My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 463

There was nothing he couldn't do!

What an arrogant brat!

Marissa smiled at Henry. "I've long heard that Henry is an all-around genius, the rare kind who only appears once in a hundred years. No matter the subject or skill, he can learn it in an instant. I also heard that he is well-versed in all kinds of martial arts."

Henry pretended to be humble and said, "Aunty, you're flattering me. I can't say that I know everything, but I do know how to play the piano, guitar, drum, violin and cello. I also know football, table tennis, swimming, golf, wrestling and boxing."

Everyone gasped. Henry was only in his early twenties. Was he really as good as he claimed?

"All-round genius?"

Jordan was also curious about this person. To be honest, the term "all-around genius" was also frequently used to describe Jordan. He had undergone all kinds of training from a young age. Basically, he knew everything Henry had listed earlier. Could it be that Henry had undergone the same kind of demonic training?

Henry glanced at the piano in the courtyard and looked at Lauren.

"Ms. Lauren, let me play something on the piano for you? You can choose any piece you want. I can play it!"

Lauren was also shocked by this seemingly omnipotent person. She replied politely, "Today is my grandfather's birthday. You should let him choose."

"I don't know much about music. Henry, just play any song," said Martin.

Henry nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll just play "The Well-Tempered Clavier" by Bach!"

Heading over to the piano, Henry sat on the black stool. He placed his hands on the keys and his fingers started dancing.

It was the Prelude and Fugue in C minor. It was a piece for a Grade 10 piano exam, and it was quite challenging.

Many people were praising him.

"This kid's piano skills are not bad. He is at the Grade 10 level!"

"He is playing pretty fast, but it just sounds like a buzzing noise. Like a bunch of bees in the yard. Not very soothing to the ears."

"That's right. I think he just knows how to play the piano very fast. He has zero emotion! He can't move me!"

"That's enough. Lie's an all-rounder and knows everything. The piano is not his main skill. He's already very outstanding to be able to reach Grade 10!"

The song ended a few minutes later. Everyone applauded him.

However, as the saying went, there was a difference between being good and being great. He had chosen a classical tune by Bach and he couldn't move all the guests with such a classical piece.

Although these guests were from the upper class, not everyone knew how to appreciate the arts. Some upper-class folks knew how to listen to classical music, admire artwork and savor red wine. However, not everyone from the upper class had reached those levels of sophistication. Therefore, some only felt that the piano piece was boring.

'These fellows are so cold to my piano music. A bunch of tasteless fools’ I might as well have played some trashy pop song!'

After performing the piano piece, Henry turned to Martin. "Mr. Howard Sr., I like basketball too. Shall I perform a slam dunk for you?"

"Slam dunk? Great! Someone, prepare a basketball hoop for Mr. Zeller," Martin instructed.

Everyone was also curious. Henry was only about 1.8 meters in height and not considered very tall. Few people could play basketball well at that height. Many of them couldn't even touch the hoop.

"This fellow has chosen skills that I'm good at."

Jordan found it interesting. He did not expect himself to be so similar to Henry Zeller.

Soon enough, the staff had erected a standard basketball frame for Henry in the courtyard.

Holding a Spalding basketball, Henry approached Lauren with a smile.
