Ishikawa Ame: What do you think about this plan then?
Cindy: Sounds good to me. I need to discuss it with my colleague then I can finalize it.
Ishikawa Ame: Yes it will be better to carry this out any further when he is present.
Cindy: Yes. Okay then Miss Ishikawa, we'll take our leave now. Hope we can happily cooperate in future.
Ishikawa Ame: I hope so too. Thank you for coming here Mr. Smith, I was honored to meet you.
Matthew: My pleasure Miss.

Cindy and Matthew got in the car.
Cindy: Why did they change the plan so suddenly? Initially, Boss said it's just an interview.
Matthew: Well, maybe YL records found your company better than they thought.
Cindy: Probably, but now I'll have to work with Alex.
Matthew: Hm.
Cindy looked out the window, "Well, at least I got a new project to work on".

Mark: I'm really sorry for the wait, Miss Lawrence.
Isabella: oh, no problem. I can understand you're mostly busy.
Mark: Thank you for understanding, please have a seat.
Isabella Lawrence, older sister of Emilia Love, is founder of YL records. Even though she controls one of the major label in the entertainment industry, no one really knows much about her as she tends to stay incognito for her socially awkward nature.
Isabella: Well Mr.Shepherd, as you know I don't quite take much part in meetings and public conferences, you probably get it by now how significant this deal is.
Mark: Yes, I did. I'm actually surprised seeing you here in person.
Isabella: I've come here in person because we didn't quite plan to release it on the day it was released.
Mark: ?
Isabella leaned on her chair crossing her legs, "My sister released it early saying someone threatened her that they will leak the album".
Mark: !!
Isabella: We've already released it without any promotion but we had lot of plans for this album and I quite like your entertainment channel and magazine.
Mark: Well, I was surprised when suddenly Peter passed the message that it won't be just an interview. So, what's the plan?
Isabella: No one knows about the plan I'm going to tell you now. Not even Emilia and her Manager Miss Ishikawa. I know the person you assigned to be Emilia's interviewer met Miss Ishikawa today. But what they are doing is totally different.
Mark: I see.
Isabella: I've looked into the employees of your company, hope it won't be a bother to you.
Mark: Not at all.
Isabella: I've already decided the person who will be in-charge.

Melissa fell on her knees, sweat dripping from her face and her eyes filled with fear. Dylan gave a wicked smirk and sat by her side, "I know how hard it is for you, but if you don't do it on your own, your most precious thing will be destroyed by me".
Melissa clenched her teeth gripping her clothes tightly in anger. He leaned forward and kissed on her head and whispered in her ears, "You know I love you sweety and this is for your best too".
Melissa: NO! WHY!? Why are you doing this to me...
Dylan grinned, "I'll leave now, take care sweety. Daddy loves you".
Melissa helplessly sat there in the dark room
As she wondered how to get out of this mess after her so-called father left.
