Revenge Looks Good on Me (Amelia and Sebastian) novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243 The Maestro

Nora had heard plenty about Amelia’s scandals and already disliked her.

Finished

She sneered at Amelia. “You might be a Bennett, but considering how you just insulted Sophia, I have no choice but to have you thrown out!”

Two bulky bodyguards immediately rushed in from the doors, ready to drag Amelia away.

“Mrs. Vane, since when is it illegal to point out someone’s terrible piano skills?” Amelia stood perfectly relaxed, a wild, cocky smile playing on her red lips.

“Amelia, I know you’ve always been jealous of me, but how can you question my musical ability?” Sophia stepped behind Nora, actually squeezing out fake tears.

Nora was furious. She glared at Amelia and shouted, “Who gave you the nerve to act like a lunatic in my house?! You don’t know the first thing about music, so what gives you the right to question Sophia?!”

“The fact that she is my fiancée gives her the right.”

A deeply magnetic, commanding voice echoed from the entrance. The crowd literally shivered, whipping their heads toward the door.

Sebastian was dressed in a sharp black suit. The piercing coldness in his deep eyes was magnified by his gold–rimmed glasses, radiating an aura so terrifying the crowd instinctively backed away.

Sebastian never attended music galas! Why the hell was he here today?!

“And the fact that she’s my biological sister!” Alexander announced, limping forward on his crutch.

“Exactly! She’s my sister too!” Julian added.

“If you bully Amelia, you’re declaring war on the Bennett family!” Lucas warned fiercely.

The three Bennett brothers flanked Sebastian like elite bodyguards. The crowd watched in absolute shock.

They had never heard of the Bennett brothers treating Amelia well. In the past, they wouldn’t even bring her to banquets, and whenever she was mentioned, they looked disgusted. What the hell changed?!

Sophia’s face was the ugliest in the room. The Bennett brothers used to treat her like a fragile princess. Why were they all suddenly standing behind Amelia like a brick wall?!

Sebastian closed the distance in a few long strides, stopping right in front of Nora, his eyes radiating pure frost. “Mrs. Vane, my fiancée is questioning the music. Do you have a problem with that?”

The suffocating pressure made Nora tremble physically. She opened her mouth but couldn’t form a sentence.

This Sterling kid… he’s getting more terrifying by the day!

“Sebastian, my mom didn’t mean it like that! Amelia, please get on stage and play something for us. Let us all open our eyes, thanks to you.”

Felix desperately jumped in to smooth things over. If the Shadow King got mad, everyone at this gala was screwed. Plus, he had seen with his own eyes how insanely obsessed Sebastian was with his fiancée.

Nora was clearly shaken. Seeing her son frantically signaling her, she quickly nodded. “Since you’re questioning the result, please, take the stage and perform a piece for us!”

Getting the answer he wanted, Sebastian’s expression softened. He took Amelia’s hand and led her to the stage. “Go ahead.”

Once Amelia stepped onto the stage, the heavy velvet curtains dropped, completely hiding her from the audience.

Eudora grumbled in annoyance. “What the hell is she doing now? Is she trying to embarrass us again?!”

Sophia clenched her fists, grinding her teeth. “Mom, she is definitely going to embarrass the family. I’ve never heard of her playing an instrument in her life!”

She’s completely faking it. She just wants the attention. I can’t wait to watch her humiliate herself!

Suddenly, all the lights in the banquet hall went pitch black. The crowd murmured in utter confusion.

Whoosh!

The curtains ripped open. A fiercely sharp, electrifying screech of a bow tearing across strings shattered the silence, echoing violently through the hall.

A single, dim spotlight hit the stage. Amelia stood there in a flowing red dress, holding a sleek black electric violin. Her pale, slender fingers flew across the fingerboard as she aggressively drew the bow. Screech-

A dark, heavy, incredibly intense melody exploded into the room. The sheer aggressive power
