Chapter 197

“What’s the deal? Where’s the planist?” A slight hiccup unfolded at the wedding venue.

Such high–profile weddings were supposed to be flawless.

But the pianist they had booked was none other than a renowned maestro, and now, due to an unforeseen heart attack, he had been rushed to the hospital,

“What do we do? Does anyone here know how to play the piano? It’s too late to find someone now. The couple is about to walk through here, under a shower of rose petals. It won’t be the same without live piano music…”

As anxiety spread among the crowd, the guests looked bewildered,

The attendees were business moguls, celebrities, and fashion icons, mostly tagging along with the industry’s heavy hitters.

The bride was visibly upset as well – the meticulously planned segment was falling apart, and a recording just wouldn’t give her wedding that perfect touch.

“Mind if I give it a shot?” Kristin asked gently, feeling a connection with the bride.

“Looks like she’s with Rhett…”

“I’ve heard she’s just an assistant. She knows how to play the piano?”

Kristin didn’t respond. She simply wanted to help the bride.

“I trust you, give it a shot,” said the bride, guiding Kristin to the piano.

Kristin glanced at the sheet music and gently placed her slender fingers on the keys, pressing down with caution.

Something was off with the sound. Kristin stood up to inspect the piano strings.

“The tuning’s a bit off, I’ll fix it,” she murmured.

“Is she for real?”

“Ha… my bet is she doesn’t have a clue and is just making excuses.”
