Chapter 786

"Jenna... I thought she didn't sign up?"

"Yeah, why is she here?"

"It's too strange! At that time when I submitted the enrollment form, there was no her name at all."

"You really didn't misremember?"

"I definitely didn't remember it wrong! I don't have amnesia."

Listening to these colleagues' whispering, Jenna just lowered her head and found a seat in the corner and sat there.

Then she began to think about her entry track.

She looked at her appearance order card, which had the piece she was playing, Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor Op. 37. she looked at the piece and bit her lower lip. The piano repertoire was five pieces given out by the organizers of the competition. She could choose any one.

If one advanced, another five pieces would be given and another one would be chosen. Now no one knew what the pieces for the promotion competition were, and all of them had to be played off the sheet music.

Sylvia had even arranged the piece for her.

If she didn't perform well, she would be too sorry for Sylvia's efforts.

She took a deep breath and listened sideways to the playing of the contestants on the field.

Every now and then, whispers of the other contestants came to her ears.

"Which song did you pick?"

"I chose Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor Op. 11."

"Geez, you usually like to practice this one, you play it superbly."

Ashlyn sat not far away, slanting a glance at Jenna out of the corner of her eye every now and then, "The winner of this one could only be me."

"Miss Ritter, you play so well, it has to be yours. I would be satisfied if I could win a second and third prize," said a woman from the Piano Association who usually liked to brag about Ashlyn. This woman's name was Evelyn Armstrong.

Evelyn was wearing a sequined outfit that looked like she was going break dancing.

Ashlyn was wearing an extremely fairytale celebrity gown today, which was new to high fashion this year and was the envy of several of the contestants around her.

"Miss Ritter, that's a beautiful gown you're wearing, how much did it cost?"

"Not much money, over a million dollars." Ashlyn gently tugged on her skirt, looking all cloudy.

"No wonder it's so pretty." Evelyn continued to brag about her, "This bracelet you're wearing on your wrist is from X? Wow, that's pretty."

"Of course, X's jewelry always sells out at lightning speed every time they release new products." Ashlyn proudly shook the bracelet on her wrist, which was sparkling and beautiful.

Jenna couldn't help but touch the necklace around her neck. Before she came here, Sylvia gave her a whole set of X jewelry!

"What's so great about it?"

But she didn't say anything because it wasn't worth arguing with someone like Ashlyn.

"It's not like some people who come to the competition dressed so shabby. At least wear a stage costume, right?" Evelyn knew that Ashlyn hated Jenna and deliberately looked at Jenna mockingly. Jenna looked at herself. When she left home, she only intended to be an audience member and never thought of participating in the competition. So she wore a white dress that Sylvia gave her from LX brand. The dress was simple yet elegant and seemed to have been tailored for her specifically.

It wasn't as bad as Evelyn said it was.

Jenna secretly shook her head; She wouldn't wear something tasteless like what Evelyn suggested on stage even if someone paid her for it!

Evelyn didn't know how to appreciate good things but there were people who did.

A local Vienna participant who didn't understand the conflict between Ashlyn and them friendly asked Jenna, "What brand is your dress?"

She spoke very stiffly but clearly enough for everyone to hear.

"LX," Jenna smiled in response.

"Oh, isn't that the brand that socialites love? Why haven't I seen this one at their counter before?" Gracie Rose wondered aloud while browsing through LX's official website on their phone. "You see? There isn't your dress on the website."

"I guess it must be fake," Ashlyn walked over confidently while sneering disdainfully: "With your income from piano association alone, can you afford clothes from LX? Don't make me laugh." After saying that triumphantly, she added, "You guys don't know this; Her godfather used to go to jail! Gracie, you better stay away from such people or else you might get into trouble too." Upon hearing Ashlyn's words, Jenna turned pale with anger, then stood up abruptly and slapped Ashyln hard across the face without hesitation!

Ashyln was shocked by what happened; She covered her face in disbelief without retaliating immediately.

