Chapter 166: She Had to Keep Going Forward Bravely
Yvonne became a hit.
She became the hottest singer of this world.
A year passed.
This year, she traveled around, busy with national and world tour.
In addition to her early works such as Heroine and Sunspot, she was innovative and willing to take challenges, and her albums were sold better than one after another. There was never a trough along the way to stardom.
Yvonne had lost count of how much money she had made, she only remembered the first time she earned 15 thousand dollars a month, she couldn’t believe that was real.
At that time, the money from her electronic album sales hadn’t been paid out yet, so it could be considered the first bucket of money she ever made.
She couldn’t believe that the 15 thousand dollars weren’t spent, but earned by herself.
Then 30 thousand dollars, 75 thousand dollars, 150 thousand dollars, and even 1.5 million dollars, she didn’t count anymore.
Zachary had specially hired a financial analyst to manage her finances. He also transferred money to her card every month. Now her money was too much to be spent this life, only she worked very hard this year.
But the good thing was that she loved the feeling of being on stage and creating her own value.
Several times, Zachary felt that she was working too hard and wouldn’t let her continue with the concert, but she refused angrily every time.
In the end, it turned out that wherever Yvonne’s concert was held, he would keep her company and travel all over the world with her.
In this life, they even got a marriage certificate.
Now she was not just the "girlfriend of the president of the Leinster Group", but the legally acknowledged Mrs. Leinster.
Those who had mocked her for being a mistress back then now all shut their mouths.
On the backstage of World Tour, Los Angeles.
This was Yvonne’s 52nd concert, and her largest concert by far, with fans of all nationalities from all over the world.
The girl in the mirror was wearing a luxurious red top-class dress with a skirt as long
as 15 feet, just like the most beautiful flower of all time.
Yvonne had already put on her makeup.
Nowadays, the immaturity between her eyebrows had receded a bit and the last bit of baby fat was gone. Her skin was as white as snow, her lips were positively red, and her beauty was blooming glamorously, making people afraid to look straight at her.
"Miss Taylor, you’re so beautiful." Her makeup artist couldn’t help exclaiming.
Yvonne glanced at the time, and it wasn’t long before the concert started.
She looked to the makeup artist in the mirror and pursed her lips to smile, "Where’s Mr. Leinster?"
"I heard someone missed me."
Coincidentally, Zachary had just finished a meeting and arrived in a hurry.
Two black-clad bodyguards pushed the door open for him and in came his magnificent figure, with a large bouquet of flowers in his hand.
When she saw the flowers, her pretty face became instantly stiff.
"I know you don’t like roses, but there is no flower that can illustrate love better than a rose.
"I’ve been seeking for a month and finally picked this kind."
He said, then handed her a large bouquet of pink and blue-edged roses.
"Yvonne Taylor, congratulations on your 52nd concert!"
Her eyes were instantly wet.
<This is... what you gave me.
Are they... real flowers? Why are they in this color? How come I’ve never seen anything like this before?
It’s called Isabella.
This kind of flower has pink petals and blue edges, like an elf of May. In my heart, you are just like it. Neither red rose nor blue rose is worthy of you. Only this pure, beautiful, elegant, and mysterious Isabella is worthy of you in my heart!
...
Isabella...
It’s the first time that Zachary had sent her flowers.
In their real life, he covered a street with flowers for her at the wedding.
They went round and round, in this life and in the past.
The two Zachary of two worlds had different personalities and different destinies.
The only thing that remained unchanged was that both loved her deeply.
Yvonne threw herself into his arms and started to cry.
"Why do you give me flowers like this... Why..."
At this moment, Zachary didn’t know her true thoughts, and frowned slightly when he saw that she was crying sadly, rather than weeping with joy.
"You don’t like them? Then I’ll throw them away and will never give you flowers again. Don’t cry..."
"No..."
It’s not true.
On the contrary, it was her favorite flower.
In fact, no matter they’re red roses, yellow roses, or white roses. Whether they’re 999 or 1, even if they’re wilted and withered, she liked them all as long as they were from him.
It’s just...’
It had been a year since she began to get used to living in this life.
Isabella’s appearance suddenly reminded her of the past and another world.
In another world, a real Zachary was still waiting for her in agony.
It had been a year, a whole year.
It had been a year since she became a vegetable.
<Dad, Mom, Zachary, are you all right?
I’ll be back...
Very soon...>
"Yvonne?"
A voice interrupted her thoughts.
She subconsciously looked up.
For a moment, she saw Zachary looking at her with loving eyes.
