Chapter 7 Angelic Pianist

Erica's scolding made Annabel regret coming to this banquet in the first place. She was already bored and tired of sitting in one place.

She began to think of leaving just to escape this nagging woman and boring party.

Before she could come up with an escape plan, Heather approached her again. This time, she was flanked by a group of young women. She pretended as if she hadn't met Annabel before. With a bright smile, she kissed Erica's cheeks. "Mrs. Benton, so good to see you. You're stunning. This must be Rupert's fiancee, right?" She turned to Annabel and stretched out her hand. "Hi, I'm Heather Norman. Nice to meet you, Annabel."

Heather was acting all noble and friendly. It would be impolite of Annabel to ignore her.

Seeing that Annabel didn't accept the handshake, Erica glared at her and said to Heather with a smile, "Don't mind her, Heather. She's just a country bumpkin, so she doesn't know etiquette."

"It's alright. By the way, I heard Annabel is very talented. There's a piano on the stage. How about we have a competition just to liven the mood here?" 2

Annabel's eyes narrowed as she stared at her. People assumed she was a pauper from the slums. From where did Heather get the information that she was talented?

It was crystal clear that Heather wanted to humiliate her.
