Maggie paused and spoke calmly, “Fine. It doesn’t matter whether I practice. You won’t surpass me
anyway
Sierra’s anger flared up once again upon hearing this..
Who do you think you are? Are you so sure you’ll win? Maggie, I suggest you don’t get too cocky too soon. We still don’t know who the ultimate winner will be!” Sierra, wearing a nightgown, said fiercely, her face. twisted with rage.
Maggie glanced at her and chuckled. “Well, let’s just wait and see.”
With that, she grabbed the manuscript she was holding and headed back to her bedroom.
Sierra stood there, boiling with anger, her fists clenched tightly at her sides.
One day. I’ll kick that b*tch, Maggie, out of the Camerons!
And Nathael… I’ll definitely win that man over!
Sierra stood still for a moment, calming herself down before turning to go back to her room. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a manuscript on the floor next to the piano stool.
Sierra hesitated for a few seconds before picking up the manuscript.
It turned out to be a sheet music that had been revised multiple times–in other words, a composition by Maggie.
Sierra furrowed her brow and unconsciously glanced in the direction of Maggie’s room. Without further inspection, she quickly stashed the manuscript away and returned to her bedroom.
In her bedroom, Sierra sat at the desk and unfolded the manuscript dropped by Maggie. She lightly tapped her fingers on the tabletop, trying to play out the tune of the entire piece.
She didn’t dare to use the piano, afraid of being overheard by Maggie.
But after going through it twice, Sierra’s expression turned completely sour.
Is this really composed by Maggie?
Does she truly have this level of skill?
Sierra felt like there was a lump in her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.
Sierra remained silent for a while, contemplating something.
A few minutes later, she took out a piece of paper, copied the final draft, and then sent it to her piano teacher’s WhatsApp. She then sent a voice message. “Mr. Reed, what do you think of this piece?”
Sierra waited anxiously, and twenty minutes later, her teacher, Ivan Reed, called.
“Sierra, who composed this piece of music?” Ivan asked directly.

Chapter 332 Schemes
“The music is exceptionally well–written, captivating, and offers profound insights into life. It showcases resilience in the face of adversity and death, as well as the courage and determination to overcome challenges…” Ivan said enthusiastically.
Despite his opportunistic nature, he did possess some talent and a genuine passion for the piano.
Encountering a remarkable piece of music inevitably stirred his excitement.
After learning piano from himany years, Sierra could tell from his tone that he admired this piece
of music. She tightened her grip on the phone and asked again. “So, how does this piece compare to the previous one I submitted?”
Ivan naturally understood what Sierra meant by the previous one. That piece of music was indeed her own creation, prepared for the third round of the competition.
After undergoing revisions by several experts, the revised version was indeed impressive. Strictly speaking. the transitions were even smoother than this one.
But for some reason, Ivan showed a preference for this particular piece.
“I feel like this one’s superior. The previous lacked momentum and had heavy–handed craftsmanship. This piece flows with naturalness and intensity, and it resonates more, Ivan responded slowly.
Sierra’s heart sank even further upon hearing this, her reluctance becoming more evident.
Could it be that the composition altered by various masters is inferior to Maggie’s?
Or did Maggie receive guidance from a skilled individual? How could she craft such a piece in such a short
span?
“Sierra, you haven’t told me how you got this piece, Ivan inquired again.
Sierra snapped back to reality and reluctantly admitted, “I stumbled upon it.”
“Stumbled upon it?” Ivan was taken aback for a moment, clearly not anticipating this response.
A strange impulse surged within Sierra. She knew she probably shouldn’t share her thoughts with others, but she couldn’t help feeling afraid and simply wanted someone to support
Sierra gritted her teeth and asserted, “It’s Maggie’s work.”
Ivan paused for a moment, rendered speechless.
So it was Maggie
her. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
It wasn’t surprising. Maggie had shown remarkable talent since childhood. Ivan didn’t want to stir up trouble and aimed to maintain good relations with the Camerons and Pierces. Thus, as per Sierra and Olivia’s guidance, he had ‘persuaded‘ Maggie to return home.
However, even after all these years, Maggie remained skilled in this field and hadn’t descended into mediocrity.
“If Maggie selects this piece, your chances of winning in the final round aren’t great,” Ivan regained his composure and stated slowly.

Chapter 332 Schemes
Naturally, he hoped Sierra would win. He didn’t want Maggie to win either. In fact, he didn’t even want Maggie to grace that stage.
After all, he had once claimed Maggie lacked talent. If she ended up winning the championship while his own student achieved nothing, it would be rather embarrassing.
Sierra struggled for a few seconds before murmuring, “What if I perform her composition?”
Ivan was momentarily taken aback, his heart skipping a beat. “Perform her composition…
In that moment, he comprehended Sierra’s scheme. With Master Pierce’s assistance, it would be feasible to place Sierra ahead of Maggie. Moreover, if Sierra played this piece first, nobody would be able to discern the true composer.
Additionally, there was still ample time for Sierra to fabricate manuscripts and videos, sufficient to substantiate her claim that she had produced this manuscript.
“You could attempt it, but it’s uncertain whether Maggie has evidence that she wrote this piece,” Ivan replied slowly.
Sierra furrowed her brow, carefully recalling the piece Maggie had been practicing in the living room. It had undergone numerous modifications and adjustments, and it appeared to be the same piece.
“There shouldn’t be any evidence. Even if there is, it’s recent, which doesn’t constitute substantial proof,” Sierra asserted once more.
“What about your original composition?” Ivan inquired.
“The original will serve as a backup. If any unforeseen circumstances arise, I’ll play that piece
With Ivan’s backing, Sierra swiftly made up her mind. After ending the call, she reached out to Master Pierce and requested that the order of her performance in the final be adjusted to precede Maggie’s.
Master Pierce didn’t hesitate and expressed delight upon learning that she had composed a superior piece.
“Sierra, you’re remarkable. Don’t worry. This time we’ll undoubtedly surpass Maggie. I’m disappointed in your dad. He can’t seem to distinguish between priorities!” Master Pierce comforted with a frown.
Indeed, despite being aware of the Camerons‘ current predicament, he couldn’t bear to witness his two grandchildren being mistreated.
However, during this period, Sierra had endured humiliation, and Joseph had been beaten would’ve imagined this to happen in the past.
1. up.
No one
“Grandpa, I understand your favouritism towards me, but Maggie is too cunning. Both Joseph and I are no match for her. I’m just afraid that she’ll suck our family dry..
After hanging up, Master Pierce felt distressed.
Seated in his chair, he pondered for a long while before phoning Ivan. “Ivan, find a way to rein in Maggie and make her more sensible. Tell her to stop bullying Sierra and Joseph. Otherwise, I won’t let her off the hook!”
