Aladdin had called him that morning. He had been "chaperoning" Alibaba and Kougyoku's date at Kouen's request. When Aladdin had started talking he had told her to wait and put the phone on speaker so Alibaba could here to, that way she wouldn't have to call him and tell the story again.
Sinbad was going to pay. No one was allowed to make Aladdin unhappy. He was already planning to avenge her. For now, he needed information on Sinbad. Step one; hire a private investigator, check. He wanted to know everything Sinbad did or was planning to do. He had a knack for sabotage. And his fan base was huge; he had power unlike Alibaba. Not as much power as Kouen or Sinbad, but he had enough to do some damage to Sinbad.
He wanted to know what that father of hers was doing. Step two, visit Solomon at Alma Torran's office. Her manager didn't look surprised to see him.
"I was going to call you if you didn't show up soon." He was? Kouha was mildly confused.
"So what's the plan, Solomon? You are going to do something right? Because if you aren't-"
"I'm expanding my company to work in entertainment." Well, that was blunt. Ugo chuckled. 'They both got straight to the point.'
"That's all? You are going to give your daughter another place to be overworked? Great idea. Sounds wonderful! It sounds like you are making more work for me, do I really have to deal with two idiot males in Aladdin's life? Because this is getting old."
"It isn't just to give her another place to work. I'm going to bury Sinbad's company. He has spent years building his reputation and finding a talent like Aladdin to draw people who don't like Sinbad's image. What happens to him when a name as influential as Alma Torran brings in singers like Aladdin and Judal? People who are already loved and focal points for their companies. He sinks. He won't have anything left."
"Impressive."
"I can't take any action against Sinbad that could lead back to me otherwise this whole plan may blow up in our faces, but you can." Kouha arched his brow. "Sabotage him. Make the next few months a living hell for him. I don't care how you do it, but I don't think he should get away with what he did."
Kouha's smirk was huge. "I think I'm capable of that. Tell me about this new entertainment venture."
Solomon explained everything he was aiming for. How jobs would be run, vacation times, and earnings. He explained some of his and Ugo's original ideas, not necessarily brand new, but recreated to bring in money and success without overworking the artists. He explained everything he wanted to do. Kouha smiled. "How interesting. You actually care about the people. Al Thamen and Sindria just care about the product of our work. I want in."
Solomon was taken aback. He hadn't thought the red-head would go against his current label. "Why?"
"Because I hate Al Thamen. It really sucks. And I want to work with Aladdin and Judal and others. I can't do that with Al Thamen. No out of company collaborations. As much as I like my siblings I want variety."
"I see. Well, welcome. I will be happy to have an artist of your talent with us."
"Do you even know what I do or are you just saying that?"
"You go back and forth between singing, acting, and modeling. You have quite the following."
"Someone did their homework. I have planning to do so I'll let myself out…Oh, and Kouen or Koumei will probably come talk to you. Actually it will probably be both."
After he left there was a moment of silence, then Solomon started laughing. "Ugo, I like this kid. Aladdin chooses the most interesting people. We should talk to her old friends to, the ones she used to perform with. They might join as minor artists if the conditions are better then what they were offered with Sindria. Aladdin would be happy it she could work with them again."
Guyssss!
So my aunt signed me up for this SAT prep course to take while i'm visiting her. I really really REALLY don't like vocab. It really is not my strong suit. I mean really? Maudlin? I spent thirty minutes trying to figure out what the affixes of this word are. It doesn't have any. At least according to my research. If any of you have helpful tips tell me pleaseeeee! BEcause I am really very done with this already. Actually I'm just really tired and my brain isn't working and I need to take an hour and just chill...Unfortunately that isn't going to happen.
I don't really think i'm making sense anymore so i'm going to go. Please don't forget to review and request things to be put in the story. I'm working on things i'm just a bit slower then normal because I have been watching my cousins. I'm working on finding a balance but it will take me probably two more days. We shall see. Stick with me.
Until Next Time!
