Chapter 32 “Even those words would hurt that child.” “Then isn't that actually a good thing? She won't be able to break out on her own, but there will be many people outside to help her.” “Leonard.” Leonard was not a good person. Neither Aiden nor Aurelia, who had been commoners all their lives since birth, could ever understand his arrogance. That made Leonard an even more cruel person. But what was even more cruel was himself. “Even if she doesn't like it, it…-

Chapter 31 By the time Aiden became Leonar's accompanist, Leonar would often go to other musicians' concerts whenever he had free time. He said that everyone lived in a different world, and that he had to listen to other people's music to learn about more of those worlds. Whenever Leonar went to a musician's concert, he absorbed another person's life and made it his own. Aiden thought that was Leonar's talent, as well as the result of his own efforts. "Did any of them even learn…

Chapter 30 Since she had sent the sheet music, she would have to attend every recital that was held for the time being. In particular, recitals by newly debuted musicians were scheduled at awkward times rather than during the prime hours, so it would be difficult to continue working at the workshop while attending them. “I can't stop you even if I try. So go ahead.” “Thank you, Father.” “That damn piano is the problem. The moment you start tinkering away at it, you want to run…

Chapter 29 It was to the point that he could not even move the distance between them back to how it had been before. Leonard raised one corner of his mouth crookedly as he watched Aurelia blink her large eyes without being able to say a word. Aurelia had been right. “I should not have been able to refuse your offer, and yet I did it twice.” “I don't think it was twice.” At Aurelia's words, a small laugh escaped Leonard's lips. It was the first time in his life that he…

Chapter 28 Aurelia's daily life seemed peaceful at first glance. It already felt like a long time ago that she had performed on the stage of Symphony Hall. Thanks to that, Aurelia was able to return to her ordinary life faster than anything else. After finishing her day at the music academy, she would sit in her father's workshop and fill sheet music with notes. It was an ordinary daily life. Creating music of her own was much more valuable and rewarding than Aurelia had…

Chapter 27 She had not expected anything. She had thought it was not even worth expecting anything. Although she knew the performance would never be perfect, she had at least been willing to applaud when it was over. But Aurelia played her score perfectly, without making a single mistake. So perfectly that Leonard, who had been listening to Aurelia's performance with an indifferent expression, found his body leaning forward without realizing it. ‘This doesn't make any…

Chapter 26 Aurelia was sitting in front of a grand piano that looked as though it had been made using only the most expensive materials. As she ran her fingers over the keys alone and recalled what had happened in the waiting room, Aurelia took a deep breath. The silence of the Symphony Hall had been so complete that, after being left alone, it felt as though it would choke her. She had to endure it to suppress the unbearable irritation that silence had caused. ‘I know he did it…

Chapter 25 “If your reputation would be ruined just by performing one song, wouldn’t it be ruined even without something like this happening?” “Young Master Deimus, you are saying that because you are young and free from prejudice. Of course, I also think it is something worthy of respect, but from the perspective of the older musicians…” “So, do those senile musicians bring more money to the Symphony Hall than I do?” Of course not. No matter what country or city…

Chapter 24 “Was your previous experience uncomfortable? If there was anything that bothered you, please let me know, and I will take care of it.” “No, no. It’s fine. It’s not like that….” Aurelia hesitated for a moment, watching the usher’s reaction. The usher naturally assumed that Leonard would be performing. It was not easy to tell someone who thought that way that she was the performer today. “I’ll be the one performing today. Mr. Deimus will, um… be…

Chapter 23 At this point, it was obvious what Aiden was doing. He must have chosen a piece Aurelia was already familiar with, hoping to make things even a little easier for her. Still, Leonard did not like Aiden’s approach. No musician would be happy to receive sheet music that every pianist had played at least once. If Leonard were Aurelia, he would never choose such an overused piece to prove himself. “Do you even consider her a musician?” Leonard never thought Aurelia was…
