This person was Hilbert’s assistant. Janet hesitated for a moment before replying, “We’ll see!”The so-call banquet was probably a dinner party to announce an heir. Moreover, Emily would probably be the main character of the night.“That’s great!” The assistant was pleasantly surprised. At first, he and Mr. Hilbert had given up all hope. Unexpectedly, she had given a ‘maybe’ response to their invitation.“I’m hanging up!” Janet could feel a strong, burning gaze stabbing into her back. So, she didn’t want to stay on the phone for long.“What’s up?” When Mason saw that she had ended the call, his long, powerful arm wrapped around her slim waist. His voice was bewitching and seductive. At the same time, his lips and his hands started restlessly roving over her body.“I-It’s nothing…” Before Janet could even turn her head, she felt a hand snaking under her pajamas. Blanking out for several seconds, she began to blush. “D-Don’t touch there…”The servant who was cleaning the corridor couldn’t help blushing a little when she passed by the room. Young Master Mason and Miss Jackson are at it again so early in the morning. They are so affectionate!…On the other side, Emily and Hilbert’s assistant were discussing the banquet at the Jackson residence. Many people would be attending the banquet. Moreover, Emily would have a role to play—she was going to perform a live piano recital so that everybody could get to know her again.At the moment, she was going through the rehearsal for the banquet. The piano Hilbert had given to her last time had been brought here too. Furthermore, the people present were being very accommodating and respectful to her. It made her feel like she was in a trance. For that reason, she felt as if she was walking on air.“Miss Jackson, are you happy with the lighting?”“Miss Jackson, what do you think about filming from this angle? Hilbert will be hiring a group of photographers and videographers during the banquet!”“Miss Jackson, what do you think of the piano placement? Will it affect your playing?” For a moment, the staff were all trying to get her attention. Then, a sense of pride and arrogance surfaced in her heart as she dreamed about the banquet on Saturday. She was looking forward to it. Right now, I have only been recognized by Hilbert. Even so, everybody is already acting so respectful to me. I wonder how much more they will fawn over me if I truly become the heir to the Yobril Royal Academy of Music.“Miss Jackson? Miss Jackson?” The staff called out to Emily repeatedly, but she didn’t answer them. Instead, she stood there in a daze, daydreaming about something. In the end, one of the staff went up and tapped her on the shoulder.Thus, she jumped in fright when the person approached her from behind. A blank look of confusion flitted across her eyes. “What?!” she asked, feeling displeased. She didn’t seem to care about whether or not people were watching her from the sidelines.“Mr. Hilbert said that your choice of song is not very good. He wants you to go back and choose another song as our opening song!” the staff reiterated what Hilbert had said.Upon hearing those words, Emily scowled. What’s wrong with that music piece? What’s wrong with my original song? Just who on earth has such bad taste? Despite the thoughts swirling in her heart, she outwardly nodded and responded that she would make a new selection. The staff seemed like he was about to say something else, but she waved her hand and said impatiently, “Alright; I got it!” What right does a measly staff have to teach me anything? What a joke!At that moment, Hilbert watched Emily with a calm gaze from where he stood at a corner of the hall. Then, he sighed. Unintentionally, his assistant piped up, “Miss Jackson looks like somebody who can’t control herself!”“We’ll see!” Hilbert had always prioritized ability above all else. He was not interested in what sort of people they were in their daily lives as long as they did not encroach on his boundaries.… Saturday had arrived. Hilbert had booked the most upscale hotel in Sandfort City—Leaping Dragon Hotel—as the venue for the banquet. He had gone so far as to book the entire main hall. The main hall was brightly lit, and there was a cheerful and exciting atmosphere everywhere. The Yobril Royal Academy of Music was famous within the music industry. Moreover, the heir he had chosen this time around was the second daughter of the Jackson Family. Therefore, the guests attending the banquet were all bigshots.
