Chapter 118 - 117: Plans For The Fundraising Iv

"Alright, that sounds really promising, so what do you all think should we do as a step forward?" Timothy asked everyone.

Via raised her hand to speak, "I think that we should do as Serena suggested. Ms. Emily can work on the concerto because the funds we can raise through that will be more tangible in terms of timing especially that we're working on a tight schedule.", actually, she understood what Serena wanted to happen that's why she said those words.

"Ms. Emily, do you think you can do it? As you are the one who suggested this, I will task you to be the leader of said project." Timothy said.

Emily being up for the challenge nodded her head. She will prove to everyone that her idea was better. Serena's words were very idealistic. Who can say that it would really be successful? In the end, she will be the one to save the day.

"Alright, let's do it this way. Ms. Emily will lead the concerto and I suggest everyone to cooperate with her. On the other hand, Ms. Serena will work on the new song at the same time. Now, we need to know the target dates we will be launching these projects. Do you two have any timeline in mind?" Timothy asked.

"I think that the music and lyrics of my new song should be ready by the end of March. Before that period, I want to draft a list of people who I wish to invite to sing with us. By April, we can start rehearsing and by mid-April, we should be able to get it recorded. Based on my experience on working with Mr. Easton, he can produce the discs in a week. But after that we will need to wait for another week to have an initial estimate of the turnabout. So, I believe the funds from my end can only come in by May." Serena explained.

"I think that the schedule between our projects may overlap. I understand that as Mr. Geoffrey said earlier, the council can only have it sometime in February or April. Targeting the event to be scheduled in February may be too rushed. Given that this January, everyone will be busy with the midterm exams. As the event will be a concerto, a lot of time is also needed to prepare. So, I would say that we can have it in mid-April too. Mr. Charlton, may I kindly request for your assistance in this regard? I understand that your prowess in music is very advanced." Emily said as she looked at Charlton, trying to look pitiful.

Charlton nodded in response. What else should he have done? He was hurt and angry with Serena's words earlier. She outright lumped him together with Emily, and she even announced that she will work on her new song with Geoffrey. He had hoped that she was hating Emily for kissing him. However, it seemed like she was only acting out of spite because Emily was once Geoffrey's lover. Fine, she wants to do it that way? Then he will comply with her wishes.

Serena felt her rage burning. She was very angry with Charlton agreeing on singing on the concerto earlier and although he did not say it, letting her sing there meant that he did not think much about her feelings on doing so. He knew that she hated Emily with passion. Then now, he even agreed to take lead with her. She really wanted nothing more than to throttle him at that moment.

"Okay, so it means that inevitably, you two will need to focus on your own project and will not be able to help in the other. Anyway, that too is good. We have a lot of hands right now. So, for the others, aside from Mr. Geoffrey, Mr. Leonard, and Mr. Charlton, please cooperate with Ms. Serena and Ms. Emily. Anyway, I think we can end it here. I will inform the school facilitators regarding this matter, especially Emily's as I understand the children are also needed to cooperate. Meanwhile, you may all return to your designated assignments, then we will leave at 4pm. Any questions?"

They shook their heads and voiced a no. Seeing them do so, Timothy adjourned the meeting, and everyone went their own ways after.

When it was almost 4 and the children were dismissed, Kylo went ahead not wanting to stay with the company he's with any longer. Emily understood that Geoffrey did not want her there. Obviously, she can not afford to make him dislike her, so she left.

"Serena, are you sure about the project? It will be very taxing especially on you." Geoffrey asked worriedly. Although he respects Serena for coming up with her idea, it would be very difficult.

"Trust me, I can do it. Why? Are you not up for the challenge?" she asked. She was a little skeptical if it would work, as in the two previous songs, it was really Charlton working on the accompanying music. She was not conceited enough to say that it was all her. She knew the tune, the lyrics, and can play the basic piano for it, but in the end, Charlton's masterful music played a big part in making the songs successful.

"To tell you honestly, I am not as good as Charlton when it comes to music." Geoffrey said honestly as he sighed. He did not want to say it, but he did feel quite apprehensive. He admires Serena for her confidence, yet he was afraid that he might disappoint her with his inadequacy.

Serena was afraid that that would be the case and she worried that her project will only become her slapping her own face. Anyway, she could only hope that Geoffrey and Leonard will be helpful. If not, they can try to approach Felix.

"Don't think that. I believe in you. We can do this. Besides, Leonard is also going to help us. I'm sorry for putting pressure on you though." Serena said as she smiled awkwardly. If he was worried, then that's not good. He was the male lead of the novel, so he should have some male lead halo right?

Geoffrey smiled back as he shook his head. "Alright, no matter, I will do my best too."
