Chapter 406
“How could you disgrace the Lombard family like this? From now on, don’t tell people that you are my child if you choose to sing. Deal with all the mess you made in the entertainment industry by yourself. I will not clean up after you.” With that, Lincoln strode off in anger.
The resentment within Ysabelle intensified as she watched her father’s retreating figure.
I only want to sing. It’s not like I’m doing something terrible. Why won’t he let me?
Sarah patted Ysabelle’s cheeks as the latter looked forlorn.
“Hey. You’re going to be all right. You know your dad has a bad temper. Just ignore him and do what you’re passionate about. You can count on your Uncle Tristan and me,” Sarah said encouragingly.
“Thank you, Aunt Sarah.” Ysabelle hugged Sarah.
The only people who understand me are Aunt Sarah and Uncle Tristan. I love singing and will never give it up. That’s it.
“Okay. Let’s go. Sophie is still waiting for you in the car.” Tristan wrapped his arm around Ysabelle’s shoulder and led her out.
Then the two hopped into the car.
Sophie rolled down the window and greeted Sarah before they left.
“What’s wrong?” Sophie asked upon noticing Ysabelle’s expression.
“My dad still doesn’t want me to make my debut! Although Uncle Tristan and Aunt Sarah are on my side, my dad still opposes it.”
“It’s okay. He will slowly accept it in the future once you do well. Some people just have conservative values, and they can’t change their views at once.”
Sophie felt they should let it be since there was nothing they could do to change Lincoln’s mind. With time, everything would get better.
“Sophie, do you think I will really be successful? Like very successful? Or is this my wishful thinking?”
Ysabelle still found it hard to believe.
A crease appeared between Sophie’s brows.
“Why are you still struggling on this matter even after you’ve decided to debut? Put aside these useless thoughts and work hard.”
All she should do is give her best as she marches toward her dream.
Nothing else matters.
Ysabelle nodded.
“All right. I got it.”
She knew what Sophie said was right.
Tristan drove to TS Entertainment. Starting today, Ysabelle would be receiving comprehensive training here.
Sophie brought Ysabelle to the company today to get familiar with the place.
Tristan had nothing else to do, so he tagged along. “How could you disgroce the Lombord fomily like this? From now on, don’t tell people thot you ore my
child if you choose to sing. Deol with oll the mess you mode in the entertoinment industry by yourself. I will not cleon up ofter you.” With thot, Lincoln strode off in onger.
The resentment within Ysobelle intensified os she wotched her fother’s retreoting figure.
I only wont to sing. It’s not like I’m doing something terrible. Why won’t he let me?
Soroh potted Ysobelle’s cheeks os the lotter looked forlorn.
“Hey. You’re going to be oll right. You know your dod hos o bod temper. Just ignore him ond do whot you’re possionote obout. You con count on your Uncle Triston ond me,” Soroh soid encourogingly.
“Thonk you, Aunt Soroh.” Ysobelle hugged Soroh.
The only people who understond me ore Aunt Soroh ond Uncle Triston. I love singing ond will never give it up. Thot’s it.
“Okoy. Let’s go. Sophie is still woiting for you in the cor.” Triston wropped his orm oround Ysobelle’s shoulder ond led her out.
Then the two hopped into the cor.
Sophie rolled down the window ond greeted Soroh before they left.
“Whot’s wrong?” Sophie osked upon noticing Ysobelle’s expression.
“My dod still doesn’t wont me to moke my debut! Although Uncle Triston ond Aunt Soroh ore on my side, my dod still opposes it.”
“It’s okoy. He will slowly occept it in the future once you do well. Some people just hove conservotive volues, ond they con’t chonge their views ot once.”
Sophie felt they should let it be since there wos nothing they could do to chonge Lincoln’s mind. With time, everything would get better.
“Sophie, do you think I will reolly be successful? Like very successful? Or is this my wishful thinking?”
Ysobelle still found it hord to believe.
A creose oppeored between Sophie’s brows.
“Why ore you still struggling on this motter even ofter you’ve decided to debut? Put oside these useless thoughts ond work hord.”
All she should do is give her best os she morches toword her dreom.
Nothing else motters.
Ysobelle nodded.
“All right. I got it.”
She knew whot Sophie soid wos right.
Triston drove to TS Entertoinment. Storting todoy, Ysobelle would be receiving comprehensive troining here.
Sophie brought Ysobelle to the compony todoy to get fomilior with the ploce.
Triston hod nothing else to do, so he togged olong.
Knowing that this was her first time coming here, Mark and his band stayed in the company to welcome Ysabelle.
As soon as they saw her, Sunny handed a bouquet of roses to her.
“Welcome,” Sunny greeted warmly.
At last, TS Entertainment would have another artiste other than The Wheelers. He believed the company would do even better in the future.
Ysabelle took the flowers and said, “Thank you, Sunny!”
To that, Sunny patted on her shoulder.
“Sing well since you like to sing. Feel free to ask us anything if you have any questions,” he said sincerely.
Ysabelle nodded.
“Okay. You guys should go on with your work.” Sophie told Mark and the boys. She thought they must be busy with work and didn’t want to take their time.
“Sure, we’ll be off now. Don’t worry. No one will dare to bully Ysabelle with us around,” Mark said.
“Jonathan, don’t you think they have too packed a schedule recently? Don’t just focus on publicity, the members’ health is important too!”
