Do you remember me?

Maria was lying sideways on the hospital bed, watching Charles patiently peel grapes. She smiled happily, "Honey, look closely. I don't like eating skin.""I know."Charles finished peeling a grape, raised his eyes, and saw the triumphant gleam in Maria’s eyes.He chuckled and threw the peeled grape into his own mouth."Hey!"Maria complained, "Honey, didn't you peel it for me? How come you ate it yourself? You're bullying me!"Charles leaned forward with a smile, held Maria’s shoulders, and pressed his lips against hers dominantly…A grape was pushed into Maria’s mouth by Charles. Maria chewed it with a frown. After spitting out the seed, she looked at him angrily, "You are taking advantage of me!"Charles raised his eyebrows triumphantly, "I peeled the grape for you. How can I not receive some benefits?"As he spoke, he picked up another grape and started peeling it.Maria stared at him, pouting. When he finished peeling the grape, she lifted her head abruptly, "I'm not eating anym

Become my apprentice

At that moment, someone knocked on the door to the ward.Previously, Maria and Charles were quarreling, so they didn't hear the sound of knocking. But now, everyone in the room heard it.Charles immediately got up and walked to the door. When he opened the door, Rivas' smiling face appeared in front of him."I came to see Ria.""Okay."Charles stepped aside and gestured for him to enter, "Please."Regardless, Rivas was a respected international piano master. Moreover, he was around the same age as Andrew, so he was also considered an elder by Charles.Although Charles was a bit aloof, he was polite and well-mannered.Rivas, however, was careless. He turned around, took the bouquet from the bodyguard, and then stuffed it into Charles arms, "This is for Maria. Find a vase to put it in."After speaking, he couldn't wait to enter the ward. When he saw that Andrew was also inside, he instantly became excited, "Andrew! You're here too!"Even if Andrew didn't turn around, he recognized Rivas

Compete against Andrew

Rivas immediately blushed and gave Andrew a glare."So what if I am? My whole life has been devoted to piano. I never had time to take on apprentices. Many people mock me for having great skills but being unable to teach others. When I'm gone, I won't even have a successor..."He glanced expectantly at Maria and said, "Ria, your piano skills are already quite advanced. Although you still have a way to go compared to us, I believe that after this training, you will be able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with us. This is an opportunity. Give me and yourself a chance.""Humph..."Andrew sneered again, "Rivas, with your current status in the piano world, you could definitely become a mentor. Why bother taking Ria as your apprentice and bringing her to the training? That would lower your status quite a bit...""I said it!"Rivas was truly angry this time. He said through gritted teeth, "I just want Ria to be my successor. In this training, I will teach her everything I know!"Andrew disdain

Master

Rivas stomped his foot in frustration and asked, "Why? Ria, why?"Maria smiled at Andrew and said, "Because he took me in!""Great!"Old Mrs. Lesser exclaimed excitedly and looked at Maria admiringly.Maria had told Old Mrs. Lesser before that she came to see Andrew not to become a daughter of the Lesser family or for their wealth but simply to find her father whom she had shared joys and sorrows with for over twenty years.At that time, Old Mrs. Lesser didn't believe her because the Lesser family was like a delicious cake and anyone, whether related or not, wanted a piece.For example, Alexander.But at that moment, Old Mrs. Lesser finally believed that Maria was sincere. By choosing Andrew as her master over Rivas, Maria showed that what she cared about most was the bond between her and Andrew.Her remark explained everything.Since she couldn't be Andrew's biological daughter, she would become his apprentice and continue to treat him as her father, which was her deepest desire.Old

Competition camp

When Mia woke up and learned from Eva that Andrew planned to accept Maria as his apprentice, her hatred for Maria deepened.Just the thought of Maria frequently interacting with Andrew and going to the Lesser family's mansion made her furious."Why? Why her?!"Mia sat on the bed, her face pale. There were shocking bruises on her fair neck. She pounded the bed with all her might like crazy."Bitch! Who does she think she is?! She's just a scheming woman! She wants to enter the Lesser family in this way!"Eva stood aside watching Mia indifferently and said casually, "Yeah, Mom and Dad seem to like her. If she becomes Andrew's apprentice, she will probably have a place in the Lesser family."A sly smile appeared on her lips, "Mimi, what you did today has disappointed Mom and Dad. I'm afraid that once Maria becomes Andrew's apprentice, you won't have any position in the Lesser family."As soon as Eva finished, Mia’s angry eyes instantly turned bloodshot. She raised her head abruptly and s

