Chapter 729
The dignified presence of the woman filled the atmosphere.
Sisley hurriedly greeted her. “Hello, Ms. Canter, it's been a long time.”
“Mrs. Chapman.” Mary nodded gracefully at her.
In the past, Sisley had been the type of royalty that Mary had to show respect to. Things have changed since then.
Mary Canter was now officially the daughter of an Earl, and her younger brother was the Piano Prince, who was
highly respected in the music industry.
Now, even Hera has to rely on the recommendation of my brother.
As these thoughts came to Mary's mind, she could not help the look of disdain that flashed across her eyes.
When she was entering the venue earlier, she heard a few spectators whispering, “I heard that your uncle has
managed to invite the president of the piano association to attend the piano competition, is that right?”
These words added to her feelings of pride.
It is indeed great to have a good family background!
“It seems so. My Uncle Ryan always kept a low profile, so I don't really know.” Penelope had replied shyly but there
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas no hiding the smug smile on her lips.
Observing everything from the side, Sisley felt fury surging through her.
This mother and daughter were nothing but lowly wenches that lived in Lake City. It's all thanks to a twist of fate
that allowed one of them to become the Earl's daughter, and the other the granddaughter of the Earl. And yet, they
had the audacity to look down on me?
If it wasn't for the fact that Hera needed to have a good ranking in the competition, Sisley would never bow down to
them. After all, she was the lady of the Chapman family.
She knew that at Hera's level, there was no way she would have passed the rematch. In the end, it was thanks to
Mary's connections that helped her pass. Fortunately, during the rematch, Ashlyn did not come to judge for some
unknown reason.

The other two members of the judging committee had given Hera her passing marks but Ryan did not.
Sisley was puzzled why Ryan gave a low grade even though she had spent a lot of money.
Unbeknownst to her, it was because Ryan had no idea about the bribery.
In truth, Ryan was an honest man with traditional values despite his flashy appearance. He was a very strict and
disciplined person.
Because of that, Mary did not approach him. Instead, she went to the other two judges, who accepted the bribe.
Since it was not the finals, it was not difficult for a contestant to advance.
Using her identity as Ryan's sister, Mary was able to get everything done even though she was not in Lake City but
Maredania at the time.
She was given special treatment simply because she was Ryan's sister.
As such, it could be said that that Mary was the main reason why Hera could proceed to the finals.
Sisley had to accept this favor from Mary but she did so grudgingly.
There was no one to blame but the fact that Hera was a slow learner.
The news that the president of the International Piano Association would come to Lake City had long been spread to
the whole city.
In addition, the internet was full of stories about how Mary, the daughter of the Earl of Maredania who had been
lost, was found again in Lake City.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThese articles went viral together with stories of Ryan the Piano Prince.
Earlier, backstage, when Penelope had admitted that Ryan was the one who invited the president, the news was
immediately spread to everyone.
Because of the attendance of the president, all the VIPs in Lake City had come to see him. After all, this was the
president of the International Piano Association and not just an ordinary president.
If one was fortunate enough to hear the president play a piece, one could boast about that for years to come.
James had brought several leaders, including some famous entrepreneurs from Lake City, to the gate of the
theater early in the morning to greet the president.
When a black Rolls-Royce rolled to a stop in front of the theater, everyone immediately stepped forward to greet it.
A tall middle-aged man came out of the car, wearing a tuxedo and looking very elegant.
His facial features was that of a Eurasianian, which shocked everyone.
After all, they had thought that the president was from Epea. His name did not sound like Eurasianian at all.
James was the first one to recover and he greeted with a smile, “Hello, President Kaleb. Welcome!”
“My mother is a Eurasian who happens to be from Lake City. As such, I have a Lake City name, 'Caleb.' So you can
address me as that since it sounds more friendly.”
