Chapter 162 Jealous Husband
As she placed a necklace on the model, Renee chuckled and reassured him, “Don’t worry, these are my friend’s collections. I am borrowing them for the time being.”
“I know Freddy well, and he’s not that rich.” Jonah’s tone was still very cautious and wary.
“It’s not Freddy, it’s another friend of mine.”
Jonah stared at her, feeling numb.
Why couldn’t he have such a wealthy friend?
“Should we arrange for more security?” It suddenly occurred to Jorah that having such priceless jewels in one place could make them vulnerable to robbery.
“Security has already been arranged outside the venue, “Renee informed him.
There were enough cameras inside the venue, and they covered every angle.
Renee had spent a huge amount of money on these jewels, so it was only natural for her to want to protect them.
Despite not being new, these jewels were timeless works of art from different time periods and private collections, with limited availability and more alluring than the newest designs from popular brands.
At that moment, Jonah realized that Vivian’s unexpected decision to break the contract was actually a fortunate turn of events, if not for her actions, they would have missed out on discovering such valuable collectable.
Vivian’s designs paled in comparison to these!
“It’s time for the pianist to get ready,” Renee reminded Jonah.
The final piece of music for this show was a piano solo, and the pianist’s styling had been assigned to Renee.
The pianist, a handsome man under thirty, suddenly stood up, but he didn’t make any attempt to go and change his clothes.
“Sorry, I agreed to cooperate with your company because I am Vivian’s friend. Since you’re not using Vivian’s jewelry, I will also
breach the contract.”
Alarmed, Jonah started persuading the pianist, but all his words fell on deaf ears.
“Since Renee managed to find a replacement for Vivian’s jewelry, I’m sure she will also be able to solve this issue too.” There was a hint of malice in the pianist’s smile.
Renee’s jewelry had been delivered hours ago, but the pianist waited until now to tell them he wouldn’t be playing. It was just like Vivian’s disregard for their contract agreement!
Or perhaps, this was a coordinated scheme he and Vivian had come up with.
Jonah’s expression immediately hardened.
“Jay, are you willing to break our agreement because of a personal vendetta?”
Jay shrugged nonchalantly. His expression made it clear he knew there was nothing they could do to him.
His family was rich, so he could easily pay the breach of contract fte.
Renee glanced at Jay, completely unperturbed, while Jonah grew increasingly agitated. “Jonah, check around and see if there is a suitable pianist available. If not, I can play.”
“Alright!”
Two seconds later, Jonah’s mind parsed Renee’s words to his brain and he suddenly realized what he just agreed to.

Did Renee just say she would play the piano?
Even if she could, was her skill level enough for a major show?

It seemed his brain had malfunctioned. If not, why would he have greed to this crazy plan without a second thought?
But then, Renee had promised to bring some jewelries, and she ended up bringing a collection of rare and valuable pieces.
After that experience, Jonah couldn’t help but feel that Renee was capable of anything.
He thought to himself, “Playing the piano would be a breeze compared to bringing out so many jewels!”
The show lasted one hour and forty minutes,
Less than two hours was not enough time for Light to find a suitable and available pianist and transport them to the show’s
venue.
Jonah suddenly became aware of a serious issue that had slipped his mind amidst everything happening when he saw Renee taking her spare time to read the music score. “Renee, you haven’t seen the music score we were going to play, right?”
“Right, I’m looking at it now,“Renee replied, completely engrossed in reading and memorizing the score.
She had been blessed with a photographic memory since she was young and could memorize music scores after glancing through them.
Jonah, unaware of Renee’s ability, suddenly came to the realization that his impulsive decision was a major mistake. He covered
his face and groaned in despair, “I should have continued searching for a professional pianist!”
Even if the pianist they found was an average player, that pianist was bound to be better than Renee, who was reading the score on the spot.
Renee didn’t have the time to comfort or reassure him.
When she saw the final set of models preparing to step on stage, she realized that it was time for her to start playing the piano. As she hurried to the grand piano in the corner of the runway, a distant part of her mind reminded her that she hadn’t changed into an appropriate dress.
As her fingers danced over the keys, the piano’s melodious tunes sliced through the silence.
The piano’s sound was pure and clear, with each note distinct, resonating deeply and reminiscent noble vibe of a king.
The background music pushed the entire show to its climax.
Jonah’s expression changed from apprehension to shock, and finally to delight.
