The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93

There were two artificial cherry trees and some green plants on the terrace, and in the middle of the cherry trees was a small stage for guests to play and sing.

The sound insulation on the floor where all the students were was not that good, and the environment was noisy. Even if they turned off any music, the noise from the room next door could still penetrate through the walls. The students therefore suggested that Ivanka and Corinne’s performance be held on the terrace upstairs.

As soon as they went upstairs, Ivanka handed the score to Corinne with a bright smile and said, ” Here, Corinne. This is my original piece. I trust you’ll be able to play it!”

Corinne took it and looked at the score. It was undoubtedly a well-written piece, but it was hardly a simple one. Those who lacked the basic skills would never be able to play it smoothly.

When Ivanka saw Corinne staring at the score, she smiled smugly and pretended to show concern for her. “What’s wrong, Corinne? Is it too difficult for you?”

Corinne looked up at her, then lowered her gaze to look at the score. Finally, she sighed and said,” It’s a bit difficult, but I’ll give it a try and try my best to help you out.”

Ivanka smiled on the surface but snorted in secret. As far as Corinne’s amateur skills are concerned, I wonder where she got the confidence to say that she’ll try her best. She’s overestimating herself!”

Ivanka had devoted a year to writing that piece, which had been incorporated with all the skills she had learned throughout her life. If she had difficulty playing it well, then an amateur like Corinne would certainly be terrible at it!

In any case, that had been Ivanka’s plan all along-she wanted to see Corinne make a fool of herself in public! Corinne had availed herself of her ‘top student’ character to outshine Ivanka for four full years, so Ivanka wanted to reclaim that glory by destroying everyone’s good impression of Corinne on her last day!

That would let all the students know that Corinne’s title of a ‘top student’ was nothing but a mere gimmick, and in truth, she had always been inferior to Ivanka in terms of charm!

10 minutes later, Ivanka led Corinne to the small stage on the terrace as they prepared for their performance in front of the students.

Corinne found a comfortable place to sit down, placed the score on the sheet music stand, and took out the instrument to play the accompaniment.

As soon as she opened the guitar case that Ivanka gave her, however, her expression froze and she had a frown.

When Ivanka saw that Corinne was not ready, she turned around and asked concernedly, “What’s the matter? Need more time to get ready?”
