Sydney walked over and asked Emelia worriedly, "Did they deliberately make things difficult for you?"
Emelia gently blinked at Sydney. Sydney immediately understood what she meant. Did she meant that Yvonne's little trick was going to fail again?
Sydney didn't ask any more questions. She gently patted Emelia's shoulder. To outsiders, she seemed to be comforting the flustered Emelia. In fact, it meant, "I'm looking forward to it."
After the woman finished her song, everyone applauded and then looked at Emelia.
Emelia stood up uneasily and clenched her fists.
These details were all taught by Nina. She was so serious, as if she was a director telling an actor what to do. Emelia just followed Nina's teaching and walked to the piano under the gazes of everyone who were either expectant or looking for a joke.
Emelia has fair skin, and her black wool skirt made her look even more beautiful. She sat in front of the piano, looking particularly graceful.
With the dazzling ruby necklace around her neck, even if she didn't do anything, no one could look away.
Yvonne stood up with her arms crossed, her eyes fixed on Emelia in front of the piano, waiting for her to make a fool of herself.
Although she had booked the whole place tonight, she had also arranged someone to take photos in the corner. As long as Emelia made a mistake, Yvonne would try her best to bring her down
This time, she was determined to shame Emelia in public.
Unexpectedly, Emelia's eyes suddenly became unusually bright after she sat down. She looked very confident.
Yvonne had a bad feeling. With a smile, Emelia elegantly played the piano. A smooth and pleasant tune instantly sounded in the quiet room.
The beautiful melody stunned everyone present, including Yvonne.
Emelia could play the piano?
Seriously?
And judging from her skills, it was obvious that she had received professional training. How could it be possible?
Yvonne shook her head in disbelief and staggered back a few steps. She didn't believe that the elegant woman sitting in front of the piano was Emelia.
She had clearly investigated it. Emelia had never learned piano before.
Oliver didn't like Emelia at all. They didn't send Emelia to learn piano. It's lucky enough for Emelia to finish her school education...
But no matter how hard Yvonne couldn't believe it, Emelia was playing the piano easily and skillfully.
Nina quietly walked to Yvonne's side and said with disdain, "Miss Sullivan, you're too stupid. Even if Emelia didn't learn piano when she was a child, can't she learn it later?"
Yvonne gritted her teeth and glared at her. "You two pretended just now?"
Emelia looked so uneasy just now, which made her expect a mistake made by Emelia. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Emelia attracted everyone's attention, as if she was playing a piano solo concert.
Nina nodded and admitted. "That's right. How's our acting skill, Miss Sullivan?"
Yvonne was pissed off by Nina's smirking. When she recalled how Nina had mocked her for being stupid, she only wanted to kill Nina.
Nina continued, "Actually, it's Julian's merit that Emelia can play the piano so well. If it weren't for him, Emelia wouldn't have been learning these things day and night."
If these words had been said in the past, Yvonne would have looked down on Emelia's humble. But now that her situation with Emelia had changed, Yvonne felt that it was extremely ironic.
"Forget it! You entertain the guests here. I'm leaving now."
Yvonne left angrily in her high heels. Her plot had been fell. How could Yvonne be in the mood to continue this so-called party?
Seeing that Yvonne had left, Nina smiled more proudly.
Yvonne wanted to embarrass Emelia tonight, but she didn't expect that she would leave in disgrace in the end. What a happy thing!
Yvonne walked out of the restaurant. She wanted to take her car, but when she looked up, she saw Julian's black car parked on the side of the road.
From the half-open car window, one could see the man's well-defined profile. He was handsome and elegant, smoking while making the phone call, looking so dashing and sexy.
Yvonne immediately felt very unwilling. Gritting her teeth, she walked towards the car.
Back then, she had agreed to break up with her foreign boyfriend and go back to the country to get close to Julian not only because he was rich, but also because he was handsome and charismatic.
If it weren't for the thought of pretending to be a reserved and dignified lady in front of him, she would have sex with him long ago.
See how she ended up now...
Yvonne gritted her teeth as she walked. She regretted being too reserved back then.
If she had had sex with him, she might have been less obsessed with him now.
Women, like men, always crave for things they cannot get.
