The preparation area behind the stage.
Aidan peeked out and saw the huge crowd, swallowed hard, and then pulled her head back down.
He sat on the sofa, panting, his hands clasped together nervously.
Hela, standing next to her, was casually munching on a Snickers bar, while the table was covered with packaging for high-end snacks.
He didn't seem nervous at all; at first glance, you'd think it was Aidan who was going to act.
"You're not even playing, why are you so nervous?"
Hela ate her chocolate while turning to look at Aidan, who was trembling with nervousness.
"Uh, yeah, sorry, boss, it's because I was afraid MTT would mess up the concert and embarrass you."
Aidan's voice trembled violently, and her tightly clasped hands even began to turn white.
Hela ate the chocolate in her hand in two bites, then took out a chocolate bar and handed it to Aidan.
"Have something to eat."
"Oh, thank you, boss..."
Aidan took the Snickers bar, but due to nervousness, her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't even tear open the packaging.
Hela was watching from the side the whole time, which made Aidan even more nervous, and she almost dropped what she was holding.
Hela couldn't stand it any longer, so she snatched the Snickers bar, tore open the packaging, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Ugh--!"
Aidan's face instantly turned as red as an apple.
The initial tension and unease were completely overshadowed by a sudden feeling of happiness and shyness.
It felt like steam was rising from my head.
"It's time for Miss Hela to make her appearance."
A stylishly dressed makeup artist walked in, saw the chocolate on Hela's lips, and smiled helplessly.
Finally, he took out a tissue and wiped Hela clean.
"Let's go, it's time to go on stage, sir, your robot..."
"It, it will go by itself in a little while."
The makeup artist looked at Aidan, whose face was as red as a monkey's bottom and who was holding a Snickers bar in both hands and could barely speak, with some confusion.
Then she glanced at Hela again, and instantly seemed to understand something, a maternal smile appearing on her lips.
"Miss, please come with me."
She led Hela to the stage, and just as they arrived, the robot MTT appeared in the center of the stage without anyone noticing.
Amid cheers from the audience, Hela and MTT began their spectacular performance.
As Aidan sat backstage, listening to Hela's sweet voice on stage, her emotions gradually calmed down.
He stared at the energy bar in his hand, which he had bitten in half, and for some reason, his expression began to drift off into a daze.
'Am I good enough for the boss? What can I offer her?'
He glanced at the stage again, then slowly lowered his head.
'I'm not as good-looking as the boss right now, I don't know how to communicate with others, and I don't have a proper job.'
They lack social experience and don't understand many things.
He has no academic qualifications, no legal status, and no connections.
And he looks like a petty thug.
Maybe the eldest sister will become a female celebrity someday, and actually, it won't be me who gets signed, but my monster friend.
Thinking this, he touched the scarf around his neck and lowered his head.
At the concert, Tuote, Weier, and Fulan and Hela's alter egos, Xiao Er, were all seated in the audience.
Anyway, the tickets weren't hard to buy, and since I have a connection with Hela, it was easy to get here.
"Wow, Lady Hela is amazing! Her singing is so beautiful."
Weier, arm in arm with Tuote, looked at Hela on the stage with adoration.
The Xiao Er sitting next to me rubbed his nose and revealed a proud smile.
Compared to Weier, who was intently watching the performance, Tuote and Fulan were clearly distracted.
One of the two was looking down at experimental data, while the other was looking around the scene, counting how many people with blond hair there were.
When he counted to 209, he suddenly noticed that one of the blonde women was looking at Hela on the stage with eyes full of hatred.
It was as if Hela had taken something from him.
Fulan immediately became alert, suspecting that the woman might be a survivor of Hela's previous massacre of the city.
He recognized Hela here, which is why he felt such hatred upon seeing Hela.
Fulan narrowed his eyes and looked around at the huge crowd.
He took out his phone and secretly snapped a picture of the woman.
He planned to follow the woman after the concert and then kill her.
This woman was actually Lisa, who had been rejected by Tewa.
If it weren't for Hela's appearance, Lisa herself might have been standing on the stage, glamorous and dazzling.
That's why she showed such hatred towards Hela.
If Fulan knew this reason, he would definitely be speechless and confused for a while.
The concert concluded with a grand finale amidst cheers from the audience.
Hela and the other members of the accompaniment group left the stage.
As soon as she arrived backstage, Tewa excitedly ran up to Hela.
"Miss Hela! You're amazing! This time you did an even better job than last time!"
The results were not only much better than we expected, but they also significantly increased our company's brand awareness!
As he spoke, he took two deep breaths, then pulled out a business card and handed it to Hela.
"And here's some good news for you: you've been spotted by a big director at Newland Film and Television Company, who has invited you to star in a movie."
Although he was only a supporting character, he still had quite a few scenes.
And that's a famous director; if this movie becomes a huge hit, you'll really become a big star."
Hela took the postcard, which featured a middle-aged man with a large belly and East Asia features, wearing sunglasses and a T-shirt.
He has the air of a director at first glance.
"Oh, thank you."
Hela nodded slightly in thanks and prepared to go to the lounge to find Aidan.
But no sooner had he left than Tewa called him back.
"What's wrong?" Hela stopped and turned around.
Tewa pulled out another postcard featuring bars and hotels.
"Because the performance was such a success, we decided to celebrate here."
Miss Hela, you can invite your friends over, just have fun.
Hela looked at the postcard, nodded again, and returned to the lounge.
"Boss."
Upon seeing Hela enter, Aidan gave a somewhat awkward smile.
"Congratulations, boss! You managed to bring the concert to a perfect close..."
'What am I saying! I'm so nervous I can't even speak!'
"Okay, go tell Tuote and the others to come here tonight."
Hela tossed two postcards to Aidan and then collapsed onto the sofa next to Aidan.
"Okay, boss..."
Aidan picked up her phone and began notifying the others.
Hela just lay there quietly, lost in thought. To Hela, it didn't really matter whether she played or not.
After all, I don't have any emotional needs; as long as I have enough to eat, that's enough.
However, I do have my own underlings.
Although one's own underlings would never betray them, the benefits and treatment should still be better.
Taking them out for fun occasionally is a way to help them relax.
