anyway, there wasn’t a restriction on the number of songs that they should pick. In the end, while including the EES group songs, the songs picked reached twenty. As for how many, Diamond would sing. They didn’t know, but they all anticipated the day when she would hold her concert.

While the team was busy with the songs, the EES boy group manager also shared the good news with the members. They were thrilled and filled with anticipation. Although it wasn’t the kind of collaboration they expected, that was better than nothing.

The same news spread to the other artist and their reactions were quite different.

***

Meanwhile, in Athary, two individuals received emails from Andrea. They weren’t sleeping yet.

So, when they saw the emails, they were quite shocked. When the shock passed, they started searching for Diamond straight away and what they found got them thinking.

One of them directly called his manager and narrated the whole story, but the other’s response wasn’t that optimistic.

[I don’t think that there should be a reason why you need to accept. You aren’t even earning a single cent from the whole thing. I think that she is trying to use you. She is an internet celebrity, after all. If she was so talented, why haven’t we heard her songs?]

When the artist heard that, he felt that his manager’s words made sense. So, after getting convinced, he replied to Andrea and politely turned down the collaboration opportunity.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the other artist didn’t need to consult anyone about the matter. She was so excited and giddy after finding information on Diamond.

Although she didn’t follow many internet celebrities, she knew about her. Diamond’s song ’SHINING STAR’ was her favorite currently.

It made her recall the love she had when she started her singing career. When others were clamoring and dissuading her from starting her singing career. It was the fans who kept her going. It’s been a decade since she started singing. Although she wasn’t that popular, she was surviving.

To think that Diamond, who had fans who were several folds than hers, wanted to sing her songs. How could she not be happy?

Without any further delay, she hurriedly replied to the email and gave Diamond access to sing any of her songs without any pressure.

She even decided on the spot to support and watch the broadcast when the day came. If possible, then perhaps get a ticket to the concert. Who knows if her destiny would change on that day?

*****

On Diamond’s side, she didn’t have a single clue about the matter since she was busy tempting Gael to the fullest, but the young man did his best to suppress his desire.

She only learnt about the matter the next day but before that. Once she woke up, she lovingly looked at the young man sleeping next to her and sighed with satisfaction.

She had succeeded in sleeping in Gael’s room. Stole several kisses and a cuddle. But the young man didn’t even try anything after that but clamored in her ears with a hoarse voice, "Just to be safe. Why don’t we get tested? I want you to be intimate with me while being certain that I won’t bring any harm to you!"

How could she not feel warm and give in to such touching remarks?

Although she knew that it was unnecessary, considering that she wouldn’t get sick easily because of her physique. Not everyone knew that. Besides, knowing her partner’s status felt like something that she should do. Moreover, that seemed more like Gael showing her trust and proving his innocence to her.

So, before they went to sleep, she agreed to visit the clinic tomorrow since on this day, she had a sports event to go to.

It was unfortunate that Gael couldn’t join her since he had some urgent work he needed to complete.

Diamond admired her lover for a while before sneakily climbing down from the bed without disturbing him.

She left the bedroom and went upstairs to her bedroom.

[Ding! Do you want to sign in?]

’Sing in!’ it’s been a while, so why not?

[Ding! You have been rewarded with a peach fruit wine recipe.]

"Oh!" her brows rose in surprise when she heard that. A smile blossomed on her face at learning about that. "Hehe, this reward I like. I can add it to the menu when the restaurant opens."

At the thought of opening the restaurant in the future. She felt giddy.

Diamond claimed the reward and took a look at the wine recipe. Didn’t see any complicated or scarce ingredients and sighed with relief.

She stacked the recipe on top of others before continuing with her morning chores.

She went on a morning jog and when she was bathing, a voice rang in her mind, nearly startling her in the process.

"Damn you!" she hissed as wiped water from her face while listening to the voice.

[Ding! Supporting system online.]

It’s been ages since she heard from this system. In fact, she nearly forgot that it existed and yet, on this day, it reappeared. She couldn’t help but wonder what it wanted from her.

[Ding! A mission has been issued!]

When she heard that, her eyes widened in surprise.

’A mission. Like for real?’ it felt surreal for her. Nonetheless, she quickly gathered herself and continued to listen to the supporting system.

[The host should acquire a special dagger for the incoming mission at all costs. After acquiring it, the host must keep it safely. It will be useful for incoming missions.]

After that was said, a picture of the dagger was sent and Diamond blinked her eyes repeatedly, stunned by what she was seeing.

[It’s called the dagger of suffering. A cursed relic. But don’t worry, the host won’t be affected by the dagger since the curse isn’t directed at you!]

When she heard that, Diamond’s curiosity towards the dagger became intense.

Who was cursed?
