Chapter 780

The online commentary was like a geyser, erupting uncontrollably.

The entire Ritter family was caught in a gloomy atmosphere.

The servants were extra careful with everything they did, afraid of being swept away by the tail end of the typhoon.

Mrs. Ritter became even more frantic, monitoring Ashlyn's piano practice almost 24/7.

Soon it was time to leave for the competition.

Mrs. Ritter coldly led Ashlyn into the car and said, "If you win this competition, you'll become famous overseas and any music school will accept you. Whether it's Berklee or other famous music schools, Mr. Guzman will take you as his apprentice again and I'll help make connections for you to become the youngest music professor in the world without any problem at all! Then... you'll be a renowned professor at international music schools and those socialites from Urgford will look up to you."

"You're not on their level," Mrs. Ritter ambitiously declared, wishing that Ashlyn would already be an elite socialite.

"But there are so many pianists internationally; I might not necessarily win first place," Ashlyn expressed her concerns.

"That bitch Jenna has been assigned to compete in composition; who else can compete with you?" Mrs. Ritter looked at her daughter's lack of confidence with frustration."Mr. Guzman said that previous contestants were strong but participants are generally young and weak this year."

"Really?"Ashlyn breathed out a sigh of relief. "Then I'm sure to win."

"What do you think?" Mrs. Ritter knocked on her head. "Do you think your mother's money is spent for nothing?"

As they spoke, the car pulled up at the airport entrance. Just as they got out, a car slowly stopped beside them.

A beautiful woman stepped out wearing simple white top, clean blue jeans hugging long straight legs, and white sneakers. Casual yet chic.

But no matter how plain she dressed, the beautiful face alone could kill every woman present behind her stood an extremely handsome man exuding charisma. Followed by a girl and another man getting off from their own vehicle too

Mrs. Ritter's face twisted into a sneer as she looked at the familiar faces in front of her. She barely glanced at Sylvia and Franklin before continuing to walk into the airport without stopping.

Ashlyn hurried to keep up with her mother's steps. "Mom... it's Sylvia and Franklin."

"Are those pieces of crap worth my attention?" Mrs. Ritter spat out each word with venomous hatred. "Let's go!"
