David had been scared off by the terrifying atmosphere emanating from Henry, retreating
about five meters. He couldn’t bear to witness the scene below.
“Why did she come? Does she have no shame, flaunting herself in a place like this?” Yulianna’s face
turned dark the moment she spotted Evelyn.
Mia frowned, “Yulianna, don’t say that. She might have friends here.”
“Friends? You mean that old man she slept with? If I had a daughter like her, I would strangler
her myself. Shameless.”
“What are you talking about?” Jasper’s sister, Layla Reid, joined the conversation.
She really liked her brother’s new girlfriend Mia. In her eyes, Mia was clean, pure, and seemingly unlike
the money-grabbing women her brother used to date. Most importantly, this girlfriend played the piano
exceptionally well, something Layla admired wholeheartedly.
“Nothing,” Mia pulled Layla over, “Just be prepared to play a good piece later.”
“But I can’t play as well as you.”
Yulianna looked at Mia helplessly, “You always keep things to yourself. That Evelyn deliberately targets
you, and you still care about sisterhood.”
Layla, upon hearing this, glanced at Evelyn and felt a trace of disgust, “Is she the one you’re talking
about?”
Layla had heard about Mia’s extremely malicious sister who constantly targeted Mia and even went so
far as to spread negative information about her, tarnishing her reputation.
*This kind of person dares to come to this level of party? She’s overestimating herself,” Layla
pondered, “Could she also be here for Master Zayn?”
Mia turned pale at her words, “It shouldn’t be, right?” She knew Evelyn’s plano skills too well, and
allowing her to perform in such a situation would undoubtedly add a touch of brilliance to her…
“Hahaha… letting her touch the piano would be a huge joke.” In the next moment, Yulianna

burst into laughter, “Miss Reid, don’t joke around. Evelyn, that foolish girl, was a poor achiever in high
school, and she only attended university for a few days. What credentials does she have to show off in
front of Master Zayn?”
The mocking words came to an abrupt halt, and Yulianna silently exchanged glances with
Layla, as if they both understood what the other was up to.
Seeing this, Mia expressed some concern, “Yulianna, don’t make things difficult for Evelyn.”
Waving her hand dismissively, Yulianna replied, “Got it.”
Layla nodded silently, ‘Although Master Zayn wasn’t a businessman, his connections were extensive.
Making friends with Master Zayn was equivalent to securing half of the business circle’s cooperation.
The purpose of this party was to find a suitable apprentice for Master Zayn. If Mia could earn his
admiration and discipline that girl named Evelyn, not only would her brother
be grateful, even Mia would owe her a favor.”
Evelyn spotted Mia, Yulianna, and Layla from a distance and nodded with interest
Her rebirth had brought certain people into her life ahead of schedule.
Jasper and Layla, it’s been a while.
These two were obsessed with piano compositions. In her previous life, back then, William was thriving
with her help, and Mia considered Jasper merely as a backup. This backup, who
obediently followed Mia’s commands, had also laid hands on her and Henry several times.
In this life, William, the man who relies on women, should have been kicked out by Mia by now, right?
This is good. Evelyn wants to peel away Mia’s disguise layer by layer, like peeling an onion. She wants
Jasper to see the true face of his goddess. She wonders if he’ll still accept Mia after that. Just thinking
about it makes her happy.
Half an hour after the party began, Master Zayn arrived, flanked by his assistants.
Spotting Mia from a distance, his eyes lit up. He greeted the event organizers, “Let’s sk ip some
useless formalities and get started.”
He felt like his talented apprentice was already beckoning him.
Yulianna noticed Master Zayn’s movements and nervously grasped Mia’s hand, “Mia, why do I

feel like Master Zayn has been looking at you? Has he heard you play the piano?”
Layla also noticed and eagerly awaited Mia’s answer.
Mia blinked hesitantly and whispered, “Actually, I met Master Zayn once this morning at the music NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
store. He asked me to play a piece, but Jasper was waiting for me, and I really didn’t have
the time, so I gave up.
Yulianna looked disappointed. “Mia, if you had played, you might have become Master Zayn’s top
apprentice, leaving no chance for others to shine.”
“It’s okay. With Mia’s skill, even playing now, she can still easily win,” Layla teased. “If my brother knew
you gave up such an important opportunity for him, he would be ecstatic.”
Mia replied, “Layla, it’s just a small thing, please don’t let him know.”
The organizers naturally followed Master Zayn’s words and immediately announced the start
of the piano performances.
The first to take the stage was the host’s daughter. However, her skill only reached a level-five
piano proficiency, and Master Zayn sat on the side, unmoved.
After a few more performances, it was finally Layla’s turn.
Confidently stepping onto the stage, she played a cheerful melody, “Autumn Leaves.” Although
it could stir emotions, her technique was lacking.
Master Zayn merely nodded, not offering any specific comments.
Layla felt somewhat disappointed, biting her lip. “Mia, it seems my skill isn’t there yet. I still need to
continue practicing. I’m counting on you for this.”
“Don’t worry,” Mia nodded confidently, patting the latest broadcasting device in her hand. Luckily, she
had recorded many tunes Evelyn practiced, and now she could easily play any of
them to keep up appearances.
After many times of faking it, Mia was very experienced. Her performance seemed very natural and her
hand movements were perfectly synchronized with the recorded music. If Evelyn hadn’t realized that
the plece was her own creation, she might have fallen for it as well.
From the moment Mia took the stage, Master Zayn’s eyes gleamed. He even sat up straight in his
chair, resembling an elementary school student who had just been corrected in his posture,
not daring to move.

Mia played “Country Tune,” a lively piece that transported everyone to a countryside path on a sunny
afternoon. Listening to the melody, people felt surrounded by sunshine, gentle breeze, and the
fragrance of flowers.
As the piece concluded, Jasper and Layla were left completely stunned. Even Master Zayn, though
delighted, seemed slightly disappointed. He could confirm that the performer was the same person
from the music store earlier in the day. Today’s performance, however, is slightly more juvenile, more
like an earlier work. Nonetheless, it still suited his taste.
Glancing at the event organizers, Master Zayn understood that Mia was the final performer.
Just as Master Zayn was about to stand up, someone shouted, “Master Zayn, one more person hasn’t
played yet.”
