Chapter 135 What Just Happened?
Marion was genuinely angry, more so than when Sally made sarcastic comments about her in the past.
She had started learning the piano at the age of four, and her achievements that day were a result of her talent and hard work.
During her senior year of high school, to balance her studies, she would sleep at midnight and wake up at five in the morning to practice the piano.
Even n
now, with her fame and success, she devoted no less than 30 hours a week to plano practice. Whether performing or competing, she never slackened her efforts.
She had diligently climbed the ladder in her beloved field, and now people were saying that all her honors were bought with money. They accused her of craving fame, daring to provoke Althea.
If they criticized her character or actions, she might not have been so enraged. But their dismissive remarks had negated twenty years of her hard work as they insulted her cherished talent.
As Marion spoke, her body trembled. It was the greatest injustice she had ever experienced.
After expressing her feelings, her eyes reddened.
Suddenly she felt Lucas take her hand and she instinctively looked at him. As she blinked, a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
“Lucas, I’m so angry!” she confessed. Truly angry.
Lucas was taken aback. He gazed at the tear in her eyes and his dark eyes clouded over. He raised his hand and embraced her. “Darling, go ahead and vent your frustrations.”
Marion was genuinely furious, and as Lucas held her in his arms, she was still shaking.
In truth, she did not care much about the online judgments. Back when Sally had dragged her into online controversies, and many people criticized her, she simply treated it as a spectacle.
But this time was different. They had casually tarnished her beloved career.
Lucas’s shoulder was warm and sturdy and filled her with his familiar scent of sandalwood. That gradually calmed Marion and brought her back to reality.
Being angry by herself was futile.
