BuzzNovel“If there are no objections, the PR Department can start drafting the relevant statements,” Alessia said, her
hands clasped beneath her chin-casual, yet impossible to ignore.
The PR manager nodded and left. Alessia’s gaze shifted to Tristan, who looked unfazed; he’d grown used to these
situations by now, and besides, he'd only gotten dragged into this mess by accident-he couldn't be more fed up.
“Aren’t you cultivating that ‘sharp-tongued’ persona lately?” Alessia asked, almost teasing.
“That makes it sound so calculating,” Tristan shot back, but there wasn’t a hint of annoyance in his tone.
“Lillian, help Tristan get set up for a livestream.”
“Now? What am | supposed to talk about?” Tristan looked genuinely surprised by the sudden directive.
“Whatever you want. Say what's on your mind.”
“You mean just go straight for it?” A wicked glint sparked in Tristan’s eyes, one brow arched in anticipation.
“Exactly. Don’t hold back,” Alessia replied, leaving no room for doubt.
Tristan let out a low whistle and pushed back his chair. “Let's go, my ever-dutiful agent.”

Liam and Alessia’s eyes met across the table. He tried to mask his nerves, but the tension in his jaw betrayed
him.
“Don’t worry. | just wanted to check in on your progress.”
“I've been brainstorming new song ideas with Jason. Things are going pretty well.”
“The company’s rules are non-negotiable, but since Fitch already leaked your existence, we might as well ride
the wave.”
“What do you mean?”
“Sstrategy as Fitch: post videos of yourself performing original songs on social media, then release them on
the official site. The only difference-don’t show your face.”
“Alright. Original songs, right? If it’s just snippets, | can manage.”
“One song a week should be enough to build your following. Vera, work with PR to put together a detailed plan,
and let's move fast while the hype’s still alive.”
“Yes, ma'am,” Vera replied promptly.
“That's all for now. You can take a break, Liam.”
Liam hesitated, looking like he wanted to say something. “Is there something else?” Alessia asked.