"My godfather was framed and imprisoned by a villain. The president even issued a statement to clarify this, but here you are making fun of my family's pain, Ashlyn. Your behavior is disgusting." Jenna stared coldly at Ashlyn.

Ashlyn suddenly snapped out of it and tried to rush towards Jenna, but Gracie stopped her with a cold laugh. "Miss Ritter, Miss Shepherd is my friend. I suggest you be more sensible."

"You!" Ashlyn couldn't believe that Gracie would stand with Jenna.

Gracie spoke up again and another woman behind her walked over. "Miss Ritter, I heard that the designer for LX made a dress for her sister - there's only one in the world - and if I'm not mistaken, Miss Shepherd is wearing it right now. So... I suggest you have some taste."

This woman was named Lena and came from a fashion family; she knew everything about the fashion industry.

Ashlyn turned pale; she didn't expect two socialites from Vienna to stand up for Jenna like this.

Was she going to take this slap? No way! She glared fiercely at all three of them. "Just wait until the competition; I will beat you all and win first place!"

"Let's see about that," Gracie said dismissively.

Then she turned to Jenna. "Miss Shepherd, Lena and I admire Miss Sylvia very much. Can you introduce us?"

Lena also looked starry-eyed at Jenna. "We've heard about what she did in Middle Evroya; she really represents modern women as an outstanding figurehead. Don't worry. We just want to meet her once." Jenna hesitated for a moment but felt their sincerity so nodded slowly. "After the preliminaries end, I'll consult with Sylvia first before telling both of you if she agrees or not."

"Miss Shepherd! Miss Sylvia is our idol! When we saw you together earlier my heart almost jumped out of my chest," Gracie exaggeratedly patted herself on the chest while saying enviously, "I envy you!" "Exactly, you're so lucky," Lena shrugged. "My father is a fashion mogul and he really admires Miss Andrews. He even proposed to design clothes with her before, but Miss Andrews was too busy."

So Lena was the daughter of a fashion mogul! This fashion mogul used to be a judge in clothing competitions and even awarded Sylvia. At that time, Sylvia's design won an award at Fashion Week and caused a sensation.

Jenna knew that she owed Sylvia for the opportunity, but she still thanked them both sincerely. "Thank you both for speaking up for me today. I'll definitely help with whatever you need."

Just then, it was Lena's turn to go on stage. She blew Jenna a kiss before strutting confidently onto the runway without high heels despite being over 5'7". Was she also a model? Jenna didn't usually pay attention to the fashion world so this thought flashed through her mind briefly.

Gracie started preparing as soon as Lena finished her performance since it was now her turn on stage.

Lena went straight backstage after performing and held up her promotion card triumphantly while saying goodbye to Gracie who wished her luck in return.

As one person left and another took their place on stage, the backstage area fell silent again until Evelyn broke it by glaring at Jenna accusingly. "What did you do? How did you manage to seduce two big shots' daughters?"

Jenna looked innocent: "I didn't even know them before today."

"Hmph! Gracie is Vienna Hotel's heiress; we stayed at her family's hotel," Evelyn said jealously almost overflowing with envy. "Stop pretending like nothing happened; I'm sure you used some kind of trick behind our backs."

Jenna smiled sweetly with pride shining through. "If there were any tricks involved, then blame me for having a good friend like Sylvia. They are both Sylvia's fans!"

She wasn't some weak girl anymore; she fought back when she should.

She aspired to be a woman like Sylvia, no longer willing to be bullied by anyone. Although her abilities may not reach Sylvia's, she would retort and resist.

Evelyn was so angry that she stared blankly and had nothing to say. They both knew Sylvia's status and identity.

Ashlyn pulled Evelyn. "Forget it. Just watch how I defeat her in the competition."

She covered her cheeks with her hands. Fortunately, Jenna didn't have much strength and there were no marks on her face. If she had broken a bone, she would have killed Jenna!
