Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74 

The moment this tweet was posted, it was like tossing a bomb into at sérene lake, sparking immediate reviews on the Internet. 

[What the hell! Seriously? Ash? Is Ash the mysterious composer for Bryce?] 

[Is 

This for real? Don’t mess with me! Ash is Matthew’s mentor. How could he compose for Bryce?] 

[Could it be a namesake?] 

Upon discovering Bryce’s tweet, Matthew was left in a state of shock. 

He exclaimed inwardly, ‘How could it be? How could Ash compose for Bryce? It must be another person with the same name!’ 

Refusing to believe, Matthew posted another tweet with trembling hands.. 

Matthew: [Heh, it seems not only Ash’s style but even his name is mimicked. Pathetic!] 

Matthew’s fans promptly rushed to defend their idol. 

[I can’t believe this. It’s so disgusting! Copying Ash even in the name!] 

[Everyone knows that Matthew is Ash’s only student. Ash doesn’t even have time to compose a song for Matthew. How could he compose for someone else unrelated?] 

Matthew’s panicked heart gradually calmed down. He thought, ‘Yes, Ash has been too busy lately to spare me any attention. How could he have time to compose songs for someone else? It must be a case of mistaken- identity.’ 

Matthew opened the chat with Ash, intending to report the incident: [Ash, someone is using a name identical to yours, trying to ride on your popularity…] 

He had just finished editing the message, and a notification popped up before he could send it: [Ash posted a tweet.] 

Matthew was stunned, wondering why Ash, who hadn’t updated his Twitter in a long time, suddenly tweeted. 

He had followed and turned on notifications for Ash.

He immediately clicked in. 

On Ash’s certified account, which had been silent for half a year, there was a retweet of Bryce’s new song with the comment: [A pleasant collaboration.] 

“Bang.” 

Matthew’s face turned deadly pale. His hand shook, and the phone fell to the ground. 

Meanwhile, on the Internet, Ash’s tweet was a bolt from the blue, once again causing a stir. 

In an instant, netizens flooded Ash’s Twitter. 

[Ash! You’ve finally released a new song! “Dark Faith” is so good!] 

[Ash, why did you suddenly compose a song for Bryce?] 

Some netizens even rushed to Bryce’s Twitter. 

[Bryce, you’re the coolest! Please answer my question. Have you seen Ash’s true appearance? Ash is so talented. He must be an experienced middle-aged person, right?] 

Hashtags like “Ash released new songs”, “Ash’s pleasant collaboration with Bryce” and “Bryce’s mysterious composer is Ash” immediately shot up to the top of the trending list. 

The one “Ash’s pleasant collaboration with Bryce” trended directly to the first spot and hit the Internet. 

Twitter servers were on the brink of collapse. 

Discussions among netizens showed no sign of ceasing. 

[Given Matthew’s reaction, it seems he didn’t know Ash composed songs for Bryce.] 

[He definitely didn’t know. Matthew just posted a tweet accusing Bryce’s composer of imitating Ash. It’s so awkward…] 

[Ash used to really appreciate Matthew, taking him as a student at Matthew’s lowest and never giving him up. Now, he’s writing songs for Bryce. Did Matthew do something to upset Ash?] 

[It doesn’t matter. I’ll support Ash’s new songs and buy Bryce’s new EP!]

[I’m Ash’s fan, so I bought 100 copies of Matthew’s new album solely because he is Ash’s student. But there seems to be some mistake. Now I’m going to buy Bryce’s songs!] 

For a moment, Ash’s formidable fanbase flooded into Bryce’s new song purchase links. 

Bryce’s new song sales were growing even faster than before, reaching an unprecedented pace. 

As time passed, around the evening, netizens who had been monitoring the sales noticed that Bryce’s new EP had sold 3.35 million copies! 

Meanwhile, Matthew had sold only one million. 

Bryce’s new song sales revenue had surpassed Matthew’s! 

And it continued climbing at a rapid pace, pulling away from Matthew more and more. It was only a matter of time before the total sales surpassed 100 million! 

[What the heck! Bryce actually surpassed Matthew! We are witnessing a historic moment!] 

[He beats Matthew’s ten songs with just three. Unbelievable!] 

[Ash’s influence is truly enormous. I estimate two-thirds of the people bought them just because of Ash.] 

[Without Ash, Matthew is nothing!] 

At this moment, Matthew remained motionless on the couch in a dimly lit room, holding a posture of curled-up despair. 

He was in a state of shock. Ash composed songs for Bryce and not for him… 

He had invited Ash to be his composer, but Ash hadn’t responded even 

– once. 

‘Did I really upset Ash?’ He thought. 

Thinking of this, Matthew was engulfed by immense panic. He picked up. his phone, fingers trembling, and sent a message to Ash. 

[Ash, did I upset you?] 

[Ash, why did you compose for Bryce?
