Chapter 303

Judith had prepared some exquisite pastries for everyone, and they all chatted and talked together.

Penny stood up on her own initiative, speaking in a gentle voice, “Shall I play a piano piece for you?”

Judith smiled at Susan, “Penny’s been learning to play the piano since she was six and she’s even won international recognition. We’re in for a real performance.”

Susan nodded, looking forward to Penny’s performance with anticipation.

Penny was left speechless.

The naive and sweet look on Susan’s face almost made her lose all motivation to compete.

No way! She couldn’t let the enemy break her resolve.

Penny thought to herself, “Susan must be pretending to be foolish.”

She must not be deceived by Susan’s act.

Penny took a deep breath, performed an elegant curtsy, and then sat down at the piano.

“Miss Nicholas’s demeanor is so graceful,” complimented Susan.

Penny’s every move was indeed beautiful.

After all, she had undergone years of deportment training; every stillness and motion was exquisitely graceful.
