Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 69

Ashley did not reply to Matthew’s message.

She looked at Laura and asked, “Laura, is Matthew also releasing a new album in a month? Are our schedules clashing?”

Laura frowned at the mention of this. “Matthew was supposed to launch his album in two months, but he suddenly brought it forward to next month, causing a clash in our schedules.

“You know how popular Bryce is. Every move he makes is being watched, and Matthew, a hit singer, is no exception. With both of them releasing music at the same time, people are already secretly comparing their sales.”

In reality, Bryce was releasing an EP with only three songs.

But the album released by Matthew contained ten songs.

Given the pricing of three dollars per song, even if more fans purchased Bryce’s EP, the total sales revenue would likely still fall short of

Matthew’s.

Ashley pondered briefly and smiled, “Laura, I’ve decided to write a song for Bryce.”

Laura was surprised. She chuckled, “You’ve agreed? That’s wonderful.”

Bryce raised an eyebrow in surprise, glancing at her. “Why did you suddenly agree?”

Ashley smiled slightly, playfully throwing his words back at him. “I changed my mind, and now I want to. What can you do about it?”

Bryce was speechless.

‘Damn,’ He murmured.

Bryce licked his teeth and looked at Ashley intently.

Laura tapped on the table, saying, “About the EP, let’s discuss the details. Bryce, which song are you still missing the melody for?”

Bryce leaned back on the sofa, twirling a ring on his right finger with hist left hand. “The hardest one.”

“The hardest one?”

Laura immediately understood, pulling up the song’s outline on her phone and walking to Ashley. “Ashley, take a look.”

Ashley scanned it briefly, noticing it was a dark-themed song.

It was indeed interesting.

Her interest piqued, Ashley responded confidently, “Okay, I think I got it.”

Bryce looked surprised for a moment. “You’re sure? When can you have it ready?”

Ashley answered, “Tomorrow night, I’ll give it to you.”

Bryce was taken aback.
