Chapter 254 They Make a Move
William jumped directly onto the stage, facing the gaze of Sophia's 80,000 fans. He was calm. After all, he was a fake fan, and he didn't feel particularly excited about singing with Sophia.
"Do you know how to sing 'White Fox'?" Sophia asked William in a soft voice after putting down the microphone.
"A little. Is there a teleprompter?" William had just finished asking when Sophia pointed to a prompter in front of the stage.
"The prompter is there. I'll sing the female parts, and you sing the male parts. Don't embarrass me, okay? Good luck," Sophia said.
William nodded and took hold of a microphone. He knew how to sing. In college, he would often go singing with his friends, but it was nothing extraordinary.
Soon, the music introduction began, and the 80,000 fans below the stage waved their glow sticks and cheered excitedly. Michelle was eagerly anticipating William's performance, while Julia was envious, as she also wanted to go up and sing with her idol.
After the introduction, Sophia raised the microphone and looked at William with deep affection as she started to sing.
Sophia's singing was excellent. She was beautiful, her voice was beautiful, and it was even more rare that she sang out the emotional essence of the lyrics. Then it was William's turn to sing the male parts. He looked at the teleprompter, held the microphone, and without hesitation, began to sing.
William's singing was also good. Although not as professional as Sophia, he still put his emotions into it because the lyrics of "White Fox" vaguely touched upon his own experiences.
When he was poor and penniless, he could be with Michelle, his love. However, after becoming a super-rich heir, he had to marry Sophia, and he couldn't be with Michelle anymore.
Perhaps when William and Sophia announced their engagement, it would be the moment when Michelle would be filled with sorrow and pain, even to the point of considering suicide. This was something William didn't want to see.
Michelle watched William singing on the stage, her eyes fixed on him, emitting a flickering light.
This song, "White Fox," with its sad lyrics and melody, sounded quite impressive with the deep emotional duet of William and Sophia.
The 80,000 fans seemed to be immersed in that tragic love story. But William knew he was singing the song for himself. However, he believed that with his efforts, he would reverse the outcome depicted in the lyrics and it wouldn't happen to him.
The song was quickly finished, but the real danger was just beginning.
William didn't leave the stage. Instead, he whispered in Sophia's ear, "Someone is planning to kidnap you."
"Kidnap me?" Sophia exclaimed in shock, but when she saw William's serious expression, she knew he wasn't lying. Her expression changed slightly, and she whispered to him, "Follow me."
Relieved that Sophia believed him, William let out a sigh. It saved him the trouble of explaining further. He immediately sent a message to Michelle, informing her that he needed to talk to Sophia about the filming situation for Season 2 Episode 2 of "Wilderness Life," asking them to go ahead.
William followed Sophia down the celebrity's passage.
As they went backstage, Kylie noticed that William had followed them. She approached with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's going on? Why did William come along?"
This was behind the scenes. How could they let William come here?
"Don't speak, quickly leave this place. I'll explain later." William furrowed his brow, feeling a sense of urgency. At this moment, the Graham family members should be preparing for action.
"William, was I talking to you?" Kylie said, sounding somewhat displeased. She was asking Sophia, not him.
"Just listen to William for now. Let's leave quickly; it's dangerous here," Sophia said earnestly. She couldn't explain either.
"Well then, let's go to the dressing room to change clothes and remove makeup. We can't go back in stage costumes!" Kylie said helplessly.
"William, you come with me. Stay here and take care of everything." After saying this, she hurriedly went to the dressing room to change clothes.
William followed closely behind and took out a white bracelet with a GPS tracker from his pocket, handing it to Sophia.
"Put it on. In case of an accident, we can locate you with this bracelet."
"Is there a tracker inside this bracelet?" Sophia didn't hesitate and directly put the white bracelet on her left wrist. After putting it on, Sophia admired it for a few moments.
"This bracelet is quite beautiful."
William was speechless. Even at a time like this, she still had the mind to appreciate the beauty of this bracelet.
There was some distance between the stage and the dressing room, and during this time, many staff members were walking back and forth. William was wary of these people, but of course, some of them were arranged by him.
If the members of the Graham family dared to make a move, these undercover staff members would strike together.
The journey from behind the stage to the dressing room went smoothly, so smoothly that William began to doubt if someone really intended to kidnap Sophia.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the dressing room. However, after they entered, a woman in her thirties, dressed exquisitely, followed them.
"Who are you?" William asked, looking at her cautiously.
"Who do you think you are? I'm Clara, Sophia's makeup artist. You must be the new one! I don't even know you. Sophia is changing clothes now, so you better leave quickly!" Clara pointed at William, speaking with a dominant tone.
"William, she's my makeup artist. Please wait outside for a while! I'll come out soon." Sophia didn't want William to see her changing clothes. After all, there are differences between men and women.
"Alright then, but make it quick." William turned around and stood outside the dressing room door, guarding it.
After William left, Clara locked the door, fearing that William might come in and peek. William didn't mind, as he wasn't interested in seeing Sophia's body anyway.
However, after waiting for five minutes, William started to feel something was wrong. He turned around and shouted a few times at the door, but still got no response.
"Oh no! There's something wrong with the makeup artist!" William tried to open the door, only to find it was locked from the inside.
"Dammit!" William gritted his teeth and kicked the door forcefully, sending it flying.
