Chapter 330

*Foxy Damon, don't you think you've gone too far?" A few of Christine's friends couldn't stand it anymore. They squeezed through the crowd to confront Sharon. "You're clearly seeing Christine playing the piano over there, yet you're pulling stunts here to make her uncomfortable!"

Sharon was speechless. If she had known it would attract this many people, she would have held back. "I'm sorry," she apologized sincerely.

"Ruined the whole event, and you think a simple apology will suffice? Clearly, Christine's friends appeared to be tough, they didn't accepr apology

her

Upon careful consideration, Sharon didn't really need to apologize for this matter. Her intention was not to want Ray to be embarrassed, so she decided to step back, but these people were aggressive. She couldn't help but chuckle at their unreasonable accusations

Just as Sharon was about to speak, a soft voice interrupted, "It's okay" Christine had come down from the stage, elegantly holding her dress, looking very composed. Her earlier angry demeanor was gone. She walked into the crowd, smiling generously. "I was only playing the piano for one person I don't care if others leave. You all don't need to make a fuss." She glanced affectionately at Edwin, a mix of joy and shyness,

Sharon then realized that Edwin had been standing below the stage listening to Christine play all along, never leaving. It seemed Edwin fell for her

Hearing Christine's words, everyone turned their eyes to Edwin

"Oh, it's Mr. Stanley."

"These two..."

"Good taste."

The crowd's eyes sparkled with gossip. Some even started calculating how much to contribute to their future wedding gift.

"I was standing there not to listen to Miss Gildon's piano but to avoid disturbing the person playing music with the glasses." Edwin said. He devoided any romantic notions, and not giving face. The crowd and Christine were stunned for a moment. His words made all of Christine's efforts seem self-absorbed and delusional. It threw her into a state of embarrassment, making the situation unbearably awkward.

Sharon felt a headache coming on, thinking. Isn't Edwin supposed to be the cold and silent type? Why is he explaining now? And dragging me into this mess? Does he hate me that much?" After speaking, Edwin turned his gaze to Sharon. Despite his cold eyes. Sharon could see a hint of helplessness and grievance. She wondered, Is there something wrong with my eyes!"

Everyone seemed to notice Edwin's gaze and turned to look at Sharon, making the scene quite chaotic.

While Sharon was feeling frustrated by the current situation, a sharp clap suddenly broke the tension.

"Thank you, Damon, for playing this piece for me" Ray walked through the crowd, standing in front of Sharon, blocking Edwin's gaze while looking at her affectionately. "This was supposed to be a private performance for me, but now everyone is here. I'm jealous" Ray's smile was genuine, but his words were serious. Then he gestured to the side, indicating he had been watching from there all along-

It turned out this was his way of expressing his feelings. The crowd laughed and joked with Ray, some even apologizing for interrupting

Only Christine clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves. Having lived in the sheltered environment of academia and being spoiled by her parents, she still couldn't manage her emotions well, despite her high education. Her pretty face was now twisted in anger. Seeing her like this, the crowd's expressions changed again, and the gossip started to circulate.

Ray reached out and took Sharon's hand. She hesitated for a moment. Though not used to his intimate gesture, she knew it wasn't the time to cause a scene and obediently followed him out.

As they passed Christine, Ray paused and stopped. "Christine, your plano playing is good, but it's too superficial as if you're playing just to attract attention Playing should first and foremost please yourself." His words made Christine's face turn beet red.

Christine's entire performance had been solely to impress. Now, with Ray warning her that some things, when made too obvious and deliberate, could backfire, she realized she had forgotten such a simple truth.

"I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of piano playing Away from the crowd, Sharon pulled her hand back, surprised. Being able to discern the player's mindset from the music was not something just anyone could do.

Ray looked at his empty hand, smiling bitterly. "I received an elite education from a young age. I had to understand everything, forced into it."

Chapter 830

"Really!" Sharon looked at Ray with a bit of pity. "My father indulged me from a young age. He let me do whatever I wanted. III liked listening to mountains and waters, he would make time to accompany me. Apart from making her learn some skills for self-defense, her father, Ethan had never forced her into anything else. Even when she recklessly wanted to marry Edwin, Ethan hadn't said a word.

"I wish I had a father like that," Ray said enviously. His eyes became fervent, clearly indicating his desire to be with her. Sharon, lost in her own thoughts, didn't notice the intense emotion in Ray's eyes "Do you regret the past?" Sharon was thinking when suddenly, a hand gently touched her eye. It was her left eye,

Sharon's wandering thoughts were abruptly pulled back. She looked at Ray in surprise, unsure of what to think. She could clearly see the pain in his eyes, filled with sympathy and regret. "You knew!" Sharon thought, flinched as if burned, turning her head away to avoid his fingers and covering her left eye. How did you replace out?"

"How?" Ray shook his head, struggling to remember. He just remembered feeling immense pain at the time, wanting to punch Edwin. He had strongly opposed Edwin pursuing Sharon, and this was the main reason. A girl had sacrificed her eye for Edwin, and he remained oblivious. How could someone like him deserve such a wonderful girl he thought.

"Don't worry, I'll keep your secrets safe from him" he said, not answering her question.

They both knew who Ray meant. Sharon forced herself to calm down, letting out a dry laugh.

"Ray" Before the laughter faded, a frail voice reached their ears.

Sharon turned sharply to see a girl standing on the steps. Thin and pale, her clothes hung loosely on her, as if a gust of wind could blow her away, Her eyes were locked on Ray, filled with eagerness and nervousness, a mix of joy and shyness
