Janet arrived at the entrance of the Lowry Family Conglomerate. The receptionist who belittled her last time was still there.

But at that moment, there was a 180 change in her attitude. She was professional and respectful. “Have the three of you come to see Young Master Mason?”

Janet smirked under her gilded mask. Nodding, she replied in a firm tone, “Yes!”

“Okay, I will let them know.”

……….

Since Hilbert found out that Emily had finished her university entrance exams, he boarded a flight to Sandfort City to meet her one last time.

He looked forward to seeing her improvement in music. Moreover, the heir he was looking for this time concerned the whole music industry.

Two days before he flew to Markovia, however, he received a request from the Davis Family.

They wanted him to appoint their daughter, Rebecca Davis.

He had every reason to decline their request, but while he was watching the piano clip they sent to him, he felt slightly moved.

It was not because Rebecca was particularly good, but he did think that she was on par with Emily from a month ago. Even though she was not at the level of a professional yet, she had potential.

Therefore, he agreed to their request and met them at Hilton Hotel in Sandfort City.

Holding his daughter’s hand, Magnus patted her on the back and consoled, “Don’t be nervous, Rebecca! We’ve done all the formalities for you.”

Her nerves made it hard for her to speak eloquently. “Dad, isn’t this betraying Emily?”

The reason that Mr. Hilbert agreed to meet me today and give me a chance is all because of Emily. It doesn’t seem right to pull the rug from under her feet.

The lines on Magnus’ face crinkled as he sneered.

“Rebecca, this is a fair fight! How are we betraying her? Think about it—if you become the heir of the Royal Academy of Music, would the guy you want to be with still be out of reach? Think about Young Master Mason from the Lowry Family Conglomerate. Doesn’t it excite you?”

As long as she became the heir to Yobril’s royal family, they would not just gain a foothold in Markovia, but even the Lowry Family in Sandfort City would be their in-laws. By then, who would not want to gain favor with the Davis Family?

The smile lines on his face quivered. All the while, he did not notice Rebecca clutching her skirt tightly as though a lot was weighing on her.

Soon, both father and daughter found the room that Hilbert was staying in.

His assistant was already waiting outside for their arrival.

Rebecca put more effort into her makeup today. Her delicate and small face became more captivating and made her seem more like a beautiful woman. However, they did not know that dolling up that way was inappropriate for the piano interview that day.

Upon seeing her, Hilbert’s assistant furrowed his brows slightly but still invited her in.

Meanwhile, Rebecca saw her goal clearly now. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

If Emily is better than me at music and piano, then that’s that. But if she’s not, then isn’t it only natural that I replace her?

Why do I have to feel guilty about it?

With that reasoning in mind, the nervous smile on her face slowly eased and her confidence grew.

She took one step after the other, keeping her eyes fixed on the man sitting in the main seat in front of her.

On the other hand, Hilbert also did not take his eyes off of her from the moment she walked in.

With a smile, he said, “Since you’ve made it all the way here, you don’t have to be scared. Play anything you know for me! I’ve only ever looked at musical talent. The kind of person you really are is of no interest to me.”

A smile appeared on her face, and she sat down timidly.

Her hands were gripping onto the piano score tightly as she could not help feeling nervous.

“Miss Davis! Do you mind playing right away so I can have a listen?” His green eyes flickered.

He did not want to waste time on irrelevant matters so he got straight to the point.

Standing up from the sofa, she smiled and acted very politely. “Sure.”

The grip she had on the piano score tightened.

“Mr. Hilbert! May I look at the score while I play?”
