Billionaire’s Missing Darling

Chapter 244

Chapter 244

Gillian stood there silently for a while. Then, she returned to her room and sat in her chair in a daze.

She suddenly remembered an incident from her youth.

At that time. Olivia had just arrived in the Smith family.

When Olivia wanted to learn how to play the violin, Grandpa arranged a teacher for her. Gillian was envious and requested to learn how to play the violin too.

The two of them learned under the same teacher together, but only Olivia was praised for her efforts.

At that time, Gillian thought that Olivia was playing better than her because Olivia had learned the basics before.

Therefore, Gillian doubled her efforts and practiced the violin twice, thrice, or four times more than Olivia did a day.

Initially, she was very optimistic. She believed that if she worked hard, she would definitely surpass Olivia.

However, the reality was harsh.

Gillian and Olivia were their teacher’s only two students. Therefore, Gillian naively believed she would soon surpass Olivia because she only compared herself to the latter.

However, when they went to participate in competitions, Gillian soon realized how huge the gap between her and Olivia was.

Olivia was like the most lustrous pearl, blooming with dazzling light.

Olivia got first place every time they competed, with her scores far ahead of those in second place. She would receive praise from all the judges.

On the other hand, Gillian could not even get third place.

Gillian had always thought that she would soon surpass Olivia. However, as she participated in more competitions and encountered more violinists, she realized that the difference between her and Olivia was like night and day.

Gillian had to surpass those in third place first, then second place, and countless other violinists better than her before she could compete with Olivia.

Gillian worked even harder. Her violin practice time was ten times that of Olivia’s. She did not even sleep.

or rest.

After all her hard work, she finally surpassed third place and reached second place. She was ranked just behind Olivia.

Unfortunately, that was where she hit a wall.

She would never be able to compare to Olivia.

During that period, Gillian felt despair. She felt powerless. Why were there geniuses in this world? They were like a vast mountain that she could not conquer before her.

This feeling was so terrifying that Gillian had nightmares every night.

She wanted Olivia to experience this feeling as well. She wanted the latter to share her past obsession and despair.

Therefore, Gillian inserted Doris Taylor, a sister who was outstanding in everything she did, into Olivia’s

life.

Doris was beautiful, intelligent, and excelled in her studies. She studied at Maple Hills University and played the violin well. She also knew how to draw.

As for Olivia, she had only graduated from junior high school. Although she liked the violin, she was not

Gillian wanted to see how Olivia would face such inferiority.
