Chapter 121

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw him. Moira felt very guilty. She originally wanted to continue playing, but after playing for a while, she could not stand Barclay's gaze and stopped. "Mr. Covington, what's the matter?"

Barclay stood beside the piano and lowered his head slightly. He looked straight at her with his dark eyes. "Have you been avoiding me recently?"

When he said this, there was no fluctuation in his voice at all. Only the end of his sentence was slightly heavier as if he was just asking a simple question.

Moira's heart skipped a beat. She could not help but recall that indescribable dream. Her face immediately turned red.

She braced herself and pretended to be calm as she met Barclay's gaze. "You think so? I have a volunteer performance tomorrow. I've been practicing this song recently..."

Barclay tapped his hand on the piano lightly. He did not seem to intend to pursue this question. "Do you still have the candy from that day?"

"What?" Moira was caught off guard.

She was stunned for a moment before she reacted, "Yes, I have some in my room."

Moira looked at him and hesitated for a moment. "Do you want some? I'll get it for you."

"Yeah," he replied faintly.

Moira was surprised. She grabbed a handful of mango candy from her room and returned to the piano room. Barclay was sitting in front of the piano..

Moira handed the candies over to him. "Mr. Covington, do you want to play the piano?"

"I'm not in a good mood," he said something unrelated.

His gaze fell on the mango candy in her palm. He reached out and took one. "Can you play me a song?"

Barclay's face was calm as he sat in front of the white piano with his eyes lowered. He indeed looked a little lonely and pitiful.

Moira was a person who easily took pity on others. Furthermore, Barclay had already said that he was not in a good mood. She felt bad for him. Moira sat next to him and asked, "Which song?" He said, "Traumerei."

This surprised Moira. This was a piece written by a famous musician to his lover. It was a publicly acknowledged musical love letter. Seeing that she did not speak for a long time, Barclay put the candy in his hand into his pocket. "You don't want to play this song?" "It's not like that..." Moira glanced at Barclay. Barclay's expression was as cold as ever.

Moira felt she might be overthinking. This song was soothing and slow. It was comfortable and beautiful. Listening to it made people feel relaxed. Although it was intended for a lover, the theme of romance was not very strong. It was more like the musician was calmly telling his lover about the good times they once had.

Ordinary people would only replace this song soothing and pleasant to listen to. They would not think of anything else.

Moira felt that she was indeed overthinking.

She put away her wandering thoughts and placed her hand on the piano, then played Traumerei for Barclay.

Moira subconsciously glanced at Barclay.

Barclay was also looking at her. He held the mango candy and flipped it. "The creator of this song wrote it for his lover."

Moira froze for a moment. She looked at Barclay and felt her face heat up. "So you know, Mr. Covington."

"Yeah," he responded casually and tore open the mango candy. He put it in his mouth and said, "Thank you, Moira, for playing it for

me."

With that, he stood up and turned to leave the piano room.

Moira was confused. She thought, 'Did he just trick me? What would he trick me for tho?"
