Chapter 134
Chapter 134 After all, the most important guests tonight were Cedrick, Edwin, and Maia. They were the core family members of the Big Four families, and no one would wish to offend them. Once they all fell silent, Catelyn took a breath of relief too. Her slender finger then pointed at the piano in the corner and said calmly, “Even though I could not sing for everyone, I have prepared another performance for everyone.”
Was she going to play the piano? He could faintly remember that she was good at playing the piano back then. Edwin was the first to stand up and applaud. “Ms. Clark! I am rooting for you, looking forward to your performance!” Some people in the crowd followed him to applaud Catelyn. Catelyn then settled down in front of the piano. She had learned piano ever since she was young. She felt great to be touching such an elegant grand piano, her palms were warm, and her fingers were delighted by the touch. The performance started. Her slender fingers dropped on the black and white keys. As soon as she started playing, her emotions were immediately unlocked, and she was immersed in the musical world that she had created for herself. Her soul was dancing, and the rhythm flowed naturally. Both hands worked together seamlessly. Everyone was impressed, including… Cedrick
Under the limelight, the girl, dressed in the light blue gown, was sitting in front of the piano gracefully, immersed in her own musical world. The pair of dancing fingers grabbed everyone’s ears and hearts effortlessly. That was one of the famous classics, Ballade pour Adelinez. The song was, in fact, not a difficult piece, but it had a beautiful story. .
The story originated from ancient Greek mythology. A lonely king carved a statue of a beautiful young woman, but he had fallen hard for his creation. Finally, the God of Love was touched and injected life into the statue to fulfill his dreams. The king and the beautiful woman then lived happily ever after.
Catelyn’s performance was one of a kind. Her emotions were expressed well through the music, and it was remarkable.
There were a lot of socialites amongst the crowd, who had all grown up in the laps of the cultured upper class. They all knew how much work it would require to play like that. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Jamie stared at the girl in the limelight, his jaw unhinged.
The girl playing the piano… was Catelyn?
The girl was so pathetic that she had to plead for him to save her?
The memories between him and Catelyn flashed before his eyes.
Her smile, her winks, she was so youthful, vibrant, affectionate, and everything… “Jamie? Jamie…” Louella was jealous when she saw Jamie staring at Catelyn. Her body was shivering, but she pretended nothing had happened. She took Jamie by his arms and said, “Catelyn plays really well, don’t you think so?” Jamie was snapped back to reality. He bit his tongue and then hugged Louella by her waist. He smiled and said, “No matter how good she is, she is still just a daughter from a broke family. She could never be compared to you.”
WAT Maia was the most infuriated one. She pinched on the stem of her glass really hard that her skin was almost deformed from pressing against the glass. She had reached the peak of her dissatisfaction. She wanted to see Catelyn embarrassing herself, but not a glorious moment of her onstage. She thought she should have forgotten most of her skills after four years. However, she could still play the piano well. Catelyn’s finger pressed the last note. Her finger was still vibrating slightly in the air, seemingly still immersed in the song. After a brief pause, the crowd burst into a cheer. Catelyn rose to thank everyone. However, she saw the crowd spreading to two sides, and Edwin was walking toward her in the middle. He was still wearing his signature nonchalant smile while carrying a bouquet of white roses in his arms. Cedrick was next to him, his muscular body covered in a suit, his chin slightly lifted. He looked poised and elegant. The two walked in front of her and stopped.
