When the Boss’ Lady Became His Sister-in-law (Kristin and Garner) novel Chapter 197

Chapter 197 

“What’s the deal? Where’s the planist?” A slight hiccup unfolded at the wedding venue. 

Such high–profile weddings were supposed to be flawless. 

But the pianist they had booked was none other than a renowned maestro, and now, due to an unforeseen heart attack, he had been rushed to the hospital, 

“What do we do? Does anyone here know how to play the piano? It’s too late to find someone now. The couple is about to walk through here, under a shower of rose petals. It won’t be the same without live piano music…” 

As anxiety spread among the crowd, the guests looked bewildered, 

The attendees were business moguls, celebrities, and fashion icons, mostly tagging along with the industry’s heavy hitters. 

But the complexity of the piano piece was daunting, and nobody wanted to botch the wedding – playing a coherent piece from sight–reading was no easy task. 

The bride was visibly upset as well – the meticulously planned segment was falling apart, and a recording just wouldn’t give her wedding that perfect touch. 

“Mind if I give it a shot?” Kristin asked gently, feeling a connection with the bride. 

“Are you sure you can handle it? Don’t mess up their big day,” someone skeptically interjected. 

“Who is she? Who brought her along?” 

“Looks like she’s with Rhett…” 

“I’ve heard she’s just an assistant. She knows how to play the piano?” 

Kristin didn’t respond. She simply wanted to help the bride. 

“I trust you, give it a shot,” said the bride, guiding Kristin to the piano. 

Kristin glanced at the sheet music and gently placed her slender fingers on the keys, pressing down with caution. 

Something was off with the sound. Kristin stood up to inspect the piano strings. 

“The tuning’s a bit off, I’ll fix it,” she murmured. 

“Is she for real?” 

“Ha… my bet is she doesn’t have a clue and is just making excuses.” 

Kristin ignored the murmurs. She had learned how to tune pianos back when she was in a penitentiary.

After tweaking the strings, she settled back onto the bench. 

What the crowd didn’t know was that Kristin was grateful to the Turner family for nurturing her talents before they knew her true identity. 

And Kristin was an exceptional talent, blessed not only with an amazing memory, but also a natural knack for the arts. 

As her fingers danced across the keys, the crisp sound of the piano filled the air. 

Rhett, who was deep in conversation, paused and instinctively turned to look at the piano. Then he saw Kristin play with so much ease and confidence, her inner glow shining through. 

Hanson and Felix, too, were stunned by the sight of Kristin. 

“She really shines, doesn’t she?” Felix teased Hanson. “Who was it that accused Rhett of being shallow for falling just for Kristin’s looks, saying she was nothing but a pretty face?” 

Hanson grunted, his gaze never leaving Kristin. 

Indeed, there was a strange magnetism about her that captivated the three brothers. 

Hanson had to admit, he was becoming genuinely interested in Kristin. 

“Who is she, a singer? She’s with Rhett, right?” the guests murmured among themselves. 

“Mommy! That’s my mommy!” Liam exclaimed joyfully, pointing at Kristin. 

The crowd was stunned – the mother of the Lewis family’s young heir? 

The woman who bore a child for the Lewis family and then vanished? 

Impressive… A woman tied to the Lewis family and Rhett was no simple character. 

The wedding ended perfectly, with the bride and groom walking slowly to the altar, accompanied by Kristin’s piano music.

Watching the couple, Kristin felt a bittersweet pang in her heart. 

It was a lie to say she didn’t envy them. Every women want to walk down the aisle with the man she loves, in the happiest and most beautiful moment of her life. 

As the groom kissed the bride, Kristin looked away, fighting back tears. 

She doubted she’d ever have a wedding of her own. 

Suddenly, Rhett was behind her, enveloping her in his arms. “What other talents are you hiding from me, huh?” 

Kristin managed a smile. “None… I just happen to play the piano, that’s all.”

On? You seem like quite the prodigy… Rhett held Kristin close. “With such a quick learner you should get some tips from Harriet.” 

Kristin blushed, replying without thinking, “Why don’t you learn?” 

After her words, Kristin felt her legs weaken. She was getting too bold, daring to suggest her benefactor learn such things. 

Rhett’s eyes narrowed as he teased, “Are you saying I’m not trying hard enough?” 

Kristin stammered in fear, “No, no, I didn’t mean that.” 

Rhett chuckled and, taking Kristin’s hand, led her away. 

The bride was deeply grateful to Rhett and Kristin, and before leaving, she presented Kristin with a lavish gift. 

Kristin was delighted – it was her first time receiving a wedding favor as a guest. 

“The bride is so thoughtful,” Kristin remarked, unable to resist peeking at the gifts, all carefully chosen by the bride. 

“And what favors do you plan to give at your own wedding?” Rhett asked, playing with her fingers and inspecting her hand. 

Her fingers were so delicate; they would need a custom ring design. 

Holding Kristin’s ring finger, Rhett sent the measurements and a photo to a renowned jeweler.
