Chapter 641

Elliot picked up right away, and Leo’s voice practically exploded through the phone. “Elliot, are you serious? Melody Mastro actually wrote a song for you? Are you messing with me? I get back from a business trip and this is the news you hit me with?”
Elliot let out a smug little hum. “Why would I lie? I already told the company.”
Leo was practically shouting, he was so hyped. “No way, that’s amazing! How did you convince that stubborn diva?”
Lydia raised an eyebrow. Stubborn diva?
The room was so quiet that even though she and Connor were sitting off to the side, they could hear every word Leo was saying.
Elliot wasn’t having it. “Who are you calling a stubborn diva?”
Leo had tried to work with Melody Mastro so many times over the years, and every single time she’d turned him down flat. He was always complaining to Elliot that she was impossible, but Elliot had never snapped at him like this before.
“Alright, alright, my bad,” Leo backpedaled. “As long as she’s writing for you, I swear I’ll drop it.”
Lydia’s eyebrow went up even higher. So, Leo had been complaining about her for ages? And Elliot had just let it slide?
Elliot wanted to protest. He had never said anything. It was all Leo.
“If that’s it, I’m hanging up,” Elliot said. He really didn’t want to keep talking. If he let
Leo keep going, Leo would be digging more holes for him to jump into.
“Wait, hold up! One more thing!” Leo yelled before Elliot could end the call.
Already annoyed, Elliot grumbled, “What now?”
“I heard Lorelei agreed to perform at your concert?”
Elliot’s chin went even higher. “Yep. It’s gonna be epic.”
Leo laughed. “I knew it. With your looks, how could she not be swayed? See? She said yes. And honestly, having her at your show is going to boost her fame too!”
Lydia blinked. Did she hear that right?
Elliot wanted to reach through the phone and throttle Leo. For someone usually so sharp, he was really losing it today. Orıginal content can be found at.net
“What are you even talking about? Lorelei is my sister. Swayed by my looks? Give me a break. She’s a superstar in her own right, she doesn’t need me to boost her career. We’re the ones who need hepta
make the concert a bigger deal.”
He was so worked up that he blurted out the truth. Lydia was Lorelei. Leo’s nonsense was just too much.
On the other end, Leo went silent. After a long pause, he finally shrieked, “Wait, what? Lorelei’s your sister? Which sister? Like, your real sister?”
Elliot froze. He hadn’t meant to spill. What now? Was Lydia going to kill him? Was she going to bail on his concert? Was she going to think he couldn’t be trusted?
Leo wasn’t the only one shocked. Connor just stared at Lydia, stunned.
Lorelei?
He didn’t follow celebrities, but everyone knew Lorelei. She was a legend Even the Jefferson Group, with all its power, had tried and failed to sign her. The rejection was famous
He never would’ve guessed Lorelei was actually Lydia.
Lydia noticed his stare and smiled. “Have you seen enough?”
Connor was honest. “Never.”
Lydia just shook her head.
While Elliot was still silent, Leo picked up on the woman’s voice and got even more excited. “Elliot! Is she
really your sister? Are you with her tight now? Hurry up and introduce mel”