Don’t disappoint your dad

In the following days, Maria lay in bed obediently while Andrew did his physical therapy exercises with all his might. Mia practiced the piano every day, hoping to improve her skills before going to the training camp.Rivas had already left Beijing and headed to his next stop on his global tour.What happened at the concert in Beijing didn't spread at all.Firstly, Rivas cared a lot about his reputation and naturally didn't want that incident to become a big deal.Secondly, even if the Lesser family didn't like Mia, she still represented the Lesser family. So, the Lesser family cooperated with Rivas and used all means to suppress the matter.Everything went back to normal as if nothing had happened. The only way to prove that the incident did happen was for Maria to come to the Lesser family's mansion with Charles as agreed.This time, they received treatment different from last time.Last time, they had to meet Eva's conditions and pass the Lesser family's inspection to enter the man

Eric Lesser

In the house, Old Master Lesser, Old Mrs. Lesser, Eva, and Andrew were all present, and even Eric Lesser, Andrew's younger brother who had rarely shown himself before, was there.Andrew would accept Maria as his apprentice today. The fact that so many important figures from the Lesser family were present showed that it was a big event for the family.Maria and Charles followed the butler in. When she saw so many people, she showed no signs of embarrassment on her face. Instead, she politely bowed to Old Master Lesser and Old Mrs. Lesser and then greeted Andrew and Eva.She didn't know Eric, but she still politely greeted him.Eric and Andrew had some similarities in their facial features, but Eric's bone structure was visibly bigger than Andrew's, making him sturdy and imposing. However, despite his age and constant socializing, he hadn't gained weight. He looked slightly younger as a result.He casually glanced at Maria and then his gaze fell on Charles face. A subtle glimmer passed

Don’t be cocky

Two days later, at the airport.Charles looked at Alexander, who kept glancing at Maria while standing beside Mia, with a frown. "We are going to a training camp. Alexander, what are you doing here?"Alexander casually put his hands in his pockets and gave Charles a glance before smiling. "Charles, if it's okay for you to accompany Ria, why can't I accompany Mimi?"They were the two women's husbands. Logically, neither of them should be able to enter the training camp. They could only go in during the one-hour visiting period each day.Charles' relationship with Maria was well-known by many.As for Alexander, he married Mia for money and power, so he would definitely not miss her. His presence at the airport raised suspicions about his intentions.Luna looked at Charles and then at Alexander, speechless.This was the first time she had heard that family members could be brought to a training camp!Those who didn't know they were going to a training camp would think they were going o

Private jet

Mia was dumbfounded!The plane they were on today was the private plane of the Lesser family.If it wasn't for Old Mrs. Lesser doting on Andrew, they would never have been allowed to take a private plane to attend the training camp. As for Mia, she was just basking in Andrew's glory. She couldn't even dream of using the Lesser family's private plane, let alone see it.But Linda had her own private plane?!After hanging up the phone, Linda looked at Mia smugly and turned to Maria, "Maria, why don't you take my private jet? It will only take half an hour at most, and we won't be late."Maria blinked in surprise. She thought that the Lesser Family was already a top-notch prestigious family, but she didn't expect that Linda was rich beyond her dreams."Linda, we agreed to go together, and the plane is waiting. It's not necessary to go to so much trouble..."Andrew thought that Mia was being unreasonable. Linda had just arrived and didn't provoke her, but she lost her temper. He took a st

Elimination round

After more than ten hours, they finally arrived. Outside the airport, there were ten identical Maseratis parked.As Charles and the others walked out, a man leading the group immediately ran over and stood in front of Charles, respectfully saying, "Young Master Smith, the cars are ready."Andrew glanced at the ten Maseratis there and chuckled. "Charles, it seems that you were indeed low-key before."Charles held Maria’s hand and chuckled softly, "I've been in this country for two years. It's not worth mentioning."Alexander's eyes widened.The license plates were not ordinary. If it were him, he would have shown off everywhere. Charles, however, remained so humble.Humph!Charles was just ostentatious!Charles invited everyone to get in the cars. With ten cars there, naturally, there were two people per car.Sitting in the car, Maria looked outside at the swiftly passing scenery like a curious baby."Brussels is really different from Beijing with distinctive architecture and greenery.
