Chapter 274
Her phoenix eyes were clear and bright with a hint of puzzlement. “Why did you call for me?”Hilbert was stunned by her series of actions that were done in one breath. When he finally came to his senses after a few seconds, he explained, “Are you really not considering the Royal Academy of Music in Yobril?”He attempted to fight even further since no one in the high school was able to fulfil his expectation earlier.Janet narrowed her eyes and shook her head. “No.”“Sigh, if you have better choices, we will respect your choice.” There was a faint disappointment in his tone.After watching the video of her performance again yesterday, he felt that the girl’s talent in music was much more than what she had revealed.If she joined the Royal Academy of Music in Yobril, she would have an immeasurable future in the field of music.She softly hummed to affirm her decision.“This is my contact number. Keep it. You can look for us anytime if you change your mind.” Hilbert handed his name card to her with his admiration for her in his eyes. “I hope to hear some good news.”Janet took the card with her fair slender fingers and nodded. “Thank you.”With that, she turned and left the meeting room.The students had been anxiously staring at the movement in the meeting room from outside.Upon seeing Janet exiting, Abby immediately stepped forward. “Janet, why did they call you?”Janet lifted her eyes and glanced at the meeting room before replying, “It’s nothing. They called me in for fun.”“Oh,” Abby doubtfully responded.Emily, who was at one side, heard Janet’s words and her nervousness finally eased. She found it exhausting to be wary of Janet all the time.In the meeting room, Hilbert’s expression was a little strange.“Sir, what should we do now?” His assistant quietly asked. They would suffer a huge loss if they failed to recruit any talent after making a grand appearance at Star High School. Sweet Tune is really arrogant—she has actually rejected Mr. Hilbert’s invitation twice in a row.Hilbert pursed his lips and did not reply.At that moment, a student entered the meeting room. He raised his eyes and gazed at Emily opposite him.“Mr. Hilbert, we have met before.” Emily had a faint smile on her face, looking meek and amiable.He nodded and pointed at the piano behind him before casually uttering, “Miss Emily, you may begin your audition with the piano.”Upon hearing that, she cast a glance at the piano behind while her eyes instantly brightened. “Sure.”She then walked up to the piano and took her seat. After that, she took a deep breath to control her breathing.After a few seconds, a clear and melodious sound was heard from the meeting room.The assistant glanced at Hilbert and remarked, “This sounded like a self-composed piece.”Hilbert nodded and looked at his assistant beside him. “What do you think about her?”The assistant did not dare to make any comments since he wasn’t from the music industry.Hilbert smiled. “Speak with courage.”The assistant impassively turned to the teenage girl, who was playing the piano in front of them, and replied calmly, “It’s not bad, but I think something is missing.”Hilbert nodded in agreement. “That’s right. It’s the lack of… emotions.”It was a common weakness in music students who were 18 or 19 years old, but it wouldn’t be difficult to rectify it.Upon seeing that Hilbert didn’t stop her, Emily’s fingers continued to dance on the keys.She was a little nervous; she kept thinking whether she was performing to perfection.After a while, he slightly narrowed his green eyes before calmly saying, “That’s enough.”She stepped away from the piano when she heard his voice.He glanced at Janet, who was outside, before looking at Emily. “Your college entrance exam is around the corner, right?”“There’s still a month or so to go.”“Then, you should prepare for your college entrance exam in Sandfort City while practicing your piano skills.” After saying that, he swung the pen in his hand. “Follow me to Yobril after your exam.” Emily was astonished to hear that before being rooted in the spot for a long time. She could not believe that Mr. Hilbert had selected her. “Thank you, Mr. Hilbert. I’ll practice my piano skills in this period of one month. I definitely won’t let you down.”
