Chapter 211

“This is your high school graduation video, from the school’s prom,” Kieran gently touched her long hair, leaning on the table, watching the video with Julie who was sitting in the chair.

On the screen, Julie was intently playing the piano.

Julie looked up at Kieran behind her, recalling the past, “Back then, you went abroad for a piano competition, and I could only show off at the prom. You know, besides being a bit clever, I don’t have any special talents, even playing the piano…”

The reason she learned the piano was because Darcey forced her to learn from a young age. Sansa Abraham learned ballet, moving like an elegant swan. Her choice of the piano was purely because it was too big to carry around. She didn’t have to worry that Darcey would make her practice anywhere and anytime with

the instrument.

She didn’t finish what she was saying, but instead told Kieran with a hint of regret, “Even though I knew you wouldn’t attend the prom, the truth is… I played this

piece for you.”

“It’s a melancholic piece…”

“That’s exactly why I wanted to play it for you!” Julie said, “Do you remember the holiday in the first term of senior year? I asked you what your dream was. Do you remember what you answered?”

Mr. Hernandez seemed unwilling to recall this.

Julie looked at Kieran seriously, “You said your dream was to uphold social justice!”

Mr. Hernandez thought, that must have been something he said offhandedly to appease her.

This was the umpteenth time Julie entered Kieran’s house with the same excuse. The Hernandez family villa was right next to Julie’s. Julie often came to Kieran with the excuse of not being able to do her homework.

And because Kieran’s mother had killed his father when he was young, he was a bit cold and aloof. Therefore, Lucian was very happy to have Julie accompany
