Marion gently tugged at Lucas’s shirt to signal him to let go.

Lucas frowned but took a step back.

Still blushing, Marion glanced at him. “It might be Dad.” She retrieved her phone and was surprised when she read the caller ID.

Kirk? Why would he be calling her? Marion glanced at Lucas who had noticed the caller too. Feeling oddly guilty, she said, “I've got to take this call.” Marion gently pushed him aside, took her phone, and walked to the back of the sofa to lean against it. “Hello? Kirk?” “Miss Marion.” “Is everything okay?” “Well, | signed up for a variety show this year. It's a competition where professional singers pair with amateurs and other singers for challenges. The recording starts around October and will take about a month to wrap up.

Could you helpwith something?” Marion raised an eyebrow, “You don’t wantto join you on this show, do you?” “I've already submitted the names of a few friends to the organizers. When they got back to me, they mentioned that your presence as my special guest at the last concepeyad a great impact on the audience. They hope to have you on the show.

“Of course, you don’t need to worry about compensation. It’s 70,000 dollars per episode, and if everything goes well, we'll likely record ten episodes.” Ten episodes meant 700,000 dollars! With such a substantial amount of money, how could Marion not be tempted? But thinking about the rumors that arose after the last concert, Marion hesitated for a moment before deciding. “I'm sorry, Kirk. | don’t intend to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.” “It’s not necessarily about that! | believe your fans would also like to know more about you. Plus, more people would recognize your talents too!” Kirk paused, then continued, “Many of your fans attended your last concert, didn’t they? Don’t you think continuing to keep such a low profile might sadden those who support you?” Marion wanted to earn a living, and Kirk always offered her excellent remuneration whenever he approached her for a job. However, Marion had her principles and strongly felt that not all Chapter 354 Can You Help opportunities needed to be pursued.

Besides money, Marion had another weakness-her fans! She genuinely did not care about how others perceived her, but she was deeply grateful to those who supported her.

Kirk hit the nail on the head with his words.

212 She recalled the day of her most recent concert. Several girls had held up signage with her name. As she left the stage, they shouted encouragement from a distance, hoping she could stand on an even bigger stage.

While she had achieved quite a lot by the age of twenty-five, she was extremely low-key. Many of her achievements were only understood by those well-versed in her field.

The incident where Althea’s fans insulted her was still fresh in her memory. Not only had Althea’s fans criticized for being mediocre, but what was worse was that those who had supported Marion were also targeted.

It seemed like everything had turned into a form of sick entertainment for the public. All she wanted was to play her piano.

What was wrong with the people who liked and supported her? They simply liked her for her talent.

Marion hesitated, then declined more decisively. “No, | think those who likewould prefer that | stay true to myself.” “All right. If you change your mind, callbefore the end of September.” “Okay, thanks, Kirk.” Besides, it was not as if she was lacking money! “I'm sorry | can’t be of help to you.” “It's okay, we can collaborate next time.” Kirk hung up the phone gracefully.

Marion sighed. Just as she turned around, she met Lucas’s dark eyes.

“Kirk?” he asked.
