Chapter 441 - Billie Yves' Concert

Billie's concert was filled with cool technology performances and thick with futuristic vibes. The audience seemed to be transported to life on a new planet somewhere in the future.

The theme of Billie's latest album was global warming, and how humanity should should start preparing to move to a new planet.

It had become a very urgent topic among the different communities on Earth. Since the discovery of a new technology that allowed humans to explore space at speeds exceeding mach-20 a few years ago, mankind had new hopes to leave this earth and move to a better and safer new planet.

The topic was further romanticized by many literary works and musical performances, making people even more eager to explore the new world.

Giant technology companies were also competing to participate in this spirit of exploration and some had already prepared packages for other planet colonies, where people could start saving and bequeathed it to their descendants when the time would come to move out to a new planet.

Jean grabbed Marion's hand and took her to one of the best seats on the left side of the stage to watch the concert. Terry and his friends had prepared various light sabers and other accessories to take part in the visual excitement of the concert, which, according to the information, would be a Star Wars themed show in the middle of the concert. They looked extremely happy.

Endo and Neo saw Marion enter and gave her a thumbs up. The girl just rolled her eyes. She looked around and had to admit that the atmosphere at the concert felt very magical and thrilling to the soul.

She now understood why so many people struggled to get tickets to watch Billie's concerts. The venue was already thrilling with excitement even before the concert began, and once the superstar appeared on stage, the atmosphere was totally electrical.

The long-awaited moment had finally arrived. The music stomped and the light show began to decorate the large semicircular stage in the middle of the stadium. A very beautiful voice could be heard singing a very famous song.

Spontaneously, the audience joined in singing along with Billie who suddenly appeared. She slowly lowered onto the stage by an ingenious contraption. She wore a pair of wings which gave her the appearance of an angel.

Even Marion was excited. Her eyes went round when she watched the electrifying performance. She experienced first-hand how much Billie was loved by her fans. She glanced to her side and saw a smiling Jean looking at his ex-girlfriend with loving admiration.

Marion remembered that Jean once had said that whatever happened to his relationship with Billie, he always had been and always would be a fan. Now she understood what he had meant.

Billie was indeed a charismatic artist, her songs were full of meaning and her music was so beautiful, the crowd just loved her. Even Neo who was usually quite indifferent to the world was a die-hard fan of Billie's.

This was something Marion felt she should accept, even though she felt uncomfortable. Marion realized that her jealousy was unwarranted and that she had to bring herself to treat Billie kindly when they met later on.

Song after song was performed and the audience was getting crazy. The atmosphere was out of this world and everyone enjoyed this soul-stirring experience. Billie was indeed legendary. Her 28-year-long career in the music industry had made her a living legend.

People praised her as the perfect girl. She was talented, she had never been involved in any scandals, and she was also very beautiful. At the age of 45, her beauty was unblemished and no match for many newcomers in the industry.

That was why her separation with Jean six months ago had caused a big sensation and let to a lot of speculations. Some people tried to find out Billie's shortcomings and weaknesses that had led to the break-up.

Others suggested they might actually be gays and had only been using their relationship all these years to cover up their sexual orientation.

Billie was indeed a very private person and before dating Jean she had once been rumored to be a lesbian. Now the cheap gossip was back in full force.

Jean was aware that if he would hurriedly get into a relationship with another woman, Billie would once again become a victim of these rumors. Therefore he refrained and would not yet appear with a new girlfriend on his arm.

Unfortunately last month he had been caught red-handed by paparazzi while kissing Marion in Switzerland. He had been drinking  a bit too much and had let his guard down, even though at that time he and Marion actually were not dating.

Now Jean realized he would not be able to hide his feelings for Marion any longer. He turned to his side and found Marion looking at him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Jean asked silently mouthing the words in the all overpowering concert frenzy..

Marion shook her head and smiled.

At that moment Billie had just finished a song and walked over to the center of the stage and raised her hand. The crowd immediately fell silent.

"Good evening, Singapore!! Good evening, Asia!! I'm very happy to be back here performing for my loyal fans. You are all amazing!" She bowed slightly and the audience went crazy with their applause. Billie smiled broadly and then her eyes met with Jean and she blew him a kiss, "Thank you Jean, for making the time to be here with your family. Thank you for always supporting me no matter what. Terry, I wish you success with your career!"

Terry's friends screamed with joy because Terry was called out by the legendary artist and Billie also blew kisses at him.

"Oh my God!!! This is amazing!!! Everyone is watching this ..." exclaimed Isla, who was still using her cellphone to broadcast the live show through Splitz to her university group.

Thousands of comments quickly appeared in response to Terry's closeness with Jean and Billie. The whole St. Mary University overflowed with happiness and excitement; their former head of the student council turned out to have a relationship with two of the most famous people on this planet.

The concert resumed lively until it ended at 10 pm. The audience crammed to get out. Fortunately Jean, Marion, Terry and his friends had VIP access so they could go backstage straightaway.

The faces of Terry's friends were almost stiff from constant smiling. They couldn't wait to meet Billie Yves in person.
