Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 553

Chapter 553

However, Sylvia was a frequent listener of Thomas’s piano-playing, and he had also played this song for her before. Be it the playing or the tune, Thomas felt a lot more natural compared to Lily, so Sylvia lost interest after a while. She picked up her plate of snacks and continued munching. 

It was then that a tall figure appeared on her left. 

Startled, Sylvia looked up at the figure, and before she could show any proper reaction, the figure sat down beside her. 

The entire hall was dark, and the only spotlight was on Lily and her piano, so it took Sylvia quite a while to recognize the person beside her. 

“Thomas?” she asked in a small voice. 

“The one and only,” he said. Sylvia was baffled by his arrival. “What brings you here?” 

“Lily and I were classmates. She invited me here,” he said. 

Sylvia nodded in realization. 

There were no more questions from her, and Thomas also quietly enjoyed the recital. He did not speak a word after he explained his arrival. After Lily finished playing the song, the crowd applauded. Lily stood up and elegantly bowed at the applauding crowd while being highlighted by the spotlight. Then, Master Springsteen’s voice sounded from the dark. He delightfully said, “The ball is starting soon, but before that, is there any young gentleman who would like to have a dance with my granddaughter? 

“It might sound surprising, but my granddaughter has never gotten a boyfriend, and I wish that she will find her Mr. Right soon. So, would any young man like to give her a chance?” 

“Grandfather?” Lily shyly shot a glance at her grandfather. Many young men among the crowd started murmuring and voicing their excitement. “It’s my pleasure to be able to have a dance with Ms. Springstreen!” “Ms. Springteen’s recital was melodious and I admire her talent!” 

The young men among the crowd grew excited as every one of them wanted a chance to have a dance with Lily. 

Lily stood quietly but a hint of disdain flashed deep in her eyes. She looked down on all the caper young men combined. She then had a glance at the butler behind her. 

The butlet rated the inicrophone and said, “Thank you for your admiration of our Ms. Lily. veryone Lach and every young gentleman is outstanding in your own way, and it is difficult 

to pick just one for the dance. “Here, I would like to suggest a little game: the spotlight will randomly move around, and when Ms. Lily says stop, the spotlight will pick the lucky gentleman for the dance.” 

“Great!”
