This Time You Are Mine

Finally, Hyacinth has begun announcing the usernames of the winners of a dinner date with her. She instructs them to reply to her message for them to be part of the group chat where she will post the final instructions. Soon after, she ends the stream with a message to her fans.

"I had a lot of fun with streaming. This is the first time and I got a very good response from all of you. Maybe I"ll do it next time. Keep on supporting the rest of the artists. For the winners wait in the chat room, I"ll be there in a short bit. As for the rest of you, thank you for coming to the watch the stream. See you at SkyMu"s concert and awards night." 

Hyacinth ends her stream with another revelation that she will be present for both culminating nights of SkyMu by the end of the month. This information adds more noise under her name. 

Off camera, Hyacinth is talking with the winners and finalizing their contact information and the requirements to ensure the smooth dinner outing that same night. After their meetings, the fans boast on their social media how they won and are preparing to attend the said event.

There is no doubt that SkyMu is the overall winner for today"s face off. Hyacinth is still on top of the list with two other t.i.tles. Furthermore, even when their videos and shows ended, SkyMu is still on top. People are giving feedback to both companies. 

Critics love Hyacinth"s video and stream while they are not satisfied with Hu0026E"s output. They feel that Hu0026E is too desperate to compete. Through this episode, SkyMu has reached another level which proves that they can compete with a well-known company in the industry. 

As the uproar in the social media continues, Yve and Vince finally arrive at the clinic where Maddie is already waiting outside.

"Mom!" Yve exclaims as she gets off the car.

"Is that my son with you?"

"Yup. He said he wants to come. I forgot to tell you though. I hope you don"t find it uncomfortable." Yve apologizes to Maddie as they enter the clinic.

"Of course! It makes me happy that my son is supporting me." Maddie genuinely smiles. 

After parking the car, Vince soon follows them inside the clinic. They patiently wait for their turn. 

Jenny, on the other hand, is reviewing her lessons for their upcoming major examination. She has her music turned on a high volume. With Steve leaving the country, this is one of the times when she can play loud music while studying. Steve doesn"t like her doing it. She even ordered snacks to be sent to her room. To avoid missing her only brother at times like this, she often does things that she isn"t allowed to.

Speaking of Steve, the man finds himself in the plane and reads their company"s proposal for the bid. He makes some edits on the files and also researches on his compet.i.tors. Most of their compet.i.tors are small and medium companies overseas. However, there is one company which is quite famous for taking up big projects so it"s quite unusual for them to bid. But he didn"t get a sniff a relations.h.i.+p between that company and Vince. He is fully unaware of the result of the face-off as no communication is turned on for him. 

Back to the country, Hyacinth has finished giving instructions to her fans. Her glam team arrives and displays a set of clothes for her to wear. Her manager tells the team to choose the simplest and most comfortable attire. For her make-up, they are doing a simple make-up for her. Hyacinth uploads a picture once her hair and make-up are done exciting her fans. 

Her secretary informs Hyacinth of an interview tomorrow morning with Lester and hands her a list of some of the questions which are to be asked. 

"Who is this Lester?" Hyacinth curiously asked.

"He is the son of the owner of the Spring Newspaper."

"Son? That"s unusual. You also said that Miss Yve informs us of this activity?"

"Yes. This young man is Miss Yve"s cla.s.smate but when I asked around, he"s earned a lot of thumbs up from celebrities and managers." 

"I see. But I do trust Miss Yve on this. She must have screened this person and his intention professionally without minding their relations.h.i.+p." 

"I do think so as well. The more we work with Miss Yve, the more I respect her. She still has a lot of room for improvement and I want to see her growth." 

"Me, too. So this sounds like SkyMu all the way for the both of us?" Hyacinth smirks at her manager.

"As long as she doesn"t change for the worse." 

Then the two ladies laugh. 

As night time falls in the country, Hyacinth leaves her place and heads to the restaurant. The restaurant is under Haru"s chain. It"s serves a wide variety of cuisines and with themed private rooms with interiors featuring China, j.a.pan, America, Spain and other countries. But the public area of the restaurant focuses on nature theme with all the wood design. The ambience makes one feel refreshed and renewed. 

 Sylvan welcomes them with a team of security personnel. 

"Good evening, Miss Hyacinth. Thank you for your hard work this afternoon." Sylvan says as he guides them towards the private room. 

"Good evening, Mr. Sylvan. Thank you also for the publicity. Are they already here?"

"Yes but they"re undergoing an orientation in a different room." 

"I see." Hyacinth smiles and sits down in a chair on the middle of the long table. 

"The food…"

"I have the menu here. You can order now or you can wait for your fans and order together." Sylvan hands her the menu.

"I"m going to order some of my favorite deserts and appetizers." Hyacinth accepts the menu and calls the restaurant staff. 

Just as she finishes her order, the doors open with her fans coming in.
