Andrew deliberately didn't talk to Nancy and ignored her in order to secure Vivian's position as the daughter of the Lesser family.

But...

But Nancy's skills and music were so familiar that he almost felt as if he were playing the piano himself.

If he hadn't genuinely liked Nancy before, how could he have taught her all of his best techniques?

Could it be that... for the past twenty years, he had been playing the role of a caring father in front of Nancy?

The more he thought, the more blank his mind became. He didn't want to believe that between Vivian and Nancy, Vivian was the one who was lying.

No...

It was impossible!

Even the most wonderful music had an end.

When Zach's and Nancy's fingers stopped moving and they smiled at each other, the large theater was so quiet that everyone could hear their own breathing.

After thirty seconds of silence, Zach chuckled helplessly into the microphone, "No applause?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience erupted into thunderous applause.

"So incredible!"

"Yes! I have never heard such beautiful music live!"

"Nancy is amazing! I can tell that Zach was so moved and enchanted by her playing!"

"Vivian is nothing compared to Nancy! Nancy is the real special guest!"

"Yes, I've never heard Nancy play before. They both played together with Zach today. Nancy completely outshines Vivian!"

Backstage, Vivian could hear the intense applause that far exceeded the faint applause she received after her performance.

Watching Nancy and Zach talking and laughing on stage, Vivian was furious!

Why?!

Zach promised her that she would be the only special guest, but he also invited Nancy. Was he helping her or humiliating her?

Andrew even pleaded with him back then!

Vivian stared at Nancy fiercely. Nancy didn't leave the stage. Instead, she walked towards the backstage.

Vivian clenched her fists at once, and when Nancy approached, she unleashed a torrent of curses.

"Nancy, you're really something! Did you sleep with Zach or did you ask Charlie to buy him off? How could he invite you to be his special guest?"

The smile on Nancy's face immediately vanished. She looked at Vivian's resentful eyes and frowned coldly.

"Vivian, Zach helped you. Is this how you repay him? How can you assume the worst of him?"

Vivian couldn't stand it anymore. Nancy's background was inferior to hers but still had the audacity to act superior in front of her.

Anger welled up in Vivian's heart. With blazing eyes, she raised her hand and pushed Nancy violently, "Shut up. You are just shameless!"
