Chapter 309
At the international concert hall in Ascrialia… This was Dew’s last concert abroad. She wore a black silk gown with pearls and gems inlaid on the black fabric. Her dress was sparkling under the chandelier. She sat on the stage, her back straight and poised. Her slender fingers flew over the keys on the piano.
She could feel all the audience’s gazes were fixed on her as if she was the center of the world…
They gave her a round of applause when her song ended. Dew stood up and bowed. As she slowly looked up, she suddenly felt an intense gaze staring at her. She instantly looked up at the audience and found a familiar face. ‘That’s Mrs. Winters, Duke’s mother. I’ve only seen her a couple of times. ‘The first time we met was when George and Harold turned hundred days old. The second time was when we celebrated their twins’ birthday for the first time.
‘I’m sure of it; I’ve not seen Mrs. Winters for three years. What are the odds of us meeting again at the International Concert Hall…?’
Dew hurriedly tried to recall if she embarrassed herself on stage earlier.
‘My performance earlier was perfect. That’s good. Mrs. Winters wouldn’t be able to notice any of my flaws… She smiled a little at Mabel. “Aunt Mabel, do you know the young female pianist on the stage?” Catherine asked curiously. Mabel nodded. “I wasn’t able to recognize her earlier on. But after she smiled at me, I remembered, She’s the mother of my two grandsons.” Catherine was stunned, “Ms. Daugherty is surely gorgeous and elegant.” Mabel was indifferent toward Catherine’s remark about Dew.
‘She does look naturally beautiful. Sure enough, George and Harold’s facial features are as gorgeous as hers.
