“There's nothing wrong with the track-since you composed it with Tristan’s style in mind, why not just add it to
the album? What do you think?”
“If Tristan’s willing to sing it, I'd be more than happy.” The producer, a bit particular himself, grinned.
“My brother's track is always welcome. It’s been, what, a year since our last collaboration?”
“Yeah, this one was originally custom-made for you. But Candace said she wanted
it as the lead single on Fitch's new album, so | rewrote it for him.”
“Well, guess what's meant to be mine will always find its way back to me.”
That got a laugh out of the producer, his eyes crinkling.
“All right, that settles it. Tristan, take the demo and the sheet music next door to practice. We'll start recording in
an hour-sound good?”
“Perfect.” Tristan didn’t waste a minute. At their level, not only was their talent unquestioned, but every second
was literally worth money. Deadlines were deadlines-no matter how tough, you gave it everything.
Maybe other companies played it loose, but at A&C Entertainment, slacking off wasn’t tolerated. If an artist ever
stepped out of line, they'd get a warning; ignore it, and your contract was terminated-no fuss, no .
Fans even made a leaderboard, joking that A&C Entertainment had the most “scandal-proof” artists in the
business. After all, if anyone was about to blow up their reputation, A&C would drop them first.

“Sure.”
Two hours later, the team gathered in the conference room.
“The new track is almost done, and the choreography’s ready to go,” Alessia said, spinning a pen between her
fingers. “Lillian, coordinate the schedule and make sure Tristan has tfor rehearsal. I'll assign another
manager for Liam’s daily stuff, but he’ll still be mainly your responsibility. Is that all right?”
“No problem,” Lillian replied.
“As for your new album,” Alessia continued, turning to Tristan, “the plan is for

write the lead single yourself and co-write the rest with Jason. Sound good?”
“Sounds good.” Liam was still amazed at how fast everything was moving. Watching Alessia command the room,
he felt a strange sense of awe.
“For the next three months, you'll have a dedicated dance coach and music instructor. Besides your regular
classes, there'll be a series of artist training sessions. The schedule’s packed, but can you handle it?”
“I can.”
“One thing, though-if you don’t pass the assessment in three months, your debut will be postponed. A&C doesn’t
let underprepared artists embarrass the company.”
Alessia never softened up, even with her own people. That was how she
commanded so much respect.
“Understood.” Liam straightened, catching her seriousness.
“Good. Lillian, you handle the rest of

“Sure thing.” Jason exchanged a look with Liam-they both knew they weren't
needed for the next part and slipped out without protest.
“Should | leave too?” Tristan asked, half-heartedly, not moving an inch.
“Stay if you want. After all, our next guest is little Tristan.”
Tristan caught the teasing in Alessia’s voice and relaxed even more into his chair. There was no way he’d miss
this.
