Chapter 53 That Piano Piece

Lexie looked at Anaya with a hint of triumph in her eyes. “So, Anaya can‘t play the piano. Then I 

will...” 

“I didn‘t say I couldn‘t,” Anaya stood up and smiled. “I didn‘t play the piano in Mr. Maltz‘s villa, but I learned it myself.”

“Really?” 

Lexie obviously did not believe Anaya.

As far as Lexie could remember, Anaya was just a love-struck woman who swooned over Joshua.

Anaya knew nothing but please Joshua.

Lexie looked at Anaya with ridicule in her eyes. “Ok then. Why don‘t you go up and give it a try?” 

“Maybe not. I‘m not as good as you. Ms. Dunbar. Why don‘t you play first and set an example for me?” Anaya said calmly 

Thinking that Anaya got cold feet, Lexie smiled even brighter. She said, “Anaya, since you‘re so 

modest, I might as well go first.” 

Lexie sat next to the piano, opened the piano lid, got herself in the mood, and moved her fingers. 

Although playing the piano was just a hobby, Lexie had played it for eight years, and her skills were good. She didn‘t play the wrong note. 

But she was overconcentrating on the accuracy, and her performance was stiff and emotionless. 

Yet it had to be admitted that, in amateurs‘ eyes, she was good enough. 

Lexie finished playing, and everyone applauded and praised her. 

Lexie enjoyed the praise of the crowd and looked at Anaya complacently. “It‘s your turn.” 

Anaya smiled, smoothed the folds of her dress, and sat down on the leather stool. 

She sat straight. Her neck was slender, and she put her fair hands on the piano keys.

After a few seconds of silence, her slender fingers rose and fell, and beautiful notes flowed out

from her hands

Many people slowly closed their eyes and listened quietly. 

The theme of the song was calm and peaceful, like the distant sky after the sun settling pale blue light, tranquil and elegant.
