Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 615
Advertisement
The blade cutting Avery's fingers while she was practicing the piano flashed through Avery's mind suddenly, and she said thoughtfully, "Who said I would go to play the piano?"
"This is a chance for you to show yourself, and it's an order of the president." Erin looked back at the piano, "You didn't practice the piano well, so you have stage fright on such a big occasion?"
"You want to see me play the piano?"
"I'm just curious. After all, you represent our country. You bring the name of our country, am I right?"
"Since you have a sense of national honor, why don't you play the piano in public to bring the nation honor? The distinguished guests of all countries will be impressive. Prove them you have a great talent,"
Obviously, Erin was stupefied for a moment, and she couldn't understand what Avery's words meant. She loses her temper, yet she tried to compose herself.
How could Avery give up a chance that would make her shine?
Was she not well prepared to play the piano?
The more Erin looked at Avery's performance, the more she seemed to confirm her guess. Erin smiled triumphantly and said, "Since you are the princess, I have to obey your order."
With that, she put her goblet on the coffee table, picked up her long dress, and sat in front of the piano.
When Erin started to play the piano, people got goosebumps all of a sudden. The beautiful piano music was spinning and lingering in people's ears.
"Is she the pianist of Country B? She is like Mozart in modern days."
"That's so beautiful. She is good at playing the piano."
"It's the best piano music I've ever heard."
"It's really great to have such good performance at such a young age!"

As the last musical note was finished, the hall thundered with applause. Erin carried the dress gracefully to greet the guests and looked at Avery on purpose, "In fact, our princess can play the piano better than me."
Avery's attention was still on the keys where there was no blood.
Either Erin was careful, or there was no blade in the piano. Was Avery thinking too much?
Because of Erin's words, everyone's attention all focused on Avery, who did not speak at all.
However, the princess from the neighboring country who had just quarreled with Erin was not happy.
"Who knows? Perhaps it's the princess who can't play the piano, so she asked you to do it. I heard that she has been living in folklore since she was a child, and she didn't seem to be able to play the piano. Otherwise, why is she hiding in the corner?"
"Yeah. I intended to see her performance. It turns out that she isn't as capable as the president said."
"She isn't good at doing anything. It seems that the president is only sensitive about his reputation. No one would like to marry such a princess."
Avery glanced at the president coming from the crowd and looking at her as if he were looking at someone who had humiliated him.
Olivia walked over awkwardly and pulled Avery's arm, whispering, "Avery, go to play the piano quickly. Otherwise, your father will be humiliated."
Olivia pushed Avery again when Avery didn't move.
Not far away, Mr. Lautner looked at her calmly.
He hasn't done anything since the day he returned from the terrorist attack, but Avery still dreamed about him even though she has been resisting him.
At a loss, Avery looked around again. Olivia pushed her to the piano, pressed her shoulders, and forced her to sit in front of the piano.

As Avery has been pushed to this position, she couldn't get off the stage.
She adjusted her posture slowly and was not panic at all. She sat in front of the piano elegantly and slightly raised her chin.
Evan stared at Avery, who was in front of the piano. White lights sprinkled on her. She was like an angel but was more like a queen when she was raising her head.
The ego that emanated from the inside was a unique charm that the piano gave her.
Avery's slender fingers gently caressed on the keys, and she pressed the keys hard. The fast and intense rhythm let people's nerves immediately get tense, and there was no time for them to think about other things.
It's such a difficult and beautiful piano composition.
The tune was familiar, but the melody was completely different.
People indulged in the notes.
They closed their eyes, relaxed their mind, and turned enjoyable unexpectedly.
In the end, people still indulged in it and did not return to their minds for a while.
In the silence, someone took the lead to clap his hands.
Then thunderous applause swept through the hall.
In the long-lasting applause, Erin's face turned pale, and her eyes were full of hatred and envy.
As Erin could see from Avery's dazzling performance, the piano music was so tricky that even a professional pianist might not be able to master it.
But Avery played the piano perfectly and beautifully.
Even knowing that Avery was showing off her skills, Erin had to admit that she couldn't reach the level as Avery.
Because of this, the louder the applause in the hall at this moment was, the more painful Erin was in her heart.
"That's incredible. I can't even see her fingers clearly."
"Did she play it? 18 notes a second. That's fast."
There was a lot of discussion at once. Even though the people present were not professionals, they knew who played the piano better.
The technique of Avery's playing the piano was completely superior to that of Erin.
Although Erin played the piano well, she still couldn't be compared with Avery.
The president accepted the compliment from all sides readily, sweeping away his gloom.
Then someone raised his confusion.
"What is the song? Which famous musician wrote it?"
The song was familiar to them, but they felt they didn't hear it before.
Avery looked at the scene and finally gave her an answer.
