You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 284 Excessive Praise

Nina knew that Jessica and Vivian would make trouble, but they weren't good at it.

They were both from famous families. How could they have such a dirty mind?

"Don't you two have friends?" Nina raised her eyes and asked in a confused tone.

Then some people whispered, "Yes. Can't they be friends?"

"She has sprained her ankle. Could it be said that just her husband could see her ankle but her friends couldn't? It's unreasonable that married women can't have friends."

"They seem to be making trouble deliberately."

"Don't you know that Vivian likes John? It seems that Jessica doesn't like John's wife very much."

"Why?"

"Maybe they don't match."

"How's it possible? John's wife is beautiful and talented." A girl was shocked.

"Maybe it's because of her family background."

The whispering was like the voice of mosquitoes. Vivian didn't know that Nina was so good in other people's eyes.

Vivian thought, 'She's just a famous painter and a disciple of Professor Gu. It's not a big deal.

But today's dinner party is very special. I'd better not easily cause criticism.'

"I'm sorry. I misunderstood you." Since others thought she had done something wrong, she would apologize in front of them.

It was just a matter of saying a few words.

She didn't mind saying a few words to pretend to be a good woman.

Someone praised her, "Vivian can correct her mistakes. She's not bad."

As for Jessica, it was impossible for her to admit her mistake. Moreover, she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong. She said in a strange tone, "Who knows if they are real friends? There are countless people in the world who make up excuses to flirt with each other. Who knows what's going on between them?"

Noah gently put down Nina's ankle, stood up and looked at Jessica. "You are a good friend of my aunt, and I will respect you, but I also hope that you can prove it instead of talking nonsense.

We are disciples of Professor Gu. We are good friends. If you misunderstand us in this kind of occasion, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. I hope you can think twice before speaking."

Noah knew that Leon would do something to embarrass Jessica and Vivian tonight.

Vivian was cautious and knew how to avoid trouble.

However, Jessica was too self-centered and would easily cause trouble.

If Jessica got into trouble, Kristina must feel sad for her. Thinking of this, Noah reminded Jessica, hoping that she could understand what he meant.

Noah was the leader of the criminal investigation team. He dealt with criminals and interrogated them most of the time.

Therefore Jessica felt she was interrogated by Noah even though his tone was gentle.

Noah's kindness was mistaken as evil intentions.

"How are you talking to me? Do you think I'm a criminal? You asked me to prove it. You appeared with Nina, danced with her, and she threw herself into your arms. Isn't that the evidence?

How can you be so aggressive to your aunt's friend? You ask me to think before speaking. I know what I'm doing and don't need you to teach me. You should think about what you've done. Your aunt got hurt and lived in the hospital for half a month because of her, and you are so close to her now.

Kristy will be sad about it."

Noah narrowed his eyes. His gentle eyes suddenly turned cold. "Aunt said you were good friends. I think she was sentimental. You don't know her at all, but she knew you very well."

"You shouldn't get involved in our business." Jessica was displeased. She turned around and didn't look at Noah.

Vivian hurried to mediate the dispute with a smile, "The dinner party is still going on. Calm down. Brother, will you take Nina to see the doctor? I don't know if it is seriously hurt."

Noah stared at Vivian for a while and said, "I've checked it. It doesn't matter. She'll be fine after a rest."

"That's good." Vivian smiled at Noah and then nodded at Nina to show her magnanimity.

Nina ignored her.

May had been watching what was happening. She thought she should do something to ignite the conflicts.

"Hello, Vivian. I'm May." May talked to Vivian and Jessica. "Nice to meet you, Jessica. You're so beautiful."

"Hello, May." After taking charge of the Ye's Group, Vivian had been trying to make friends with people who could provide value to her. May was a famous star in the entertainment circle, so it was no harm to make friends with her.

Jessica often heard others flatter her. It was easy for her to distinguish between flattery and sincere praise.

She liked to listen to flattery and enjoy the praise, even if she knew it wasn't true.

"May, I know you become famous in the entertainment circle because of a palace drama." Jessica only nodded slightly, still looking unattainable.

May didn't care. She just stood beside them with a smile.

Seeing that there was a piano not far away, May said, "I've heard that you're the champion of the piano competition."

"Oh?" Vivian turned her head with confusion in her eyes, and then became modest. "It's just that I have more luck than others." Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Not everyone can be so lucky." With a smile on her face, May stared at the piano and said, "Vivian, maybe you have another good luck tonight."

"What do you mean?" Said Vivian.

May said, "Prince Leon has a sister, who is also the princess of C Island. She has great attainments in the piano. She has composed a piano song, which is highly praised and is even well-known in C Island.

Prince Leon likes his sister very much. Wherever he goes, he will prepare a piano and a music score. If anyone can play it, the prince will make a promise to him or her.

I know that you and Adrian have just begun to be the CEO recently, so you must need a lot of support. Adrian has already got the support, and you can also get the support of C Island. After all, you're a good pianist."

Vivian thought seriously about May's words. If she could also get the support of the prince of C Island, then everyone would also support her in the future, including her parents. Her parents wouldn't be eager to have a son to inherit the family property.

However, Vivian was very cautious. She didn't go up immediately, but judged whether May's words were true or not.

May could hear Leon's order through the headset. Leon was monitoring in the room on the second floor.

Hearing the story made up by May, Leon asked Adrian to spread it to everyone present.

"If anyone can play this song accurately, the prince will promise him or her one thing unconditionally."

There was a stir.

It was a piece of luck.

Many people who had learned the piano were eager to have a try. Vivian showed a greedy look.

"Vivian is the champion of the domestic piano competition and she must be very good at playing the piano." May encouraged Vivian. "I wonder if we have the chance to hear Vivian play the piano."

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were focused on Vivian.

She smiled and said euphemistically, "I'll have a try."

The crowd burst into thunderous applause.

Vivian felt that she was walking on the red carpet and enjoying the admiration of everyone. She raised her chin proudly, lifted her skirt gracefully and sat in front of the piano.

There was a piano score on it.

As long as there was a score, she could play it smoothly.

Vivian took a simple glance at the score, but didn't find any flaws. When she played the third note, Nina knew that the melody was wrong.

"What is Leon doing?" Nina looked at Noah blankly.

Noah said in a voice that only Nina could hear, "Hit her after excessive praise."
