Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
“Melody’s won countless piano awards both domestically and internationally. It can’t possibly be some random girl.”
“Maybe it’s too dark and President Jasmine got the wrong person? She just looks like a high school student!”
The audience was dim because the spotlight was on the stage, but everyone still noticed that stunningly beautiful face shining brightly in the darkness. “If President Jasmine said she herself was Melody, I might believe it. But how could that girl be Melody?”
“I don’t think it’s possible either.”
It was then that Demetrius and Olga noticed Jasmine’s gaze had landed on a girl in the audience, who looked strangely like Mirabella from the back. No, it wasn’t just a resemblance, Olga recognized that outfit. She had a run–in with Mirabella at the restroom door earlier, and Mirabella was wearing that exact outfit!
Jasmine said she was Maestro Melody? No way!
How many times in her life had she ever played the piano? Even if she knew a few chords, it didn’t mean she could compose music. How could she be Maestro Melody?!
If they were to say Serena was Maestro Melody, that would be more believable, considering she was Kenneth’s daughter and a billionaire’s heiress! But Mirabella? No way in hell!!
Zachary also followed Jasmine’s gaze and found the girl’s silhouette familiar. Then hearing Olga’s words, he was in disbelief, Mirabella?
He was a bit shocked. Mirabella was at the award scene? How did she get in?
Jasmine said she was Melody? How could it be?
Serena followed Jasmine’s gaze to the audience. There was Mirabella and no one else!
Mirabella was Melody? What a joke!
How could Melody be so young? Jasmine must have made a mistake.
Yolanda was stunned too, “Mirabella? So you’re the one pulling the strings!”
She finally understood and her voice, amplified by the microphone, reached everyone’s ears, “I get it! You must have pretended to be Maestro Melody and got President Jasmine to expose me. President Jasmine was too kind and fell for your lies!”
After all, no one had ever seen Maestro Melody, and it was not impossible for Mirabella to pose as her!
She smirked, as if she had discovered the mastermind, “If you were impersonating someone else, I wouldn’t care. But Maestro Melody is an idol to many here. Did you ask for their permission before impersonating her? Do you think her fans are easy to bully?!”
Everyone in the audience started whispering.
“Yeah, how could she possibly be Maestro Melody? Melody is legendary.”
“I don’t think it’s her either.”
“If she really is pretending to be Maestro Melody, I won’t let her off the hook!”
“Me neither!”
‘Sounds like there’s some personal beef between these two.”
Yolanda felt humiliated and in that moment, she decided to make Mirabella taste the same bitterness. “You’ve been enjoying the wealth that should have been mine for eighteen years. Our parents found me, their long–lost daughter. You couldn’t accept it, so you’ve been picking on me ever since!”
The audience was shocked by her words. Who would have thought there was such deep animosity between the two? So, it seemed like the girl in the audience had set a trap for Yolanda on the stage out of revenge?
Suddenly, everyone who had been admiring Mirabella’s beauty started talking bad about her.
Yolanda continued, “Your real family is so poor, and you have to rely on different men every day to stay in Summerfield! Who brought you here today? Dare to introduce him to everyone? I’ve been trying to guide you away from this path, but you never listen. You’ve even hit me several times, and bullied my fiancé! I didn’t want to stoop to your level, but then you saw me winning this award, and you schemed to win Jasmine’s trust and smear my reputation! Jasmine’s just too kind–hearted to not believe you!”
The audience was once again taken aback. It sounded like the girl in the audience led a chaotic personal life. She was beautiful and looked like the kind who would seduce others. And based on Yolanda’s analysis, Mirabella could have been smearing Yolanda out of jealousy or discontent.
Serena looked at Yolanda with a baffled expression.
Was she out of her mind? Sure, it was possible that Mirabella couldn’t play the piano. But how could she say Mirabella’s real family was poor?? And that Mirabella hooked up with different men every day to stay in Summerfield?
Her parents casually gave her hundreds of millions for pocket money, and just her bags and clothes alone could last her several years. Besides, she was dating Romeo, why would she need to please other men?
Was this woman insane? Who in the world could compare to Romeo? What a bunch of bullshit!
But, this was Mirabella’s business, and she woouldn’t interfere.
Some people in the entertainment industry had previously asked Maestro Melody to write a song specifically for them. But Maestro Melody refused. The reason was she didn’t need the money and didn’t have the time.
“Who on earth do you think you are to smear Melody? The whole lot of us in the Piano Association combined can’t even hold a candle to Melody’s musical talent! Think she’s easy prey because she’s young? Let me tell you, the whole Piano Association has got her back! Dare to smear her again!” Jasmine said.
The whole room was thunderstruck.
Wait, so that girl was really Melody?! Seeing President Jasmine get so riled up, there was no doubt about it, that girl was Melody!!!
Maestro Melody seemed way too young and good–looking. They figured Maestro Melody would at least be the same age as President Jasmine.
Yolanda couldn’t believe her ears. Mirabella was really Maestro Melody? No way!!
Even Demetrius, Olga, and Zachary in the audience were shocked and in disbelief.
“Are you seriously doubting Melody’s skills?” Jasmine asked.
Yolanda’s face was beyond pale, but she still insisted, “Really? If her piano skills are that good, let’s have her play for everyone!”
Wow! What a nerve! No one had ever dared to make such an unreasonable request! Was she overestimating herself?
“If the song is hers, she can play it without sheet music. If not, she’s not Maestro Melody and the song isn’t hers. So, Maestro Melody, do you dare to prove yourself?” Yolanda was sure Mirabella couldn’t play the piano!
Even if she could, she wouldn’t be able to remember this unreleased song and perform it perfectly!
Just as Jasmine was about to have security escort her out, Mirabella stood up and smirked, “Sure.”
She’d make her admit defeat!!
Everyone watched as Mirabella gracefully walked onto the stage. Her beautiful features were stunning. This girl not only had a strong aura but was also very attractive.
“President Jasmine said you could play the piano with your back to it? How about you show everyone?” Yolanda was sure Mirabella would make a fool of herself!
At this moment, Kenneth and Louisa hurried back to find several people on stage. Serena already had the championship trophy in her hands. Had the award ceremony finished? Why was she still on stage with a group of people after giving the award? And why did the atmosphere feel off?
What surprised them the most was Bella being on stage too. What on earth was going on?!
Mirabella sat on the piano bench, her back to the piano, her slender fingers gracefully playing..
