Chapter 1811
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âWhat? Iâ¦sing a song? On stage?â
âYes, I mean it.â
âNo way. Uncle Adalson, I donât have any singing prowess, discovered or otherwise. They know Iâm
your niece and Iâll disgrace you. Please donât!â Blair refused, trying to sound nice but ended up being
blunt instead.
Adalson waved his hand, motioning for her to calm down.

âOh please! I remember you sing quite well. Just do your best. Go and prepare yourself now.â
âI sing quite well?â Blair was completely flabbergasted.
âUncle, Iâm kind of tone-deaf. Please, I donât want to sing on the stage and embarrass myself,â she
pleaded, but to no avail. âWith so many eyes on me, thereâs no way I can sing! They will only laugh at
me, â she thought to herself.
Adalson tried to persuade her patiently, âJust Listen to me. The guyâs wooden-headed. You need to do
something to stimulate him. You know, fall harder for you, or he wouldnât know how good you are.â
With that topic brought up, Blair sighed, âActually, thereâs no need to do that, Uncle. He doesnât love
me. I donât want to force him to love me back anymore. Whatâs more, I like the state we are in right
now.
Weâre getting along peacefully, at the very least.â She didnât lie about anything. They were Living
together in harmony for the moment; she could see him from time to time; and he treated her well and
took her out for fun once in a while. She was content with all this. It didnât matter to her anymore
whether she could become his girlfriend or not. She wanted some peace and quiet in her Life and she
had it.
However, showing no signs of giving in, Adalson ignored her disagreement and dialed a number.
Before the line was connected, he asked her, âWhat song are you going to sing? How about the song
you sang with Joslyn Last time. You did quite well on that. What was its name again?â
Blair didnât tell him the name.
âUncleâ¦I donât want to sing a song.
Please.. she drawled, helpless.
She got what the man was trying to do and his intentions werenât that bad. But she didnât think it would
work. She had had a fiance in the past, but Wesley wasnât affected or stimulated by this. How could
she hope to make any influence on him just by singing a song? She shook her head resignedly; she
was sure it wasnât going to work
As soon as the call got through, Adalson skipped all niceties and instructed the person on the other
end, âAdd one more program at the end of the show. The performer is Blair Johnsonâ¦â
âUncle Adalson!â Blair pulled a crying face, trying hard to convince him to cancel. She hadnât expected
her uncle would be so bossy this time.
After ending the call, he comforted the girl, âYou fool. I know how well you sing, which means either you
lack confidence or are being overly modest. You really sing well. Itâs decided already. Okay, you can go
out now.â
Blair had no choice but to nod, sighing in defeat.
She continued to think about which song to sing continuously after she left Adalsonâs office. Even after
she had entered the venue with Wesley and sat down, her mind wasnât made up. This was getting too
late
So she had to ask for her best friendâs opinion.
âJoslyn, help! Youâve heard me sing so many times. Which song do you think I can sing?
Something easy you know, something I donât suck at?â
As usual, Joslyn replied to her message in a heartbeat.
âSomething you donât suck at? Bless, you sing every song really well. But I Like to hear you sing âThe
Fish.â Youâre great at it!â
