Eyebrows puckered, Roxy spoke with uncertainty. "This piece..." Before he could say anything else, Janet nodded and scoffed lightly.

Eyebrows puckered, Roxy spoke with uncertainty. "This piece..." Before he could say anything else, Janet nodded and scoffed lightly.As time passed, the musical notes at Emily's fingertips continued flowing. Everyone in the room sighed slightly, thinking to themselves that Hilbert had quite the keen eye for scouting talented musicians. Even Hilbert, who had just disapproved of Emily offstage, nodded in satisfaction. His thin lips slightly curved up as he praised, "This girl is quite smart and knows how to improvise."Yes, I didn't expect so much progress all of a sudden! It's only been a few days!" The assistant also sighed a little. This successor is indeed impressive.At the other corner of the banquet, Megan squinted as delight spread across her face. Sighing slightly, she said, "I didn't expect Emily to progress so fast." Rebecca and Chloe at the side also exhaled slightly, not expecting that Emily's musical talent was this prodigious. Then why didn't she show it before? Or did she simply not want to teach them?Emily played passionately on the stage while listening to the approving voices off stage. Feeling even more pleased now, she continued playing even more smoothly. Janet and Roxy said nothing as they listened to the melody. Soon, the piece came to a turning point. Hilbert closed his inky eyes, and his fingertips tapped the table according to the melody, making the same melodious sound. However, at that very moment, Emily suddenly left out a note.Hilbert's fingertips instantly stiffened. A small mistake like that was disappointing!However, Emily didn't notice it, and nor did the audience off stage, who continued to hum a little along with the pleasant melody. The piece ended on a moving and appealing note.Rising from her stool in ecstasy, Emily then bowed to Hilbert and the audience. From start to finish, she didn't even notice that she had missed a note and was only relieved to see the looks of satisfaction from the audience off stage. If I could get the approval of these professional musicians, surely I could also get the approval of Mr. Hilbert!In the next second, she turned to look at Megan exultantly. The latter looked back at her with delight all over her face, so she knew that her mother approved of her. But the two people beside Megan, Chloe, and Rebecca, looked upset and rather envious.Emily secretly sneered as traces of disdain and ridicule flitted across her shrewd eyes. She stepped off the stage haughtily and came up to Hilbert, then politely and respectfully asked, "Mr. Hilbert, are you satisfied with my performance?"Hearing this, Hilbert pursed his lips and sank into deep thought. Before he could reply, a few professional musicians and songwriters on the side came over and smiled at Emily."I didn't expect your musical talent to be so good, Miss Jackson!""I thought you're just an ordinary high school student. I didn't expect this 'Obsession' piece to be able to change my perception of you, Miss Jackson.""Hahaha, it seems that Hilbert has a pretty good eye!" See, I told you. How would someone whom Hilbert is keen on be terrible in any way?"Where did you learn music, Miss Jackson?" Miss Jackson, did you receive professional music training?"The crowd swarmed around Emily, bombarding her with one question after another. "Everyone, I'm unable to answer so many questions at once!" Emily smiled, enjoying the feeling of being hounded by the crowd. One of the others came forward and said, "Yes, Miss Jackson is a student approved by Hilbert! It would be better to ask Hilbert if he is satisfied with her performance!"Emily had wanted to ask this for a long time, so she turned her head and asked Hilbert another question, "Mr. Hilbert, are you satisfied with my musical piece 'Obsession' today?"In one corner, Roxy and Janet looked at each other with an evil smirk. This time, Hilbert no longer evaded the question but turned to ask Emily, "Emily, was it an original?" If she were the composer, it would be impossible for her to leave out a note and not notice it herself.
