Winnie smiled with her hands behind her back and nodded. “Yes. I hope you’ll perform for Laura. Aren’t you all all–round?”
Laura’s anger disappeared a little. She looked at Rachel teasingly. “So you are here to perform for me. That’s not bad!”
Rachel felt ridiculous. “Winnie, you didn’t say it before.”
Winnie blinked her beautiful eyes and tilted her head in confusion. “Well… should I say it? I bought you expensive dresses to let you perform for my daughter. Can’t you perform?”
Rachel choked and straightened her chest. “We can!”
ine nodded angrily. “Yes, we are very good at it!”
Winnie gave the staff a look. “Go ahead, kids.”
Her smile gradually deepened. “For today’s heroine.”
As soon as the door opened, the guests inside quickly turned to look at them.
The emcee said loudly, “Let’s wee Rachel Hoover, Leroy Hoover, Jeremy Hoover, and ine Hoover to apany
Miss Laura Yale!
“They are legends of Skyline Academy, self–proimed child prodigies who can do anything. Their self–introduction is that they are the legends of the future while the Smith family and the Yale family are just nothing!”
When the guests heard this, theyughed. “What the hell? How dare they say that?”
“They’re so bold.”
“They aren’t afraid of the Yale family but work for it. How much is a song?”
“It’s so funny. Don’t their parents teach them?”
Standing at the gate, Rachel felt something was wrong and looked at Winnie.”
Winnie smiled, “Go. Just do it.”
Rachel’s chest heaved violently. She bit her lower lip and stepped in with her siblings.
When the guests saw their clothes, they were in an uproar. “What rustic clothes!”
“These clothes look so expensive but so ugly!
“They really don’t have any taste at all”
“You know nothing. Ms. Yale bought all these clothes for them. I heard that they didn’t buy the most suitable ones but the most expensive ones<b>.</b>”
“What? The most expensive ones? Pathetic.”

ine huddled behind Rachel in fear and was unhappy. “Rachel, why are theyughing at us?”
Rachel couldn’t speak. Instead, she walked to the stage and stood still.
The emcee handed the card to her and said, “Please read this wee speech.”
Rachel took it in confusion and said unconsciously, “Let’s wee today’s heroine to the stage.”

Her low voice spread through the microphone everywhere in the banquet hall, strengthening the guests‘ mockery.
The emcee looked at Rachel confusedly. “Girl, could you please read louder?”
Rachel forced herself to shout, “Let’s wee today’s heroine to the stage!”
As soon as she finished, the lights in the hall suddenly went out.
All the beams hit Laura.
She was overjoyed and amused, turning to look at Zayn.
Zayn smiled and held out his hand to her. “Please, today’s heroine.”
The guests cheered, “How beautiful Laura is!”
“Long live childhood sweetheart!”
“This is the real good taste. It’s much better than Rachel and other kids!”
“So pretty!”
Laura’s eyes were sparkling. Through warm apuse, she walked towards Rachel who showed a long face.
Rachel looked at Laura in shock under the spotlight.
Rachel wondered, ‘No…
‘No!
‘Winnie doesn’t do it for peace, but to insult us!
‘She wants us to set off Laura and perform for her!
We have to go down!‘
However, it was toote to regret it now because Laura who took Zayn’s hand was approaching Rachel step by step.
Rachel who was standing in the middle was directly pushed away by the emcee!
The emcee said in disgust, “Make way for her. She’s the heroine!”
Rachel’s face turned pale. She saw Laura standing in front of her, Laura wore a dress without any gems, but she was shining like a jewel.
10.47 Sat, 30 Aug
A circle of handsome men in their thirties were sitting at the table near the stage.
Dexter apuded. “They are a perfect match!”
Joshua whistled. “Laura, you’re so beautiful!”

Antonio squinted and apuded her heartily.
Laura smiled more and more shyly.
The emcee said, “Laura, please choose a piano piece and Leroy will y it for you.”
Laura ordered a random song.
The emcee handed the music score to Leroy and said, “Please.”
Leroy sat in front of the piano in a daze. His expression changed slightly when he looked at the music score.
He thought, ‘It’s at least level–10!‘
His face turned pale instantly. He wanted to say something, but the emcee left him. “Apuse!”
Laura looked at Leroy with a smile.
Leroy stiffly raised his hands. With his words unable to be spoken, he had no choice but to y the piano.
As soon as the music started, he forgot what to y.
Laura frowned.
The guests also frowned when they heard the jammed piano music.
“What’s going on?”
“Can’t he y it?”
Leroy’s whole body was tense and stiff. He yed ording to the tune, but his fingers couldn’t keep up with it. It seemed
that he was practicing the piano.
His diamond–studded suit glowed in the light. With his sweat, he looked funny.
Zayn couldn’t bear to hear it anymore. “If you can’t y it, go down the stage. Are you messing up?”
Leroy was frightened. “I… I’m a level–7 yer. I don’t know how to y a level–10 song.”
The crowd was in an uproar.
Winnie was even more surprised. He walked up <i>to </i>the stage and said, “Boy, I didn’t know you couldn’t do it. I thought you were omnipotent!”
Winnie’s friend was curious under the stage. “What happened, Winnie? Why did you invite such a guy? So shameful.”

Winnie picked up the microphone with guilt and apologized to everyone, “I’m sorry. The kids said that they were all round. I took it seriously!”
She then turned to look at Rachel. “Rachel, didn’t you say your family is omnipotent? Jasper is younger than Leroy, but he obtained the level–10 certification of piano this winter. Why is Leroy only a level–7 yer? You don’t deserve me to buy such expensive dresses for you. Have you been lying to me?”
After saying that, Winnie handed the microphone to Rachel.
Rachel didn’t know what to do. She looked at Meriel who was also shocked. “I…”
Seeing that she couldn’t speak, Winnie continued to ask, “So you were bragging, right?”
Everyoneughed out loud. “Ms. Yale, you must have been cheated by them. No children can beat yours!”
“That’s right! Everyone knows your children are the best in our circle. How dare they brag in front of you?”
Winnie smiled and waved her hand. “They were confident in front of my daughter just now.”
After saying that, Winnie leaned down and patiently said, “Rachel, since you and Leroy aplish nothing, I don’t want you to perform. However, you disturbed Laura’s interest and failed my expectations of you. You also wore dresses worth thousands of dors, but I won’t ask you to return them. Instead…”
Winnie dragged Rachel, ine, Jeremy, and Leroy forward and let them stand in a row in front of Laura. Winnie said, “You have to apologize to Laura.”
Rachel was shocked. “You…”
Winnie sped her shoulder. “What? You can’t take the gifts for nothing? Didn’t your mother tell you it?”
Then Winnie looked at Meriel, who was eager to escape, and said, “Meriel, they’re your children. Come up and apologize to my daughter together with them.”
Meriel looked up in surprise.
Winnie gently squatted beside Laura and smiled meaningfully, “Hurry up. Don’t upset my baby.”
