Chapter 350:

The mention of the piano evoked Lise’s previous comments, piercing Carrie’s heart anew. Carrie advanced, deliberately avoiding Kristopher’s hand. With a calm voice, she asked, “Shouldn’t we be showcasing our talents now?”

Vicky disregarded her question and asked further, “I heard about a piano at a recent auction valued at a hundred million dollars. How does yours stack up?”

Kristopher’s brow furrowed slightly, confused by Carrie’s evasion. He looked at his hand, left hanging, then let it fall to his side. With a touch of annoyance, he said, “A hundred million? I recently purchased a piano for my wife for the same price. Perhaps it’s the one you’re referring to.”

His statement was aimed at Vicky, but he didn’t even look her way.

It took Vicky a full ten seconds to digest his statement. Her expression dropped. “What? I was referring to the piano featured in the film Always Be with You.”
