Awkwardness flitted across Emily's face as she was rendered speechless. Thereafter, her shrewd eyes flashed with a hint of disgust and resentment. Has he looked in a mirror before? How could he have the nerve to strike up a conversation with me?

Awkwardness flitted across Emily's face as she was rendered speechless. Thereafter, her shrewd eyes flashed with a hint of disgust and resentment. Has he looked in a mirror before? How could he have the nerve to strike up a conversation with me?As soon as Emily saw that it was yet another man with the same beer belly, she hastily rejected with an excuse. "Mr. Miller, excuse me, but I'll need to use the washroom first!" Brian understood the underlying meaning of Emily's words, so he mediated the situation by saying, "Mr. Miller, let's not get involved in these young people's affairs. Let's leave it to these young people to sort it out themselves.""You're right!" The man named Mr. Miller smiled affably. Emily, who had gone to the washroom, couldn't help but feel her stomach churn when she recalled the scene from just now. She looked at herself in the mirror and started admiring how fair and beautiful her skin was and how elegant her temperament was. Then, she compared herself to the one who called himself Mr. Miller's son just now and retched. He's crazy to think a toad like him could get a swan like me!When Emily returned to the banquet hall, Hilbert's assistant had already gone on stage. He stood on the stage in a black suit and held a microphone in his hand. With an excited smile, he began to announce, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am delighted that you have graced us with your presence for tonight's banquet. The purpose of this banquet is for us to introduce someone to you." After saying that, his gaze shifted to Emily, then he continued, "Our main character for the night is here. A round of applause for her, please!"Hearing this, Emily held the skirt of her evening dress up with one hand and walked to the center of the banquet hall elegantly. "I'm coming." Her voice was as sweet as honey. At that moment, everyone's eyes fell on her. This feeling of being in the limelight is simply too wonderful! Emily took the microphone from Hilbert's assistant while the dazzling light shone on her shimmering figure, and then she held her skirt and curtsied slightly to Hilbert.Hilbert's expression was bland; no emotion could be seen on his face. "Hello everyone, thank you very much for coming to this banquet! I am Hilbert's official successor to the Yobril Royal Academy of Music, Emily Jackson!" Emily introduced her identity straightaway, not giving the public any time to speculate and gossip. Hilbert pursed his lips, then nodded. "Emily, perform a piano piece for everyone to start off tonight's banquet!" As he spoke, the guests below the stage applauded eagerly. Emily's exquisite eyebrows curved up. Then, she replied, "Alright, next I'll perform a piece for everyone, titled 'Obsession'. I hope that I'll be able to get everyone's approval after my performance." With that, Emily walked to the piano edged in gold behind her. Frowning slightly, Hilbert looked very unhappy as he asked his assistant coldly, "Didn't you tell Emily to change the music piece? Why is it still 'Obsession'?" He had heard Emily play it in person a few days ago, and the result was not satisfactory at all. Why did Emily not take my words into account at all?The assistant wiped the cold sweat from his brows on the side, not knowing what kind of blunder Emily was making. At tonight's banquet, the audience was full of professional songwriters and musicians. Everyone was looking forward to Emily's performance because they wanted to know how good this successor of Yobril really was."I don't think I've heard of this 'Obsession' piece before!""Oh? Is it an original?""Kinda looking forward to witnessing how great this original is!"Listening to the voices praising her from the stage, Emily couldn't help but take a deep breath, as the pressure on her was enormous. Tinkle! A sound came from the top left of the banquet hall. The audience below the stage held their collective breath, waiting for the beautiful music to reach their ears. The equipment and sound system of the Leaping Dragon Hotel banquet hall were excellent. With a good piano, it was naturally easy to play beautiful music. In the next moment, a lovely melody flowed from Emily's fingers, which was too delightful to be true. Roxy lifted the corners of his mouth and slowly commented, "It's unexpectedly good!"Janet, who was initially squinting, was also attracted to the music. She raised her eyebrows, looking like she was very satisfied with this piece. Hmm, I didn't expect Emily's musical talent to be this good. However, in the second half of the music, Janet suddenly felt something was a little bit wrong somewhere. For some reason, this part felt a little familiar, like déjà vu. As it turned out, she didn't imagine it because even Roxy noticed it.