"I’m sorry I upset you."
Yvonne was silent, but her tears was flowing down even more violently.
Her heart was ripped as if it were gripped tightly by a hand.
"It’s not your fault..."
"Yvonne, it’s time to go on the stage." The agent said with a smile, who was a very kind lady in her thirties. Zachary hired her in person and could be considered as her boss, so she was also very polite to Yvonne.
The make-up artist immediately repaired her make-up, "Yes, Miss Taylor, Mr. Leinster has always been treating you well, you can’t cry too hard. There are so many fans waiting for you later!"
"Yes," Yvonne dried her eyes, "I can’t cry..."
She couldn’t cry, and she couldn’t stop.
She had to keep going forward bravely, always.
If she wanted to gain something, she’s bound to lose something.
...
The spotlight was turned on.
Yvonne was standing on a pedestal.
Then the pedestal rose slowly
up to the stage.
As she slowly rose from the middle of the stage, one hundred thousand audience burst into thunderous applause on the spot!
The red glow sticks that belonged to her spread to the edges like a sea of red.
Yvonne started with a signature song Heroine, followed by Sunspot.
Then the songs that made her way to a diva:
Reeds in the Clouds, Love at First Sight, Hot...
One song is more energetic than another, and the atmosphere was getting more and more intense.
At the end, the fans cheered "encore" during the curtain call.
No one could bear to see this dream-like night end like this and asked Yvonne to sing another song.
This evening, she set the highest record of female star encore in this world! Eventually, the spotlight went out.
Only the woman in the red dress remained on the stage.
After a year of experience, she’s no longer the young girl who just left school, but had transformed completely into a gorgeous top-notch diva!
Yvonne clutched the microphone and finally, one hundred thousand audience fell silent.
"The next song I’m going to sing, it’s not my song.
"It’s a song that I’ve never sung in public before, but I really, really like it.
"I will sing it to you who are far away, before my eyes and who love me most! "Thank you!"
After saying that, the accompaniment sounded.
Losing him was blue, like I’ve never known. Missing him was dark gray, all alone.
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met.
’Cause loving him was red. Yeah yeah red. We’re burning red.
...
She sang with her heart as the crowd lit up a red sea for her!
In the dark night, the romance under the sky transcended the power of all words.
On the backstage.
Zachary stood behind her at the spot closest to her, holding up the dark sky of this life for her.
On the stage.
She gripped the microphone in her hand,
thinking of her parents, children and Zachary far away,
as well as the Zachary who was around now, in this life...
She sang with her heart to one hundred thousand fans, to everyone on the spot, and to her loved ones in that world.
Hope they could hear it too...
Finally, the song was over.
Many people in the audience shed tears. None of them was willing to accept the fact that the concert was over.
"Yvonne Taylor, we love you!"
"We love you! We love you!"
"Yvonne, 52! 52! 52!"
Then the audience shouted out that number together.
Yvonne knew that this was the way that the fans were celebrating her 52nd concert. "Thank you all!!!"
Her voice was echoing in every corner of the scene.
Touched to tears, she bowed deeply for the one hundred thousand people in front of her!
She loved this career in this life and was grateful to everyone who had been supporting her.
She maintained her bow and didn’t get up for a long time.
Just then, glorious fireworks burst out in the sky and half of the night sky was lit up like dawn.
This night was legendary.
However, Yvonne didn’t expect that in this life, she could only make it to her 52nd
concert before her career as a diva came to an abrupt end.
This was also the last time that Zachary heard her sing in this life.
The concert ended in a roaring cheer.
The lights dimmed and the stage began to descend.
The crowd was fondly watching Yvonne leave their sight. And the moment she left the stage, she suddenly blacked out behind the stage!
"Yvonne, you are amazing! That last song even made me..."
Her agent came over in ecstasy, only to see her on the ground and turned pale in an instant!
"Yvonne, Yvonne? What’s wrong with you? Quick! Someone help!!!" Zachary also walked over at this time, and he was holding a ring in his hand.
He was supposed to propose to her today. Although they got their marriage certificate, they hadn’t had time for the wedding yet.
Because her schedule was full as soon as Sunspot came out a year ago, and she felt sorry for not having time to have a wedding.
She had promised to him that she would find some time to rest after finishing 52 concerts. Zachary then thought of taking this time to propose to her and travel around the world.
But just then, he saw her fall on the ground. Though she’s still in her red dress, her eyes closed firmly.
Zachary ran towards her without a second thought.
The ring rolled to the ground without anyone noticing.
It sent out a solitary radiant glow.
