The reason for the price difference was that those ticketers tended to be the scalpers themselves, and if they were allowed to resell, they would do their best to inflate the average ticket price as much as possible.Netizens had already started speculating about the ticket prices, too, having been victim to one too many scalpers before.But while most of them presumed that the tickets would set a new bar in terms of prices, Curtis Autos called for a press conference.And there, journalists posed that exact question to Yolden, to which he answered, "The collab with Ms. Sweet for these twenty concerts is to allow her Oskian fans the opportunity to see her performing live. To avoid scalping, we are applying an entirely new system for selling our tickets."While curious, the journalists were also skeptical.After all, many other concert organizers vowed to end scalping, too, but never really did. If anything, they just did their best to destroy scalpers they weren't friends with and

Claire asked, "Backstage? Can we really get in?""Of course," Charlie replied confidently. "Mr. Mitsui thinks quite highly of me after that Feng Shui consultation, and while Tanya is skeptical, I get the feeling she would like my services, too. And I have Mr. Mitsui's number, so I could just ask him to ask her to get us someplace where we can watch the concert backstage."Claire sighed, shaking her head. "No, forget it. That's too much trouble, and we've already watched one Tanya concert. We don't have to attend every last one of them.Charlie chuckled. "It's no trouble—we are the hosts, and they'd be staying here a few days. We might even be of assistance."Besides, you know Heaven Springs, don't you? It's the best restaurant in Aurous Hill, and Tanya would definitely want to try local specialties during her stay in Aurous Hill. I could even arrange the Diamond Room for her as well as reservations in Shangri-la for her huge concert entourage… It's not too much to ask for a backsta

It was the first time Tanya wasn't sleeping or talking at all, and it left Trevor bemused.What could have led to such a change? Their quarrel just before, or the incident in Tokyo Dome?The incident was resolved in every way thanks to Charlie Wade, and the bounty on Tanya's head had been removed completely.So, why did Tanya still seem affected?That was when a scary thought struck Trevor—could Tanya have fallen for Charlie Wade?But it couldn't be! Charlie was married… or perhaps it was precisely because he was married that her affection would therefore go unrequited, which thus left her depressed?If anything, that truly seemed likely!Still, it hurt him to remember how distant she had been over the last few days.He loved her so much that he could deal with her girly tantrums, childish opinions, and messy personal life.However, he couldn't deal with her having another man in her heart, and a man who was light-years ahead of him in every way…"Hey, babe?" He called out at

A smile appeared on Trevor's face as he asked, "Do you think we should invite Mr. Wade to be our witness if we ever go to the chapel?"Tanya giggled as her tears flowed.Wiping her tears, she said, "I-I'm not sure… But shouldn't you propose first?"Trevor remembered with a start, thrilled as he asked, "Was that a yes?""Not until I see my ten-carat diamond ring," Tanya smiled, shaking her head."Don't worry, babe," Trevor quickly promised. "It's going to be more than ten. I'll be flying over once I'm done with training to propose."Tanya held his gaze, smiling as she nodded. "No guarantees that I'll say yes, though."Trevor nodded, thrilled nonetheless as Tanya was basically accepting his proposal anyway—at this point, he just had to propose in a way that satisfied her.It was the light at the end of the tunnel, after days of apprehension.After all, it was only natural that he would be jealous, if not in denial, if the person he loved worshipped someone else, and he had no id

Charlie chuckled. "It's not too much—more like cutting corners. We're friends with Albert, aren't we? Gotta freeload off him once in a while.""Is that really okay?" Claire quickly asked.Charlie shrugged. "What's not okay about it? He still owes me a favor from when I traveled out of state for a Feng Shui consultation with his friend."Claire sighed in exasperation. "Isn't that the other way around? The way I see it, you're the one who owes him for giving you such a lucrative job…"Charlie chuckled. "That's not quite it. See, Feng Shui consultation is like seeking guidance from the clergy at church. It's not a business transaction, but spiritual assistance. It's the reason why people clearly spend money on a Feng Shui consultation and still call it a favor."So, when Albert's friend asks for a consultation, he's asking Albert for a favor, who in turn asks me for a favor. That way, both Albert and his friend owe me a favor."As Charlie had put it so eloquently, Claire nodded desp
