Furthermore, Louis also flashed a bright and sweet smile at the camera, the kind that many women adored.

Micah furrowed his brows, his expression darkening, as he stared at the photo and said to Rylan, "Look at this expression. Did he look like a fool?"

Rylan paused, looking at Micah. "Louis was your only friend."

Micah had always been cool and aloof, rarely making friends, with Louis being his only friend.

Louis, two years Micah's junior, had been shielded since childhood, his life, studies, and friendships closely monitored.

Louis practically lived in the castle once he came of age, rarely venturing into the outside world. His acquaintances were mostly from the affluent and aristocratic circles, and due to conflicting interests, other members of the royal family viewed him with a degree of calculation.

There were also some merchants who were very purposeful and scheming, whom Louis could not get along with.

Only Micah, although somewhat proud and aloof, at least did not scheme against Louis.

Furthermore, while one exuded calmness and the other radiated passion, and one remained cold while the other was warm, they formed a stark contrast.

Unconsciously, they had managed to become friends.

"You are also his only friend," Rylan added.

Micah frowned. "What do you mean?"

"You two often play together. If he is a fool, then aren't you...?"

"Rylan!" Micah interrupted, asking sternly, "Do you know why I always assign you tasks outside?"

"Because I'm not a sweet talker like Andrew?"

Rylan also wanted to know the answer to this question. He and Andrew came to the Clemens family together, following Micah, but Micah always sent him out to handle tasks, keeping Andrew by his side. Rylan worked tirelessly.

Meanwhile, Andrew effortlessly gained the master's approval.

Rylan felt it somewhat unfair. If they weren't brothers, he wouldn't have accepted it.

"Your mind doesn't work that way." Micah stared coldly at him and added, "Andrew is much cleverer than you."

"I know I was wrong," Rylan said dejectedly.

"From now on, you stay quiet. Don't speak unless necessary," Micah ordered harshly.

"Yes," Rylan lowered his head.

The car soon arrived at the Spectrum Gourmet.

From a distance, Micah saw the James Group's silver Rolls-Royce and the black Maybach he had lent to Louis.

Getting out of the car, Micah led the group towards the restaurant.

The soothing notes of romantic piano music wafted from the Spectrum Gourmet, mingling with the fresh floral scents that permeated the air, creating an ambiance of sweetness all around. As Micah stepped into the restaurant and beheld the enchanting scene, he came to a sudden halt.

By the window, a white grand piano, Louis and Sadie were playing a four-hand piece, performing Beethoven's 'Symphony No. 5'.

Their exquisite piano skills and seamless harmony created a perfect scene.

The restaurant's staff and guests couldn't help but pause to admire, with some even taking out cameras to capture this joyful moment. Micah looked on coldly, feeling bitter inside.

He thought, 'What's so special about being able to play the piano? It's not that impressive. I also... Well, I can't!'

Finally, as the piece concluded, the entire room erupted in thunderous applause.

Some guests and servers excitedly discussed.

"This must be a world-class pianist, playing so brilliantly."

"Yes, but it's strange, it seems like we haven't seen them in the media before."

"True masters, they never bother with publicity."

"Not only are their piano skills exquisite, but they also look like characters stepped out of a myth, so beautiful!"

"Yes, a talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven!"

"They look so in sync, they must be a couple!"

"I heard the roses and balloons in the restaurant today were arranged by this young man, maybe he's planning a proposal." "Wow, how wonderful, didn't expect to witness a perfect love story!"
