Side Chick Era... Over

Chapter 495

John checked the time. “Only ten minutes left. I need to head onstage.”

He turned to Wendy. “Push the ensemble and Sharon’s solo to later in the program.”

Wendy thought for a moment and nodded. Fortunately, since it was an internal performance, the order of appearances could be adjusted freely. As long as Sharon appeared a bit later, it wouldn’t be an issue.

Casey asked anxiously, “But what if Sharon doesn’t come back at all?”

John paused for a few seconds, then said in a low voice, “Then the rest of us will perform.”

He looked at Matty, who had been quietly waiting for instructions. “Matty, if Sharon really can’t go onstage, could you play two extra pieces?”

Matty gave a small nod. “Yes.”

He’d been learning the violin from Sharon recently and could play quite a few pieces. Performing a few more wouldn’t be a problem.

John then turned to Casey. “If Sharon doesn’t make it back, you’ll need to play a few more piano pieces as well.”

Casey nodded. “Got it.”
