At the Chapman residence, Hera was seated in a room in front of the piano.
As she anxiously looked at the middle-aged man in the room, she said, “I'll be joining the piano competition's preliminaries. Mr. Underwood, I still haven't thought about which piece to perform.”
Coincidentally, the international piano competition was located in Lake City, so all the best pianists had flocked to the city.
There would always be someone better than her.
Although Hera had won some awards in the past, there were plenty of master pianists in the world. Thus, she was rightly nervous.
Moreover, she knew quite a few of the master pianists who were about to join the piano competition, such as Olivia from the Warhol family.
“Just play the piece I taught you—Sounds of Ranging Winds. That piece is one of its kind, and as long as you master it, I'm sure that you'll be able to get a place in the rankings,” Michael confidently cheered Hera on.
He was an international piano teacher who had many students.
The Chapman family had spent big bucks to hire him to guide Hera. Hence, he gave Hera one of the pieces he had gotten a few years before to perform.
Bob Chapman, who was Hera's paternal grandfather, was famous in the world of piano. Hence, Michael was thrilled to find out that he was going to be teaching one of the Chapmans.
It seems like the rumors are true in that the Chapman family is slowly losing their power... Still, they're rather rich.
Nevertheless, Michael intended to teach Hera properly. Although she was not overly talented, she was better than the other participants.
The difficulty level of Sounds of Ranging Winds would allow her to win against ninety percent of the participants. With his guidance, Michael was sure that Hera would be able to make swift improvements.
Even if she could not perform the piece as wondrous as he, she could still show the audience the intensity of the piece.
Therefore, Michael was sure that Hera would be able to at least make a name for herself at the international piano competition with the quality of her performance.
