Chapter 111 Humiliation


    The sibling duo’s performance on stage had everyonepletely stunned and overflowing with joy. They all wished that Sylvia could join every concert of ke’s, but they knew that was a wishful thinking. Sylvia hadn’t nned toe up and sing. It was ke who insisted repeatedly.


    With no other option, Sylvia agreed toe up and sing a couple of songs before stepping down. What she didn’t expect was that her brother’s fans would be so warm and enthusiastic that after hearing two songs, they even mored for more.


    So, the siblings sang two more songs, again harmonizing perfectly together. Even without any rehearsal and with just acape, their connection was unmistakable. Those two songs, sung without any instrumental backing, sounded even more extraordinary sung by them.


    Sylvia had crafted the lyrics and music specifically for ke, elevating these ssic songs to new heights with their shared rendition.


    After finishing, Sylvia intended to leave the stage, ignoring the fans‘ calls for an encore, What kind of joke would it be to upstage her brother at his own concert?


    Once Sylvia<b>had</b>left, some fans were still grumbling. They<b>had</b>adored ke, but after Sylvia’s spellbinding performance that evening, some were ready to switch idols. Suddenly, ke seemed “just okay‘ inparison. Despite being a global superstar, Sylvia’s abilities as a songwriter,poser, and singer seemed just as impressive. They fancied that if Sylviaunched a singing career, she might evenThis text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    outshine ke.


    In their excitement over Sylvia, the fans had forgotten ke’s own talent. Although Sylvia was the genius behind many of the songs, ke had also created some masterpieces himself. Unfortunately, at the moment, the fans only had eyes for Sylvia, leaving no room for ke<b>.</b>


    But ke wasn’t upset. On the contrary, he was thrilled that his little sister was so well–loved by the fans. Seeing her weed so warmly as she left the stage made him truly happy for her.


    “All right, all right,” ke said after Sylvia’s exit, amusing the crowd. “Thank you for showing so much love for my sister. But let’s not forget, she’s the heir to our family business. If she were to debut as a singer, who would run ourpany? We’d have to take to the streets!”


    It was unusual for ke to joke with the audience, but with Sylvia there, he was full of jest. The crowd was even more eager for Sylvia to stay on stage a bit longer.


    They were used to a very different ke–a bit grumpy with his biting wit, ready to snap at anyone who crossed his path. Only today did they see the softer side he showed towards Sylvia.


    Having shared a light moment/the crowd looked forward to ke’s next set. But instead of continuing the concert, he teased them with news of something else.


    “I’m sure you’ve noticed,” ke continued on stage, “apart from the unique performance we had today with a special<b>guest</b>, there’s someone else who was invited to join<b>us</b><b>.</b>”


    It was then that the<b>fans</b>suddenly remembered. Amidst the excitement of Sylvia’s Impromptu

    performance, they had overlooked the official guest performer of the evening.


    2/2


    The audience was fervently trying to recall who that invited guest was. Some were even scrolling through their phones, but people seated in the front row knew exactly what ke had in mind for today.


    “I knew it,” Miranda chattered excitedly, rubbing her hands together. “Their whole family has a knack for surprises. After that resounding p in the face to Cyril and his folks at the birthday bash, it looks like. Katrina’s set to be the next ‘star‘ of the show. Can’t wait to see what happens!”


    There was an air of anticipation among the crowd. Some fans, having checked their messages, already knew who the expected guest was, and frankly, were a bit resistant to the idea. Although they hadn’t been at Sylvia’s birthday party, they had seen enough online to know about the beef between Sylvia and Katrina.


    And so, when ke was about to announce the official guest, Katrina was nowhere near eager to take the stage. She feared it would be a spectacr embarrassment, vastly worse than thest time. The thought


    alone was unbearable.


    ke didn’t care if she was ready to face it or not; he turned stone–faced.


    “Howe the person who shamelessly insisted oning to my concert won’t step up to the stage? Are you scared because of the wrong you did to my sister? Oh, I must be wrong. Surely someone who could shamelessly lure Cyril wouldn’t be afraid to show their face now!”


    The crowd gasped upon hearing ke’s words–were they really supposed to hear this?


    Katrina, standing offstage, had gone pale. She hadn’t expected ke to dishonor her publicly. Despite her international fame, why was she being treated like this?


    “If I were you,” ke continued, his tone ice–cold, “knowing my connection with Sylvia, I would’ve thought about paying off the penalty fee rather than showing up. You should’ve known that I wouldn’t let you leave here without facing consequences. Consider how you tormented my sister because you’re about to find out how payback feels.”


    ke’s message was crystal clear to everyone: this guest<b>wasn’t</b>invited for honor but for a very public


    humiliation.


    Katrina, close to tears, felt genuinely wronged now–not like earlier, when she had only been faking. She truly hadn’t known about ke and Sylvia’s rtionship, and upon discovering it, she did want to pull out of their agreement but couldn’t afford the astronomicalpensation fee.


    After all, she had begged to be part of this concert–it was not by ke’s invitation. She had hoped to stick around and reap some benefits, but now it was impossible to stay.


    Not only could she not stay, but her reputation was also about to go down the drain.