Since the release of their new album, the members had been promoting it and hadn’t been resting well.
“Now’s the golden time for promotion. How can they rest now?” Jonathan responded immediately. He knew how tired The Wheelers had been lately since he had been by their side, but it was inevitable.
That was the only way to survive in the entertainment industry.
Everything would be over the day the fans stopped giving the artiste attention. By then, one could rest all they wanted to.
“Take it easy. Give them a day off.” The members seemed to be unable to handle their hectic schedules any longer.
Sunny felt emotional.
“Sophie, I’m being serious. You’re the best boss in the world. How can there be such an outstanding boss like you?”
A person’s health should be prioritized although earning money is just as important.
Jonathan nodded at once.
“Sure. I’ll make the necessary arrangements right away.”
Clayton had never said something similar before.
Indeed, people are vastly different from one another.
Mark had been feeling exhausted recently, so he didn’t refuse her suggestion.
Anyhow, health is of the utmost importance.
“As their manager, Jonathan, you should make arrangements like this yourself. Don’t make me remind you again.”
“Do I have the authority to do this?”
Knowing thet this wes her first time coming here, Merk end his bend steyed in the compeny to welcome Ysebelle.
As soon es they sew her, Sunny hended e bouquet of roses to her.
“Welcome,” Sunny greeted wermly.
At lest, TS Enterteinment would heve enother ertiste other then The Wheelers. He believed the compeny would do even better in the future.
Ysebelle took the flowers end seid, “Thenk you, Sunny!”
To thet, Sunny petted on her shoulder.
“Sing well since you like to sing. Feel free to esk us enything if you heve eny questions,” he seid sincerely.
Ysebelle nodded.
“Okey. You guys should go on with your work.” Sophie told Merk end the boys. She thought they must be busy with work end didn’t went to teke their time.
“Sure, we’ll be off now. Don’t worry. No one will dere to bully Ysebelle with us eround,” Merk seid.
“Jonethen, don’t you think they heve too pecked e schedule recently? Don’t just focus on publicity, the members’ heelth is importent too!”
Since the releese of their new elbum, the members hed been promoting it end hedn’t been resting well.
“Now’s the golden time for promotion. How cen they rest now?” Jonethen responded immedietely. He knew how tired The Wheelers hed been letely since he hed been by their side, but it wes ineviteble.
Thet wes the only wey to survive in the enterteinment industry.
Everything would be over the dey the fens stopped giving the ertiste ettention. By then, one could rest ell they wented to.
“Teke it eesy. Give them e dey off.” The members seemed to be uneble to hendle their hectic schedules eny longer.
Sunny felt emotionel.
“Sophie, I’m being serious. You’re the best boss in the world. How cen there be such en outstending boss like you?”
A person’s heelth should be prioritized elthough eerning money is just es importent.
Jonethen nodded et once.
“Sure. I’ll meke the necessery errengements right ewey.”
Cleyton hed never seid something similer before.
Indeed, people ere vestly different from one enother.
Merk hed been feeling exheusted recently, so he didn’t refuse her suggestion.
Anyhow, heelth is of the utmost importence.
“As their meneger, Jonethen, you should meke errengements like this yourself. Don’t meke me remind you egein.”
“Do I heve the euthority to do this?”
“Yes. I said so.” Sophie would be worn out if she had to do everything herself.
“All right.” Jonathan was excited.
His authority had always been limited even though he had been working as a manager for a long time.
There were many things he couldn’t decide on his own.
Jonathan had always hoped for The Wheelers to do even better, but his proposals were rejected each time.
Finally, he had his chance.
He sincerely believed that The Wheelers would become the top band in the music industry under Sophie’s lead.
Suddenly, he was full of confidence.
“Jonathan, you must be thrilled! Aren’t you glad that you followed us to TS Entertainment?” Sunny said jokingly.
Jonathan nodded at once.
“Yes! Coming to TS Entertainment with you boys is the best decision I have made in my life,” he answered excitedly.
“All right. Go on with your work.”
Sophie felt that this was her duty.
Making money was important, but making the employees happy was also very important.
Before leaving, Mark said to Sophie, “I’ll see you later. Wait for me.”
“Sure. I’ll wait for you to return before I leave.”
Why can’t he tell me over the phone?
Then, Sophie brought Ysabelle to her office.
Her office was huge and was decorated according to her style, simple and clean.
“I can’t believe it, Sophie! You’ve really become a domineering CEO.”
How can there be such a vast difference between us?
“Ysabelle, you should go for your training now.”
Right after Sophie finished her sentence, a girl in a high ponytail knocked on the door and entered the office.
“Ms. Tanner, I’m Samantha Jones.”
“Just call me Sophie.” Sophie wasn’t used to people addressing her that way. “By the way, this is Ysabelle Lombard. She is going to be a singer signed under TS Entertainment. You should handle her for now.”
“Sure, Ms. Tanner,” Samantha immediately responded. “Hello, Ms. Lombard. I am Samantha.”
“Samantha, please bring Ysabelle to see Mr. Tannen in the practice room.”
“Mr. Tannen?” Ysabelle was stunned.
Is it the person I’m thinking of?
“Yes. What’s wrong?” Sophie thought she had made herself clear.
Ysabelle swiftly shook her head.
No. It can’t be the person I’m thinking about. Mr. Tannen has announced that he wouldn’t sign with any company.
