Chapter 130
Then, everyone heard Bria’s words. “It’s your turn now, Aunt Jodie.”
On the stage, Bria smiled and looked at Jodie.
However, Jodie was looking at her blankly, still in shock. When she heard Bria call her, she could only stare blankly at her.
She looks confident, optimistic, and lively. She is nothing like she was in the Alston Residence. Moreover, what pitch was she singing in just now?
As Jodie counted inwardly, her face went pale when she realized the song’s pitch.
“Which song are you going to sing, Miss Alston?” One of the musicians asked as they were backstage.
Although they were asking Jodie, they were looking at Bria since they were amazed by her performance.
These musicians are men, so they should be looking at me. After all, men have always kept their eyes on me no matter where I went. However, a three-year-old has outshined me.
At that moment, Jodie was unhappy and shouted without thinking it through. “I’m going to sing the song with the highest note!”
When the musician heard her words, they were stunned. However, they soon found a song whose pitch was almost as high as Bria’s ending note. Then, they began playing their instruments while Jodie sang along. However, as she sang, she saw the expression of the crowd. Next, she heard a crooked voice surrounding the room. Whose voice is that? she thought. Only when she felt her throat hurt did she realize it was her voice! Her voice had cracked!
As soon as she realized this, she looked at the microphone in horror. Her mind was filled with the snarky comments and ignorance she had given Bria just moments before. I’m the humiliating one when I’ve been disgracing the other!
At that moment, her mind went blank as she stood like a statue on the stage. She knew she should run off the stage and disappear from the public eye, but she didn’t even have the strength to do so.
At this moment, Bria said to Julia on the stage. “Let’s sing together, Ma.”
Even Bria could tell that Jodie had sung off-key. Since she was here to support Amelie and not trying to humiliate Jodie, she pulled Julia’s hand and said.
When Julia heard her words, she stepped on the stage with confidence, and the duo started singing together.
Not far away, Leo had his eyes on Bria, who was standing on the stage.
autistic since she would hide far away whenever she saw him or a stranger nearby. However, looking at her bold, confident, smiling daughter who loved to sing and dance, he wondered if this was the Bria he knew.
At that moment, he suddenly recalled that Amelie had told him that Bria was suffering and in agony when she was at Alston Residence. It was at this moment when he saw the other side of Bria did he understand how Amelie felt when she told him that.
I almost ruined my own daughter’s lifet
Thinking about it, Leo felt like he was being slapped. He didn’t even dare look at Bria.
On the other hand, when Elyse saw Leo’s mixed expression, she was nervous and pinched herself underneath her sleeves.
Bria’s performance is outstanding. As her father, Leo will pay attention to Bria. This means that he will come in contact with Amelie! Once they know each other, he will know that she is Big Eyes!
