Chapter 273
When Grayson saw Catherine, he felt a bit nervous, and his hands holding the microphone were sweaty.
“Boss, why are you here?”
Catherine didn’t speak, and her eyes looked cold. She glanced in the direction behind Grayson. Grayson immediately understood Catherine’s meaning. “Boss, leave it to me!”
After saying that, Grayson turned to face his fans with a very serious expression. Grayson, who was known for his gentleness, suddenly appeared so serious, which scared his fans.
These fans instinctively took a step back. Especially the fan leader, who was panicking, began to feel her feet trembling. Grayson said in an unusually serious tone, his gaze cold and his voice deep and terrifying, “Who said that Catherine is a fake? Step forward!”
This time, Grayson didn’t need to explain anything. Judging from his attitude, it was clear that Catherine’s identity was real. The fans all turned pale, not even daring to speak.
However, Grayson had no intention of stopping. He continued in a gloomy tone, “The claim that Catherine is my exclusive music teacher is incorrect!”
Everyone was dumbfounded. Just a second ago, Grayson was defending Catherine. But why was he now denying her identity as his exclusive music teacher? Could there be a twist in the situation?
The girl in pink couldn’t wait to speak up when she heard this. Judging from her assertive expression, she was afraid that others wouldn’t know how much she was looking forward to it.
“Now that Grayson has told you that Catherine is not his exclusive music teacher, shouldn’t you all apologize to us?”
Yesenia and the others were a bit panicked, not knowing what Grayson meant by this. Grayson and Catherine were good friends, weren’t they? Why wasn’t he speaking up for her?
Yesenia stole a glance at Catherine and made up her mind to protect her. But she didn’t expect that while she was anxious, Catherine remained calm and completely unaffected.
Bryan felt worried after hearing Grayson’s words, so he wanted to discuss strategies with Ronin. But Ronin just stood there confidently with a sarcastic smile on his face.
Although Bryan didn’t know what Ronin was planning, seeing Ronin’s expression made him feel relieved. He knew that Ronin cared about Catherine more than anyone else. If Ronin could remain so calm, it meant that Catherine would be fine.
Grayson looked at the girl shouting happily in front of him, his eyes filled with anger and extreme displeasure.
“So, it was you causing trouble all along,” he said in a cold and deep voice, exuding a chilling dominance. The girl in pink didn’t realize that Grayson was referring to her and still had a smug expression on her face. It wasn’t until the girl next to her pulled her hand forcefully that she realized it.
When she looked up, she met Grayson’s icy and furious gaze. She was frightened and started to stutter, “Grayson, why are you looking at me like that?”
“Why? Then, how should I look at you? I despise people who sow discord and create chaos the most. If it weren’t for you today, there wouldn’t be such chaos.” Grayson’s voice was cold, like a sharp sword, instantly piercing through the girl’s heart.
Grayson pressed on, his face covered in a layer of icy frost. “You defamed my idol and ruined my concert. How should I treat you?”
“I, I…” The girl in pink kept stepping back, her face turning red. Finally, she managed to say, “But you said she’s not your exclusive music teacher, right? She lied! So, we can expose her!”
In response to her questioning, Grayson chuckled coldly. “You’re right. She is indeed not my exclusive music teacher.”
Grayson paused for a moment, then spoke with utmost seriousness.” Because I am not qualified yet. Catherine’s musical talent is unquestionable. She is my idol, someone I have always admired. Just like how you all see me as an idol, I also have an idol, and that is Catherine!”
It turned out that it wasn’t that Grayson didn’t want to acknowledge Catherine’s identity, but rather that Catherine was beyond his reach.
The surrounding fans were shocked. They never expected their idol to admire someone else so much. Facing the amazed and inquisitive gazes of the crowd, Catherine stood expressionless, exuding an air of elegance and aloofness.
Grayson immediately arranged for security to escort the girl in pink and her companions out of the venue. As they were leaving, Grayson signaled to the security guard, who nodded in response. The fan lead turned pale with fear and stayed motionless among the crowd of fans.
No one expected Grayson to be so domineering for Catherine. After all, for celebrities, fans were their most important support. Offending them could potentially ruin all their efforts overnight.
The girl in pink was directly kicked out of the venue, and everyone thought that the situation had calmed down. However, Grayson walked straight toward the fan lead.
He stared coldly at her, his voice low and authoritative as he said, “I know you. Thank you for your support all these years, but today, you must apologize to Catherine.”
The fan lead was excited about Grayson’s “I know you” remark. Although Grayson looked extremely serious, she was charmed by his intimidating look. Realizing her mistake, the fan lead immediately began apologizing to Catherine.
“Miss Swann, I’m sorry. I believed the rumors and misunderstood you. Please don’t blame me! I’m sorry!”
The girl’s attitude was sincere, and it wasn’t her who caused trouble earlier, so Catherine decided not to hold a grudge, Catherine glanced at Grayson and softly said, “Go ahead!”
Without hesitation, Grayson responded, “Okay!”
He didn’t even have time to fix his makeup properly before returning to the stage and instructing the band to start playing.
After finishing a song, the audience was enraptured by the performance. Holding the microphone, Grayson thanked the fans for their support before his gaze settled on one spot. His deep and resonant voice reverberated throughout the concert hall, captivating everyone who heard it.
“I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to my idol. Since I was 13 years old, she has been my idol. For so many years, because of her humility, I haven’t been able to publicly express my gratitude to her.
“Today, I finally get the chance to express my gratitude, and I feel honored and extremely excited about it.
“Catherine, thank you for your trust and support all these years!” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Without you, I can’t get where I am today.”
The fans’ voices were almost hoarse from cheering. No one expected Grayson to be so bold and publicly express his gratitude to Catherine on stage. People’s gaze turned to Catherine. They wondered what her
reaction would be…
