Chapter 222 Bring On The Competition
- It’s a good suggestion. It’s been a long time since they competed against each other.” There were other wealthy wives who conformed. Nora agreed with this proposal and even offered to increase the reward. “Yes, you have to encourage each other to make progress. Let them compete today, and I will give my bracelet to the one who performs the best.“” Nora generously took off the bracelet she was wearing. Someone immediately recognized it. “Isn’t this the gemstone bracelet that Byron bought at auction at the beginning of the year for 3.4 million dollars?” “Yeah, Byron knew I liked this one, so he bought it at auction and gave it to me.” While mentioning Byron, Nora couldn’t hide her smile. Some catered to her pleasure and praised him: “Byron is very filial.” Then Nora’s smile became even brighter. But Cora, who was also close to Byron, couldn’t be happy after hearing these compliments.
- Because she always felt that Nora took out the bracelet Byron gave her to increase the competition award, and she had other intentions. It seemed to imply that whoever among the competitors got this bracelet would be equivalent to getting Byron himself. Hearing that those socialites and young ladies had their eyes lit up, they were all eager to try. As a result, there were piano performances one after another. One of the socialite daughters performed Polkarakoff. While listening to the cheerful performance, Nora and Sara were laughing and commenting.
- “This is a sixth-grade track, not bad.” “The melody is colorful.” Next was an E-major piece played by the Pope family’s daughter. Amidst the soft music, Sara seemed intoxicated. “This is an eight-level repertoire with a good foundation.” Nora also admired it very much. “It’s like a dream and an illusion, both true and false. It’s like a long stream of water, like a turbulent wave crashing on the shore.” Many others volunteered to perform, ranging from the fifth-grade piano repertoire to the eighth-grade. Nora and Sara both gave good advice and praise. After the socialites had finished their performances, Nora suddenly urged, “Jane, go up and show us what you can do. I haven’t heard you play the piano for a long time.” Then one of the wealthy wives laughed and said, “I’ve heard Miss Yoris play the piano before, and it feels like a master level.” Someone hurriedly asked Sara, “Did Miss Yoris pass the tenth level?” Sara quickly smiled and said, “No, just level nine.” “It’s amazing! She’s such an outstanding surgeon in the cardiac surgery department and so good at playing the piano.”
