Marrying the Richest Man After My Break Up Chapter 251
Everyone fell silent, then suddenly burst out laughing.Ryan’s mockery only got worse. “Hilarious! My student won the Pianist Tournament! Why would she lose to you?”Sharon had already taken her seat in front of the piano. “Then I’ll perform “Homecoming” and dedicate it to Madam Bracken.”When North heard her play, she raised an eyebrow.Sharon’s talent was undeniable as a tournament champion. Getting to show off in front of the Brackens and win the admiration of the crowd, as well as mocking North? That was killing three birds with one stone.Sharon’s music was very gentle, the melody instantly getting the whole hall to quiet down.When she was done, they responded with thunderous applause.“Oh wow, it’s “Homecoming”… everyone can tell how difficult that song was. I didn’t think Miss Sharon could play it so effortlessly!” one person exclaimed.“As expected of the Pianist Tournament champion! Looks like North is about to embarrass herself…”Sharon could not help but look at Ge

She was close. She was so close. North was going to lose to her…The next thing she knew, the crowd fell silent again upon hearing music that sounded elegant, yet intimidating.Unlike Sharon, North’s performance of “Homecoming” evoked a sense of melancholy.The music itself seemed to paint a picture of an unforgiving winter, and everyone could almost see soldiers and horses right in front of them.That style and sense of melancholy… They all suddenly remembered why this song was called “Homecoming”.The song’s imagery of violent war gradually calmed, as if the dust was settling on a battle.When the performance was done, everyone stared. Some even cried.A few moments later, the hall erupted in chaotic discussion.“I get it now… this wasn’t talking about a traveler who missed her homeland at all.”“This was written for soldiers guarding the front line! What the heck was Sharon performing, then?“I remember now. Didn’t Paige Bracken get adopted by a family of soldiers before s

Everyone silently figured out what Gerald meant.How could such a biased man with an inability to tell between good and bad playing become a judge?Madam Bracken, too, scoffed. “Preposterous! Do you think we don’t have ears?”Ryan was embarrassed, but he pushed through anyway. “Mr. Howard, Madam Bracken, I’ll be blunt with you. The rest of you aren’t experts on the piano, so you wouldn’t know the difference. But as a judge, of course, I’m going to analyze it from every possible perspective.“Truly, Sharon was the one who played this song better.”North smiled slightly. “Please explain how Miss Sharon played it better, Mr. Keys. In terms of technical difficulty, my performance surpassed hers. In terms of smoothness, I believe everyone could see the results for themselves.”“Why, you…” Ryan turned red in the face. After a moment of being unable to answer North’s question, he got angry and yelled, “Miss North! I’m Ivan Ivory’s student. Are you questioning my professionalism?!” Iva

“What a joke!” Ivan interrupted him mercilessly. “Sharon’s performance was stiff, unrefined, and showed zero understanding of the piece. The high notes didn’t flow together and neither did the low notes. By what standards are you judging her performance?!”Ryan and Sharon paled in response to his words, shaking as if they were about to faint.Sharon’s hands balled into fists as she bit her lip.She did not expect Ivan to be this merciless in his criticism!It did not matter if her performance was not as good as North’s! She was the eldest Lane heiress. She was meant for that title!Ivan scoffed. “The way I see it, I don’t want a student with ears like yours.”Was he trying to expel him?! Ryan was terrified. He had begged Ivan to accept him as his student despite being a full twelve years older than he was, and he had used his identity as Ivan’s student to reap many benefits. If he was expelled…Ryan hastily shook his head. “No, Mr. Ivory, please listen! O-Of course I know Miss

Boom! Sharon felt like she had just been struck by thunder, and her mind had just blown up.Gerald’s words knocked some sense into everyone.Of course! If North was a better pianist than Sharon, and she was Ivan Ivory’s sister, how did she lose the tournament?Moreover, how did she get accused of “seducing the judges”?North put on a thoughtful tone. “Hmm… that’s weird. I play the piano better than Miss Sharon does, and yet she’s the champion. Did her skills go downhill that quickly, or… was there something fishy about that tournament? What do you think, Mr. Keys?”Sharon began trembling as she broke out into a cold sweat.Ryan gulped. “O-Of course there’s nothing fishy about the tournament. The judges all decided she was the winner, and the judging criteria were mostly objective.“M-Maybe the judges just liked Sharon more at the time…”“Really?” Ivan interrupted him mercilessly. “Even at a time like this, you’re still making up excuses for yourself!“If their performances wer

Sharon claimed she was ill and excused herself, but everyone knew the real reason she left.Madam Bracken said plainly, “If you know you’re sick, then you shouldn’t have left the house. Don’t ruin such an important day for me.”Sharon’s face paled. She could tell Madam Bracken was mocking her.However, the only thing she could do was grit her teeth and endure everyone’s disapproving gazes. “You’re right, Madam Bracken. I’ll be leaving, then.”She did not understand how Ivan Ivory was related to North Myers.Siblings? Yeah, right! If Ivan Ivory was connected to North, then how did the Myers family kick her out?“At this point, other people’s opinions don’t matter. You need to find a way to steal Gerald’s heart,” Mr. Lane said coldly. “Do I need to teach you everything?”Sharon lowered her head. He was right. She was one of the most eligible heiresses around, and she had her own business. She was just as capable as Gerald was.North was the kind of woman who only knew how to depe

Everyone went silent.Ivan frowned. Obviously, he could not let Gerald listen. “Mr. Howard, North and I have some catching up to do…”“If you’re not siblings, then you wouldn’t mind if I stuck around while you talked, right?” Gerald smiled.Ivan gulped. He finally understood what it meant to shoot himself in the foot. “Um… what do you think, North?”Gerald smiled at her. “May I tag along, Mrs. Howard?”North said nothing.She had the feeling that if she said no, she would not live to see another day.“S-Since Gerald wants to hear it, then let him hear. It’s not like you have any secrets you want to confide in me, right, Mr. Ivory?”Ivan got the hint, so he replied, “Alright. This way, please, Mr. Howard.”The three of them walked to a corner of the room. Ivan clicked his tongue. This was going to be difficult with Gerald present.However, it was still possible to test him.Ivan put on a casual tone and said, “Mr. Howard, I wanted to ask North about the Pianist Tournament fou

“I mean Mr. Howard no ill will, but since you married him, I’ll need to get to know him. Besides, Gerald’s been trying to track Starlight down. You need to be careful not to get busted.”“Got it. Get back in there.”After Ivan left, North stood there as she mentally replayed what Ivan told her.Her? Defending Gerald?She was not doing that. It was just an instinctive action. That did not count as defending him.She just did not want people to get the wrong idea about Gerald.…After the party was over, North returned to her room and fell asleep after some time.Outside the room, Connor said with his head hung low, “Mr. Gerald, someone wiped all the information related to the Pianist Tournament back then. We found nothing.”Gerald narrowed his eyes. “Nothing at all?”“Yes, it was someone from North Aurope. I’m sorry I couldn’t do what you asked.”Gerald suddenly chuckled. North Aurope. Again?Nicholas, Roque, and Ivan were all unusually concerned about North, and all of them
