The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193 

“Mom, I’m fine.” Yolanda said, “It’s my fault for not remembering the name of her song” 

“Just because you forgot the name of the song, she had no right to embarrass you in front of everyone! You even achieved second place!” Olga glared angrily at the retreating figure of Jasmine, “She even criticized your outfit and jewelry for not suiting you. who is she to decide? We’re rich, what’s wrong with buying clothes and jewelry from Queen Abby?” 

“Mom, let’s go.” Yolanda didn’t want to stay here any longer and be the laughingstock. 

“She doesn’t want to take disciples, we’re not even interested in being her students!” Olga took Yolanda’s hand and returned to the audience, complaining all the way, “Everyone knows that the best planist now is Leonard, we’ll look for him to be our teacher later!” 

Yolanda wanted to say that there were already too many people wanting to become Leonard’s disciples, not to mention her, even Serena, whom Leonard wouldn’t even look at! 

But she didn’t say anything at that moment, and returned to her seat, quietly feeling a bit sad. 

Just then, Attlee’s friend Leo Bright curiously asked, “Mrs. Murphy, I noticed from afar that President Jasmine was chatting with Yoli in the aisle. Did President Jasmine take a liking to Yoli? Does she want to take her as her disciple?” 

Because of the distance, Leo Bright couldn’t see clearly, only knowing that a crowd was surrounding them, and that they were chatting about something. Yolanda was already feeling embarrassed, and with this question, her expression became even harder to hide, as the situation was extremely awkward. However, Olga just laughed, “Oh, President Jasmine did have this intention just now, but in this industry, the best is Leonard, so I told Yoli to think about it and not to rush to agree with her.” 

Leo Bright was surprised that they were so ambitious. He laughed and said, “To be able to catch President Jasmine’s eye proves a high level of piano skill. My daughter has been learning piano for many years. I’ve used many connections to try and get President Jasmine to give guidance, but President Jasmine didn’t agree. Yoli can make President Jasmine take notice of her, that’s really something!” 

“Yoli got second place, our daughter only got fifth; how can you compare with her?” Leo Bright’s wife laughed and said, “Yoli is so excellent, she probably has a high chance of catching Leonard’s eye in the future.” 

Olga, who was up until now in a bad mood, brightened up again after hearing this. 

“After the presenter finishes the opening speech, the top eight competitors will all have to perform their pieces on the stage. Yoli must perform well, maybe Leonard will be impressed by the playback of today’s stage.” 

“Good point!” On hearing this, Olga immediately nudged Yolanda, “Yoli, did you hear that? You must give it your best!” 

“I got it,” Yolanda was originally feeling down, but then her phone beeped with a notification of a message. It was a message from Zachary, and her mood instantly improved. 

[I’m among the audience, where are you?] 

Yolanda immediately stood up to look for Zachary, and when she saw him, she waved and called out, “Zachary, I’m over here!” 

After saying this, she immediately rushed over excitedly to meet Zachary. 

“Someone’s here?” Mrs. Bright was a little surprised, “Yoli seems really happy.” 

“Oh, it’s Yoli’s boyfriend, he’s here to cheer her on!” Olga didn’t expect Zachary to show up at this time, and her mood got even better.
