After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities
Chapter 812

Chapter 812

When she performs later, there will be performance dresses, and it's not too late to change when the time comes. But this man selected all of the world's most beautiful dresses on her.

Five sets of dresses were brought over from backstage alone, one for her to walk the red carpet in, one for inside, another for presenting awards as a guest, one more for performing and yet another after performing.

Is she here just to model dresses? She doesn't want to be changing into different outfits like a butterfly fluttering around everywhere. She wants to keep things low-key especially in this kind of chaotic environment. All she wants is to attend the award ceremony quietly and perform before going home.

Lately staying in Vienna has become boring with so much work piled up on her plate.

Halfway through the award ceremony, the host looked at their cue card with confusion. Was there an added performance? And it was exactly identical to Sylvia's? The piece that Sylvia was supposed to perform... but now Ashlyn and Mrs. Ritter are collaborating on Wynter's masterpiece "Soul"?

Since Sylvia was also supposed to perform Wynter's "Soul," how could they have overlapping performances? The host is professional though; they only had a brief moment of shock before quickly reacting: "Next up we have second place piano competition winner Ashlyn and her mother bringing us 'Soul'."

The audience immediately erupted into thunderous applause as lights dimmed on stage while near ethereal piano music began playing - Soul is an extremely ethereal song that became famous when it was first released by Wynter who wrote lyrics for Eden who then sang it to make it both famous throughout H Rovirsa. It then spread across the continent and became popular worldwide.

It even elevated Eden's status further since Soul's EP sold millions. Who would've thought Ashlyn and her mother would suddenly perform this piece?

As soon as flashlights lit up, Ashlyn, wearing a fair dress sitting atop a piano bench, her fingers dancing across black-and-white keys to create beautiful melodies. Everything looked stunningly beautiful! And just then, Mrs. Ritter suddenly appeared. She was wearing a white dress and sat next to Ashlyn, playing a piano duet with her!

After the duet, Ashlyn suddenly stood up and elegantly twirled around, lifting her skirt and starting to dance.

The scene was very impressive. Mrs. Ritter was the president of the Urgford Piano Association and had a high level of piano skills. The mother-daughter duet from earlier was shocking, followed by Ashlyn's graceful transformation into a dancer.

Many people in the audience were completely captivated by what they saw.

Those who were looking forward to Sylvia's performance didn't want to see this mother-daughter duo perform at all but were surprised at how well they did.

Some professional musicians in the audience began praising Wynter's music: "Wynter's music is truly extraordinary; there must be a reason why his compositions have such lasting power."

"Whoever performs Soul feels like their soul has been penetrated by music itself. Wynter is truly deserving of his reputation."

"This mother-daughter duo took Soul to its ultimate expression..."

Louis had listened to Soul many times before - including Eden's singing - so he felt extremely dissatisfied with what he saw now.

He looked coldly indifferent as he said, "Soul uses electronic mixing for its original composition and even incorporates some zither into it; if played on piano alone it will only weaken its penetrating power." "The technical skill of this mother-daughter duo is impeccable but they haven't really grasped the essence of Soul."

He felt that this amazing piece had been completely ruined by their performance.

After all, Louis secretly liked Wynter too but found him extremely mysterious since no one knew who this composing master really was... and even more strangely enough, despite being such an amazing composer he never participated in any competitions or supported anyone other than Eden...

What made that kid so special?

The Ritter family's performance lasted five minutes before ending quickly.

Both mother and daughter enjoyed themselves thoroughly during their performance while showing happy smiles towards each other.

Mrs. Ritter paid big money for program staff members' arrangements just for them two to do last minute performances right before Sylvia's turn on purpose!

They performed exactly same song as Sylvia would later perform...

Let's see how Sylvia handles it!

The host continued with a look of discomfort, "Miss Ritter and Mrs. Ritter's performance was very impressive just now. Next up... please enjoy Miss Andrews' performance of... um... Soul."

