Anyway, Melissa had been dead for a long time.
These people weren't aware of the happenings in the Simons family.
Hence, it would be best if she said nothing. Even if others knew the truth, she would just say that they were nothing but mere assumptions.
Hence, a smile appeared on Stephanie's face. She said, "Sure, I'll give it a try."
Although she was not Melissa's daughter, Stephanie was treated as a daughter of a wealthy family after Melissa's death.
Over the years, she had attended several music, chess, calligraphy and art classes.
It was not a problem for her to play the piano.
However, it would be a problem if she was asked to perform other things.
Under the gaze of everyone, Stephanie walked towards the piano.
The piano was white. It had just been delivered over from Italy.
Stephanie placed her fingers on the keys and began to play.
The smooth musical notes sounded under her fingers. Stephanie closed her eyes. She was evidently immersed in her own performance.
She felt that she did pretty well. After the song was finished, she opened her eyes and waited to be praised by everyone.
However, the young, wealthy ladies next to her were all giggling with their mouths covered.
What was going on?
Suddenly, Stephanie felt that something bad was going to happen.
Sure enough, the woman in pink next to her said disdainfully, "I was just wondering how great Melissa's daughter must be at the piano, but I didn't know that you'd suck so bad. You play the piano like a primary school student."
Knowing how to play the piano and being able to play well were two different things.
Although Silvia had asked Stephanie to hone these skills, a child of a servant would always be the child of a servant.
Their presence and talent were just different from others.
Although Stephanie had put in a lot of effort to practice, she only started learning it at an older age. She could not be compared to these young ladies at all.
Margaret stood by the side and watched indifferently as others made jokes out of Stephanie.
Stephanie seemed to have felt Margaret's gaze. She instantly turned in the direction of the gaze.
When she saw Margaret, she was so angry that her entire body shook.
D*mn it! Did Margaret, this little b*tch see her being mocked by others?
This was unacceptable! Truly unacceptable!
Why did Margaret have such an amazing mother, while her real mother was just a servant?
"I've never heard Melissa play the piano before. It was said she was amazing at it, but now that I've heard her daughter's performance, I believe it's nothing to shout about," the woman in pink snorted.
"No one can pretend to be my mother's daughter." Margaret slowly walked towards them.
Her footsteps were as light as a fairy's.
The silver dress she was wearing radiated her mysterious presence.
In an instant, she had attracted everyone's attention.
Jealousy burned within Stephanie's chest.
"Who are you?" The woman in pink looked at Margaret warily.
Margaret curved up her lips and said, "You'll find out soon enough."
As she spoke, she slowly walked towards the piano. Then she sat down and elegantly placed her hands onto the piano.
"Who are you? This piano can't be played by just anyone." The woman in pink said grumpily.
Monique, who was standing by the side, could not help but frown.
In the past, daughters in big families were all very well-educated.
