As soon as Esther uttered those words, the room erupted in chatter, and curiosity thickened the atmosphere.

“Now, hold your horses. Being able to play is one thing: playing well is quite another?

“Don’t worry, she’s got this.” Javier grinned. They had witnessed Elysia’s performances firsthand, and with her piano prowess, managing this small event would pose no challenge whatsoever.

Olive’s face darkened further, and she turned her gaze towards Jim, who was nearby. “Look at the daughter you’ve raised! Isn’t her behavior already shameful enough?”
