Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 1135

Jude had never heard of the song. As he searched the database, he muttered, "Is it really that obscure? Why don't you sing it first so I can hear what it's about?"

Noreen was equally curious to see what Seth looked like when he sang.

Jude queued up the track and handed the microphone to Seth, urging him on. "Hurry up, I can't wait."

Every single eye in the room was locked onto Seth.

He took the mic gracefully, his posture remaining cool and aloof. He spoke into the microphone, "I only know a few lines from the chorus."

Jude's curiosity peaked. "The chorus is fine!"

He was just thrilled to witness this miracle.

Wanting to get to the good part faster, Jude skipped the intro and dragged the progress bar straight to the chorus.

Seth's gaze rested on the glowing blue screen as he opened his mouth, perfectly matching the rhythm.

"I have no title, I hold no grudge, it is hard to bear resentment toward you..."

Noreen was taking a sip of juice. Seeing the lyrics, she froze, and in the next second—

"Pfft!"

The room went dead silent for two seconds.

Seth acted as if he hadn't noticed a thing, his gaze fixed on some empty point in the air as he continued singing.

"You knock on the door to my heart, softly calling my name..."

The last note trembled slightly, sounding like a sigh of longing.

The crowd wasn't shocked because he sounded bad.

On the contrary, his voice was deep, resonant, and incredibly magnetic.

It sounded like embers slowly burning in a winter fireplace—not scorching hot, but a warmth that seeped straight into your bones.

Every word was delivered with absolute stability, yet there was a lingering, careless laziness to his tone.

It didn't feel like he was singing; it felt like he was quietly narrating an old, heartbreaking story.

The spotlight washed over him, casting sharp shadows over his brow bone, making his dark, predatory gaze look unexpectedly romantic.

Yet his eyes seemed to cut straight through the loud music and the crowd, landing softly on one specific person—

Snapping out of her shock, Claire leaned close to Noreen's ear, giving her a very loaded look.
