Chapter 11: What Are Words (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
"Son, have you been out of love lately?" Catherine's slightly worried voice came from the other end of the phone.
"No, Mom. Severn was speechless.
"Is there something wrong with your studies?"
"No, there isn't. β
"Is that me and your dad you off?"
"Not even more. β
There was a silence on the other end of the phone, which made Severn feel uneasy, suddenly.
"Then you man actually made such a big bet with others, son, 100 million, a whole 100 million! That's not a blank piece of paper, it's a waste of money!" Catherine erupted, shouting at Severn over the phone.
As soon as Severn returned to her small apartment, Catherine received news that Severn had signed a gambling agreement with EMI, and when she heard about the funds in the bet, she almost fainted.
She has worked hard for most of her life to be buried by that "idiot son", so she can't wait to call Severn.
"Mom, you have to believe me, your son is not a real idiot, how can I do things that I am not sure of. Severn stroked his forehead and said helplessly, he knew that it was this.
"Son, if you weren't an idiot, would you bet 100 million pounds with someone else for 100 million album sales?"
"Where are you, I'll come to you. Catherine said in a frenzy.
Severn sometimes wondered if he was Catherine's own, and he had never seen anyone scold his son like this. But now that he can't help himself, Severn has to say coquettishly:
"Mom~, I'm so old, I'm sure. β
This trick is unpleasant, although it is a little shameful, but who made her his mother.
"Son, this matter is too big, I can't hide it from your dad at all, tell me where you live, otherwise when your dad knows, you'll be finished." Hearing her son's coquettish voice, Catherine's heart softened and she whispered to Severn.
"I wasn't going to hide it from him, it's fine. Severn didn't care.
"It's all right?!" Catherine said in a voice that rose abruptly, "It's not that you don't know your father's character, and with his old-fashioned and stingy appearance, he knows that he can't whip you to death!"
Hearing this, Severn said indifferently: "It's a big deal, I'm just running away." β
He wasn't afraid of his father at all, it was a big deal to run out and hide for a while, anyway, he believed that with his ability, he could get mixed up anywhere.
Hearing Severn's words as such a "bastard", Catherine was so angry that she was about to start going violent, but then Severn said:
"Mom, don't worry, did you see the song I sang that day on the Internet?"
"I promise, every song on my album is of the same quality, if not better, than that one!" Severn said, patting his chest.
Seeing this, Catherine hesitated slightly, "Are you sure?"
The song "Dream It Possible", Catherine saw it on the Internet, after all, it was sung by her own son, how could she not care.
She was born in the entertainment industry and knows that this song is a classic, if the songs in Severn's album are of such a level and properly promoted, it is not impossible to sell more than 100 million!
"I'm sure. Severn affirmed, "Mom, when has your son ever let you down, and I'm so old, I can make my own decisions." β
After Severn finished speaking, Catherine on the other end of the phone was silent, and I don't know how long it took before Catherine said slowly: "Okay then, but you have to sing a song from your album to your mother, let me check it." β
"This?" Severn looked at the busy crowd in the apartment, then hesitated, "Okay, Mom, you wait, I'll go get the guitar." β
Abt and the others didn't think much about it when they saw Severn going to get the guitar, they just raised their heads and looked at them, and then went back to their respective work.
Zheng ~ Zheng ~
Severn tuned the strings of his guitar, then turned on the amplification, and said into the phone, "Mom, are you still listening?"
Catherine immediately replied, "Yes, you can sing." β
Severn moistened his throat and began to sing:
Anywhere you are I am near
No matter where you are, I will be there for you
Anywhere you go Iβll be there
Wherever you go, I will be there
Anytime you whisper my name
Whenever you call me by name
.......
"What Are Words", a song written by Chris Medina, an American talent singer in the last life, for his wife, although it did not win the championship, this song has swept the Internet and is widely circulated around the world!
As Severn's singing sounded, Abt and the others didn't know when they put down their work and quietly listened to Severn's slightly sad singing.
........
When you need me most
Leave you when you need me most
Iβm forever keeping
I will always be
My angel close
The angel who guards me
.........
Severn put down his guitar and said, "Mom, how's it going?"
