Chapter 200:

Outside, a heavy downpour suddenly began.

Lost in thought, Kallie stood by the window, watching the rain cascade down.

There was a piano beside the window, which caught Kallie’s attention.

Suddenly, memories flooded back of her time learning to play it. The one who had taught her was none other than Jake.

Jake was a prodigy from an early age. He had a knack for mastering any skill he set his mind to.

Jake excelled in pursuits that others pursued professionally, even in hobbies he pursued for pleasure.

Back then, Jake developed a fondness for playing the piano.

Unfortunately, Shirley disapproved, dismissing it as a waste of time. She recklessly destroyed many of the expensive pianos Jake had bought.

Therefore, Jake sought refuge at his grandfather’s house whenever he wanted to practice the piano.

Whenever Kallie saw Jake playing the piano, she was filled with admiration. In his absence, she attempted to learn herself.

Her efforts produced only a few discordant notes before she heard Jake’s mocking voice behind her.

Despite his teasing, he settled beside Kallie and began to play the piano alone.

Later, Jake offered to teach Kallie, but with the condition that she had to cover for him.

Honestly, Kallie had never been interested in the piano.

Her only motivation had been Jake.

Reflecting on these memories, Kallie suddenly felt her past teenage infatuations, which she thought were well-hidden, seemed a bit foolish.
