“It would be even better if he brought her here. Think about it. If you were Simon and found out that the female companion you brought here was involved with another man, how would you react?” Ruth’s tone rose slightly.

“I understand now,” Hannah immediately replied.

“Let’s wait and see. I want to see how charming this woman is to make Simon so infatuated.” Ruth raised her chin. slightly and stared at the stage in front of her.

Leon was supposed to be the first to perform tonight.

No sooner had Marina changed her clothes than a staff member came over to urge her.

The agent quickly led Marina out.

“Marina, good luck!” Leon made a gesture standing for victory.

“Good luck!” The agent did so, too.

Marina rolled her eyes at the two of them. At this moment, the host had already completed his opening remarks and the introduction to the first program in a sonorous and powerful way.

Marina immediately lifted the hemline of her skirt and went on stage.

In the middle of the stage was a black piano.

When Marina was walking on the stage, she instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

Even the pupils of Simon, who was a little bored, constricted slightly.

“Why is she here?”

However, Marina behaved as if she hadn’t noticed the gazes from all directions. She calmly sat on the piano stool.

After she got ready, she nodded slightly at the band conductor.

The next moment, a burst of passionate music broke out in the hall.

Marina’s slender fingers were dancing briskly on the black and white keys.

A beam of light from a spotlight was shining directly on the top of her head.

Her beautiful face was displayed in front of the audience.

Her expression was resolute, and her gaze was firm.

At this point, she seemed to be incarnated as the protagonist in the melody.

With courage and determination, she cleared all obstacles and obstructions on the way forward and then climbed up the highest mountain.

The audience’s emotions were stirred by the music.

People were excited as if they were about to charge ahead in battle.

Off the stage, Simon’s gaze was fixed on Marina.

He hadn’t known before that she could play the piano so well.

How many more pleasant surprises could Marina bring him?

Finally, Marina ended her performance perfectly.

The audience was still immersed in the shock brought by the music just now.

The moment Marina got up to bow, people finally came back to their senses. Then, thunderous applause broke out

in the hall.

Moreover, even when the host went on stage again, the applause didn’t seem to be subsiding.

Hannah, who was sitting in the audience, almost tore her dress with her fingers.

No matter how much she did not want to admit it, she could not change the fact that this woman had just given a sensational performance just now.

Even Hannah herself felt that it was impossible for her to achieve such an effect.

“This woman can play the piano so well. Why have I never seen her play the piano before?

“Why have I never heard of her before?”

Hannah looked in the direction of Simon. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

As expected, Simon’s gaze followed the woman until she went off the stage.

Hannah was so angry that her face turned more gloomy..

And the expression of Ruth beside Hannah changed slightly, too.

However, Ruth’s willpower was much better than Hannah’s, so Ruth recovered in a short while.

“Why are you so nervous? Are you frightened by such a small trick of hers?”

Hannah immediately restrained the emotions on her face.

“You have to remember who you are. Don’t lower yourself for the sake of those actresses.” Ruth said coldly.

“All right!” Hannah quickly replied.

“Well, so what even if she can play the piano so well?

“I am the candidate chosen by Ruth for the next hostess of the Hernandez family.

“I have been cultivated according to the standards of the hostess of the Hernandez family since I was young.

“I will be the next hostess of the first wealthy family in Janeborough in the future.

“So, I mustn’t be stunned by such a small scene.”

Hannah immediately adjusted her expression and sitting posture..

She was now again the young lady from a wealthy family who was high above.

Ruth and Hannah hadn’t recognized up to now who Marina was.

Chapter 123

In the past, Marina rarely attended those boring gatherings of people from wealthy families.

She was completely focused on her own affairs.

Then, she disappeared for three years. In the circle of people from wealday families in Janeborough, people only knew that the Bailey family had an eldest daughter.

But they knew very little about her.

They did not even know what she looked like.

After Marina came down from the stage, Leon and the agent immediately went up to welcome her.

Both of them stared at Marina with tears in their eyes.

“What are you doing?” Marina frowned.

“Marina, are you sure you don’t want a career in piano? I can guarantee that I will make you a second Leon.

“Or rather, you’ll definitely be a pianist who surpasses Leon! Leon can’t be compared to you at all! He’s no match for you!” Leon’s agent looked at Marina excitedly.

Leon was so embarrassed that he could say nothing.

He thought, “I’m still here!

“Can you care a little about my feelings?”

“I’m not interested,” Marina repliedHazily.

“Don’t refuse so quickly. You can think it over. This is my business card. If you want to enter the piano industry, you must come to me!” Leon’s agent respectfully handed over his business card to Marina.

“Thank you. I don’t have that intention. Marina did not even raise her hand.

After all, if she had no intention of being a pianist at all, she wouldn’t give the agent any hope.

“Even if I’ve already guessed this result, I still won’t give up.” The agent let out a long sigh.

Then, he glanced at Leon, who was beside him.

The agent heaved a heavier sigh.

He finally understood why Leon’s teacher would sigh when seeing Leon each time.

After all, compared to Marina, Leon didn’t have sufficient talent.

“Well, now that the problem has been solved, I’ll go back now.” Marina didn’t intend to stay here for long.

She was afraid that on such an occasion, she might even encounter acquaintances.

If so, it would probably be too late for her to leave.

“There will be a banquet later. Marina, don’t you want to stay here for fun? There are many big shots here today,” Leon asked.

“No, I don’t.” She was afraid of the big shots.

“Well, I’ll walk you out.” Seeing Marina’s expression, Lon did not insist on it.

Marina’s personality had always been different from those of others.

Those things that other people tried hard to fight for seemed to be worthless to her.

“No need. I’ll go back by myself. Marina knew that Leon still had a lot of things to do, so she didn’t want to waste

his time.

She turned around and was about to leave.

However, the next moment, Marina saw someone blocking her way.