Catherine on the other end of the line didn't immediately reply.
"I won't have to listen to it. Severn muttered inwardly.
"Mom?" Severn shouted tentatively.
"Mom?"
After a while, Catherine cried a little, "Son, who are you singing this song to?"
"Forehead ......." Severn was caught off guard by the question, "It's not for anyone, it's just singing." β
"Son, who are you fooling, I didn't expect your mother and I to work hard to raise you, and you are going to find another woman in the blink of an eye, woo~"
As she spoke, Catherine began to cry, which made Severn's head grow for a while, and when she met such a sensual and unreasonable mother, Severn did not know whether to be happy or sad.
"Mom, listen to me, I'm not in love yet, that's really just a simple lyrics. Severn forcibly explained, and this sentence made Severn blush a little.
"Didn't lie to me?"
"I don't lie to you, why is my son lying to you. β
"That's fine, anyway, if you talk about a girlfriend in the future, you have to bring it home and let me check it. Catherine breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, where are you going? Severn was speechless.
"I'm your mother, can't I see my future daughter-in-law?" Catherine said strongly.
"Okay, okay, you're up to you. Severn responded.
"You are interested, but I have to say, son, you sang this song so well, and I was moved to cry when I sang it. Catherine complimented.
"Hey, hey, what's going on, Mom, I'll just say my songs are okay. Severn said shamelessly.
Catherine didn't care about her son's narcissism, but worried: "Son, if your songs are all of this type, your album won't sell 100 million." β
Severn couldn't deny this, "Mom, don't worry, I have other types of songs, and you'll know when the time comes out." β
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news, your father, I'll help you with it first. Catherine said to Severn.
"Thank you, Mom, I knew you were the best!" Severn said excitedly, without the resistance of Earl Spencer, Severn also had one less trouble.
"You are poor, this family will be ruined by you sooner or later. Catherine said helplessly, but her tone was full of pampering.
"Hey, hey~" Severn smiled embarrassedly.
"Alright, I'm hanging, bye-bye. β
"Bye-bye, Mom. β
Severn hung up the phone, undoubtedly deeply relieved, his father and his mother's problems have been solved, and now they only need to record the album, as for the album's 100 million sales, he is confident, after all, the past few years have been the last prosperity of the record industry!
When Severn raised his head, he was startled by the surrounding situation, only to see that Abt and the others were all looking at Severn with gloomy eyes, their expressions were slightly sad, and they had obviously not yet come out of Severn's singing.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Severn, unaware.
"Boss, what's the name of your song?" asked David.
βγWhat Are Wordsγγ β
"Boss, you must be a man with a story. Abt looked at Severn and said in a solemn tone.
"What are you talking about? Didn't I just say it, it's just a simple lyric, and there's nothing rich about it. Severn was a little devastated.
βBoss....... We're all men, we understand. Diem glanced at Severn, first made a look of wanting to speak, and then sighed slowly.
Severn didn't know what to say at this time, it was obvious that they had misunderstood, but Severn didn't bother to explain, so he had to use his prerogative to instruct: "The work is done?
"Yes. β
Seeing Severn's serious expression, Abt and the others stopped joking, and sat in front of the computer one after another and continued to program.
At this time, in the Althop Manor in London, Catherine said triumphantly to a middle-aged man beside her: "How about it, my son's level is okay." β
"You are used to him, a loving mother is a bad child, and sooner or later he will be spoiled!" The middle-aged man was Severn's father, Earl Spencer.
He had been standing by Catherine and Severn on the phone, and he had heard all the conversations between Catherine and Severn, including the song "What Are Words" played by Severn.
Hearing that his son had his own opinions, he was both relieved and helpless.
"Hmph, I'm not used to him who is used to him!" Catherine immediately retorted.
"Okay, okay, you can do whatever you want, anyway, you don't have to pay if you lose the bet, right? "The Earl of Spencer, like Severn, had no choice but to get used to Catherine.
"Isn't your money mine, and who said our son couldn't win, I have faith in him anyway!" said Catherine.
"Yes, yes, don't say it, I'll know when his album comes out. Earl Spencer muttered quietly.
