Chapter 70 Joshua Quinn
A lengthy silence ensued before Madison commented, “Mr. Miller sure knows what he’s doing.”
Crystal snatched the phone back.
No matter how many questions Madison bombarded her with, she wouldn’t reveal any details.
She couldn’t bring herself to tell Madison that they didn’t have sex even though Henry had spent much time with her during last night’s session.
Just as Madison was about to make fun of her friend, a certain piece of news was broadcasted on the screen inside the cafe.
The famous pianist, Joshua Quinn, had returned to the country for a tour across a few major cities.
The lively scene was crowded with many reporters.
Madison snorted. “Joshua Quinn, the pride of Chanaeans. He has many fans, and his concerts are difficult to attend. Who would’ve thought he was a poor brat who couldn’t even. pay rent twenty-five years ago?”
Naturally, as a pianist, Crystal knew who Joshua was.
She admired him. Since she was a student, her teachers had commented that her playing style resembled Joshua’s.
Hearing that delighted her because Joshua was a prominent figure.
When she heard the news about him again, she could feel her passion for playing the piano coursing through her veins.
Maybe Henry’s suggestion is right. Perhaps I should study in the Kingdom of Brundela after all this is
over.
Upon noticing the distracted look on her friend’s countenance, Madison asked, “What’s the matter, Crystal?”
“It’s nothing.” Crystal smiled.
Turning to the screen, Madison abruptly commented, “Did you notice Joshua’s
umbidextrous like you, Crystal? How rare.
Upon returning home in a cab, she lay on the couch and called Henry. The phone rang for a long while before he picked it up. “Are you coming back tonight?”
Henry chuckled. “Was last night so amazing that you want more today?”
Crystal’s face turned red as she kept quiet.
Standing on the second-floor balcony of the Miller Residence, he brushed his finger past a white curtain and continued, “A friend of my dad has returned from the Kingdom of Brundela. He’ll be here soon, so I can’t join you tonight.”
Kingdom of Brundela? What a coincidence! Joshua is returning from there as well. Crystal beamed. “Give him a warm welcome, then.”
Henry nodded. He was about to say something when someone shouted at him from behind.
He turned around and spotted a cool, elegant middle-aged man staring at him.
Upon bidding Crystal goodbye, he hung up the call. “It’s been a while, Mr. Quinn.”
Indeed, the man was Joshua, a close friend of David for many years.
