"Did you see the news?"
"Of course! EVE is now in Phoenix!"
"It's been such a crazy month. I can't believe it was just filled with drama from Azure and Phoenix."
"Is it over now? Is EVE finally going to co back?"
"Nope! EVE is no longer EVE. Did you see the latest news?"
It has been a week since EVE left Azure Entertainnt, and everything has been going smoothly ever since. Both Phoenix and Azure Entertainnt had lost plenty of investors in the process, and the two were getting even more stressed as ti passed by.
June had decided to stay in Minjun's room for the night, and as he woke up, he was t with Lena, who appeared like she had aged ten years in the span of a week.
"Hey there," June smiled.
Lena pursed her lips and sarcastically smiled. "Hey," she exclaid in a fake happy tone. "You look nice."
"You look like you've been hit by a truck."
"I wonder why!" Lena exclaid, glaring at him.
"Well, I think this is the right ti to ask for my request," he continued. "Can you get LUNAIRE out of Azure, too?"
Lena's eyeballs nearly fell from their sockets after June made his request."
"You're insane," she said. "You made pay 200 million USD to sever your group's contract, and now, you want to get another group out? Sorry, bud. I'm not doing that. Their contracts are going to be even more expensive since they have a five-year one and are new to the industry."
"So, unless Azure Entertainnt goes bankrupt or the entire company falls apart, you won't be able to do that."
June placed his fingers under his chin. "Bankrupt, huh? Alright, I'll take that into mind."
Lena narrowed his eyes at him, but June remained neutral. He was happy that EVE was out of the Azure, but he couldn't forget about his sister. She was the reason why he beca an idol in the first place.
He couldn't let i stay in that company!
"By the way," Lena continued. "Didn't you say you were going to show sothing? You said you have a lot more information regarding the entertainnt industry."
"Are you free tonight?" he asked.
Lena pursed her lips before nodding.
"Alright, I'll co here again, and I'll show you."
Lena nodded in agreent, already curious.
"Well, I'm heading out," June said.
Lena nodded as she drank from her coffee. "You're preparing well for your coback, right?" June held out an 'okay' sign.
June was fetched by Marcus before they went to Phoenix Entertainnt.
As June arrived at the practice rooms, he saw that his mbers were already there with huge smiles on their faces. They looked drastically different from when they were still in Azure.
Now that Jay was the CEO, the artists were given more musical freedom, and the work conditions had drastically improved.
"So, can we use the songs for our planned album?" Ren asked.
Jaeyong pursed his lips. "I believe so. Well, at least the songs you've written."
"Fortunately, Ren wrote almost all of the songs for that album, so it won't be a problem," Jaeyong smiled.
"Yeah, it won't be a problem at all!"
Just then, Ren and Akira fought over a water bottle, causing it to fly toward the practice room mirrors. It broke into pieces, and so flew toward June, who was the closest to it. He felt a sharp pain on his eyebrows, causing Casper to scream like a little girl.
The others also began panicking.
The events happened fast. Jisung tripped on his foot and landed on the remote, causing it to turn on. June reached for his eyebrow and saw that there was blood on his fingers.
Then, so familiar music played, causing the mbers to turn silent.
"Our...title track?" Ren muttered under his breath.
The host's face appeared on the screen, a face June had seen more tis than he could count.
"Lei?" Jaeyong exclaid with wide eyes as the famous, handso CEO graced the screen. As much as a lot of people were happy that EVE was now in Phoenix, a considerable number of people also supported Azure Entertainnt...and that was mainly because of Lei.
He has been using the 'pity' route all throughout their dispute, and it was working.
Bright studio lights lit up his face, making his pale skin even more stark under the harsh glow. Behind him were seven gleaming letters-EVE-spelled out in large, glittering white font. The logo was familiar-too familiar, in fact.
It looked just like the logo of Rising Stars, which always beca a hot topic every year.
However, it was strange. Why was their na in such lettering?
June focused back on the TV as their title track faded into the background.
"EVE is incomplete," he started off.
"Seven boys. Seven talents."
"We need to make EVE eight again."
June felt a sense of deja Vu. This felt like when he just transmigrated. The broken glass, the chaos, and everything in between.
"Prepare to witness fierce competition, jaw-dropping performances, and the determination of 100 trainees. Only one will stand beside EVE. So, fasten your seatbelts and get ready for an unforgettable journey! Welco to Completing EVE!"
June could already imagine the flood of comnts from the public.
- Holy crap! Completing EVE?
- Are they going to replace EVE overall?
- But EVE just spoiled in their new live that they're going to have a coback soon.
- The boys can't be EVE anymore?
- Oh crap. What the heck is happening?
- The drama isn't over yet!
- Who will watch this show?
- I will!
- I will, too. I just can't resist it.
-You guys have EVE mbers as your display pictures!
- Can you bla us, though? This is so interesting! Is Joonie already the first mber? Despite it being the first comrcial, Completing EVE has already beco the talk of the town. Indeed, bad publicity was still publicity, and in the end, it had garnered the attention that Lei wanted it to get.
As the scene shifted, the mbers of EVE were speechless to see the partners of Azure for this
specific project.
"ESTEEM? YGG? TOPSTAR? What the heck is this?" Zeth exclaid. "These are all the big entertainnt companies except for Phoenix!"
