From Secret Wife to Queen of Her World by Anonymous

Chapter160.

Shyanne had heard plenty about the head of the Campbell family, about his striking appearance and commanding presence. But seeing him in person was another thing entirely. The sheer intensity of his aura sent a tremor through her chest. She forced herself to meet his gaze, suppressing the nervous flutter in her stomach.

Dressed in a jade–green qipao, she spoke slowly and clearly. “Mr. Campbell, hello. I’m Jaxon and Joshua’s piano teacher.”

Gabriel barely spared her a glance.“Mm.”

He turned to Byron, who immediately stepped forward.“Shyanne, let me walk you out.”

Jaxon and Joshua politely said their goodbyes.

Before she could process what was happening, Gabriel was already leading the boys toward the

main house.

The piano lessons were held in the adjacent guest house, and from what Byron had mentioned, Gabriel disliked letting strangers into the main residence.

Shyanne swallowed her nerves and quickly called out, “Mr. Campbell, I’d like to discuss the boys‘ piano lessons with you.”

Gabriel paused. He motioned for someone to take the boys inside before heading toward the guest house’s sitting room.

Shyanne hurried to follow.

Inside, a significant distance separated them.

“Mr. Campbell, the boys have fallen behind in their lessons. They’re often distracted in class, which isn’t good for their progress.”

Shyanne knew Gabriel cared deeply about the children’s education and couldn’t help but assess the difficulty of the situation.“I suggest increasing their piano sessions. Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to teach them.

“If possible, could I have your contact information? I believe it would be best to discuss this directly with their father.”

She held her breath, waiting for his response.
