Chapter 35 The “Gift” She Prepared for Lily

She struggled to calm herself.

But as her hands rested on the piano keys, Lily was shocked to discover…

After witnessing Olivia’s flawless performance and realizing the vast gap between them, Lily had lost the courage to play.

Within just a minute, Lily’s playing was already out of tune.

“What the heck? Is this really Lily playing?”

“My ears are dying!”
