Upon hearing Jaelynn's words, everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Martha swallowed nervously and hesitantly glanced at the stunning Sylvia. "Could it be her?"
"It's highly unlikely... The Hipps family can be saved just like that? How could it be her, so young?" Maritza muttered under her breath. "She looks like nothing more than a pretty face..."
"Just an internet celebrity, how could she possibly save the Hipps family? Jaelynn, are you mistaken?" Annika reached out to tousle her wavy hair, looking skeptical.
Seeing the three sisters still wearing their disdainful expressions, Jaelynn smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything more.
She didn't want to become like Chaya and Niamh, so... she decided to be cautious with her words.
Especially since she had the lowest status among the four sisters.
She was an orphan, her parents sacrificed themselves in some exercises, and she became a child adopted by the Hipps family. Her parents used to be subordinates of Old Mr. Hipps.
In return for their sacrifice, they provided her with food and supported her through college.
There was a fundamental difference between her and the children of the Hipps family relatives.
Although they played together most of the time, Jaelynn kept her guard up when it came to Sylvia.
At this moment, Old Mrs. Hipps was radiant. She wore a dark red Tang suit and a string of emerald green beads around her neck, looking extremely elegant.
Old Mr. Hipps wore matching attire with her. It was clear that these two outfits came from the same brand or designer.
They hadn't been this happy in a long time.
They greeted their relatives to take a seat while enthusiastically introducing Sylvia.
"Our Sylvia is not only beautiful but also a designer! Did you see? The clothes we're wearing were designed by Sylvia herself."
"She's a designer?" a middle-aged man asked curiously.
"Yes! She's a fashion designer and a jewelry designer. Her jewelry designs are highly sought after!" Old Mrs. Hipps was so excited that she sounded just like the old ladies at the village entrance boasting about how much money their granddaughters made.
"Oh, impressive!" Although the middle-aged man didn't know who X was, he continued to compliment Sylvia to please Old Mrs. Hipps.
"That's right, she's talented in many areas. She can even play the piano. Our family used to have a famous piano prodigy named Yan Jin... Luckily, Sylvia is also a piano prodigy." Old Mrs. Hipps mentioned her poor daughter and her eyes turned red. She awkwardly turned her face away.
Just then, Louis walked over with a smile, holding up a wine glass. "Grandma, Sylvia is my apprentice. I've already passed on my position as the head of the association to her. Unfortunately, she's too lazy to come and take over."
Some of the relatives who had looked down on Sylvia before, thinking she was just a small-town girl like Larro who hadn't seen the world, were shocked when they heard Louis personally admit that Sylvia was his apprentice and the future president of the Global Piano Association...
Suddenly, everyone looked at Sylvia in astonishment.
They even began to doubt the authenticity of this matter for a moment.
Jaelynn heard this and looked at Sylvia with envy.
Not only was she beautiful, but she also had such a great mentor to teach her piano.
Now that she had returned to the Hipps family, Sylvia would undoubtedly be showered with love and affection.
Maritza sneered, "It's just piano playing. It's not like it's something extraordinary."
"Yeah, Maritza, didn't you win second place in the Aettosa Piano Competition this year? That's a national award. Why don't you show off your skills?" Martha tried to encourage Maritza to steal the limelight.
Annika also smiled and said to Maritza, "Yeah, why not perform together? Let's make a grand entrance."
After all, Annika had won first place in the national piano competition last year!
It was a tradition for daughters of the Hipps family to learn how to play the piano. Only a few exceptions were made for those who didn't like it or lacked talent.
After all, they had Madeleine, the piano prodigy of their family, and Clare, the globally renowned piano master.
If the younger generation didn't learn how to play the piano, it would be an insult to the word "piano."
Martha and Jaelynn could also play the piano, but only superficially. They didn't have much talent for music compared to Maritza and Annika.
"Do both of you want to perform? How about Sylvia joins you?" Martha said loudly to Old Mrs. Hipps. "Grandma, Annika and Maritza want to perform a piece for everyone since today is Sylvia's return to the Hipps family."
With Martha's words, Maritza and Annika found themselves in a difficult situation and looked at Martha with embarrassment.
"What's your name?"
"If you're too shy to speak up, I'll help you!" Martha laughed carefree.
Jaelynn couldn't help but smirk at this scene. "Martha is right. If you're going to do it, do it confidently. Don't be timid. Go ahead."
Maritza clenched her teeth in anger. She hadn't even thought about what piece to perform yet!
Now she had attracted everyone's attention.
Under Old Mrs. Hipps' suspicious and displeased gaze, Annika put on a warm smile and said, "Grandma, we will be sisters with Sylvia from now on... We want to perform a piece together. Is that okay?"
Under Old Mrs. Hipps' stern gaze, Annika felt as if she had been stripped naked and seen through completely. It seemed like all her little thoughts had been exposed.
