Chapter 223 Accepted The Chance

• As soon as Cora’s words came out, the expressions of almost everyone at the party changed significantly. Especially Sara, who had always been proud of Jane’s excellence, How could she allow Cora to pick on Jane like this? “Jane, who has passed the ninth grade of piano, can’t play well? Then who can play well? Can someone like you play well without even touching the keys of the piano?” Sara’s expression was unconcealable anger, and even her tone was aggressive. Nora also followed. “Dr. Lane, if you don’t understand music, don’t participate in the discussion. This will not help you except for making you the laughing stock of everyone.” She did not try her best to sneer like Sara, but she still criticized Cora for her ignorance.
• That was right. Nora also felt that Cora didn’t understand music. Otherwise, how did she dare to talk so loudly about Jane, who had passed the ninth grade and couldn’t play the piano well? Jane didn’t criticize Cora as Sara and Nora did. She just smiled and asked Cora, “If Dr. Lane thinks I can’t play well, you can point it out.” Her external persona had always been gentle, neither fighting nor pursuing anything. Especially in front of Nora, even though she was furious because of Cora’s words, she didn’t dare to curse and ruin the persona she had finally established. But before Cora could respond, she said, “Of course, if Dr. Lane can’t tell me where I didn’t play well, you can also play a song for me to learn from.”
• Yes, Jane asked Cora to point it out, but in fact, she didn’t think Cora could say anything. After all, Jane had won the grand prize in the New York Piano Competition before, but she had never seen Cora in such a high-level competition. So she suggested that Cora should play a song for her to learn because she felt that Cora would definitely not be able to play at her level and wanted to embarrass her. But before Cora responded, Nora said first, “Didn’t I remind you again and again that if you don’t know how to speak in this situation, just stay silent and do what you should to help?” In order to prevent offending the Cross family like the last party, Nora warned Cora what she had said before the party started, and this was why Cora served everyone. And she thought the same as Sara. They had never seen Cora in the piano competition, so they didn’t think she could play anything.
