Chapter 11 On What Ground?
The title of New York’s first beauty was not determined by appearance alone. Laura’s good-looking was tarnished by comparison
At the end of the show, the crowd gathered around to compliment and praise Lily. Lily smiled and modestly replied, “It is nothing. You are flattering me … my sister is also very good …”
Henna, wrapping her arms around her chest, immediately understood the implied meaning, “Miss Laura can also? I’d like to see that!”
The two people echoed each other, making Laura in an awkward position. Henna and Laura were only trying to embarrass her. Who would have thought that Laura would go straight to the stage in silence?
Lily became apprehensive and her heart began to pound. “No way”, Lily reassured herself that Laura was from the countryside and had never even touched a piano, let alone a piano teacher.
“You’d better not mess around and show me up!” Lily, with a smile on her face, bent over Laura’s ear and warned.
Laura looked as innocent and said with some confusion, “Weren’t you planning on embarrassing me? Have I not done what you would have liked?”
Lily froze and turned pale. “If you want to humiliate yourself, I won’t stop you.” Lily sneered in her heart and moved aside. But the next second, the sneer froze on her face.
Laura, playing the same song as Lily! Lily had learned to play the piano for so many years and spent a lot of time playing this world-famous song proficiently … in order to one day be able to amaze others. Laura she … on what ground?
Henna, who had just been egged on, was also shocked. Although it is the same piano piece, the gap was very distinct. Henna didn’t understand the point of Lily provoking Laura. Henna always stood up for Lily every time.
Lily turned her head and saw Henna being upset.
“Henna, I really don’t know! She’s been deliberately misleading me since we met yesterday.” Lily reached out to grab Henna’s hand.
“If I had known … there is absolutely no way I would have let her on stage …” Lily bit her lower lip in embarrassment and continued, “I would absolutely not find anything to bother myself.”
“That’s all right. Don’t worry,” Henna said, patting Lily’s hand reassuringly. “People from the remote areas always like playing tricks.” Lily has a point. Henna immediately put the thought behind her…
The audience applauded fiercely just as Laura finished playing. With a few polite compliments, she hurried off with Henna, leaving Laura alone at the party. Laura, on the other hand, had no idea. After it was over, she went straight backstage to look for Marcus.
He looked frail again. Sitting there fully clothed, he smiled at her, “That was great.”
“I know.” Laura raised her eyebrows and smiled casually.
Marcus was a little surprised. After thinking twice, he added, “You can say you are my friend when you get into trouble in the future. As long as I am alive, I’m still the only heir of the Brown family.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