She felt like crying. Why did she have to encounter this kind of crematorium-like hosting scene? She gritted her teeth and quickly finished the announcement before getting off stage.

While waiting backstage, Sylvia learned about Mrs. Ritter's last-minute addition to the program. She stood at the entrance to the stage, watching as the Ritter mother and daughter duo came down from it without acknowledging them.

Mrs. Ritter walked up to her, proudly saying, "Miss Andrews, I'm so sorry for adding Soul as well; I happen to love it too! We really do have similar tastes."

"Miss Andrews," Ashlyn said triumphantly, "if you want to quit performing now you still can." She felt like she had finally gotten one over on Sylvia after losing every time before.

"Mrs. Ritter is quite cunning," thought Sylvia sarcastically while looking at Ashlyn with contempt in her eyes. "I bet they spent a lot of money on this program addition! They even managed to buy off the production team; truly impressive funding that I cannot compare with!" With that said, she walked towards the stage.

After hearing Soul mentioned twice in a row but performed by two different performers, some audience members were surprised but because they had already formed an opinion based on the Riters' performance earlier, they didn't expect much from Sylvia's rendition of Soul.

Some even played on their phones or chatted away during her set.

Franklin silently watched as Sylvia took center stage wearing black leather pants and jacket paired with cool Martin boots while carrying a bass guitar instead of wearing Franklin's ethereal dress he prepared for her earlier.

Her long hair was braided into locks and makeup matched perfectly for an edgy rockstar vibe.

She already possessed striking beauty which looked even more eye-catching under bright lights due to porcelain white skin tone.

With all these elements combined together made it seem like she emerged out from darkness as queen!

Jenna's heart raced anxiously since everyone around them seemed unimpressed by what would come next - except Franklin who showed trust in his eyes towards his beloved girlfriend's abilities. The mother-daughter duo from Ritter Group strutted back to their seats after their performance, basking in the reactions of the audience. It had been a long time since they felt this exhilarated. "She thinks she's some hotshot music maestro just because Louis likes her," Mrs. Ritter whispered to Ashlyn.

Ashlyn nodded and turned her attention back to the stage where Sylvia stood under the spotlight with a keyboard in front of her.

"What is she doing? Can she even play?" Ashlyn furrowed her brows.

"She's all alone, what does she think she can perform? Does she really believe that one person can replace an entire band?" Mrs. Ritter couldn't help but chuckle. Even bringing up a keyboardist was laughable!

Adrienne leaned over and asked Ashlyn, "You performed Soul so well, are you Wynter?"

Wynter was known for being very mysterious not only in H Rovirsa but internationally as well.

Ashlyn froze for a moment. She wasn't Wynter at all. But... Wynter was so mysterious that no one had ever seen him before. Adrienne's guess didn't matter anyway.

As soon as Adrienne spoke, people around them began whispering quietly, "Could it be true?"

"She didn't deny it; that means it must be true."

"Oh my god! If she really is Wynter, then why isn't she participating in the composition competition? Letting Jenna win?"

"Maybe Jenna is actually Wynter?"

Jenna who sat in front of them heard everything clearly and immediately denied it saying "I'm not Wynter! I never pretend to be someone I'm not."

Ashlyn laughed triumphantly. "I participated in piano competitions so I don't want to participate again for composition competitions because..."

She didn't finish her sentence but someone else picked up where she left off saying. "Because there's no type of song that Wynter can't compose! He doesn't need awards to prove himself." This kind of speculation was shocking!

Meanwhile, several runners-up sitting around Ashlyn couldn't contain their excitement any longer and posted on social media. "Oh my god! Miss Ritter is actually Wynter! I'm sitting next to him!" "Excited beyond words - won second place with Wynter!"

(Note: The name 'Wytnr' has been used instead of 'Wyner' due its similarity with another word.)

Everyone was already paying close attention to the Graley Piano Competition, and these few runners-up also had some fans on social media. When this post was released, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
