Duke frowned more. “Are you learning in the Winters family villa?”He clearly sounded annoyed.Dew took a deep breath and tried to remain calm as she said, “You know that my grandmother’s sick, and she’s bedridden all the time. If I practice the piano at home, I’ll disturb her rest.“Besides, George found a piano teacher for me. I want him to supervise me during my piano lessons too.”After she spoke, she stared at the man, who was sitting on the couch, with a glint in her eyes.However, Duke did not look at her at all.He frowned and cast a glance at the piano.He rarely interfered with George’s arrangement. Even if he hated it, he would not say anything.Dew breathed a big sigh of relief.She was really worried that this man would ask her to move the piano out in front of everyone.If that happened, she would be totally embarrassed.At this time, George walked down from the second floor.He saw the piano, which had been placed in the corner of the living room. “Mom, what
Alice was thirty-two years old, which was the most mature and charming age for a woman.She was a blonde lady. Her curly golden hair fell on her shoulders, her eyes were green, and her nose was straight. She emanated an elegant aura.Duke was holding a contract and getting ready to leave.He was not interested in anything related to Dew. If Dew wanted to practice piano in the daytime, he would not come home during that period.Just as he was about to leave, he saw Alice coming in.He raised his eyebrows and looked slightly surprised.George had actually hired the famous skilled pianist to be Dew’s teacher.Duke had attended one of Alice’s concerts in the past, and he had been very impressed.He pulled back the foot that he had already extended and reached out to Alice. “Ms. Alice.”Alice elegantly smiled. “Mr. Winters, I’ve heard about you for a long time. We’ve finally met today. It’s an honor.”When Dew saw this, she was slightly taken aback.She had been with Duke for fou
Suddenly, she wanted to give up.But when she turned around, she saw Duke sitting on the couch.The man, who had initially been reading his documents, was raising his head and seriously listening to Alice.That meant Duke was very interested in the piano.Dew closed her eyes and slowly opened them again. “Ms. Alice, can I try it one more time?”“Of course, you can.” Alice smiled faintly and said, “First of all, you need to relax. Let yourself relax before you immerse yourself in the song’s atmosphere. When the emotions brew in your heart, let those emotions flow into your fingertips like water and pour them on the keys.”Dew nodded and sat by the piano again.When she learned the piano in her youth, Adina had patiently taught her the techniques before her relationship with Adina broke apart.However, she hated Adina, so why would she accept the skills that Adina taught her?Only now did she realize that those things Adina had said were extremely similar to Alice’s advice.She
Dew’s heart was filled with excitement.She had known Duke for four years, and he was asking her a personal question for the first time.Did this mean that he had started to become interested in her?She took a deep breath before she smiled gently and said, “Yes, I enrolled in Sea City High School with the highest score in the city.”She and Adina had both ranked first.Duke nodded indifferently. “Did you learn piano in the past?”“My preschool teacher realized that I played the piano quite well, so my parents sent me for piano lessons. I got busy after I enrolled in university, so I haven’t played the piano for a few years.” Dew explained very briefly, but her tone was filled with pride that could not be hidden. “I didn’t know that Ms. Alice would still acknowledge even though I haven’t practiced the piano for four years.”Duke gently rubbed his fingers. “Did you play piano in Sea City High School previously?”Dew did not know why he was asking her about that, but she honestly
When Dew started playing the piano, he could still hold himself back from going down to make a fuss.But later, the woman actually caught his father’s attention.His father even gazed at her!If his dad fell for this bad woman, he would marry her. Once that happened, he would have to call this woman “Mom.”He just wanted Aunt Adina to be his mom!When Harold thought of that, he became angrier and shouted, “Stop playing the piano here to seduce my dad! I hate you the most!”As soon as Harold said that, Duke’s gaze suddenly turned cold.It was really ridiculous for a four-year-old boy to say the word “seduce.”He got up and gave Harold on the second floor a cold, profound gaze. “Come down and apologize to your mother.”“Forget it, Duke. Harold is just four years old. He doesn’t know any better. He’s just spoiled.” Dew smoothed the situation over in a sobbing tone. “He hates me so much. I must have done something wrong.”George clenched his fists.It sounded as if his mother wa
In Golden Sun International Bilingual Preschool, the sun in late autumn shone down, and it was very warm. The children were running freely in the playground.Alden and Melody were surrounded by a dozen children.“Alden, can I hold Mel’s hand? I want to be her friend!”“Mel’s hairstyle is so pretty today. I like Mel so much. Alden, please let Mel play with us.”“Don’t be so petty, okay? All of us like Mel. We won’t hurt her.”The boys and girls were attracted by Melody’s doll-like face. They kept surrounding her and were not willing to leave.When Alden saw so many people being fond of his sister, he also felt happy.He turned around. “Mel, do you want to play with them?”The little girl blinked in a blank manner and slowly glanced at the childish faces around her.Children’s smiles were the purest.If they liked you, they liked you. If they did not like you, they would show it. They would show all their emotions on their faces.After a few minutes, Melody slowly nodded.Ald
He would not show any friendly expression to someone who kept going after his mother and sister!Harold quickly ran to the main street, where he immediately saw a familiar car.“Oh gosh, Young Master, my boss, please stop running away.”Mr. Brown got out of the car, and his old, haggard face was full of wrinkles.The young master had to play a jailbreak scene once a week, and his old body could not bear the torment.Once the master returned, he would have to ask him to hire more bodyguards to guard the main gate of the house.“Young Master, stop! There’s a car!”Mr. Brown watched as a car drove toward Harold, and he was so shocked that he almost had a heart attack.Luckily, the car was able to stop in time, so no tragedy happened.Harold opened the car’s door and got into the car.Then, the car was driven away.“Oh, my gosh! Wait! My little boss, don’t run away!”Mr. Brown was so tired that he kept gasping. He immediately turned around, got into his car, and ordered, “Hurry
Adina came to Daugherty Corporation to discuss the Boyd Corporation project. After she confirmed the details, she was about to drive away.Right then, she heard the loud sound of a car braking.She instantly turned around and looked at the main road. She saw a silver sports car and a four-year-old kid, who had run in front of the car.When the kid heard the car honking, he stopped running.But the silver car was unable to stop, and it just hit him.“Harold!”Adina’s heart pounded extremely fast.She kicked open her car door. Before she realized what happened, she had already run to the main road.But there were too many cars on the road. When she ran over, Harold was hit by the car, and he fell down on the asphalt road.The car honking around instantly became an invisible background with some buzzing sounds.Adina felt her legs move weakly. She staggered as she walked over, and she squatted in front of Harold. “Harold, are… are you okay? Are you in pain?”Then, she saw a lot
