Chapter 816

When she cback from the washroom, Ewas surprised to find a piano placed in the middle of the store with Conrad sitting nearby. She turned and looked at Conrad. “What are you doing here?”

Conrad glanced at her coldly before sipping a cup of tea that was served to him by the store’s staff. “I’ve heard you are quite free lately. Were you learning piano?”

Eswallowed her saliva and scanned her surroundings with caution. Fia and Sophia were not in the vicinity. She was afraid that her secret would be uncovered if there was no mole on her bottom. So she asked Peter to manually plant one for her this morning.

Sophia probably saw the mole when she pulled her pants down earlier. So her secret was still safe.

Still, she did not understand why Conrad brought the piano over.

“I had a friend who loves playing the piano. So I knew one thing or two about the piano… and I don’t want to do research anymore after coming back to Fortuna. So I tried learning to play instruments on my own.”

“I see.” Conrad crossed his legs and said coldly, putting the tea cup onto the table. He raised his head and gazed at her with a nonchalant attitude.

Esme’s heart began to race as she saw this. Conrad would always gaze at her like this a long tago. She stepped forward and asked, “You like the piano too? What song do you like?” Conrad asked calmly, “Was that friend EManning?”

Egave a saddened face. “Yes.”

“Then I believe you know about this piano?” Conrad asked again.

A dreamy hope rose in Esme’s heart when she looked at the piano again. Of course she knew this piano. It was her first piano, the one that had always been placed in her bedroom at home. So… Conrad brought this piano out of her sealed home, after the Mannings had filed for bankruptcy, because it reminded him of her…?

“This looks like an old piano but it does look pricey.” Esaid, “Where did you get it from?”

Ignoring her question for a few minutes, Conrad said coldly, “It’s Esme’s piano.”

Ecrossed her fingers, trying her darndest to stay calm. “Why have you brought it here?”

“You and Eare friends. And you’ve started learning to play piano lately. So I thought this would be a good gift for you,” Conrad said. His tone was flat and cold but to Eit had a whole different meaning. She was sure now that Conrad still harboured feelings for EManning!

“Then, what song would you like to listen to? I can try playing it for you even though I might not be as good as Esme. I’ll still do my best though.”

Tiger glared at Ecoldly. If it were not for his boss saying that he wanted to play pretend, he would have rushed forward and slapped her into oblivion!

Conrad thought about it for a few moments and realized that he did not really listen to music

all that much. And he could not remember what song Eliked. Every tEplayed a song for him, he would simply sit there while doing work on his phone.

“Mr. Maxwell?” Easked with a gentle tone, “What song would you like to listen to?”

“Up to you,” Conrad said.

“Then I’ll play any song that I know.” Esat at the piano that had accompanied her for years. After ssound tests, she began to play a song.

As the introduction of the song was played, notes that were soft and leisurely, like the flow of a stream, could be felt in the air. The song went on and on, all the way to the outro, delivering a mixed sentiment of hopeful bliss and regretful sorrow. It was as though this song narrated Esme’s own thoughts and regrets.

The song was beautiful and masterfully played. Everyone in the store could not help but be enchanted by it.

Conrad sent smessages with sparts of the song recorded attached to Fia. When Fia listened to the song, her face turned sullen.

Sophia asked, “Who’s playing the song? That homewrecker?”

“Do you like it?” Fia asked.

Sophia answered earnestly, “I don’t understand music at all. But it does have a good ring to it. What’s the song called?”

Fia gave a sarcastic smirk. “It’s Mariage d’amour, by Richard Clayderman.”
